Casting The Net Episode 180: Dark Harvest [Feat. Jen Johns]

What better way to celebrate Christmas . . . then by covering a Halloween horror movie!!! This week, I'm joined by my good friend and fellow horror fiend, Jen Johns, to discuss the latest from director David Slade (Hard Candy, 30 Days of Night, Hannibal) Dark Harvest. In a sleepy midwestern town in the early 1960s, there is an annual tradition where the teenage boys of the town are tasked with hunting down the demonic Sawtooth Jack. If one boy manages to stop Jack before he can enter the town church on Halloween night, his family will be rewarded with a new home in a more prosperous neighborhood. But if all the boys fail, the entire town will have to suffer. And when Ritchie, the younger brother of the previous year's winner sets out to hunt down Sawtooth Jack himself, he'll have to overcome more than a few hurdles, before even factoring in the chances of Sawtooth Jack tearing him to pieces, should he not prove to be a worthy competitor.
