Horror icon Jamie Lee Curtis sits for a candid interview with the first man to play The Shape (Nick Castle), and the last man to play The Shape (James Jude Courtney). The trio discusses how Halloween began, how Halloween Ends, and the unusual bond the three of them share. Elsewhere in the mag we celebrate the Halloween franchise by recounting how Joe Bob Briggs was forced to reconsider his opinion of Halloween III earlier this year, and Stephen Graham Jones writes about the different genre moments that fed the flashpoint of the 1978 classic. The magazine is also excited to feature a deep dive into the making of the brand new Hellraiser, as we hear from director David Bruckner and producer David Goyer on the unexpected new directions they’re taking the property. We also meet the new Pinhead herself, Jamie Clayton, and learn some of the film’s secrets from makeup FX artists Joss & Sierra Russell. Other new releases featured:
- A chat between Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton) and his maker (Damien Leone) about Terrifier 2;
