H2: 'Fan'tom Jam
'Fan'tom Jam has come and gone and it was a blast! Considering the Hwy 142 Bar & Grill (The Rabbit in Red) is in the middle of nowhere (well, it's really between Newborn and Shady Dale Georgia), there was a great turn out.
All the wonderful credit for this event goes straight to Michael. He organized, arranged, decorated, coordinated, acquired all the door prizes, and everything else that needed to be done to put this thing together. THANKS MICHAEL, you did a GREAT job!!!
Here are some pictures from the night. These pictures were taken by me, Michael and Amanda. Enjoy!
If you have more pictures from this fantastic evening, please email them to me so I can post them on the Blog!!

H2: Fleam on Rob Zombie's MySpace
Thanks to a heads up from Brandon, we found the hubby's picture posted on Rob's MySpace Halloween 2 Photo Albumn. I'm so proud!!
Here is the link to the Hubby's Picture on Rob Zombie's MySpace
H2: The Bonus - Sheri Zombie
I was holding onto these because we were not sure how public Sheri's part in H2 was being publicized. I was talking with Michael and he informed me that she and her costume (which you really cannot see here) has been discussed on other various websites so I figured it would be OK to publish these. Sheri (in robe) with Brandon, Leigh-Anne and Michael...

H2: Michael's Last Shoot
hi guys,
well what has become my 10th shoot for h2 today was a great one. as you guys may or may not know, today was to be my last day of location experiences. and i couldn't be happier with the cast and crew and the things they have done for us. got to alcovy high at about 3pm. met with tammy, a cool security guard i've chatted with many times throughout the month and then regina showed up. leigh-anne was soon to follow, then brandon arrived. i finally met scout today! she showed us how rob's been beating her up with the bruises she had on her arms, but she's a hell of a trooper. she made me shiver...lol it was very weird. but i would like to thank her from the bottom of my heart for being such a cool chick. definately a great end to a great month. next we saw rob and sheri pull up. we didn't want to bother them with the dog and all so when rob was walking back to his trailer he stopped and signed for us and took some photos with us. lovin his cooper shirt. we told both him and scout about "fan"tom jam at the rabbit h2 fan wrap party we were planning and they both seemed to get a kick out of it. ive got some nice door prizes for the party as well. brandon was able to meet scout again and get his mask signed by the only cast member missing, so well done brandon! we decided to get some food and headed over to rabbit (hwy 142 bar & grill) to discuss party plans with rocky. we ended up hanging out there for awhile and met a majority of the staff. we are gonna light that place up! i'll post more details on the party very soon. i can tell you that capacity is 100 people so i'll need rsvps from those planning to attend asap. the bar has a nice menu of food and serve beer and wine. when we finally left rabbit, regina headed home and me, brandon and leigh-anne headed back to the school. we weren't there 15 minutes and tyler walked out of his trailer and he signed a couple photos for me. like i've said before, i went into this with my own selfish intentions for my own personal experiences and the friends i have made along the way are now priceless to me. this whole experience has become so much more to me, the fanbase that is now attached to this blog is amazing and i can't thank regina, brandon, leigh-anne, cast and crew for making it all happen. i've been happy to report to you guys this past month and hope to meet you guys at the party. i'll update soon.
one last thing...
to rob, i want to thank you so much for this whole experience. you made me feel like a kid again this last month. i've been a huge fan for years and for you to bring something like this to my backyard, i am truly grateful.
to tyler, i want to thank you for being such a great guy to all of us. you have been one of the friendliest guys to meet. still hope to destroy you on call of duty one of these days.
to scout, you are an angel and an extremely talented actress. i'm sorry i spazzed on you earlier. pretty awkward and moving on...lol
wayne and bart, you are the men! such talented artists and pure geniuses of gore. wayne i will make it to halloweentown someday.

H2: The End
Friday, I dropped by on my last filming of H2. When I arrived, Michael was already there and we were waiting on Leigh-Anne and Brandon. Thanks to Michael, I was able to get my DVD autographed and get a picture with Scout. She was the sweetest thing. She told us that they had been shooting until 7am Friday morning. She also told us at the shoot she was cold and the rain didn't help. She showed us her bruised up arms. She's definitely a trooper. Leigh-Anne arrived right before Rob & Sheri Zombie. Sheri had her pug with her. After Rob walked her to her trailer, he came back to his and he was kind enough to sign my DVD and take a picture with me. Michael and Leigh-Anne also took pictures with him and he signed several things for Michael. Finally, Brandon arrived (you know I'm kidding) and not 15 minutes later, he had Scout's autograph on his mask. At this point, the crew was starting to clear spectators so we decided to head to the Hwy 142 Bar & Grill for dinner. We had a good meal, talked and had a genuinely great evening.
The filming is pretty much over and the Black Bunny Blog will be resuming it's nice boring, geeky and fun entries. You are welcome to hang around as long as you like. I just wanted you to know that most of the H2 posts are done. The only one I see ahead is the Fan-tom Jam Party Post and I will post some more H2 when the movie comes out in August.
I must tell everyone thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. All of those who read, who posted, who emailed and who showed up. I have met some fantastic people that I will not soon forget.
I will leave this with a couple of slide shows.
First, my Trifecta:
A group of people that I have grown close to and to who part of H2 Posts and Pictures are credited to, The H2 Bunny Crew:
Lastly, a retrospective. Some of my favorite pictures, from beginning to end.
Good bye Mr. Zombie, Mr. Mane and Ms. Taylor-Compton. It was a blast!!

H2: The Billboard
Joey, one of the blog readers,(*** CORRECTION: Amanda was kind enough to send me those pictures! ***) sent me the coolest pictures this morning. I had to email back and see where it had been taken. Turns out it was used last Friday night with a shot on Airport Rd. in Oxford. On a whim, and a REALLY out-of-the-way back road long-cut (as opposed to short-cut), I swung by there on the way home from work today and low-and-behold the billboard was still there!

H2: Picture Request
I'm writing up this post for the hubby. He was an extra both days at the Phantom Jam filming. He, of course, took no camera - too much to keep up with. So now he is looking for any pictures that anyone may have took of him. If you have any, could you please, please, please send me a copy. I would REALLY appreciate it. Below is one of the pictures that Amanda took. Thanks all!
H2: Erin & Brittany
This just goes to prove that you never know what might happen if you go play a late-night game of basketball....
This was a comment that Erin left on the 'H2: Sheri Moon Zombie' post:
"there were some kids playing basketball at the church court"
That was my niece and her friends!!!! They were playing b-ball and she said that the cast and crew invited them into eat with them later that night when they wrapped filming. She said they were by far the nicest people she has ever met (she had no idea that they were even filming a movie there!). She was TERRIFIED of Tyler Mane because he was still kind of in makeup (a little) and because of his size. He could tell she was a little wary of him and totally started picking on her and trying to get her to laugh - he even picked her up and was swinging her around. It finally worked but he kept at her for about 20 minutes. She got to meet the Zombies and she said they were cool as hell to her and her friends too. I will email a pic to you Annabella as soon as she emails it to me. I asked my niece, Brittany, if she got their autograph and she said "ohhhh, uhhh, well I didn't even think about doing that, dammit. I guess I was still in shock about meeting and eating dinner with them!"
Erin also added...
She also said that Tyler kept coming up to her and saying "how would your mom like it if she knew that you had a psycho killer for a boyfriend?" How funny! It's really cool that he has such a great sense of humor and it's typical Hollywood. I'm jealous - sounds like she had a great time.
Oh, and one more thing. She said that the food they served was unbelievable. Steak, chicken, etc. She kept saying: "Erin, they were serving REAL green beans! Real ones! It was sooo good!"
Here are a couple of pictures of Brittany and Tyler. Lucky, lucky girl!

H2: Sheri Moon Zombie
Michael, Brandon and Leigh-Anne were at the right place at the right time Friday night. Here is Michael's recap of that beautiful night ;)
do i look any different you guys? i should because i met sheri moon zombie last night. here goes the recap...
left my house around 1pm to head to oxford. got there around 2ish and didnt see any crew at base camp so i parked briefly there next to the coroner's van that they were going to film later that night. got a photo and decided i was there WAY to early. so i drove around a bit and tried to access the road they were going to be filming on at both ends and couldn't get through. i ended up parking across the street from base camp and just chilled for a bit until leigh-anne and regina showed up. next comes brandon and we chat for a bit and decide to get something to eat. base camp at this point was hopping with unloading and building, but no rob or tyler. after eating...someone who will remain nameless chose her hubby over our little excursion. j/k sweets! anyways, we decided to head down to the blockade where they would be filming until kicked out. well, the crew had moved further down the road and we decided to take a road parallel to the location to see if we could see anything. well we end up at the end of this road and asked this guy if we could scope out things from his backyard. regina, by the way, this gentleman was charlie poole! lol he was awesome and allowed us to park on his property and see what we could see. our vantage point was across a cow pasture to the road they would be shooting, but all we could see was spotlights at both ends of the road. hung out there for about an hour and decided to head back to base camp. at that point leigh-anne left and then brandon left. i was determined to leave with something so i decided to try to park in crew parking and see where that got me. there were some kids playing basketball at the church court directly behind the trailers and had an awesome spot to catch tyler and anyone else of importance. i ended up talking to some of the kids playing ball and they told me they saw a lady with blonde hair dressed in a white robe and makeup and i immediately called brandon and leigh-anne to let them know that sheri moon zombie was on set. now throughout this whole process, sheri has been the hardest to find and some rumors were that she wasn't even in ga. so after i called brandon and leigh-anne back they both bolted back to camp and we hung out for about 15-20 minutes they broke for lunch and we saw wayne and bart who have been 2 of the coolest dudes on set. they stopped and signed a couple of things and as they were chatting with us, tyler walked by. he stopped and signed for me and we chatted about the bunny blog for a bit and while all of this was going on rob and sheri walked right by us on their way to lunch. we waited for everyone to eat and then it happened...rob and sheri both walked out of catering and i bolted...yet again. i asked sheri if she would sign for me and she was very sweet and generous with her time. leigh-anne, brandon and i all ended up getting photos with sheri and chatted with rob for a bit about the good old georgia weather. they were very chill, so i am assuming they are on schedule and all is well. i was able to confirm the wrap date on 4/8. after that, we knew it wasn't gonna get better than that so we left. one side note, after talking with rob and tyler, all photos posted here will go through them and there will be an open line of communication with them about prior things posted so if you see photos or comments deleted that why. so i won't be posting my sheri photo here until can get confirmation from rob that its ok. all in all it was one of the best experiences thus far. so in conclusion...rob is still brilliant, sheri is still radiant, tyler is still cool as hell and wayne and bart are almost like old friends by now. thanks to brandon, leigh-anne and regina for chillin with me. the h2 crew will never die!

H2: Calling all Phantom Jam Extras
I have been inspired by a blog reader. If you were an extra for the Phantom Jam shoot, send me a picture of you in your costume - like the one you would have submitted to the Production Company or even one from the set as long as it doesn't show anything else. Also, let me know what name to use for your picture ;) I would love to put them on the blog.
I want to see how many I, and the other blog readers, can identify when the movie comes out! I'll shoot for a April 3rd or 4th post date.
Thanks in advance!

H2: Brandon's Mask
Brandon and Leigh-Anne braved the rain Wednesday night to go out to the Phantom Jam shoot. Brandon was/is on a mission. He just received his Myers mask and has a limited time to get it signed by everyone. He got a really big head start that night. And thanks to Leigh-Anne, there is a great photographic record. As always, thanks to Brandon and Leigh-Anne for this post!
H2: The Bad News
First and foremost, I cannot thank everyone for reading the Black Bunny blog. The entire H2 coverage started purely by accident.
The morning of February 26th, I decided, with my husband, to stop on the square in Covington to take photos. No one was there but a couple of extremely friendly security people. I, never in a million years, dreamt that I would see Rob Zombie walk down the street much less get a photo with him and learn that he was such a great guy. That was how it all began. The fact that the farthest I ever traveled to a shoot was only about 20 minutes helped. The absolutely best thing to come out of this are the people that I have met along the way and I'm not talking about the movie stars. I have met some phenomenal people through the blog. All the way from the people who have come up to me and let me know that they read the blog to the ones I now email on almost a daily basis. Everyone has been fantastic!
If this is starting to sound like a 'Dear John/Jane' letter, it kinda is.... The closer the wrap gets, the more people are showing at locations, people who are breaking all the etiquitte rules and more sensitive information is being leaked through the comments and the internet in general everyday.
Everyone I have met on the sets from local law enforcement, set security, crew, P.A.'s to the folks like Tyler Mane and Rob Zombie, I could not have asked for a better experience. They have all gone above and beyond to cater to the fans. I can not imagine how they could have done more for me, for all of the fans.
Combine that information with the fact that fan photos with Tyler are now being limited and and in some cases completely banned because of internet leaks and it is leading down a path that makes the fans look bad. I cannot contribute to that situation. I have too much respect for the hard work that security, the crew and the stars, especially Mr. Zombie is putting into this film to jeopardize what is left of their film schedule. (Yes, I'm a southern girl and we use 'Mr.' when we want to show our respect.)
With that being said, I will post no more information about shoot locations. I will delete any new information about shoot locations and if requested will delete past posts/comments about shoot locations.
I will continue to post information and pictures after the fact. Again, I will remove or delete any information or pictures, if requested.
Due to all of these issues (plus others), my photobucket account is now passworded and all blog photos will be displayed in a slideshow.
I'm sorry it has come to this but I have had a blast and will continue to post some H2 things.
Please comment back to me. I kinda feel like a heel for having to take this stance but it is simply the right thing to do.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Not a real interesting post but again, I want to keep as much of the information together as possible...

Newborn, GA
Brackett House
I believe these were primarily interior shots of the Brackett House.
March 13, 2009
Hwy 142 and Pennington Road
Farrar, GA (Shady Dale)
Exterior Rabbit in Red
This is where Ezra Buzzington was filmed as the beer truck driver (at least one place). I believe they may have done some flash-back shots. We saw young Micheal Myers ‘photographic’ double. This is also where 3 of the murders were filmed. I know one was Ezra (as Ned). Unfortunately, they cleared all spectators before filming the murder scenes.
March 16, 2009
2176 Monticello Street – Therapist’s Office (Interior)
4135 Conyers Street – Mya’s Apt (Interior)
Covington, GA
They filmed in two different locations. One was at a small house on Conyers Street. Here, they filmed the interior of Mya’s apartment. The second location was at one of the antebellum homes on Monticello Street. Here, they filmed interior shots of the Therapist’s office.

Exterior filming of the courthouse. Scenes with Brad Dourif and Bill Fagerbakke.

H2: Scout as Magenta
Here are a couple of pictures from blog readers - thanks to Leigh-Anne and Will...
H2: Phantom Jam
Today was the first time I left my house since Friday. I went to the Phantom Jam shoot. I arrived around 1'ish. I parked on the Crew side of the block and walked around to where the other spectators had gathered. I saw some familiar faces from the Rabbit in Red shoot and met some new friends (Will, I cannot remember your stepbrother's name, I'm sorry. Email me and remind me :)
I arrived in time to watch the extra's be shuttled from the tent and into the "party" (also known as the Newborn Fertilizer Plant building). At that point, there wasn't much going on. I took some random exterior shots. We noticed several people dressed as Rocky Horror characters walk down to the set. They hung outside awhile. Then Zombie came out and talked to them. Then the Crew brought some chairs out for them. We figured they were "somebody" but I didn't learn til later that it was Scout and friends :) I was able to snap a few distant shots before I heard to immortal words "No pictures." If I'm lucky, I'll have some photos from some other blog readers to post.
After about an hour, I wasn't feeling very well and decided it was time to go. I walked back to my vehicle and snapped a quick photo of, what I think, was the entrance to the Halloween party. I also saw several people working on a van tricked out with shag carpet and black-light posters. My guess, it will play a part in the movie. Don't know for sure but that is my bet.
Here are some of my photos from today. Enjoy!

H2: OK, No Flordia
OK, the Fla. trip was canceled (at least for me). I was still kicking a fever this morning (Monday) and opted out. I didn't want the other 5 people in the van to get sick.
But one piece of H2 news. My hubby got his call back for the Phantom Jam shoot! He is supposed to be at the Starlight Drive-In at 7:30am Tuesday and Wednesday morning.
I'll keep you updated.

H2: The Forgotten Post
Duh!! I had one more set of pictures to share before my break in Fla. I mentioned in an earlier post I was able to get some decent pictures of the Myers house the day after the filming. Here they are:
