CHILLER COOLS OFF AND SHAKES UP VIEWERS IN JUNE WITH LOADS OF CHILLS AND THRILLS
Paris Hilton in NINE LIVES on June 5
BURBANK, Calif. - June 4, 2007 - Chiller scares up the best television this June, beginning on June 5 when it showcases Paris Hilton in Nine Lives at 9pm and 12am (ET), the same day that she turns herself in to jail.
Other June stunts are Chiller Summer Camp, featuring campy horror classics every Friday night. And Sunday dinner will never be the same again after Chiller invites viewers to join Hannibal Lecter for a double feature on Sunday, June 24. First up on the serving platter is Red Dragon at 4pm and 9:30pm (ET), followed by Hannibal at 6:30pm and 12am (ET).
"Chiller has an amazing array of summer movies premiering and returning in June that will keep horror fans clenched in suspense all month long," said Dan Harrison, Senior Vice President Emerging Networks, NBC Universal Cable. "From Werewolf to Jaws, there will be plenty of selections to choose from."
Chiller promises more movies in June and delivers just that. Wednesday, June 6 belongs to the ferocious sharp-fanged creature known as the werewolf. At 12pm (ET) Chiller airs Monsters: Werewolf of Hollywood and the Werewolf of London is on at 3:30am (ET). Chiller also launches Werewolf with a six-episode run at 6pm (ET) on June 6. Then, don't forget to look for episodes of the series every Wednesday night in June.
Give dad the gift of fright this Father's Day with Chiller's Dawn of the Dad marathon. This lineup of dads isn't exactly full of candidates for a father-of-the-year award starting with Sheriff Buck in a six episode marathon of American Gothic at 9am and 3pm (ET), then Oscar winner Jack Nicholson is a force to be reckoned with in Stephen King's classic, The Shining, presented commercial-free at 9pm and 11:30pm (ET). More late-night horror is available at 2am (ET) with Son of Dracula and Son of Frankenstein at 4am (ET).
Wedding bells are ringing on Chiller in June, but don't look for happy endings.

Then, catch Demi Moore and Tom Hanks in Tales from the Crypt at 8pm (ET) and witness the Bride of Chucky at 9pm (ET). Finally, The Bride of Frankenstein brings the night to a close at 2am (ET).
Chiller warns audiences to beware of all large bodies of water this June. Scary movie lovers should prepare for a weekend of underwater chills with the original summer blockbuster Jaws at 9pm and 12:30am (ET) on Saturday, June 30, then stay awake for the Creature from the Black Lagoon at 3am (ET). The water-works weekend concludes with Sphere on Sunday, July 1 at 9pm and 12am (ET).
