Top 8 Up And Coming Genre Directors - Episode 273 - Horror News Radio

We get a glimpse as "Crazy Evil" with the Nicolas Cage film Mandy. Vanessa squeals with glee as Shudder announces Joe Bob Briggs is returning to TV with The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on Friday, July 13. The world bids a fond farewell to a prolific, influential, and often controversial genre writer Harlan Ellison. And, the Grue-Crew discuss 8 directors that have directed genre films within the last 18 month and have impressed us to include them in the top up and coming genre directors.  Join Dave Dreher, Doc Rotten, Christopher G. Moore, and Vanessa Thompson as we discuss Horror News of the Week and review the latest horror offerings.
