Intro

Welcome to Kevin and Brian\\u2019s Horror Bulletin podcast recorded live from the vampire\\u2019s crypt, where each week, we cover the latest horror news, shorts, a classic Universal horror, and two creature-feature reviews. This week, after the news, we\\u2019ll cover the Universal Studios movie \\u201cMurders In The Rue Morgue\\u201d from 1932, the classic \\u201cCannibal Holocaust\\u201d from 1980, discussion of the short film, \\u201cTurn Around\\u201d, and the modern-horror film, \\u201cThe Autopsy of Jane Doe\\u201d from 2016. Turn up the volume and lean in close. Here we go...

News Features

  1. A shout-out this week to one of our favorite horror movie clowns. Johnny Lee Johns AKA Captain Spaulding AKA Cutter turned 101 as of his fictional birthday on April 13th, being born in 1918. Time flies when you\\u2019re making mayhem. Fans have put together a great chronology of the Rob Zombie movie anti-hero, starting with his birth in El Paso, Texas up to the events leading to his appearance in \\u201cHouse Of 1000 Corpses\\u201d and \\u201cThe Devil\\u2019s Rejects.\\u201d Check out the link in the show notes for that. The good news is that actor Sid Haig is only 80 and still working, with a third appearance of The Captain in \\u201c3 From Hell\\u201d to be released later in 2019.

  1. Black Summer has arrived a little ahead of the actual summer. The new zombie series just premiered with the whole season 1 release on April 11th. Set in the early days of a zombie apocalypse, strangers become allies to band together to survive. These aren\\u2019t the slow lurching type of zombies, but are the fast-moving type that will be on you in a flash with rage and teeth. While the premise sounds familiar, this take on the genre is getting fan and critical praise. And of course stirring debates over if it can possibly be better than The Walking Dead or any of the others we\\u2019ve seen so far. We\\u2019ve included a link to the trailer, and it looks really good.

  1. The first teaser of American Horror Story Season 9 has been released with only hints of what it might be about. The theme this time around is \\u201c1984\\u201d, and the trailer certainly gives a \\u201cFriday The 13th\\u201d vibe with a young lady being chased through the woods by a hooded and shadowy figure. She takes shelter in a wooden structure and a huge knife plunges through the door she is leaning against. Details are pretty scant at this point. Evan Peters is said to not be returning this season. Emma Roberts and Gus Kenworthy are sure things. We\\u2019ll keep an eye out for more information, and we\\u2019ll be sure to watch in this fall 2019. We\\u2019ve included a link in the show notes.

  1. You know you\\u2019ve wondered - In a battle of Jason Voorhees versus Michael Meyers, who would win? Radical Talent has brought the thought experiment to life in a new 29-minute fan film \\u201cMichael vs. Jason: Evil Emerges\\u201d. They\\u2019ve done amazing work on a low budget as the two baddies battle it out to the bloody finish. What happens when an immovable object meets an irresistible force? You\\u2019ll have to watch to find out...

  1. Variety reports that Orlando Jones will be starring in an upcoming movie we\\u2019re excited about. Sort of a movie within a movie when a horror movie director becomes haunted by creatures from his own films while recovering from brain surgery. Production is expected to take place this summer, directed by Anthony O\\u2019Brien. It will also feature Steven Swadling and Prakash Amritraj. No doubt more casting, details, and a trailer will be coming soon.
