After taking viewers behind-the-scenes of Rob Zombie's 31 in the extensive documentary In Hell Everybody Loves Popcorn: The Making of 31, filmmaker Josh Hasty returns behind the camera for his own feature film Candy Corn. Featuring an all-star horror cast that includes Courtney Gains, P.J. Soles, and Tony Todd, Candy Corn is now on Blu-ray and VOD from Dread, and we caught up with Hasty in our latest Q&a feature to discuss assembling his cast of horror icons, bottling the intoxicatingly nostalgic atmosphere of Halloween, and the insights he's learned from having Rob Zombie as a friend and mentor.

As a huge nerd of John Carpenter’s Halloween, I know of Kenny Caperton’s The Myers House in North Carolina. Kenny built his own home in the style of the legendary Myers House from the Halloween franchise. I’ve always told myself if I make it out to North Carolina, I want to visit the place. Kenny dropped me a line about a film that he and Josh Hasty, who previously directed the Halloween tribute short film, Judith where Kenny’s The Myers House was utilized, are making called Honeyspider.

Here at Dread Central we're all big fans of haunted attractions, and when we got word about "Scaredown," coming this fall to Waynesville, Ohio, we did a little digging and are happy to pass on the following preliminary information.
Scaredown Description:
Scaredown is the evil child of independent filmmaker/musician Josh Hasty (A Mannequin in Static, Judith, Total Skull). This is a premier event that is unlike any other haunt you may have seen before. This six-acre farm in Warren County, Ohio, offers a state-of-the-art, in-your-face walk-through haunted barn and corn maze as well as an actual haunted 1800's farm house where you can experience a ghost hunt lit only by glow sticks! Meanwhile, outside of the madness, folks can pick a jack o'lantern from the pumpkin patch and mingle with their festive treats around the large bonfire while they watch their favorite old monster movies on the big screen.

Despite its low budget, a mostly no-name cast, and age, many fans out there still find John Carpenter's original masterpiece Halloween to be one of the best film's our genre has ever seen; and we completely agree. Filmmakers Josh Hasty and Kenny Caperton certainly feel the same way as they've made a prequel of sorts to that film and not Zombie's. Ever wonder what led up to Judith Myer's staying home that fateful evening? Get ready to experience one fan's rendition of that sliver of backstory.
Below you'll find the synopsis, teaser posters, and the teaser trailer for Judith: A Halloween Tribute Film. To sweeten the pot for viewers, writer Kenny Caperton has proven himself to be an uber-fan by building his North Carolina home into an exact replica of the Myers house from Carpenter's original film. Check the goods after the break and for more visit the MyersHouseNC website.
