REVIEW: The Exorcist / Scream Queens (FOX 2016)
The fall season is upon us and with it a treasure trove of horror content. It is amazing the amount of genre content available for horror fans on TV in 2016. Doc is joined by Gruesome Magazine writers Chad Hunt and Joey Fittos to discuss two shows that debuted on FOX this past week. Scream Queens is more of a comedy than horror but it contains ample amounts of blood and shocking content. And it also stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Emma Roberts, Keke Palmer, Abigail Breslin, Billie Lourd, Niecy Nash, Kirstie Alley, Taylor Lautner and John Stamos. And that’s just the beginning. On Friday night, FOX debuted its straight up horror offering, The Exorcist. The first episode is directed by Ruport Wyatt and features Alfonso Herrera, Ben Daniels, Alan Ruck and Geena Davis. And, believe us, FOX gets its scary on. Whew…
