Pop Skull Star Extras in ‘H2’, Talks About Experience
Pop Skull co-writer, producer and actor Lane Hughes writes in with something you Halloween fans might be interested in. Hughes, who was up for a role in Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, ended up being an extra at the Phantom Jam in Haddonfield, a big party sequel in zombie’s sequel. Below you’ll find a video where he’s interviewed about his experiences, which can give you some insight into the forthcoming release arriving in theaters August 28th.
Lane Hughes writes in:
“I almost had an audition for H2 but was f*cked out of it last minute due to politics but was determined to get on set because I’m such a huge fan of the series and Rob’s music; even if it just meant being an extra.
While there I befriended two other young horror filmmakers from my own hometown I’d never met before! They have two films going to festivals soon and a vlog called “Nothing Special”. They interviewed me on the third installment which is a H2 set report. It’s a great story in true Gonzo journalism fashion.
We talk about how we got involved with H2, how we met, Pop Skull, and what we saw/experienced on the set. It’s a bit lengthy but very fun, entertaining, and informative. It’d be a great companion piece as well as an alternative angle to all the behind-the-scenes stuff Scout and other cast members are posting.”

POP SKULL hits DVD on July 288th through Halo-8.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
