Audio Interview With Steve Dash Posted

There have been several actors who have appeared in the Friday The 13th films as Jason Voorhees but the very first Jason was Steve Dash.  He starred in Friday The 13th Part 2.  (If you remember Jason’s mom was the killer in the first installment.)  Steve was a guest at this years Full Moon Tattoo And Horror Convention in Nashville Tennessee.  He was nice enough to take some time out of his Sunday morning to talk with me for Monsters From The Basement.  We talked about how he got his start in show business on up to the projects he is working on now.  Be sure to check out our interview with Steve Dash!!

Audio Interview With John Kassir Posted

jk

Who can forget the HBO series “Tales From The Crypt” and the host of the show The Crypt Keeper?  The one thing about the show that stood out was his voice.  The voice of The Crypt Keeper was supplied by John Kissar.  John was a guest at last years Days Of The Dead Convention.  He was nice enough to take a few minutes out of his Sunday morning to sit down and talk with me.  We talked about his carreer from Star Search all the way up to his part in the new film “Jack The Giant Slayer”.  I really enjoyed doing this interview and I hope you will enjoy it as well!

Viviana Chavez first got interested in acting while she was in high school after appearing in some school productions.  She fell in love with being on stage and hasn’t stopped since then.  She was cast as Miranda in the first season of the AMC hit show “The Walking Dead”.  Since then she has had parts on “Homeland”, “Bethany” and “It’s Supernatural” as well as several web series.  Viviana was a guest at the Full Moon Tattoo And Horror Fest this past fall.  I was really happy to get the chance to interview her and had a great time with her.  This is one lady that I think we will be seeing a lot more of in the future!

Kevin Galbraith never intended to get into acting, but he answered a casting call on Facebook and became a cast member of the hit AMC TV show “The Walking Dead”.  Kevin has appeared in several scenes of the show as one of the walkers.  He was the “swamp zombie” that Carl was throwing rocks at and was also the zombie that killed Dale as well as other scenes.  Kevin was a guest at the Murfreesboro Anime And Comic Convention last month.  We sit down and had a wonderful talk about the show, cast and his plans for the future.  I hope you enjoy my interview with Kevin Galbraith.

Phantasm Audio Interviews Posted

phantasm1.jpg

I love it when horror conventions feature cast reunions from my favorite films.  This past fall, The Full Moon Tattoo And Horror Convention in Chattanooga, Tn did just that.  Three of the stars of Phantasm, A. Michael Baldwin, Reggie Bannister and The Tall Man himself, Angus Scrimm, along with director Don Coscarelli were guests at this show.  I asked all four if they would be interested in doing interviews for Monsters From The Basement and they all said yes.  Phantasm was a huge hit when it was released in 1979 and was followed with 3 sequels.  The films have all became cult classics all over the world.  Listen in as I talk with Reggie, Michael, Don and Angus as we talk about Phantasm as well as Don’s new film John Dies At The End.  Hope you enjoy the Phantasm interviews!!

I first met Chris Pezzano at a small horror convention in my home town of Murfreesboro, Tn a few years ago. He really stood out to me because of his awesome zombie make-up. Since then I have ran into him at just about every convention I have attended. Chis is a huge horror fan and is one of the newest members of Days Of The Dead’s Monsters Among Us Group. Monsters Among Us is a group of horror fans who really enjoy dressing up as different characters at shows. He has also been a member of several metal bands over the years and has toured the United States as well as Europe. He will be appearing in the up coming film “Night Of The Living Dead 2012 as well as a few other projects. Join me as I talk with Chris Pezzano!!
