Horror Headlines: Wednesday February 11th, 2009

The Weinstein's are being hard bargainers when it comes to bringing Malcolm MacDowell back for "H2". Not sure how MacDowell has bargaining leverage, but I guess Zombie wants him back, so we'll find out if he's able to make a deal before they begin shooting in a few weeks. The story also says that this one's set "2 months later", which would put it right around Christmas. That's odd, but could be interesting.

"Jason Goes To Hell" director Adam Marcus will be directing a remake of the RKO classic "I Walked With A Zombie". Something else I learned today, Marcus was only 24 when he directed the 9th Jason film. 24! Kind of puts things in perspective... and makes me depressed.

Will "Feast 4" happen? Does anyone want it to? Okay, I'm not going to lie, I kind of do. Sue me.

Wow, apparently there's been 13 TV spots for "Friday the 13th". And here's the 13th one. Stay tuned to next week's podcast to find out if our box office predictions from this week's episode pan out.

In Real People News: 

It's like a real life "Cannibal Holocaust". And yup, it's just as gruesome as it sounds.

Man caught masturbating in front of the Hot Wheels display at his local WalMart. Wow, that's pretty f'ing strange. Unless they were the kind with the damage panels that flipped around. Those were pretty sweet.

I was all freaked out reading about how this guy thinks we're headed for another Ice Age, until I scrolled down to the bottom and saw his theory on how President Bush was responsible for 9/11 and I realized the guy who wrote it is just a nutjob. I mean come on people, do you really think Bush was that smart?

On this day in history: 

1933: Nineteen year old Japanese schoolgirl Kiyoko Matsumoto committed suicide by jumping into the thousand foot crater of a volcano on the island of Oshima. This act started a bizarre fashion in Japan and in the ensuing months three hundred children did the same thing.
