Festivals are always exciting - new films, exciting debuts, new features from much-loved and established directors - it’s always a blast. But one of the most exciting things is to see the work of brand-new artists. New voices who have come to the scene loving film (particularly horror) and are eager to make their mark and add their perspective to the filmmaking world.
Honeycomb is the debut feature from just such a filmmaker. Avalon Fast brings us a story that is part The Virgin Suicides, part Lord of the Flies, with a dash of Yellowjackets thrown in for good measure. It’s the story of a group of girls who decide to disappear into the wilderness the summer after they graduate from high school. One of the girls, Willow, has discovered an abandoned house deep in the woods. “It was almost like it called to me,” she later explained.

Update 3:30 Pm: There have been last minute developments as ABC is finalizing its decisions on off-cycle 2022 pilots. Drama Will Trent, which had been garnering the strongest buzz since early summer, has started to cool off. While Will Trent and The Company You Keep both appeared likely to go series, with writers rooms already up and running on both, I now hear that this is still a real possibility but no longer a lock. There is a chance that only one of the two dramas makes it to series.
Meanwhile, as we predicted earlier, ABC officially passed on the Untitled Kay Oyegun drama pilot and comedy pilot The Son in Law.
