Trailer: Amazon’s Picnic at Hanging Rock Mini-Series Starring Natalie Dormer and Samara Weaving

I don’t know if you would consider either the novel “Picnic at Hanging Rock” or the 1975 Peter Weir adaptation “horror” but all the same, I dig the tale and find it to be super creepy. Thus I just want to make you guys aware of Amazon’s new six-episode adaptation starring Natalie Dormer (The Forest) and Samara Weaving (Mayhem).
