In a recent interview with UHM, writer/director Tim Sullivan revealed that he hopes to finally begin filming mid-July. He also gave us some details on the new characters we'll see in the sequel...

"We will have Scarlet Red, the Mayor’s virginal young daughter; virginal, that is, not by choice, but thanks to the very unique chastity belt the mayor has designed for her, crafty devil that he is. In the film, Scarlet will be played by Amy Baniecki, whom female wrestling fans may know better as Cry Baby. And we also introduce Tony Todd character, Jim Crow, who joins Johnny Legend as the latest Strolling Minstrel and whose Haitian heritage and dealings with voodoo figures prominently in the bringing about the “curse”. Last but definitely not lest, there’s Doc Tickles, who will be played by Bill Moseley."

You can read more on the project and the 2001 Maniacs comic, which serves as a prequel to the films by clicking the link on your left. As some of you may be aware, due to a misunderstanding with a few overzealous security guards, Tim suffered injuries during the Driftwood premiere last October. Cival and criminal law suits have been filed.

I've updated the cast list, with a number of the lead maniacs from the previous film returning for the sequel.

Added to the database. Although I received the script back in May I was told not to reveal anything on the project until I was given the "okay". Well, I never got that "okay" and instead Fango was first to reveal details on the upcoming sequel. I can say that having read the script we're pretty much going to get the same kind of gore, sex, humor, and mayhem as we did with the first, which is a good thing. Eli Roth's Raw Nerve won't be working with Tim this time 'round and it's said that filming may begin this Fall.
