What Happened To Summer Of Sam?
In 1999, when Spike Lee set out to direct a film about serial killer David Berkowitz, the world wasn’t so at peace with this part of ourselves. Not when they initially heard the idea, and still not later on when they found out Summer of Sam would actually be about New York City as a whole in the mid-1970s. The heat waves, blackouts, Reggie Jackson, the New York Yankees, a guy named Vinny who was seriously horny, and his goofy friends…This is the story of that story, and how making it resulted in Spike Lee, with a frightened family at home, telling an interviewer on a popular television program that the editor of the New York Daily News deserved to get hit with a baseball bat. This is what happened to Summer of Sam.

SERIES SYNOPSIS: Hollywood has had its fair share of historically troubled productions. Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, these films had every intention to be a blockbuster but were beset with unforeseen disasters. Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs. Either way, we have to ask: What Happened To This Horror Movie?
