"Holliston" roars into FEARnet, as the original series celebrates a twisted little town outside of Boston where things are not quite as they should be.

Tomorrow - Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012 - tune-in at 10:30 PM to the premiere of “Holliston” on FEARnet starring Adam Green, Joe Lynch, Dee Snider, Corri English, Laura Ortiz, Oderus Urungus and guest starring DeAnna Pappas. The horror-comedy is sponsored by Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.

This new series, FEARnet’s first original scripted television show, is an offbeat multi-camera, buddy comedy starring Adam Green (director, “Hatchet,” “Frozen”), and Joe Lynch (director, “Knights of Badassdom,” “Wrong Turn 2”).

Set in the town of Holliston (near Boston), the series shines a light on the post-college life where everything is a struggle, and nothing works out like it’s supposed to, with terrifyingly funny results as Adam and Joe struggle to become big-time horror filmmakers, and Adam embarrasses himself as he tries to win back his high school girlfriend.

The ensemble cast also includes Laura Ortiz (“The Hills Have Eyes,” “Horton Hears A Who”), Corri English (“Unrest,” “The Bedford Diaries,” lead singer of Brokedown Cadillac), Dee Snider (Twisted Sister, “Strangeland,” radio/television personality), and Oderus Urungus (Alien lead singer from legendary heavy metal band GWAR). 

(PILOT) - "The Hooker"

Adam agrees to go out on a double-date with his ex-childhood sweetheart, Corri, and resorts to hiring a hooker as his date when he can't find anyone else willing to go with him.  Episode 1 guest stars Deanna Pappas (“The Bachelorette”).
