I quite like the title Door In The Woods and the images it conjures up. In my head I had some kind of weird horror version of Monsters Inc. Where a door acted like some kind of portal to other worlds or maybe open our world to all kinds of beasts and monsters. There are endless possibilities, and while this film does, kind of, attempt some of these on a low budget, it maybe doesn’t have quite enough ambition.
For starters, the door doesn’t stay in the woods for very long. The central family in the story go for a hike and discover this door. They decide (well the mum of the family decides) that the door would be perfect for their house,...

The Shield, “Family Meeting”
Written by Shawn Ryan
Directed by Clark Johnson
Original airdate November 25, 2008
For seven seasons The Shield displayed some of the most vile people doing increasingly desperate things. As fascinating as it all was there was an understanding, even from the pilot, things just weren’t going to end well for the majority of the characters involved.
From the very beginning Vic Mackey (Michael Chiklis) was far from a good man: we’d watched him kill a fellow officer, set up a massive robbery, lie and manipulate Strike Team members who trusted him, and countless other crimes that were horrifying and unimaginable.
The final season of The Shield saw Vic scrambling to hang onto the very fragile world he’d created as old lies come to light. His ex-wife Corrine (Cathy Cahlin Ryan) has learned of his crimes and agrees to work with Dutch (Jay Karnes) and...

Once again, Kurt Sutter has revealed his bitter reluctance to let go of his days as a writer on The Shield. Though the former FX series ended back in 2008 and Sutter had moved on to starting up and running his own show on FX, he has been bringing back the stars of The Shield for little guest spots on Sons of Anarchy for years. At some point you just have to let things go. If Jack from Lost can learn to let go, certainly Sutter can finally release the death grip he has on the days he spent writing on The Shield. Alas, Sutter has brought yet another Shield alum to Soa.
I would recommend Sutter find some counseling before he starts asking Michael Chiklis to do a guest spot. In the meantime, Cch Pounder will be guest starting on Season 6 of Soa, reports EW. She’ll have a multi-episode arc as Tyne Patterson,...

Last Resort, Season 1, Episode 4: “Voluntold”

Ever since the premiere of Last Resort, the issues and factors that have affected the USS Colorado have all happened in quick succession. In the span of a week, the submarine’s crew have found themselves going from respectable members of American society to international criminals, caught between a rock and a hard place, and going up against an adversary who is not only much more powerful, but whose orders they unquestioningly obeyed until very recently. The death of Redman at the hands of Serrat has only served to heighten the tension, so a boiling point spillover was inevitable, and the Us government’s attempts to accelerate the process not exactly helping.

Last Resort, Season 1, Episode 1: “Captain”
Written by Karl Gajdusek and Shawn Ryan
Directed by Martin Campbell
Airs Thursdays at 8pm (Et) on ABC
FX’s cop series The Shield stands as a classic television show, giving viewers complex storylines, three dimensional characters that couldn’t be easily categorized as either good or evil, and performances by the likes of Glenn Close and Anthony Anderson that made people regard them in a new light. While this is show creator Shawn Ryan’s most well-known show, and deservedly so, he is by no means a one-trick pony; he subsequently went on to create two more excellent series in Terriers and The Chicago Code, neither of which, sadly, saw a second season. Thankfully for television fans, Ryan hasn’t gotten discouraged; rather, he’s gotten right back in the saddle, signing a deal with Sony even as The Chicago Code was on its last legs.

Are you still buzzing about the Season 2 finale of The Walking Dead? Good, because we are too. Well know that Season 3 is already in full bloom. Showrunner Glen Mazzara and his writing staff are outlining episodes 3.01 to 3.06 and they’ve pitched through episode 3.08, and once they’re approved the first eight episodes of season three will be written.
Mazzara took time out of prepping Season 3 to answer burning questions the press had about the Season 2 finale and what to look forward to in season 3. There are light spoilers ahead but nothing that would ruin the experience of next season. What follows is a compilation of two extensive conference calls with Mazzara about The Walking Dead that BuzzFocus participated in. There are Two pages of Q&A.

(Please Note: This article looks back at the entire run of The Shield, making occasional spoilers somewhat inevitable)
When The Shield first appeared out of the blue on March 12th 2002, many were quick to immediately dismiss it. On first glance it seemed like just another routine cop drama, featuring yet another cliché maverick cop who refused to play by the rules. The fact that it was on FX didn’t help either – a then low-key cable network with little experience in producing its own original drama and better known for showing re-runs of shows like Buffy The Vampire Slayer and The X Files. To make matters worse, for UK audiences the show ended up in a late-night slot on Channel 5, which back then still had a reputation for peddling softcore porn and dodgy films.

Every Halloween this reviewer needs to see a horror film everyday or every other day. Satisfying this horror fix is Michael Stokes' A Haunting at the Beacon aka The Beacon. This is a film released on DVD September 13th and starring are Teri Polo (Meet the Parents), David Rees Snell ("The Shield") and Michael Ironside. Haunting at the Beacon is perfect for this holiday of souls because the writing is tense, the characters are interesting and the climax made this reviewer look twice. It is hard not to look twice when you see Ironside snarling in icky green face paint.
Polo plays Bryn Shaw a woman dealing with grief and the loss of her son. Unfortunately, she picks a haunted apartment building to find solace. A young boy appears in a black and white photograph as a ghostly figure. Later, he sneers with devilish eyes.

So firstly something of an apology is due. For those following the coverage of Season 3 currently airing in the U.K on Five U.S, you’ll have noticed the reviews being mysteriously absent from the site over the last few weeks. Thanks to Channel 5s scheduling clashing with the U.S premier of the brand new season, the decision was made to focus on the new episodes rather than a season that first aired almost over a year ago.
With that out of the way, so begins our weekly coverage of FX’s brand new season of their superb biker drama – with Samcro’s prodigal son Jax Teller (Charlie Hunnam) planning to finally leave the club for once and for all. A mix of macho action and almost Shakespearian drama, Sons Of Anarchy continues to be an excellent show with gripping storyline and great performances...

I've been told that I succeeded on a few occasions and it makes me feel downright giddy. The other service I provide comes with a hint of sadness. That is the service of informing horror fans about films that are a potential waste of their time. Time that can be better spent on the abundance of great films that the horror genre has to offer. Haunting at the Beacon is one of those that comes with a warning. It's not a complete waste of time, but most of it is.
This ho-hum haunting opens with young couple Bryn and Paul Shaw (Teri Polo, David Rees Snell) moving to the Beacon Apartments trying to recoup from the loss of their 4 year old son.

Don't look now, but the fall TV season is about to kick off in a big way with the fourth season premiere of FX's Sons of Anarchy.
After three seasons of dealing with the Ira, fending off other clubs trying to hone in on their business, and attempting to navigate some especially tense inter-club politics, the boys (of Samcro) are back in town for another go around. Jumping ahead 14 months from the end of season three, season four picks up with the club being released from prison, into a world with no Stahl and no Jimmy O. It will, however, include guest appearances from Danny Trejo (Grindhouse), David Rees Snell (The Shield), and Benito Martinez (The Shield), among others. Rockmond Dunbar (Terriers) will be joining the cast as the new sheriff in town (literally), with Lamonica Garrett (Transformers: Dark of the Moon) playing his deputy.

New castings on FX’s Sons of Anarchy’s fourth season are leading to a reunion for some of the former actors of The Shield, starting with the season premiere. That first episode, which airs Sept. 6 with feature David Rees Snell (Det. Ronnie Gardocki on The Shield) playing an Atf agent investigating Samcro now that they’ve been let out of prison. The boys had better stay away from guns, booze and smoking while they have this guy sniffing his noise in their business.

In the second episode of the season, Benito Martinez (Capt. David Aceveda on The Shield) will be on the opposite side of the law compared to Snell. He’ll be the right-hand man of the Mexican drug cartel Samcro will be working with. I’m sure Martinez will have fun doing this role after playing law enforcement on The Shield for seven years.

Jason Wilkie (David Marciano) waits to die. He prays in Latin as the execution chamber is readied. The viewing room is full: members of his defense, the victim's family, prosecutor Zoe Landau (Jennifer Beal) and Cal Lightman (Tim Roth). When asked if he has any last words, Wilkie delivers a rhyme laying blame for the death of an 8 year old child on the Pied Piper, which isn't him. And to his horror, Lightman believes him. After a futile effort trying to stop the execution, Lightman watches helplessly as an innocent man is given the lethal injection. Tonight's Lie to Me (TV) was a reunion for The Shield (TV) with nearly all the guest cast being former Shield alums. I guess that's fitting, since the show runner also comes from that show. Immediately after Wilkie's execution, Lightman wants to reopen the file to find what he's missed, despite Zoe's objections. Then,...

Last night, several members of the cast of The Shield reunited on a special episode of Fox's Lie to Me. Those taking part are Benito Martinez, Catherine Dent, David Marciano, David Rees Snell, Cathy Cahlin Ryan, and Kenny Johnson.
The Shield was created by Shawn Ryan, one of the current executive producers of the Lie to Me Fox drama. He's also the husband of Cathy Cahlin Ryan.
Of the reunion episode, Ryan said, "It's just a fun alternate universe with all these people you're accustomed to seeing in a certain environment... It was different, but I think everyone was just really happy to see one another again. I think it meant more on a personal level even than a professional level. We had a very tight-knit group on that show, so to be able to reunite... was very nice."

Last night's "Lie to Me" was an old-fashioned kind of stunt episode, in which most of the notable guest roles were played by castmembers from producer Shawn Ryan's last show, "The Shield." So we got David Marciano as a convicted killer ready for execution, David Rees Snell as his brother, Catherine Dent and Benito Martinez as a victim's relatives, Kenny Johnson as a calendar photographer with a dirty secret, and Cathy Cahlin Ryan (wife to both Shawn Ryan and Vic Mackey) as a mental patient. Nice as it was to see so much of the old gang from Farmington all together...

Shawn Ryan may have stepped down as showrunner for the upcoming third season of 'Lie to Me' on Fox, but the executive producer still has a trick up his sleeve before he leaves. In tonight's episode, fans of Ryan's 'The Shield' can look forward to guest spots from five -- yes, five -- 'Shield' alums, according to TV Guide.
The episode centers around a married couple, played by Catherine Dent and Benito Martinez, who connect with Lightman and Zoe at the execution of the man accused of killing their son 17 years earlier -- only Lightman isn't so sure they're watching the right man die. That's when Ryan got to pull in some of his other friends. The trail leads to the executed man's brother (David Rees Snell) and ex-girlfriend (Cathy Cahlin Ryan), and ultimately to a photographer (Kenny Johnson).

Dr. Cal Lightman may have made a serious error, and the cast of "The Shield" are involved.
"The Shield's" Catherine Dent, Kenny Johnson, David Marciano, Benito Martinez, Cathy Cahlin Ryan and David Rees Snell will descend upon "Lie to Me" as guest stars for an upcoming episode.
This en masse casting coup is courtesy of "Lie to Me" executive producer Shawn Ryan, who snagged an Emmy for writing on "The Shield."
In the episode, Dr. Lightman (Tim Roth) witnesses the execution of convicted child murderer Jason Wilkie (Marciano), who he helped convict. But maybe Lightman made a mistake. The victim's aunt and uncle (Dent, Martinez) are targeted once again, and so Lightman questions Wilkie's younger brother (Snell) and ex (Ryan), which leads him to key suspect Malcolm Hessler (Johnson), a photographer.
The episode, title "Pied Piper," will air sometime next spring.

You got us, Lie to Me.
With a packed Monday night of television each week (Heroes, House, Dancing with the Stars, Gossip Girl), most TV Fanatic staff members have never seen this Fox drama.
But that will change for the episode "Pied Piper," as producer Shawn Ryan has recruited a slew of guest stars for the installment, all of whom are former cast members of The Shield; i.e. the best show in the history of television.
Ryan, of course, created The Shield, which ran on FX for seven seasons.
The aforementioned episode, airing in early 2010, focuses on Lightman and Zoe, as they wonder whether they sent an innocent man to prison nearly two decades earlier for murdering a young boy.

Chicago – All seven season of the Emmy-winning, groundbreaking “The Shield,” easily one of the best programs of the ’00s, have been collected into one absolutely gorgeous set for “The Shield: The Complete Series Collection”. This time of year usually produces several complete series sets to essentially re-sell already available programs to holiday shoppers. This is one of the best.
DVD Rating: 5.0/5.0
The 88 episodes of “The Shield” have been collection on 28 Dvds, beautifully housed in a 34-page bound anthology book filled with photos, quotes, and a special letter from Shawn Ryan. Purely from a packaging perspective, “The Shield” is one of the most beautiful sets that a TV fan could include on their shelf. Sometimes complete series sets are literally nothing more than the previous releases crammed into one box. That’s not the case here as the entire show has been lovingly bound like a book you want to read again.

Michael Stokes' film The Beacon , we've been informed, is now taking the moniker Haunting at the Beacon . That's revised sales artwork you see on the right - a contrast to what we had shown you in March . The film played to Paranoia Film Festival audiences around that time and it appears to still be seeking distribution. Teri Polo, David Rees Snell, Michael Urie and Michael Ironside star. You can watch the trailer right here ! An updated synopsis is below. Perhaps it's not Stokes' fault, but it seems that sales rep American World Pictures is trying to cash in on The Haunting in Connecticut 's success by tossing the "haunting" in the title. While trying to get their lives back on track after the disappearance and presumed drowning of their four year old son,...

Chicago – There was no better show on television in 2008 than FX’s “The Shield” and the seventh and final season is now available on DVD. The dark and often brilliant series about life lived in the gray area between right and wrong had its ups and downs over the course of six seasons but the seventh and final chapter in the life of Vic Mackey was stunningly perfect and I find it hard to disagree with Maureen Ryan of The Chicago Tribune, who is quoted on the cover of the recently released DVD set - “…the most brilliant series finale I’ve ever seen.”

We recently got word from the winner himself, Michael Stokes, that the entry he wrote and directed, The Beacon, took top honors for the weekend. Strange that we haven't heard much about this film, but that seems about to change thanks to the kudos handed out during Paranoia Fest. The Beacon’s leading lady, Teri Polo (pictured below), was also honored, winning the award for Best Actress.
A bit of plot has been provided by the filmmakers as follows: While trying to get their lives back on track after the loss of their four-year-old son, Bryn (Polo) and Paul Shaw (David Rees Snell) move to the charming old Beacon Apartments. Bryn begins seeing a ghostly little boy skulking around the building.
