Relive The Horror Of High School With Karate King’s ‘High School Holocaust’
Karate King & The TCR have compiled yet another awesome collaboration album, this time taking everyone back to High School for some serious slashing and mayhem! Titled High School Holocaust – Part 1, the album is the soundtrack to a completely imaginary film and features artists such as Karate King, Cluster Buster, Python Blue, Marko Maric, and much more!
The synopsis for the “film” reads:
The year is 1983. For the students of Beaver High, spring break is just around the corner. It’s a time of carefreeness, partying and amorous adventure. But a mysterious creature appears from the shadows, thirsting for blood. Armed with a cleaver and wearing the high school mascot’s beaver mask, it kills off the students in increasingly grotesque and gruesome ways. First there was Jason, then there was Freddy, now get ready… for a NEW wave of terror: High School Holocaust. The class of ’83 just got dam’d.
High School Holocaust is available as a ‘Name Your Own’ price release over at Bandcamp. I highly recommend tossing these guys a few bucks if you enjoy the album as every one of them works their asses off to provide incredible, engaging, and exciting music for you.

The Lost Boys: A New Musical officially kicked off on Broadway last month, and Deadline now reports that the show’s Broadway run has been extended into next year.
The show was originally set to run through November, but Deadline reports that The Lost Boys: A New Musical “has released a block of tickets through Sunday, March 7, 2027.”
The news comes in the wake of The Lost Boys: A New Musical becoming the most Tony-nominated musical of the season with twelve nominations including Best Musical.
Additionally, “The Lost Boys will launch a North American National Tour in Spring 2028, at Playhouse Square in Cleveland. Additional cities and tour dates will be announced later.”
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is of course an adaptation of the 1987 horror classic from director Joel Schumacher, with the cast including Ali Louis Bourzgui as lead vampire David (originally played by Kiefer Sutherland), Maria Wirries as Star (originally played by Jami Gertz), and LJ Benet as the soon-to-be-turned Michael (originally played by Jason Patric).
The horror musical’s cast also includes Shoshana Bean as Lucy Emerson, Benjamin Pajak as Sam Emerson, Paul Alexander Nolan as Max, Jennifer Duka as Alan Frog, Miguel Gil as Edgar Frog, Brian Flores as Marko, Sean Grandillo as Dwayne, and Dean Maupin as Paul.
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is Directed by Michael Arden, featuring Music and Lyrics by The Rescues, Book by David Hornsby & Chris Hoch, Story by James Jeremias & Janice Fischer, and Produced by James Carpinello, Marcus Chait & Patrick Wilson (The Conjuring) by special arrangement with Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures.
When a mother and her two teenage sons move to Santa Carla in desperate need of a fresh start, they soon uncover the darker side of this sunny coastal community. While Lucy tries to piece her family’s life back together, Michael keeps pulling away in search of belonging.
As he finds connection with a local rock band and its charismatic leader, his younger brother Sam comes face-to-face with a terrifying reality: When night falls, Michael’s new friends are even more dangerous than they first appeared.
Joel Schumacher directed the original The Lost Boys vampire movie in 1987, wherein two brothers move to a new town and discover that the area is a haven for vampires.
