Midsummer Screams and Fright Fest Dreams

The Nerd return with an extra long episode to recap an epic week of announcements! After attending the Midsummer Scream Convention, we have thoughts on the upcoming slate of Southern California pro haunts. Is the addition of new scare zones going to be enough to lift an uninspiring slate of IP houses at Horror Nights? Is the Legacy of Leatherface a must see attraction, or another retread of past gories? Is going all female for Universal Monsters: Eternal Bloodlines injecting fresh ideas into old IP, or is it a new coat of paint on the same old thing? And with Universal resting on their laurals, do Knott's Scary Farm and Six Flag's Fright Fest Extreme have a shot at the king this year? You'll have to listen to find out!Rated explicit for discussion of some violent scenes.
