Sequel
A film suggested in the credits for Bubba Ho-tep, Bubba Nosferatu: Curse of the She-Vampires, was discussed. In a DVD "making of" documentary, Coscarelli said this was originally intended as a joke; however, due to positive fan response to the film, a sequel was a possibility. He then went on to speculate he would like to make a sequel documenting the production of a 'lost' Elvis movie from the 1950s or 1960s. Bubba Nosferatu never entered production, though Bruce Campbell, Don Coscarelli and Paul Giamatti (as Colonel Tom Parker) were reportedly attached to the project.
In late August 2007, Campbell said he was no longer involved in Bubba Nosferatu. Joe Lansdale later confirmed that the project was dead.
On Oct. 30, 2008, Ain't It Cool News posted an exclusive interview with Paul Giamatti — still slated to appear as Colonel Tom Parker — in whch he said the movie Bubba Nosferatu is still alive. Giamatti said that Ron Perlman is "interested in playing Elvis."
On December 11, 2008, In an interview on the Cort and Fatboy Show Campbell stated that he will not be part of the film due to creative differences and writer changes.
During the Monster Mania Convention on March 14, 2009, Coscarelli stated that the film will likely be released sometime between 2010-2012. Don also said that future Bubba sequels may have different actors playing Elvis each time.
