Devils Rejects update: According to Bloody Disgusting
Rob Zombie's personal assistant writes in:
File this one under the strangest casting news yet.
But apparently porn legend Ginger Lynn has joined the
cast of The Devil's Rejects. We don't want
to give away too much, but let's just say that Captain
Spaulding get his rocks off big time.

Wes Craven reinvented the Nightmare On Elm Street
series, Freddy Krueger, and horror when he took Freddy
out of the movie world, and brought him into the real
world with Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Taking place in
our world, where Freddy only exists in the movies, the
director and cast of the original A Nightmare On Elm
Street are haunted with visions of the fictional
character. At first it's passed off as just a series
of coincidental dreams, but as the corpses start
piling up, it's discovered that something has caused
the knife-fingered killer to manifest in our reality.

ANOTHER JASON ONLINE: Warrington "JASON 2" Gillette has hit the web and to top it off has brought the ultimate Jason 2 mask with him! You need to see it to believe it:
Guts and Gory: As you all know, the Pit of Horror messageboard has been down lately. This was the final push for us, as we have really outgrown the Star Blvd service with so many members wanting to join the board week in and week out. It just wasn't possible for us to manually update the user database. Especially since we had to sort out official boards for Andrew Bryniarski and Warrington Gillette. So we decided that it was time to set up an all new board on an all new site (for bandwidth purposes). Check it out now: www.gutsandgory.com/forum - What are you waiting for?
LEATHERFACE COLLISION: Original Leatherface Gunnar Hansen and remake Leatherface star Andrew Bryniarski met up for the first time at the Hauntcon just past. See Bryniarski's official site

As the production enters it's third week of principle
photography the word is that the picture is on
schedule and that Lion's Gate is beyond thrilled with
what they have been seeing. One executive was quoted
as saying that, "The film is much darker and nastier
than anything seen in the first film. The difference
between this film and House of 1000 Corpses is night
and day. The first film looks like Finding Nemo
compared to The Devil's Rejects. Mr. Zombie is far
exceeding our expectations."
So far the cast includes Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, Sheri
Moon, Michael Berryman, Ken Foree, Kane Hodder, Steve
Railsback, Tyler Mane, P.J. Soles, Danny Trejo, Brian
Posehn, Leslie Easterbrook, Daniel Roebuck, Duane
Whitaker, Rosario Dawson and more!
www.the-trades.com writes: As for the sequel, McBride
confirmed that shooting will begin in the fall for a
targeted 2005 release; and he also confirmed that Kate
Beckinsale and Scott Speedman have already signed on
to reprise their respective roles.
McBride went on to say that he is currently preparing
the outline for the second draft of the sequel and
that the production team is in the middle of the
development stages. "The new film will carry the story
further as well as incorporate a few prequel
sequences, which should be extremely cool." He added,
"Patrick Tatopoulos (the creature designer) has, par
for course, created some fantastic new designs for the
film. Len has been busy storyboarding and is gearing
up for location scouting."
This haunting, re-imagined Freddy Krueger 12" figure
includes an all-new outfit with coat, fedora, and
redesigned, biomechanical, all finger-bladed right
hand. The first 750 customers to purchase Freddy
directly from Sideshow will receive an exclusive
tongue phone accessory! Check out the pictures here.
