We're back with another installment of Horror Highlights! Check out our exclusive trailer premiere for Hellbilly Hollow, learn more about Mike Mignola's quarantine sketchbook, and read about SHHHH's Blu-ray release:

Exclusive Trailer Premiere for HELLBILLY HOLLOW: "Bull protects his not-so-small younger brother from the outside world, but who protects the outside world from Tickles. A team of YouTube paranormal activity seekers journey to a haunted attraction in the backwoods of Alabama to find more than they bargained for as they follow thrill-seekers on a haunted hayride. Fear and death plague those who enter and those who seek the past."

Directed by Kevin Wayne and executive produced by Kurt “Bald Man” Deimer, and starring Bald Man, Kevin Wayne, Megan Weaver, and Hallie Shepherd.

“As a hardcore horror fan, Hellbilly Hollow is the kind of franchise film I always wanted to make and watch, especially since acting in Blumhouse’s Halloween in 2018,” said Bald Man. “Not only is Hellbilly Hollow a terrifying slasher loaded with tons of creative, psychotic kills, there are also a lot of funny, laugh-out-loud moments. Fans of the unsettling and disturbing are in for a fun ride and I can’t wait to share the film with everyone later this fall.”

Hellbilly Hollow features six tracks from “Music for the Rest of Us,” rock artist Bald Man’s upcoming 10-track debut studio album of original material due out September 18: https://liveforlivemusic.com/features/premiere-bald-man-fight-video/

Dark Horse Comics to Publish MIKE MIGNOLA: THE QUARANTINE SKETCHBOOK: "During the coronavirus quarantine, legendary Hellboy creator Mike Mignola posted original pencil sketches online and auctioned off the art to raise money for Chef José Andrés’ World Central Kitchen. The sketches went viral and were the talk of the comics internet. Now those sketches will be in print for the first time in a new, oversized hardcover collection from Dark Horse Books, with all profits going to World Central Kitchen (WCK).

“I started out doing these sketches just as a way to take my mind off the pandemic, but as they piled up it became clear that we had to do SOMETHING with them,” said Mignola. “My wife, Christine, suggested donating to World Central Kitchen. José Andrés has been doing an amazing job getting food to people in need for a very long time, and now we are very happy to be doing what we can to help him with that.”

The book features an introduction by Chistine Mignola, alongside sketches of Hellboy, beloved and unexpected pop culture characters, macabre chess pieces, gothic vegetable creatures, strange vampires, and more.

“I love Mike’s drawings,” said Andrés. “We’re so grateful for his support and continuous effort this year raising awareness and money for World Central Kitchen.” WCK was founded by Andrés in 2010 and is a non-profit organization that uses the power of food to heal communities and strengthen economies in times of crisis and beyond. Since its inception, WCK has served more than 40 million fresh meals to people impacted by natural disasters and other crises around the world in countries including The Bahamas, Indonesia, Lebanon, Mozambique, Venezuela, and the United States. During the Covid-19 pandemic, WCK has distributed more than 25 million fresh meals in 300+ cities and towns across the United States and Spain.

  • Batman
  • Dracula
  • The General Mills Cereal Monsters (Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry)
  • HR Puffnstuff
  • Masters of the Universe characters (including He-Man and Skeletor)
