‘Tales From The Hood II’ Moves Closer To Production

Rusty Cundieff’s 1995 Tales From the Hood is finally getting a sequel 20 years after its release. A few months ago Cundieff teased the sequel with a photo he tweeted during location scouting, which he quickly deleted. Cundieff also hinted that we might see the return of the creepy doll from the first film that was featured in the “KKK Comeuppance” segment which featured haunted dolls animated by the souls of slaves. Good Golly. pic.twitter.com/deGdw0m6QA — Rusty Cundieff (@RustyCundieff) March 9, 2018 Following a question from a fan, he revealed that cast was nearly complete. Another tweet was shared on Cundieff’s news feed of a newspaper. If you look closely, you will see that filming will take place in Louisiana and that the film, which still hasn’t officially been announced, has an estimated budget of $3.2 million. EXCITED!!! I hope to work with the GREAT @RustyCundieff on his latest project. #talesfromthehood #nola #film @projectgumbeaux pic.twitter.com/gBnf45uANR — The Don Diva Trell

‘Tales From The Hood’ Getting A Sequel After 22 Years!

Back in 1995 Rusty Cundieff’s anthology, Tales From the Hood was released. While we have seen plenty of anthologies since none have captured Tales From the Hood‘s unique flavor. However, is about to change, after 22 years the movie is finally getting a sequel! I know, it’s awesome, right? The news came via writer/director Rusty Cundieff’s Twitter account in a now-deleted tweet on January 5, 2018, that said, “In New Orleans Location scouting for Tales From The Hood 2 This is part of Anne Rice’s old Home and where she held her LeStat parties.” He confirmed the film again earlier tonight in a tweet which reads, “Can’t scream it but…yeah…” and featured an image from the original movie. https://twitter.com/RustyCundieff/status/949374308215861249 Cundieff has had several projects since Tales From the Hood was released including directing episodes of ‘Chappelle’s Show’, ‘The Hustle’, and the comedy series ‘Black Jesus’.
