CSI: Miami – Episode 8.16 – L.A.
Air Date: March 1, 2010

Wow! Here’s some very cool spoiler info for the episode coming up, directed by Rob Zombie. All the build-up about Jesse’s secret behavior, which we just found out had to do with the murder of his wife, will be dealt with. And Horatio is going to Los Angeles to help clear Jesse.

But even bigger than all that is the list of guest stars that Rob Zombie has enlisted for the episode. He’s worked with them all before in his movies, so he knows what mood they can bring to the episode. His work is always extremely suspenseful and often macabre, so this should be a very cool episode!!

As [Rob] Zombie revealed on his blog, Malcolm McDowell, William Forsythe, Michael Madsen and Paul Blackthorne all are on board for the special outing, which is titled “L.A.” and set to air March 1.

McDowell, of course, played Dr. Loomis in Zombie’s reboot of the ‘Halloween‘ franchise, while Forsythe was the sheriff in ‘The Devil’s Rejects.’

Madsen, a journeyman film actor, boasts this tie to ‘Miami’: He costarred in the 2005 TV series ‘Tilt’ with Eddie Cibrian. Blackthorne’s most recent TV credits include ‘Lipstick Jungle‘ and an episode of ‘Burn Notice.’

Storylinewise, Zombie’s “L.A.” revolves around a murder perhaps committed by Bruce Enright – the same man suspected of killing the wife of CSI Jesse Cardoza (Cibrian). Blackthorne plays Enright, while Madsen is Coop, the business tycoon’s bodyguard.

McDowell plays Enright’s very high-priced (and very sleazy) lawyer, while Forsythe turns up as LAPD captain with whom Jesse has a rocky past.

Also putting in appearance during the episode is Zombie’s wife and frequent “muse,” Sheri Moon Zombie, playing an L.A. photographer. [Source: Fancast]
