iHorror Exclusive: Could The Walking Dead’s Daryl Dixon Be The Next Big Villain?

Published

on

Written by Patti Pauley

We’re about to be four episodes deep into possibly one of the most somber and compelling seasons of The Walking Dead to date and it doesn’t look like things are going to be “Easy Street” anytime soon for Rick and the gang. In tonight’s 90 minute season 7 episode 4 premiere entitled ‘Service’, Negan makes his way to Alexandria with the intention of taking whatever he damn well pleases from the group. This is the first time the gang, who is still grieving from the brutal losses of both Abraham and Glenn, encounter their new dictator. The promo for episode four (shown below) showcases Daryl in tow along with the saviors into Alexandria; also being the first time since he has seen his comrades since his imprisonment. Rumors are swirling that this being a lengthened episode, that we may be saying our goodbyes to another cast member. Well, I can’t say for certain I know that to be a fact. However, an inside source close with the actors on AMC’s hit show exclusively told iHorror to “get ready to fucken hate Daryl this season.”

Although not official, this inside source who has been spot on with me personally about future happenings within the series, including the deaths of Abraham and Glenn, recently let me in on how Norman Reedus’ beloved character Daryl Dixon “will eventually turn to the darkside and become one of the show’s most hated characters.”

That would be quite a mind fuck for fans of the motorcycle riding fan favorite of the series, if this indeed comes to pass.

In last weeks episode “Easy Street”, we saw Negan attempting to slowly break Daryl with dog food sandwiches and the looping of possibly one of the most annoying songs I’ve ever heard. Seriously, anyone could snap even after one listen. Even with an attempted escape, basically telling Negan to his face to go “fuck himself” by refusing to call himself the latter, and a serious ass-whoopin’; Daryl hasn’t faltered. That is until a picture of what was presumably his old buddy Glenn and the aftermath of his encounter with Lucille, was thrown in his cell with him to contemplate over. This is when we see  Daryl break down in tears alongside (thank fucks) a different track courtesy of Roy Orbison. He does believe in a sense, that he is absolutely responsible for Glenn’s horrifying death. As cleverly pointed out by iHorror’s father Anthony Pernicka, Daryl’s wounds may even signify his fate: “I think the wound on Daryl’s back… and the shirt cut in a line with tape down the center of his back is symbolic of Daryl losing his wings. Being caged and turning.”

So is it really that hard to fathom Daryl making a huge transition from hero to villain? Dwight was in his shoes once before, and look where he’s at. This little insider tidbit, although not officially confirmed by anyone over by AMC, may not happen tonight or even in the first half of the season. However whether it’s true or not, I think by the end of season 7, we’re going to see a very different Dixon than what we are used to. Stranger things have happened this year. Just look at the 2016 election.

Watch ‘The Burning’ At The Location Where It Was Filmed

Published

on

Fangoria is reporting that fans of the 1981 slasher The Burning will be able to have a screening of the film at the location where it was filmed. The movie is set at Camp Blackfoot which is actually the Stonehaven Nature Preserve in Ransomville, New York.

This ticketed event will take place on August 3. Guests will be able to take a tour of the grounds as well as enjoy some campfire snacks along with the screening of The Burning.

The Burning

The film came out in the early ’80s when teen slashers were being churned out in magnum force. Thanks to Sean S. Cunningham’s Friday the 13th, filmmakers wanted to get in on the low-budget, high-profit movie market and a casket load of these types of films were produced, some better than others.

The Burning is one of the good ones, mostly because of the special effects from Tom Savini who had just come off of his groundbreaking work on Dawn of the Dead and Friday the 13th. He declined to do the sequel because of its illogical premise and instead signed on to do this movie. Also, a young Jason Alexander who would later go on to play George in Seinfeld is a featured player.

Because of its practical gore, The Burning had to be heavily edited before it received an R-rating. The MPAA was under the thumb of protest groups and political bigwigs to censor violent films at the time because slashers were just so graphic and detailed in their gore.

Tickets are $50, and if you want a special t-shirt, that will cost you another $25, You can get all the information by visiting the On Set Cinema webpage.

Even for masters of horror like Eli Roth and Crypt TV, this is a monumental undertaking. However, if I trust anyone to change the way that we experience horror, it would be these two legends.

Ripped from the pages of Irish folklore, The Faceless Lady tells the story of a tragic spirit cursed to wander the halls of her castle for all of eternity. However, when three young couples are invited to the castle for a series of games, their fates may soon change.

So far, the story has provided horror fans with a gripping game of life or death that doesn’t look as if it will slow down in episode five. Luckily, we have an exclusive clip that may be able to satiate your appetites until the new premiere.

Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?
