Description

From the stick-straight pines of Bastrop to an iconic dinner table in a room full of animal carcasses, Central Texas is home to dozens of creepy scenes on the silver screen. To celebrate scary movie season, host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by City Cast Austin contributor Eric Webb to dish on what’s filmed here, and our local horror film and TV stars. And heads up, several Austin venues are showing scary movie series right now, like the Paramount Theatre, AFS Cinema, Hyperreal Film Club, and the Alamo Drafthouse. Plus, would movies like “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” installments or Robert Rodriguez’s portion of “Grindhouse” be eligible for a Texas heritage grant boost under the state’s new film incentives requirements?
