Sorry we weren't able to present the Tony Todd interview as originally scheduled today.

We will try to have him on our show sometime in the future.

In the meantime, please listen to our Ashley Bell interview from last week -- if you haven't already. She was great in THE LAST EXORCISM and has just signed on for THE SUMMONING, another horror flick, which will be released in October of 2011.
