Hello ladies and gentlemen, Muldoon here and fall is in the air. Autumn is creeping in with leaves starting to die, wind whistling more and more, and Halloween decorations slowly starting to spurt up from their summer storage graves. What an incredible time of the year, filled with ghosts, goblins, and ghouls galore. I'm soaking up the spirit of the holiday myself with a full chilling week of horror films here at Fantastic Fest and am certain you'll be seeing random reviews praising the fest for the fun it is over the next week. Aside from a random kickass festival, October is prime time for all the spooky horror flicks to come out and there's one in particular I've been dying to see: TALES OF HALLOWEEN. It's an anthology film from creatives like Darren Lynn Bousman, Neil Marshall, Adam Gierasch, and one of my all time favorites - Lucky McKee. It has incredible filmmakers, a variety of scary tales, scary creatures, and the incredible Ms. Adrienne Barbeau!! I'm genuinely excited for this film, so when I was asked "Hey Muldoon, would you want to screen a clip from the film?" Yes, I unabashedly jumped at the opportunity. Side note, I've gone on and on about how big an AMERICAN HORROR STORY fan I am, and sadly reported the passing of AHS actor Ben Woolf here back in February. It will be a genuine treat to see Mr. Woolf in TALES OF HALLOWEEN in the role of "Rusty Rex" amongst a wide array of talented horror staples. Enjoy the clip and if you are as curious as I am about the film, it hits VOD and iTunes on October 16th.
EXCLUSIVE CLIP: "The Ransom of Rusty Rex" by Ryan Schifrin
Ten stories are woven together by their shared theme of Halloween night in an American suburb, where ghouls, imps, aliens and axe murderers appear for one night only to terrorize unsuspecting residents.

So ladies and gents, what are your thoughts? Is this right up your alley or not? (Special thanks to Taylor Saviano for sending this my way!)
