Happy Halloween from Total Skull!
Happy Halloween, creeps! The latest video effort from our good buddy Kenny Caperton of the Myers House NC has hit the interwebs and it’s truly awesome! Kenny has been flexing his cinematic muscles since he wrote the script for the Halloween tribute film JUDITH and has been producing various movies and shorts since. This time out – he teams up with Sheri Moon Zombie and MVP’s own Kayli Tolleson (G.H.O.S.T., Indigo Child and Family Fiend) to bring you a rocking new promo vid to celebrate Halloween!

This week on Mutantville.com, we’ve decided to honor the recent release of the latest effort from the Master of Horror John Carpenter – The Ward – by taking a look at Carpenter’s first great work - Halloween. The MVP faithful will know that we go to great lengths to find the best and scariest films on the Internet for you – and this week we have something special. We’ve found a recording of the television cut of John Carpenter’s Halloween which contains scenes and footage not seen anywhere else!

In 2002, Neil Marshall exploded onto the scene with a wild werewolf movie called Dog Soldiers. Dog Soldiers tells the story of six British Army soldiers dropped into the Scottish Highlands to perform routine training exercises only to discover that something much more sinister is afoot – approximately seven afoot tall to be exact – with ears, fur and big pointy teeth! Find out what happens by watching the movie below.

It’s been a busy week for MVP as we finalized the sound mix for Scarecrow At Midnight, designed a graphic t-shirt for Family Fiend and moved that much closer to completing the digital FX for Indigo Child.
Sad news came to the world last Thursday as master storyteller Gene Colan passed away. MVP honored his memory by featuring his work on Collector’s Corner as well as Scary Movie Saturday.

This week on Collector’s Corner – the producers at MVP would like to pay tribute to the late great artist – Gene Colan – who passed away just this past week. Gene Colan was an artist on Daredevil, Doctor Strange, Tomb of Dracula and most recently Rob Zombie’s Spookshow International. Gene illustrated a story written by Rob Zombie for the first three issues of Spookshow International entitled “The Return of Screaming Lord Zombie.” In this video, Streebo takes a look at his Gene Colan collection and Gene’s story in Spookshow International in particular.
Welcome back to Mutantville Monday, faithful mutants! It’s time to get your week started with a round up of news and gossip from the past week.

Check out the official announcement on Vanelle’s casting by clicking here and then find out all you need to know about her by checking out her official IMBb page.
MASTER ARTIST PASSES AWAY.
Word spread quickly across the internet last Thursday as legendary artist “Genial” Gene Colan passed away. Gene was well known for his work in comics over the past several decades working on everything from Dr. Strange to Tomb of Dracula to Rob Zombie’s Spookshow International! He had long been suffering from cancer and several other health concerns and was under the care of Hospice at the time of his passing. Gene was a fighter until the end with plans to leave Hospice and return home. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Gene’s family in their time of need. Mutantville Productions honored the passing of this amazing storyteller by featuring an adaptation of his Tomb of Dracula on Scary Movie Saturday. Check it out by clicking here.

The big news in MVP land this week is that we have found an event at which to premiere the entire Tales From Mutantville anthology. We’ll release an official announcement very soon – but in the meantime be very happy. This is going to be an historic event and one people will remember for a long time to come. MVP is honored to be a part of it.
MVP would like to give a quick shout out of congratulations to our friends at Sharpe Edge Films and Last Call Pictures as they both have films that have been accepted to the upcoming Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky.

And here’s out latest update from over the weekend as we prepared the underscore for Scarecrow At Midnight in the hopes to have the final score ready for viewing at ConCarolinas. Scarecrow At Midnight will be screened as part of the film festival that weekend along with Michael Sharpe’s Monomaniacal and other fantastic entries.
In the world of horror, fans are gearing up for the new release from John Carpenter – The Ward – which hits theaters on July 8th! MVP is planning a trip to Kentucky for this year’s awesome Fright Night Film Festival with none other than the Master of Horror himself – John Carpenter. Be sure to check out our multi-part interview with Ken Daniels – promoter of Fright Night Film Fest and Fandom Fest:
True Blood season 4 is about to start this summer. Teaser vids have been hitting the internetz every week.
The truly bad ass Mortal Kombat Legacy vids are continuing to bloody the Internet. Be sure to check them out.
The sleeper supernatural thriller from James Wan – Insidious – is about to hit it’s DVD release date on July 12. The movie itself is still playing in some theaters. If you haven’t seen it yet – get out and watch what has been to this point the best horror release of 2011.
Rob Zombie is currently shooting his latest horror flick – Lords of Salem. Reports from the set say that it is very FX heavy. I’m glad to see Zombie going back to original works now so his work won’t be subjected to such idiotic scrutiny prior to it’s release as happened with his Halloween films. I still blame that idiot at AICN “Quint” for starting that snowball rolling with his moronic review of Zombie’s Halloween script. Yes, this is what’s called carrying a grudge. I keep bringing that crap up four years later. It was in effect the Gulf of Tonkin incident for Horror Fandom at which point the entire community’s head disappeared up it’s own ass. See my review “Rob Zombie’s Halloween is a Kick Ass Remake” for my thoughts on that frustrating time period in horror.

Rob Zombie is in Britain for his first UK tour since the 1990s. Empire was at the awesome Manchester gig (it was, as the man himself says “a lovely party”!) so we thought we’d be remiss not to see what we could find out about Zombie’s upcoming horror opus The Lords of Salem.
Shooting starts, if all goes to plan, on April 18th, as soon as he gets home from the tour. He’ll then go back out on the rock festival circuit for the summer, edit in the autumn, and expects a release in early 2012.
