VH1's tacky reality series Scream Queens gets a new set of judges for season 2: Scary Stud March 2006 Tim Sullivan (2001 Maniacs) and horror actress Jaime King (My Bloody Valentine 3D, The Tripper).

10 aspiring vapid actresses get the chance to win a role in Saw 3D, the next film in Lionsgate’s Saw horror franchise. Season one winner Tanedra Howard was featured in the “opening trap” scene in Saw VI playing the character “Simone.”

This season’s cast...

Today - Monday, November 16, join cult film director Katt Shea (Poison Ivy, The Rage: Carrie 2) at Trailers From Hell for the trailer to The Pom Pom Girls. Even in 1976 Joe Rubin's drive-in sexploitation hit was considered a cut above the usual, so its relative obscurity today can only be ascribed to its long unavailablity.

Then, on Wednesday, November 18, join Allison Anders for the trailer to The Big T.N.T. Show. AIP's 1966 followup to the smash rock concert hit The T.A.M.I. Show is fun but had less cultural impact. The lineup is stellar but producer Phil Spector didn't hit the jackpot this time out.

Check out what are actually some freaky moments from the second season of Ghost Whisperer, The WB TV show starring Jennifer Love Hewitt in which she plays a medium with a wacky love life! Horror for women, you know.

Also, there's an online Ghost Whisperer game called Melinda’s Haunted Closet. Step into Melinda Gordon's world by interacting with her haunted closet — check out her clothes, shoes and accessories. No bothersome action at all, and no math! Beware, though, some items have ghosts attached to them...

Watch the trailer, and then watch tonight...

Remember when we told you about Jennifer Thym's Hong Kong fantasy/sci-fi thriller web series Lumina? Well, the series, written and directed by Thym, has just been signed by American Web TV Channel KoldCast.

“This past week has been amazing,” says Lumina writer and director Jennifer Thym. “... I'm so excited that Lumina is now on their slate - it's a big step for a new Hong Kong production like ours!"

Marti Resteghini, VP, Network Programming at KoldCast TV, says that KoldCast has been looking for a special series with which to launch its new International channel. “Lumina is a thrilling fairytale about love, longing and greed...

The 2009 Spike TV Scream Awards will air on Spike Oct. 27th, 2009 at 10PM/9C, and you have a vote in who gets an award. Pretty/Scary is on the nomination committee, so while we tried to get the most deserving women on the voting ballot, not one female any category except as 'actress'. That's right, not even Catherine Hardwicke made it into Best Director for Twilight, but Michael Bay did for Transformers 2.

In any case, there are a few cool nominees that we're excited about...

Well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw. The 1989 Christian Slater/Winona Ryder/Shannen Doherty masterpiece of teen black comedy, murder, cliques, and morbidity Heathers is becoming a Fox TV series.

TV writer Mark Rizzo and producer Jenny Bicks (Sex in the City, Men in Trees) are in charge of the adaptation, which worries me, because of Sex in the City and Men in Trees being awful shows in which women are vapid innocent idiots and men are idealized as saviors of the middle-aged single gal. Anyway, this is about teenagers. So thankfully Diablo Cody is not involved...

The Sundance Channel's Asia Extreme minisite, launched earlier this month, showcases the work of a new wave of innovative filmmakers who are reinvigorating the world of horror genre movies.

While you're there, check out web series The Captive - a 12 episode thriller created by Karin Diann Williams, with Stuart Hynson Culpepper, and and starring Mad Men's Michael Gladis (best known as the pipe-smoking ad man Paul Kinsey ). It follows an unsuspecting twenty-something who is spirited away to the depths of a secret prison, where he faces a brutal interrogation and attempts to escape with the help of a seductive Trustee...

Casting for season two of VH1’s Scream Queens is on. The show is looking for great actresses willing to embarass themselves, get nude, be made fun of, and compete for a role in a major theatrically-released Lionsgate horror film. Just make sure you're beautiful, confident, tenacious, uninhibited and ready for stardom and will stop at nothing to get it. And between 21-30 (no old chicks.)

Season 1 featured James Gunn (Slither, Tromeo and Juliet) as a host along with Shawnee Smith (Amanda from the Saw franchise). Undoubtedly, the first episode will be the best when we see nervous attention whores being humilated onscreen. Welcome to low budget horror, gals! Get used to it. Info below...
