It's all about the Halloween...not the movie, the actual season. And yes it is a season...if you don't believe me go to your local mall around August and you'll see the halloween costume shops opening up and the decorations getting put out in your local stores. Gotta love it. I am also into special effects...even though it's a freelance job, it's a passion. All things horror, sci-fi and fantasy. And I'm all about the 80's...the 80's much like Rock and Roll, will never die!!! Playing guitar, singing, writing, reading, hanging out with my friends...OK, moving on then.
Music
Anything that rocks my socks. Well, and other stuff...I'm really into 80's hair metal. Some of my favorite bands include Type O Negative, Cradle of Filth, Children of Bodom, Nightwish, Dying Fetus, Borgo Pass, SinAria, Lacuna Coil, Iron fuckin' Maiden, Pantera, BLS, Slayer, GNR, Old Fuckin' Metallica, White and Rob Zombie, Iced Earth, Megadeth, Tool, Testament, Judas Priest, Queensryche, Poison (yes, I'm really a Poison fan) Kiss, Aerosmith, Fear Factory, Black Sabbath, Electric Hellfire Club, Carnivore, and plenty more...throw up the horns...but I listen to all kinds of stuff, I'm a big fan of Golden Oldies, and I'm a softie when it comes to Power Ballads of the 80's.
Movies
Anything Horror...faves include Nightmare on Elm Street, Exorcist (the original) Friday the 13th, HELLRAISER!!!Kevin Smith flicks, RHPS, and random movies that most people would think suck horribly...I have a soft spot for "shitty" movies, ie. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, and random shitty horror movies...the crappier the better. hehe
You had an obbsession with killing innocent children of your town, until the towns people burnt you alive...now you come back for revenge on Elm Street.
Let's see...Law and Order (RIP Jerry Orbach, you were a king amongst men),Adult Swim (I love me some cartoons),Random nature and science shows, and sprinkle in lots of G4TV (Yes I'm a Gnerd, that's Geek + Nerd for all of you not in the know)especially AOTS, Kevin and Olivia absolutely rock! House M.D., Shin Chan, Bones, Mythbusters, Master Blasters, and lots and lots of news.
Books
The Avatar Trilogy by Richard Awlinson; The Chronicles of Drizzt by R.A. Salvatore; Grande Illusions I and II by Tom Savini; "Disconnected America" by Ed Shane. Personally I think this is a must read as we move further into the future.
Heroes
My father...my mother...ELVIS BABY!!! Dick Smith, the godfather of special effects! and of course, my uncle George "Inky" Roussos aka George Bell. Thank you for everything, I'll see you on the other side.

Let's see...I was born in the wagon of a traveling show...my momma used to dance for the money they'd throw...nah, I'm just kidding. Let's see, I was born on the hottest day of the year...we're talking record breaking highs here, so I guess I'm the antichrist everyone's been waiting for...I'm just too lazy to start the apocalypse...Alright, alright, Opening line take 3...Obviously I have a twisted sense of humor...other than that I'm pretty down to earth and easy to get along with. I've been told I have a very strong personality and I'm very charismatic, but I guess that's something you don't really see in yourself, so let me know what you think. I do a lot of different things with my life...most notably, I ink comic books, and I am a special effects artist. I am also a freelance animator, and I write, produce and direct horror films. Any thing else you wanna know about me that isn't covered in the page, just ask, I should be around.
I'd like to meet a lot of people but my top 6 (living and dead) and my reasons are:
1. My grandfather - he died when I was two and I only have the most vague memories of him.
2. Dick Smith - The primary reason I started my journey down the path of a makeup artist.
3. Anna Caterina Antonacci - The most beautiful voice I have ever heard in my life. I was first struck by her when I heard her singing "Habanera" from Georges Bizet's Carmen, and I've been a tremendous fan since.
4. Socrates - Not only was he a great philosopher who strongly influenced some of the greatest minds in history, but he was one of, if not the most truthful man of all time, choosing the truth and fighting for justice in the face of certain death.
5. Marie Curie - A truly brilliant woman, not only was she the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, she was also the first person to gain the honor twice, and still to date (at least to my knowledge) the only person to win it for her pursuits in two sciences.
6. Jesus Christ - The only way you'll know the real story is by talking to the man himself. There are a lot of questions to ask, not even in the realm of religion, just so many things that never seemed to add up for me...Also I'd love to know where he was for those 30 years.
hey I LOVE YOU BRO... hows your gf??? She better be treating you good or she'll have to deal with me lol so just curious did you find out when we will be able to do another photo shoot?!? I was actually wondering if it was possible if you could fix up one or two of those pictures, if not its ok I know its a lot of work let me know love you
