Jeffrey Combs, Kid Cudi, and Big Boi Join Shudder’s Creepshow!
Yes, you read that crazy headline right. There were loads of new updates on the Creepshow TV series released this week, outlining not only new additions to the cast but also plot details for all of the episodes in the first season.
Fans of both Kid Cudi and fellow rapper Big Boi of Outkast will be pleased to know that they’ll both have roles in the show. Also announced is cult horror star Jeffrey Combs of Re-Animator – but you and I are both aware that Combs needs no introduction.
Bruce Davison, who is no stranger to horror anthologies having been featured in Tales from the Crypt, has also been added. Finally, DJ Qualls is also joining the show – he’s been in a ton of movies and TV shows, but to me, he’ll always be from The New Guy. You know who I’m talking about.
The cast has already been spectacular, but these new additions to Creepshow come as a welcome surprise nonetheless.
Slash Film also gave us the details on all of the episodes for the first season of the show’s return. Read them below, and follow this link to make sure you’re up to date on all Creepshow news!

Watch ‘The Burning’ At The Location Where It Was Filmed
Fangoria is reporting that fans of the 1981 slasher The Burning will be able to have a screening of the film at the location where it was filmed. The movie is set at Camp Blackfoot which is actually the Stonehaven Nature Preserve in Ransomville, New York.
This ticketed event will take place on August 3. Guests will be able to take a tour of the grounds as well as enjoy some campfire snacks along with the screening of The Burning.
The film came out in the early ’80s when teen slashers were being churned out in magnum force. Thanks to Sean S. Cunningham’s Friday the 13th, filmmakers wanted to get in on the low-budget, high-profit movie market and a casket load of these types of films were produced, some better than others.
The Burning is one of the good ones, mostly because of the special effects from Tom Savini who had just come off of his groundbreaking work on Dawn of the Dead and Friday the 13th. He declined to do the sequel because of its illogical premise and instead signed on to do this movie. Also, a young Jason Alexander who would later go on to play George in Seinfeld is a featured player.
Because of its practical gore, The Burning had to be heavily edited before it received an R-rating. The MPAA was under the thumb of protest groups and political bigwigs to censor violent films at the time because slashers were just so graphic and detailed in their gore.
Tickets are $50, and if you want a special t-shirt, that will cost you another $25, You can get all the information by visiting the On Set Cinema webpage.

Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?
