Another HALLOWEEN 2 shocker! This was a tough race right down to the end, but one man jumped out front in a big way. MR. DAVID NEWMAN star of THE NEWMAN HOUR. Here is Mr. Newman hanging backstage with Dr. Loomis and Mr. Weird. Zombie knows how to pick a winner.
Coming in at #2 is Dr. WOLFENSTEIN from HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES. This was a surprise.
Check out this fan made Dead Debbie Doll, pretty sweet. All you need now is white horse and you are ready for action. Seriously is it just me or is Freddy checking out her ass back there? Real dead mommy.
Original Nazi hottie Dyanne Thorne tells why she never made it into Werewolf Women Of The SS. She spoke to Retro-Crush about it.
Would you want to do big budget action films or independent stuff?
I did want to work with noted directors, but I no longer care to act. There are quality independent films out there now; I relate to many. "Sundance" continues to encourage worthwhile contributions. You’ve got directors like Zombie and Tarrantino who are among those recognized for their style. If they offered me an interesting role I'd consider it. It’s a new century. In the 70’s & 80’s, low budget indies could be made for next to nothing. There was a first week celebration with a flash in "Variety" if a picture brought in $90,000 dollars. That was a big deal 30 years ago; now it’s nothing.
Speaking of Quentin Tarrantino, have you heard of the "Grindhouse" double feature?
Yes
Did you know about the fake trailers in the middle?
It was nice to have been invited to be a part of that, but I chose not – I was far too busy at the time with my current activities. I haven’t seen the trailer that they did put together.
Did Rob Zombie get a hold of you?
No, it was his casting gal. She called and then sent an e-mail and a letter. I’m so involved in what I’m doing now that to go to LA for a day just for a lark, doesn’t fit in.
They made a parody, instead of "Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS" they made Werewolves of the SS. Sort of a homage to the Ilsa movie.
Someone asked me if I wanted to make an appearance in it. Again, the time just wasn’t right.

I guess this one was no contest. Coming in at #1 with a whopping 64% of the vote is Danny Trejo. Apparently everyone loves Danny, Hollywood's favorite bad ass motherfucker.
Coming in at #2 is Ken Foree. We all love Ken from his turns in The Devil's Rejects, Halloween and El Superbeasto
Hammer Horror legend Caroline Munro had few words to say about Mr. Zombie. "There are a few people I would like to work with now, in the genre that appeals to me, in which I could do something for and I would love to work with. Yes and the others are Quentin Tarantino, a big one I know. Tim Burton and Rob Zombie. Rob Zombie produces interesting work for me, and he uses old girls and boys."
Well this is really no surprise. The Devil's Rejects came in at number one with 178 votes. The surprise is that Halloween 2 came in a number two with 177 votes.
For those of you unlucky enough to have missed it here is a sample of the fun that was happening at Universal Studios. Including HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES the maze in 3D! The lines were long but man was it worth it!
