• Hilton Head, Beaufort marshes backdrop for new terrorism action film (islandpacket.com) — A Sea Pines resident is turning his past in Lowcountry drug smuggling into a new terrorism-themed action sequel, “One More Run,” set amid Hilton Head Island and Beaufort’s marshes. Building on his earlier film “The Final Run,” Walter Czura’s next project again uses local waterways as a central character while drawing on real 1970s smuggling history that once ran through Hilton Head.
