Joe Bob Briggs Returns To Shudder Tomorrow Night With Halloween Hoedown With A Couple Special Guests

Continuing my annual tradition of ruining the Halloween season and making everyone say “Joe Bob, what you’re doing here has nothing to do with Halloween!”, I will be hosting a double feature about unconventional serial killers called HALLOWEEN HOEDOWN next Friday October 8th, but to cover myself I have two rarely-interviewed guests who pretty much own the holiday: David Gordon Green, director of HALLOWEEN 2018 and the upcoming HALLOWEEN KILLS, and Jason Blum, founder of Blumhouse, Hollywood’s modern house of movie horror. There’s also a special mystery guest who will rock us into the Halloween spirit, no matter how many factual blunders I make. Both films will be available on Shudder TV Livestream in the US and Canada on 10/8 and then on demand on 10/10. You can also check out Joe Bob in these towns: AND SEE JOE BOB IN PERSON AT THESE EVENTS! * 10/9 How Rednecks Saved Hollywood, Columbus, OH. Tickets * 10/22-10/24 Monster-Mania, Oaks, PA. Tickets * 10/30 Scarefaire, Victorville, CA. Tickets *11/13 How Rednecks Saved Hollywood, Atlanta, GA. Tickets * 11/19-11/21 Preserve Halloween Festival, Irving, TX. Tickets
