My buddy Phil Nugent, who writes for the Onion's A.V. Club (among other places), often complains about genre movies and TV shows, saying that it's become harder and harder to avoid the question of "Why don't the protagonists just call the cops on their cell phones?" Munger Road tries to head this off at the pass early on: The four teenagers at its center spend the majority of the film in a remote location where no one can get any bars (in fact, at one point a character leaves said location "because I remember getting bars a few miles back"). It's a pretty nice nod to the modern realities of horror writing/filmmaking, and writer/director Nicholas Smith's debut feature isn't quite as adept at all aspects of its storytelling,...

Chicago – Local writer/director Nicholas Smith, who set and shot his lauded indie horror flick “Munger Road” in St. Charles, Illinois, has some undeniable talent. I think his debut gets a little lost in the final act but there is a lot to like about this little movie for even those with no connection to its Chicago roots. You’re going to be deluged with options this Halloween season for your horror-loving time. Take a trip to “Munger Road.”
Rating: 3.5/5.0
“Munger Road” has a little bit of everything. The great Dann Gire is quoted on the back of the case comparing the film to “Blair Witch Project,” “Halloween” and “Psycho” and Smith compares it to “Jaws” in one of the mini-featurettes included on the DVD. A film with such varied influences often falls victim to cluttered ideas and a lack of tonal consistency. And so it’s remarkable how deftly...

It seems that many rural towns in close proximity to train tracks -- especially train trestles -- have similar ghost stories. Teenage boys typically use these tall tales to scare the bejesus out of their dates. (Who says that chivalry is dead? Oh, but just you wait until when -- on separate occasions -- each boyfriend counts to three and leaves his respective girlfriend in the dust in order to escape presumed danger.) Munger Road's ghost story states that a bus load of kids were killed while their bus was stalled at a train crossing. Ever since that fateful event, the kind ghosts of the deceased kids have pushed stalled vehicles off of those very same tracks. I can only assume that a lot of vehicles just happen to stall out at that very location, because that is exactly what happens to Corey (Trevor Morgan), Joe (Brooke Peoples), Scott...

Director/writer: Nicholas Smith. Cast: Bruce Davison, Randall Batinkoff, Trevor Morgan, Brooke Peoples, Hallock Beals, Lauren Storm and Art Fox. Munger Road is an indie production from first time director Nicholas Smith. The film follows four college students as they try to frighten themselves on or near Halloween. Much of the film takes place during nighttime and the film is effective in creating suspense. Munger Road is also an homage to John Carpenter's Halloween for a variety of reasons. The Halloween settings, escaped killer and a character of authority acting as both a narrator and an investigator make this film almost a direct homage to this earlier horror classic. The film's story begins with four college students: Corey (Trevor Morgan), Joe (Brooke Peoples), Scott (Hallock Beals) and Rachael (Lauren Storm). They are heading out on a double date to a local set of train tracks. It was here that a tragedy occurred.

Thomas is about to realize just how much attention his sex appeal will get him — will he be the new Zac Efron?
Hollywoodlife.com spoke exclusively with actor Thomas McDonell about his role in Disney’s Prom, in which he co-stars with Aimee Teegarden of Friday Night Lights. The actor is full of charm and boasts Johnny Depp-like good looks that will definitely get him noticed by the girls!
Prom hit theaters on April 29 so we asked Thomas whether he went to his own prom before. He said, “Yes I went to my high school prom while I was at boarding school in Massachusetts . [The movie] was similar to my high school prom, in that it was a party where everyone was celebrating their school years together.”
Thomas explained that his character in the film has an “I’m so over high school” attitude as a result of a difficult childhood.
