It's not often one pulls off a sequel. And in OUR sequel with Ellie Cornell, she makes good on her promise to return to the podcast to help us celebrate Scary Movie Month, joining host CH to talk about her legacy role as Rachel Carruthers in 'Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers' and 'Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers.' From the casting (Ellie was actually NOT director Dwight Little's first choice) to her chemistry with co-star Danielle Harris (they are still friends to this day) to the unique experience of filming iconic scenes like the rooftop chase (yes, the infamous protruding-nail-injury-stop-filming-for-a-second scene) and the climactic truck showdown (spoiler: the truck was not moving), Ellie shares her insights and reflections on the life-changing role. Whether you're a die-hard 'Halloween' fan, a horror genre fan, or just a film fan in general, this episode is a treat for anyone who appreciates the art of storytelling, and the enduring nostalgic look at the magic behind the scares.   Show Notes Ellie's full list of film, television and producing credits can be found on her IMDb profile. 'Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers' is here 'Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers' is here HalloweenMovies.com is the the official Web site of the 'Halloween' film series. Director Dwight Little's book, 'Still Rolling: Inside the Hollywood Dream Factory', discusses Ellie's casting as Rachel Carruthers for 'Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers.' In chatting with CH, Ellie recalls that both Genie Francis and the late Rebecca Shaffer may have also been in consideration for the role of Rachel. Ellie was interviewed for two forthcoming books 'Horror in Haddonfield: 'Halloween's' Untold Stories' by Andrew Grevas, available for pre-order via Tucker Press 'Seasonal Screams: A History of Holiday Horrors' by Adrian Roe, available on Amazon. Ellie's co-star, Danielle Harris, has a podcast called Talk Scary to Me on which Ellie will be a future guest; it is available on all major podcast platforms. The two horror films Ellie had seen before she was cast as Rachel Carruthers were 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'Halloween 3: Season of the Witch'. The scene from the original 'Halloween' that CH used as her final monologue in her Acting I class during her senior year at university was this scene; CH repeated ONLY the lines spoken by Dr. Loomis in this scene. Previously mentioned episodes: Our When 'Thriller' Met 'Halloween' episode was our fourth episode of our podcast, recorded in October 2023, and gives a comical account of how host CH went from being unable to watch anything scary to mastering scary movies. Our Share the Chair episode with Ellie from April of 2024 was a discussion of her life journey as an artist on the whole.

Click to Subscribe:  https://bit.ly/Youtube-Subscribe-SoapDirt General Hospital is bringing back a familiar face. Lucky Spencer, portrayed by Jonathan Jackson, returns on August 23rd, coming back from what seems to be a dangerous situation possibly connected to the notorious Cassadine family. Lucky's return might be in time for Lulu Spencer's (Emme Rylan) life and death crisis, but he is not a match for a liver transplant.  GH also sees Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss) remain in prison. Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez) and Rocco Falceroni (Finn Frances Carr) might be potential matches. Lucky is in his own life and death drama, possibly held captive by the Cassadine family.  The ABC soap opera star Jonathan Jackson mentioned that his return to the show is a substantial run, unlike his brief 2015 return. His return to the show was mainly influenced by his on-screen mother, Genie Francis. As he returns, Lucky seems to be more like his father, Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary), than ever before. His return also sparks the possibility of a reunion with his mother, Laura, and new brother Ace Cassadine (Jay and Joey Clay).  Visit our General Hospital section of Soap Dirt:  https://soapdirt.com/category/general-hospital/ Listen to our Podcasts: https://soapdirt.podbean.com/ Check out our always up-to-date General Hospital Spoilers page at: https://soapdirt.com/general-hospital-spoilers/ Check Out our Social Media...

On this special Daytime Confidential episode Luke Kerr, Jamey Giddens, Mike Jubinville and Jillian Bowe dive into the news that General Hospital executive producer Frank Valentini has bumped soap opera legend Genie Francis to recurring. The DC gang explores the importance of Genie Francis and her character Laura Spencer having an active role on the show and in Port Charles. In the era of Time's Up and pay disparity revelations why are General Hospital's actresses paid so much less than their male counterparts? They look at a timeline of Valentini's decisions and the negative impact his "Friends of Frank" casting style has had both onscreen and off. Why has Valentini become caught up in casting wars with other shows or hired his actor's boyfriends in roles fans do not care about when General Hospital has a rich history of characters that could be portrayed by these same actor? Under Valentini's stewardship General Hospital has gone from having a long track record as one of the best soaps at casting new generations of actors–like Genie Francis, Kin Shriner, Anthony Geary, Steve Burton, Maurice Benard, Vanessa Marcil, Sarah Brown, Tyler Christopher, Amber Tamblyn, Jonathan Jackson, Scott Clifton and Drew Garrett–to arguably the worst at casting fresh faces. Should Valentini be fired if the debacle with Genie Francis' contract is not rectified? All this and much more on this special Daytime Confidential episode!

On today’s Daytime Confidential podcast Luke, Jamey, Jillian, Regan and Melodie dish the latest All My Children, The Bold and the Beautiful, Days of our Lives, General Hospital, One Life to Live and The Young and the Restless storylines and news, including: Oprah’s must watch Legendary Soap Opera Spectacular. What did the DC gang think of Oprah’s guests Anthony Geary, Genie Francis, Susan Lucci, Michael E. Knight, Debbi Morgan, Darnell Williams and Jeanne Cooper? Based on Genie Francis comments, did any of the DC gang ever expect to see her back on General Hospital? One of the loudest cheers from the Oprah audience came when Oprah mentioned Michael Nader as Dimitri Marick among Erica’s ex-husbands. Wouldn’t it be great if Dimitri returned to Pine Valley? Last week Luke and Regan weren’t happy with All My Children, but Jamey has been enjoying it. Hear what he thinks about the current state of Pine Valley. The Bold and the Beautiful celebrates its 6000th episode with a special episode about lung cancer. While the story is poignant and relevant should B&B be careful of becoming to preachy? Jillian weighs in on Thomas and Dayzee. Jamey has been holding in a Days of our Lives rant for a while, but enough is enough. Jamey goes off on the abysmal state of NBC’s last soap. From Jennifer’s organ harvesting storyline to fake Rafe, nothing escapes his ire. Why isn’t DAYS trying to get things in shape now, instead of worrying about it later when an axe is swinging over its head? Who is sabotaging Brenda and Sonny’s wedding on General Hospital? Regan comments on the fallout from the revelation of Michael’s prison rape. Lucky gets shot in the head, which inspires Mel to start calling him UnLucky. The Buchanan sister’s wedding was ruined by the revelations of Clint’s manipulations, but not all the DC gang enjoyed it. For the first time in years Michael Easton actually acted and made us feel sorry for John McBain. Luke is upset that Jack will be revealed as Shane’s cyber bully. How will Farah Fath hold up opposite of Kassie DePaiva and Trevor St. John when the boy’s parents face off? Paul Rauch is out at The Young and the Restless. What does this mean for Y&R, if anything? Wilson Bethel may return to Genoa City as Ryder. Mel comments on the fallout from Cane’s death. Jamey loved Chloe telling Jana to get out of her house. Luke loved the Chloe and Nikki scenes at Glow Worm. Ronan disappeared after the transplant. The DC gang shares their first impressions of Nate. All this and much more on today’s show.
