During today’s Comic-Con@Home, USA Network and SYFY presented first looks at two of upcoming small screen reboots of classic horror franchises, Day of the Dead and Chucky. For Day of the Dead, there was a panel with some of the stars and creators, and for Chucky, there was an extended behind-the-scenes look at the franchise as a whole, including the upcoming series. Both shows are set to premiere this October.

Day of the Dead: Adapting a Legend

Showrunners Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas, director Steven Kostanski (The Void), and cast members Keenan Tracey (Bates Motel) and Natalie Malaika discuss SYFY’s Day of the Dead and premiere a first look at the upcoming series with an exclusive trailer. Moderated by SYFY WIRE’s Caitlin Busch, the conversation provides a deep dive into the world of horror, a behind-the-scenes look into the show’s creation, how George A. Romero’s work inspired the producers of the series, and how it pays homage to The Godfather of Zombie’s original famous flesh eaters.

The Legacy of Chucky

USA & SYFY present an exclusive featurette that celebrates the 30+ year legacy of the Child’s Play franchise and iconic character, Chucky, with never-before-seen interviews with franchise creator Don Mancini and fan favorites Brad Dourif (Chucky), Jennifer Tilly (Tiffany), Fiona Dourif (Nica), Alex Vincent (Andy Barclay), and Christine Elise (Kyle). Fans will also get a behind-the-scenes look and world premiere exclusive trailer of the highly anticipated Chucky series coming to USA & SYFY this fall, which will welcome Devon Sawa (Final Destination, Casper) and Lexa Doig (Arrow, Stargate: SG1) to the franchise as well as Zackary Arthur, Bjorgvin Arnarson, Alyvia Alyn Lind, and Teo Briones.
