I sat down with award-winning actor Marshal Hilton to talk about both past projects like the Bunnyman franchise, and his roles in several soon to be released films including Primal Rage, Astro. Hilton also gave us an inside look at what it’s like to star in horror films, the good, the bad, and the gooey. Horror Fuel: “How did you get your start?” Marshal Hilton: “I wish it was some grand design to tell you about, but it isn’t. I was born in Long Beach, California and raised up thirty minutes north of Los Angeles. You’re never a headshot, a script, and a friend away from a role. I had that creative thing inside of me. I’ve been in and out of Hollywood since I was a kid. It’s something I continue to work at and do and the jobs just keep coming. I’ve probably worked on seventy or eighty films. I meet a lot of people who come here,

In August of 1938, readers of Astounding Science-Fiction Magazine beat the summer heat by reading a chilling science-fiction story that took them to the heart of Antarctica where a group of scientists was trapped along with a shape-shifting extraterrestrial. That story was Who Goes There?, by Don A. Stuart, the pen name of John W. Campbell Jr. The story was later reprinted in book form where Campbell used his real name. The novella eventually spawned three movies, the first one in 1951 titled The Thing from Another World that was followed up by John Carpenter’s 1982 cult classic The Thing (it spawned a video game as well as a series of comics.) which was followed up by the 2011 prequel using the same name. Three movies based on one book. The film industry is known for taking a book and making it into a film with mixed results, usually negative. So the question remains, out of the three films based

Ahead of March’s digital and DVD release of the genre film Hell’s Kitty, the filmmakers have produced an exciting music video for the original song “Chainsaw Kitty”. The “Chainsaw Kitty” music video was meant to “reflect the often schizschizophrenic personality movie’s central antagonist – a supernatural, loving, but possessive cat named Angel.” The song is currently available on Amazon and Spotify; soon to be available on iTunes. The music video contains clips from the film and is available to watch here now. Hell’s Kitty centers on a Hollywood writer who tries to find love in L.A. with a possessed and possessive pussycat named Angel and features several horror icons. Guest stars include: Dale Midkiff (Pet Sematary), Doug Jones (The Shape of Water), Adrienne Barbeau (Swamp Thing), Ashley C. Williams (The Human Centipede), Kelli Maroney (Night of the Comet), Courtney Gains (The Children of the Corn), Barbara Nedelkajova (Hostel), and Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes); and costume work by Charles

Black Creek begins with a number of disparate (yet oddly connected) story lines including; a missing girl going Satan-eyed and offing and/or possessing some teenage deer hunters, a gaggle of high schoolers doing that tried and true ‘teen partying’ at their emo pal Mike’s (who is a P.H. Native American…trust me, that will be important later) murder house (hey, just because folks died there years previous doesn’t mean you can’t go B.D. into the hot tub), and a young couple gettin’ their horny on in the woods…woods decked out in dream catchers…but wait my creeps, the plot sickens… Before long our hot tub lovin’ youths head out to that ol’ hoary chestnut, ‘the cabin in the woods’, to lay emo dude’s father’s ashes to rest…and drink…mostly drink…and fuck…and emo it up…I don’t know…aaaand bad dreams and possession by evil Native American spirits ensue!

The crew of the spacecraft Nautilus returns to Earth after a prolonged mission to find the planet isn’t exactly as they remembered it due to the ravages of a nuclear war. Now in the eponymous Aftermath, evil gangs led by the ruthless Cutter (played with scenery chewing gusto by genre legend Sid Haig) are rounding up women and murdering (in spectacularly gory fashion) any man that crosses their path…and wouldn’t ya know it, our heroes are men (and have the patchy beards to prove it). That would be bad enough for our erstwhile astronauts, but they also have to contend with roving bands of mutants and violent radioactive storms. Can our heroes, along with a handful of survivors, endure the wasteland and end Cutter’s reign? Boasting out-of-left-field gore effects, hammy postulating on man’s place in the universe, a future devoid of bras, hilariously unnecessary narration, pew pew lasers, and great appearances by beloved members in good standing of the horror

At the dawn of the twentieth century, New Orleans is burdened with a terrible plague so consuming that the bodies of the victims are littering the streets. Times are understandably desperate….so desperate that Marie Laveau (grand daughter of the infamous voodoo priestess of the same name) can’t help…and if even voodoo is powerless you know you are well and truly in the shit. Before long the enigmatic alchemist Jacques St. Germaine arrives in town, and teams up with Marie to solve the pestilent problem. Having these two powerhouses of the arcane joining forces is fortuitous, as soon bodies (specifically those of prostitutes) begin turning up that are not the result of the disease, but rather the result of ritual rites involving the draining of blood. Soon seemingly half of New Orleans is trying to solve the case, from ham-fisted policeman to the residents of a local whorehouse, and as they try shocking secrets are revealed and innocent lives are caught
