Horror Classics Always Have A Home In Stan Against Evil!

Published

on

All Hallow’s Eve is in our midst and that can only mean the return of IFC’s cult-hit horror comedy, Stan Against Evil!

Created by Dana Gould, the series stars John C. McGinley, Janet Varney, Nate Mooney, and  Deborah Baker Jr. This season boasts an impressive roster of guest stars including Scott Adsit as an apathetic demon-plumber named Bill, Maria Bamford as the stern, uptight Nurse Pickles and Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Zach, a character in a popular vampire show who has a special connection with Denise. Comedian David Koechner also returns this season as Kenny, Sheriff Evie’s self-absorbed ex-husband.

The third season begins right where the second left off, with Stan (John C. McGinley) still stuck in an inter-dimensional time loop with the dark sorcerer Gerard Duquette (Emmett Hunter) who may have more stake in the game than we realize. Sheriff Evie Barrett (Janet Varney) has been incarcerated in a mental institution after trying to explain the last season’s events to the authorities, and all seems to be going to hell for our heroes as the dark secrets of Willard’s Mill continue to unfold.

It goes without saying that this season of “Stan” is the best yet. It’s riddled with several winks and nods to many horror-themed TV shows and films. In the second episode, Stan and the gang are visited by two paranormal investigators who bear a strong resemblance to Scully and Mulder of The X-Files. In another episode, a killer puppet ala Child’s Play descends upon Willard’s Mill. Fans of the classic Toho monster movies are in for a treat as well, as a nod to a certain giant killer moth makes an appearance.

For as many terrifying moments this season boasts, there are equally just as many funny ones. Most of the hilarity generating from Deborah Baker Jr. as Stan’s daughter, Denise, and Nate Mooney as Deputy Leon Drinkwater. Christopher Mintz-Plasse is also quite good, displaying some of his previous vampire-themed skills in a nod to the 2011 remake of Fright Night.

The show’s leads, John C. McGinley and Janet Varney have terrific chemistry as always, with the character of Stan being put to the ultimate test when he is tasked with killing Constable Eccles to end the curse on Willard’s Mill. Filled with loads of laughs, a pinch of drama, and enough perfectly cheesy practical effects to satisfy the most die-hard horror fans, this third season of Stan Against Evil is not to be missed!

“Stan Against Evil” premieres October 31st at 10 PM on IFC.

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan.

His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland.
