JEFFREY REDDICK: The original idea came from an article I read about a woman who was on vacation and her mother told her to switch flights because she had a bad feeling. The woman switched planes, and the plane she was scheduled to be on crashed. So that idea stuck with me, I just didn't know the story for it yet. And then when I was trying to get ...
JR:I got to write the story and executive-produce the second one and expand the mythology. Almost every week, somebody sends me a photo of them behind a log truck, which is kind of fun. As a horror fan, I'm really grateful and humbled by the fact that something I started has had the life and the legs that it has. This is what you dream about when y...
JR: That's one of my faves, I have to say. It was kind of my riff on Carrie, school bullying. I love Carrie, but I always hate that you have to wait until the last 15 minutes for her to get everybody.

Jesse Bradford, I adore him too. Brea Grant. That was one of the warmest sets I've been on. My sister got to play a cameo in it, so that was fun. Lori...
JR: I co-wrote that with two screenwriting buddies of mine, Bill Halfon and John Doyle. The director, Timothy Woodward Jr., he'd been hitting me up for a while on social media. He was like, "Hey, do you have any projects?" I was like, "No," because I didn't know who he was. [Laughs] He finally sent me a couple of trailers for a couple of movies tha...
JR:It's a "What's doing it?" mystery as opposed to "Who did it?" Our lead character, Caitlin, is a woman of faith who is going through a personal tragedy, and she starts seeing signs that lead her to believe that this is something supernatural, while everybody else thinks it's a killer. Kourtney Bell is a great actress. I saw her website, where she...
