Joe Bob Briggs is the world’s foremost drive-in movie critic. His wisecracking take on B-movies was featured on two long-running late-night television shows, first on The Movie Channel and then on TNT. That tradition continues with his latest series, The Last Drive-In, currently featured on AMC's Shudder streaming platform. Briggs is also a successful investigative journalist, actor, and author. His nine books include Joe Bob Goes to the Drive-In (1987) and Profoundly Disturbing: Shocking Movies that Changed History (2003). He has appeared in several movies, including Casino, Face/Off, and Great Balls of Fire, and continues to be a regular host and Master of Ceremonies at film festivals and conventions. Joe Bob is currently touring with his critically acclaimed "How Rednecks Saved Hollywood," a one-man comedy show that traces the entire history of the redneck, as told through movies, from 16th-century Scotland to the present. Reviewers have described the show as, "Part history lesson, part clip show, and all entertaining, Joe Bob's How Rednecks Saved Hollywood is the man wholly in his element: hilarious, insightful, and courageously plain spoken" (TenneseeHorror.com) and "...a rollicking yet well-researched history of the origin of rednecks and our culture's love-hate affair with them" (Queen City Nerve). Briggs hosted Joe Bob’s Drive-In Theater for eleven years on The Movie Channel and MonsterVision for five years on TNT. During the course of his hosting career, he has executive-produced 20,000 hours of television and become the leading authority on exploitation and genre films. In 2018, The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs broke the Internet and is now in its 5th season on Shudder. John Waters said of Joe Bob, "[He] is the Henri Langlois of exploitation films. He’s already a cinema saint, and if I were you, I’d pray for his guidance.”

Every self-respecting horror fan remembers the first time they saw Bill Moseley – grinning like a demented Cheshire cat with a mouthful of festering tombstone teeth; pale, peeling skin and sporting a foppish black Sonny Bono Wig screaming “Music is my LIFE!” At the same time, the twitchy weirdo is flicking a Bic to the end of a rusty coat hanger, absent-mindedly scraping his diseased scalp with the heated hook and eating the scabby spoils. This, of course, was Moseley as ChopTop, the madder than mad, larger than life and sicker than sick younger brother of cannibal chili king Drayton Sawyer in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2. From the moment Moseley skeezed on screen in Tobe Hooper’s outrageous sequel to TCM, he owned the film, essaying the kind of scene (and scalp)-chewing character that would be forever bronzed in horror history. The fact that some saw-wielding goon with human rawhide on his face eventually blustered in seemed like an afterthought, and even the presence of screen vet Dennis Hopper running around screeching mad didn’t make much difference. It was Moseley who stole the show. But where did he come from, this freakish form of spastic evil energy? What tortured paths and crooked miles did he walk before he became what he’d become? Not surprisingly, like many cinematic icons of horror, his roots were both benign and humble – the antithesis of his delightfully dreadful destiny. Believe it or not, Moseley was a man of letters. Born in Connecticut, Moseley’s parents enrolled the future screen fiend in The Hotchkiss School, an elite boarding institution in Lakeville, CT (yes it’s true, ChopTop was once a preppie… now that’s scary). His stellar academic career would eventually lead to Yale University, where he graduated with a BA in English. After Yale, Moseley relocated to New York City and became a freelance writer for prestigious periodicals like Omni, National Lampoon, Rolling Stone, Interview and Psychology Today while simultaneously finding work in a myriad of Soho art galleries. From political ad writing, to being a gossip columnist for Showtime TV and, surprisingly, even Editor-In-Chief of CB Bible Magazine, Moseley had done it all when it came to his publishing career. The jack-of-all-trades Renaissance man wrote, funded, and starred (as The Hitchhiker) in a wigged- out parody of one of his favorite films, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, called The Texas Chainsaw Manicure. An impressively imaginative, dead-on rip on the original, the film eventually ended up in the mitts of Massacre auteur Tobe Hooper, who was so impressed he promised Moseley a role in a proposed sequel to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre that he had in the works. Two years later, reps from Cannon Pictures had him on the horn and within days the deal was sealed. Moseley, metal plate fastened securely to his clean-shaved bald pate stepped into the bloody boots of The Hitchhiker’s severely unhealthy twin brother, ChopTop, and a new horror icon was born. In the years to follow, Moseley would work continuously in front of the camera, appearing in Chuck (The Mask) Russell’s successful remake of The Blob, Clint Eastwood’s Pink Cadillac, the anti- Christmas slasher sequel Silent Night Deadly Night 3, Tom Savini’s remake of Romero’s Night of the Living Dead and Sam Raimi’s third entry in his Evil Dead series, Army of Darkness. And while the celebrated cult actor continued developing his professional career, his more intimate and personal career as father and family man was also blossoming. At the same time, another man was slowly building his own blood spattered empire, its foundation consisting of adolescent obsessions with comic books, exploitation pictures, dirty punk rock ‘n’ roll, and gory horror movies. That man was Rob Zombie. After a string of wildly successful albums both with and without his mutant metal band White Zombie, the ambitious musician began exploring the idea of making his first film, a picture that would tip its machete to not only the great shockers of the 1970s, but more specifically to a movie that had become part of his DNA: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2. Zombie’s first order of business was hiring his hero, ‘ole ChopTop himself, Bill Moseley for one of the starring roles. Zombie’s controversial House of 1000 Corpses would become a massive cult favorite – which spawned an even more vicious and critically embraced sequel, The Devil’s Rejects – which also landed Moseley a prime role in HBO’s dark and delicious sideshow-set melodrama Carnivàle. As homicidal artist/serial killer Otis B. Driftwood in both House and Rejects, Moseley’s bizarro charms would be retooled for a whole new generation of counter culture enthusiasts, who immediately catapulted him into horror superstardom. Now a genre icon twice over, Moseley lives a quiet life in Hollywood with his two daughters, two cats, a cantankerous parrot named Mr. Hanky, and his wife Lucinda, the love of his life. He’s a hysterically funny, bright, approachable...

With over 30 films and 200 hours of television experience, versatility, discipline and a solid work ethic have been the underpinnings of Adrian’s very successful 30-year acting career. Internationally recognized for his role as Duncan Macleod, in Highlander-The Series”, Adrian has also produced and directed both film and television projects. Born and raised in London, England, Adrian arrived in the United States in 1984, working as a choreographer and a model. After a year of taking acting classes with acting coaches, Ivana Chubbuck and Roy London, his first series role came on the ABC television show, The Colbys. This led to a role in the Broadway play, "Bouncers", in 1987, a guest role on the television show, Beauty and the Beast (1987) and his first film role in the film Last Rites (1988), with Tom Berenger. After a starring role in Roger Corman’s,” Masque of the Red Death “(1989),he became a series regular in the second season of the television series “War of the Worlds”(1988), followed by four episode arc on the MGM Dark Shadows series. Fast becoming known for his solid work ethic, CBS cast him as the lead in the television pilot, The Owl (1990). Although the series wasn’t picked up, Adrian didn’t stop working, guest starring on Angela Lansbury’s “Murder She Wrote”, and co starring opposite the up-and-coming Sandra Bullock in "Love Potion Number 9". But it would be his next role that would bring him international recognition...that of "Duncan MacLeod" in the syndicated series, Highlander (1991-1997). During the 6 year run, Adrian directed four of the series’ episodes, including the epic 100thepisode, shot in Bordeaux France. Three of these episodes were voted in the top ten best of series for the 117 episode run. When the series ended in 1997, although he was in demand, Paul wanted to go back to his acting roots. After studying with renowned acting coach Larry Moss, he worked on John Landis’ romantic comedy, “Susan’s Plan”, the action thriller, “Dead Men Can’t Dance”, and helped found Actors in Process, a theater group, where actors could meet weekly to ”showcase” current work and receive positive critique from their peers. After two years, a production of an original play, "Things Just aChange", was showcased at the Odyssey theater in Los Angeles, with Paul in the lead role. The success of the Highlander series however, was still current, leading Paul to be offered to star opposite Christopher Lambert in “Highlander : Endgame”(2000), to take over the franchise’s lead position. Other films followed, including the now cult classic “The Breed” (2001), shot in Budapest, Hungary where Adrian met his future wife, Alexandra. In 2001, Lionsgate signed Adrian to a 3 picture deal, as well as to star in and executive produce the Sci Fi action thriller, “Tracker” (created by Gil Grant) for Lionsgate Television.

Adrian continued to work on films such as “Nemesis Game” (Lionsgate) and “Tides of War”, along with the Spelling Television and Paramount Pictures’ hit TV series, ”Charmed”.

After that came, ”The Legend of Roanoke”(2007) and the Sci Fi Action Comedy “The Immortal Voyages of Captain Drake”(2009), a film in which Paul choreographed all the fight scenes. Always looking for interesting roles, Adrian found himself in Hungary and Tunisia, filming the Seven Arts production, ”Nine Miles Down”(2009), that he now considers one of his most emotionally challenging roles.
