Ted Raimi is a badass. We all know it. If you’re a horror fan, chances are you know and love him. For decades now, he has been one of the go to actors in the genre.

It’s not easy being a leading man in a genre that is primarily known for Scream Queens and masked maniacs. But Thom Mathews is truly one of the great leading men of horror. As Freddy in the beloved zombie classic Return of the Living Dead (Joey in its sequel) and Friday the 13th series hero Tommy Jarvis in franchise favorite Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives, Thom has managed the difficult balance of being both heroic and vulnerable in films that are often thought to be populated by stock cha...

Horror writer Soren Narnia is a bit of a mystery. Not just because as an author and podcaster he keeps his personal life completely tucked away, but also because there’s an enigmatic quality to him as a horror writer and voice over performer that makes him so incredibly compelling to listen to. In fact, Soren’s beloved podcast Knifepoint Horror was the reason Kevin Lane fell in love with the podcast medium to begin with. On Knifepoint, Soren writes and performs all his stories told by a single v...

Steven Kostanski is one of the most exciting directors currently working in the genre. He’s one of those guys whose love and respect for genre films is absolutely infectious.

He tells Kevin Lane that as a kid he was scared just going into the horror section of his local video store. His love of the movies really began...

In 2009, Kevin Lane's friend, the brilliant Stuart Gordon, invited him to see his new play, a one man show playing at the Steve Allen Theater in Los Angeles called Nevermore. The star of the show, was the great character actor and star of Re-Animator, Jeffrey Combs. Sitting in the theater, Kevin watched as Jeffrey not just captured Edgar Allan Poe, but as one critic put it “seemed to be channeling him”. It was remarkable to see Jeffrey in the role. As tortured and tragic as he was funny. But tha...

In this episode of Kevin Lane's Spill Your Guts, we delve into the varied and often surprising career of one of the original queens of scream, Adrienne Barbeau. It’s a bit of a misnomer to call Adrienne a scream queen, because Adrienne prides herself on playing women in horror who aren’t victims. With iconic characters like Stevie Wayne in the The Fog and Maggie in Escape from New York for master of horror John Carpenter (and former husband, but more on that later), Adrienne has never been comfo...
