Anchor Bay is releasing Fear Clinic today. It stars Robert Englund and Thomas Dekker. While we didn't get a chance to have an encounter with Freddy Kruger himself, we did catch up with Thomas Dekker.

You're going to be seeing a lot from Anchor Bay's Zombie Killers: Elephant's Graveyard. It's a new and interesting zombie franchise from writer/director Harrison Smith. No, not the one who plays for my NFL Vikings. More on him later. (The director, not the football player). The film stars, among others Felissa Rose. You might remember her as the 13 year old baddie in Sleepaway Camp. She's been busy lately. You can catch her in Zombie Killers. I caught up to her last week and I got to talk to her about both films...and more. The movie is out now. She was super excited to talk. Bang it here to listen in on my chat with Felissa Rose.

A while back Normandy reviewed The Junior Spy Agency, written and directed by Tom Whitus. It took a while and word got back to Tom and he was gracious enough to offer up some of his valuable time.

Anyone who has seen the Starz pirate drama Black Sails knows who Hannah New is. She plays the feisty Eleanor Guthrie. Eleanor runs the Island where all of the pirates sell their booty.

Bang it here to listen in on my chat with Hannah New. There are a few clicks in the audio which were an unfortunate result of our telephone connection. It's worth the patience.
