“ In Search Of Darkness- 1995-1999” Expands On Horror Films That Almost Happened

Fan-beloved and critically acclaimed, the IN SEARCH OF DARKNESS series returns to explore 90s horror with the decade’s final years, 1995-1999. It was both the beginning and end of something truly wonderful- the rebirth of the slasher and found footage, and the end of an era where VHS and Mom and Pop Video Stores were becoming phased out by the new DVD and large store chains, like Blockbuster. It was a beautiful and nostalgic time for horror.

Also, the age of the internet was rising and fooling folks into thinking horror movies were real. The good ol’ days of thinking the Blair Witch really happened, eh?

In addition to brand new interviews and commentary from actors, directors, and the voices of the horror community today, IN SEARCH OF DARKNESS is exploring some horror films that haunted Hollywood… but never happened. Like John Carpenter remaking the CREATURE OF THE BLACK LAGOON. Or Clive Barker and Mick Garris rebooting THE MUMMY. The ’90s were filled with tantalizing horror projects that promised to redefine the genre, but never made it past the script stage.

“In Search of Darkness: 1995-1999” reveals the untold stories behind the decade’s most intriguing unmade projects. Hear directly from the filmmakers, writers, and producers who fought to bring these visions to life, and discover what separates the projects that succeed from those that forever remain “what if.”
