Weapons was released on August 8, 2025. As soon as I saw the first trailer, I recognized Georgia and I immediately got to work. The school looked like the one in The Exorcist: Believer so I started looking around Tucker and found the school that way. I also looked at some of the nearby streets…… Continue reading WEAPONS (2025)

IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT (1988): SEASONS 5-8
Ok so it’s not a horror movie, but Sparta, Mississippi has more murders, kidnappings, cults, and voodoo activity than just about any small town I’ve ever seen. Following the exploits of the Sparta Police Department, In The Heat of the Night is one of my favorite shows to put on and play for background noise.…… Continue reading IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT (1988): SEASONS 5-8

FRIDAY THE 13TH, PART VI: JASON LIVES (1986)
Maybe I’m biased, since they filmed this one in Georgia in my hometown, but Jason Lives is far and away my favorite Friday the 13th. It’s funny, it’s clever, and it’s the only one to actually have Jason, in full hockey mask garb, slicing up counselors at a functioning summer camp. Plus it’s just really…… Continue reading FRIDAY THE 13TH, PART VI: JASON LIVES (1986)
HALLOWEEN II (2009)
Halloween II is special for being the first movie I can personally remember coming to film in my hometown of Covington. I knew Covington had been in The Dukes of Hazzard and In The Heat of the Night, and I had seen it in Friday the 13th Part 6 as well, but before Rob Zombie…… Continue reading HALLOWEEN II (2009)
DOCTOR SLEEP (2019)
I never in a million years would have guessed how much I would love a sequel to The Shining. I had not read the book when the movie was released, but I went to see it opening day anyway and I was blown away. I thought it was excellent, really well done by director Mike…… Continue reading DOCTOR SLEEP (2019)
GOOSEBUMPS 2: HAUNTED HALLOWEEN (2018)
3 years and even more script & title changes after the original, Goosebumps 2 returned to Georgia for filming. This time they came even closer to home, filming several scenes in my hometown of Covington. Like the first movie, I enjoyed it for what it was, even if it was noticeably lacking in any new…… Continue reading GOOSEBUMPS 2: HAUNTED HALLOWEEN (2018)
