South of Hell is a 2015 American supernaturalhorrordrama television series starring Mena Suvari.[2] The series was ordered by WE tv with a straight eight episode pick up in 2014, but after a change of AMC Networks personnel and a shift back towards reality television programming, the network burned off seven of its eight episodes all on one day on November 27, 2015 (that year's Black Friday); the eighth was made available exclusively at the time through the iTunes Store.[2][3][4] Several feature directors, including Ti West, Rachel Talalay, Jennifer Lynch and Jeremiah S. Chechik, directed individual episodes, along with executive producer Eli Roth, who directed the pilot.[5] The series is currently available in full through digital retailers, along with several ad-supported video on demand providers.
