Elske McCain is pleased to announce that her latest film, Is Anyone There?, is gearing up for production late in 2012.
Is Anyone There? revolves around the story of an abused woman on the run who gets more than she bargains for when she stumbles upon an old Ouija board.
"After the difficulties encountered with the production and release of Jessicka Rabid, I decided that I wanted to star and produce a totally different type of horror movie," says McCain. "I combined inspiration from my one of my favorite directors Kevin Tenney [Night of the Demons, Witchboard], and have established and written a unique story that should excite horror fans new and old. I had originally written it to be a low budget Troma style picture, but after tremendous support from other respected producers and directors, I believe this project will be headed in a much bigger and better direction."

It was a little over a year ago that we first heard about Dennis Willman's new comic series Ginger-Stein: Rise of the Undead, and now that the first issue is about to launch on Tuesday, October 11th, we have a lot more details and an image gallery to share.
From the Press Release:
On October 11th artistic mastermind Dennis Willman reveals his newest creation, Ginger-Stein, to the world. Ginger-Stein is the title of a multimedia horror/sci-fi project that is written, created, and illustrated by Willman and is unlike anything the horror audience has ever seen.
Ginger-Stein: Rise of the Undead is the first in a set of six comic book mini-series featuring horror’s hottest new heroine. The story and artwork are deeply rooted in 1980’s horror and sci-fi nostalgia. The violence is over-the-top, and like any good 80’s horror story, there’s sex, drugs, and a breaking of...

Filming will start in Los Angeles this month on Dog Fight, a horror film which also includes action, crime and torture elements.
According to the official description, the plot "revolves around an underground fighting ring whose competitors are made up of women who have been kidnapped and 'broken' - essentially being turned into rabid dogs psychologically."
But, despite that potentially controversial storyline, you may be surprised to learn it's been scripted by two women and has two female producers.
Written by Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska (pictured top), the twin team behind Dead Hooker in a Trunk, it is being directed by Sean-Michael Argo, whose feature Fable: Teeth of Beasts screened at the Cannes Film Festival.
The film is produced by Tara Cardinal (pictured above right), who recently finished shooting action/fantasy flick Legend of the Red Reaper, and Devanny Pinn who, aside from appearances in Piranha 3D and the upcoming sci-fi thriller 15 Till Midnight,...

Devanny Pinn is probably the hardest working up and comer in the indie horror film scene. She just recently had a role in the very mainstream Piranha 3-D, but she balances that out with credible indie work in such titles as Song of the Shattered, 15 Till Midnight and the upcoming (and possibly cult classic- Dog Fight). And just for your info, she wants people to know that she is 22, not 21 like her IMDb profile says! I had the chance to ask her a few questions. Here is what she had to say.
(For more info. on Devanny visit http://devannypinn.net/ or to help out with her charity that she is associated with visit http://costumesforkids.net/ )
So for those unfamiliar with Devanny Pinn, who is she and what is she all about?

Dogfight, produced by Tara Cardinal and Devanny Pinn, and scripted by Jen and Sylvia Soska (Dead Hooker in a Trunk), pits woman against woman in a violent fight for survival.
The film, which is still in preproduction, is a low budget indie and will be directed by Sean Michael Argo. Dogfight will feature actors Tara Cardinal, Elske McCain, Tara Alexis, Rachel Grubb, Jose Rosete, Devanny Pinn, Bill Oberst Jr, Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska.
The small synopsis so far states: Kidnapped girls are trained to live and fight as dogs in a high priced underground ring.
I wonder if that means they fight Like dogs literally? Like, do they have to bite each other instead of punching? God, I hope so.
The film starts filming in Los Angeles, California in September, 2010. More as we hear it.

McCain, who produced the upcoming horror movie Jessicka Rabid, is working on the script currently and of Salem that "this role is being written specifically for her..."
"After being told for years that I should write a 'Strip Club Manifesto' of sorts," says McCain about the plot of the film, "I am channeling my years of stripping experiences into a screenplay that could only be written by somebody who truly knows the exotic dancing scene. Me."...

Between doing server switches and freaking out my fellow Fango staffers (and countless others) with my love of Joe Dante's Gremlins this week, a bunch of news rolled in that we didn't get a chance to cover for you in the past few days. Usually when we do the"In Brief" we limit the coverage to horror films only, but this time we're throwing in a little bit of everything, including several event listings.
So here's our latest roundup of bite-sized nuggets of horror news from Fango and around the 'net.

"Splatter Movie: The Director's Cut" Starring: Amy Lynn Best, Tom Sullivan ("The Evil Dead"), Debbie Rochon ("Nowhere Man"), Sofiya Smirnova ("A Feast Of Flesh"), Elske McCain ("Poultrygeist"), Rachelle Williams (Jess Franco's "Take-away Spirit"). A surreal and off-beat "documentary" about the making of a slasher movie called "Tessaract" (which, in turn, is about a group of filmmakers shooting a movie called "Splatter Movie") whose cast and crew is being stalked by a killer masquerading as the film's fictional killer. Written by Mike Watt and directed by and starring Amy Lynn Best, "Splatter Movie" quickly spirals into bizarre territory as the line between film and reality blurs?then disappears entirely!

Indie filmmaker Matthew Reel just got in touch with Fango with the first DVDetails on his new film Jessicka Rabid.
The film will be released on DVD by Plan 10 Pictures, the new company headed by filmmakers Tom Devlin and Lola Wallace, who recently released Easter Bunny, Kill! Kill! and The Trek. While an exact street date has not been announced for Jessicka Rabid, but we've got the first details below.
A dysfunctional family, the Hoffmans, have been living their lives in a veil of secrecy. Incest, rape are a part of their everyday lives. A product of which, is Jessicka (Elske). After years of nameless abuse of her family and neighbors, Jessicka has been reduced to something less than human. She's more of a family pet than she is a true member of the family. Jessicka is the tragic character brought up from her surroundings, and suddenly finds her opportunity for revenge.

Horror author/actor Joe Knetter checked in today with an update on his latest project, Strip Club Slasher, in which he will be playing ... what else? ... the Stripper Slayer.
Joe wrote the the script, and his co-stars are Elske McCain, Scarlet Salem, and Rachel Grubb. The film, a Not for the Squeamish production, is being directed by Jason Stephenson. A synopsis follows:
A seedy, small town strip joint takes a down and dirty donkey punch to the back of the head when one of the girls is brutally murdered. Fearing that the killer may be targeting the local talent, the authorities shut the place down while they investigate the crime. Sad and scared, the other girls decide to spend the weekend together to reflect on the loss of their friend and to keep each other safe. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll ensue before everything comes to a scream-filled halt...
