Behind the Mask 2

Ever since a sequel was announced during the Weekend of Horrors panel this writer had the privilege of hosting alongside the crew from Scott Glosserman's Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon a few months back, we here at Dread Central have been giddy over the promise of more exploits from one of the newest iconic villains of the horror genre and seeing what happens next with those who have the misfortune of being mixed up in Leslie's twisted little world.

It's been a while since last we reported on any movement regarding Scott Glosserman's sequel to the cult hit Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon, but things are officially looking a bit sunnier for Leslie's return. Read on for the details.

Recently we got the chance to speak with Scott Glosserman, director and co-writer of Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon and its upcoming sequel Before the Mask: The Return of Leslie Vernon.

Alrighty then! Since last we announced what you need to do to get your hands on the official Before the Mask: The Return of Leslie Vernon Blu-ray and DVD, everyone's been asking: What will these special packages include? Read on for details!

Quick question for you ... if the sequel to Behind the Mask was coming out, say, next week, you'd buy it, right? I know we would. After the first flick, who doesn't want a sequel? Here's the deal ... not only can you reserve yourself a copy of the sequel on DVD and Blu-ray RIGHT NOW, but by doing so you'll also be helping to get the flick made! How friggin' cool is that?!?

Some cool news is coming out of the Before the Mask: The Return of Leslie Vernon camp. They have passed the $6,000 mark in their campaign to finance the prequel/sequel to the amazing Behind the Mask: The Rise and Fall of Leslie Vernon, and to celebrate, they have released three pages of the script!

With the Creation LA Weekend of Horrors in its second day, some REALLY interesting news came out of the Behind the Mask reunion panel just minutes ago, and being that we were on the scene, we've got all the latest gory details on Before the Mask: The Return of Leslie Vernon.

There's little doubt that within our genre a serial killer who goes by the name of Leslie Vernon has accrued quite the fanbase. Sure, he may not have the sequel or even body count of horror heavyweights like Jason, Freddy, or Michael, but the kid has spunk and can move quick like a cheetah!

Don’t know about other folks, but I LOVED the 2006 horror spoof, Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (spoof isn’t the best word choice, but a movie like BTM really is unclassifiable).

It cannot be stressed enough that if you have not seen Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (review), then you should go out and get it right now. Hollywood has made it clear to us this year that all the best horror films are going straight to DVD or have to fight tooth and nail just to be considered for theatrical release.
