It's my favorite week of the year for BEHIND THE LENS – Halloween Week! And to celebrate my favorite holiday of the year, I've got some chilling, spooky, terrifying tales for you as PEDRO KOS breaks down his new film, the horrifying IN OUR BLOOD, while JON BERARDO talks about the blood-drenched noirish THE MANNEQUIN.

First up, let's take a look at IN OUR BLOOD. Directed by Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker PEDRO KOS in his first narrative feature, IN OUR BLOOD masterfully blends psychological mystery with chilling horror. The film weaves a twisted tale of reconciling with the ghosts of our past and confronting the complicity we share in creating a world that preys on the most vulnerable.

Directed by PEDRO KOS with a script by Mallory Westfall, IN OUR BLOOD stars Brittany O'Grady, E.J. Bonilla, Alanna Ubach, Krisha Fairchild, Leo Marks, Bianca Comparato, and Steven Klein.

Now, it's time to get a bit bloody, a bit supernaturally creepy, a bit mysterious, and a bit noirish thanks to writer/director JON BERARDO and his new film THE MANNEQUIN that transports us hauntingly through time from a glorious black and white prologue to a grisly exorcism.

Written and directed by Jon Berardo, THE MANNEQUIN stars Isabella Gomez, Lindsay Lavanchy, Shireen Lai, Maxwell Hamilton, Gabriella Rivera, with Krystle Martin and Jack Sochet.

In THE MANNEQUIN, Liana Rojas, a creatively starved stylist assistant, discovers that the historical downtown Los Angeles factory building where her fashion designer sister mysteriously died is haunted by a serial killer posing as a headshot photographer for film studios who brutally murdered and dismembered his victims half a century earlier. This knowledge forces Liana and her friends to find a way to free themselves from the curse and escape the sinister ghost before they lose their own body parts.
