Rob Zombie to host show for TCM

Hitch Magazine reports the killer news that Rob Zombie will be hosting a weekly horror showcase called TCM UNDERGROUND.

Zombie will be personally selecting the films to be broadcast. The titles announced thus far include George Romero’s THE CRAZIES, Francis Ford Coppola’s DEMENTIA 13 (produced by Roger Corman), Leonard Castle’s THE HONEYMOON KILLERS, Seijun Suzuki’s TOKYO DRIFTER and Ed Wood’s BRIDE OF THE MONSTER. And because they’re on TCM, that means they’ll be shown uncut, uninterrupted and hopefully in widescreen.

This sounds really cool, especially since there’s not really anything like it on television right now. Rob Zombie’s name should be a big draw for a demographic that doesn’t normally tune in to Turner Classic Movies. Now I just need to get cable!
