Documentary Movie Haunted Thrills To Get Release in 2021

RPLLC and GHOST CLINIC FILMS are pleased to present HAUNTED THRILLS (2021) coming to a variety of platforms in November 2021 after its world premiere in October.
Haunted Thrills is an indie documentary featurette companion to Mike Lyddon’s horror anthology movie WITCH TALES aka CUENTOS DE LA BRUJA (2020). Lyddon lived in New Orleans and on the gulf coast for many years where he made several films including Cut Up, Zombie! Vs. Mardi Gras, First Man on Mars, and Horror Anthology movie vols. 1 and 2. The Haunted Thrills documentary looks at many of the publishers and artists who drew horror comics that were considered so extreme that it led to the Comics Code Authority stamp, one of the largest cases of industrial censorship in U.S. history.
Everyone knows about Stan Lee and Marvel Comics but few know that he was one of the original pre-code horror editors when he worked for ATLAS in the late 1940s.  We interview two artists who worked at Atlas, Joe Sinnott and Vic Carrabotta.
Also, we speak with the great Everett Raymond Kinstler about his days with AVON and ZIFF-DAVIS publishers.
