Apparently, some of y’all weren’t ready to leave this gruesome shindig. For the second week in a row, Yeehaw Horror is winning on the Paramount+ charts. The #1 horror Organ Trail again, and that’s cause for a hootenanny in these parts. Allow us to tell you why you might want to attend this bloody barn-raising. 

Rotten Tomatoes Synopsis

“Abigale and her family fall victim to a gang of ruthless cowboys while making their way across the Oregon Trail. As the only survivor, she does whatever it takes to retrieve her family’s horse from the clutches of the bloodthirsty bandits.”

Organ Trail was directed by Michael Patrick Jann. It was written by Meg Turner. The cast includes Zoé De Grand Maison, Mather Zickel, Lisa LoCicero, Lukas Jann, Olivia Grace Applegate, Alejandro Akara, and Sam Trammell.

Organ Trail

It’s hard to not be intrigued by a movie with a title this good. Tyler Doupe discovered how the title came to be. He wrote about it in his review of the movie.

Organ Trail marks screenwriter Meg Turner’s first feature-length screenplay. But their understanding of narrative structure and knack for creating entertaining characters has me quite keen to see what they do next. Turner revealed that they came up with the title for the film before the screenplay had been written. It all came about when they Googled the Oregon Trail video game but misspelled the title. Thinking Organ Trail sounded like a good name for a horror screenplay. That happy accident saw Turner eventually coming up with an idea that they loosely described as Little House on the Prairie if it were written by Quentin Tarantino. And I think that’s a fairly accurate summation.”

We love to see new horror hit streamers like Paramount+ and continue growing an audience base. So, we are rooting (and tooting) for Oregon Trail. Check out the trailer below, if you want more information.
