THEN:
Go over to
http://www.killingboxx.com/ for a superb interview with beautiful and talented actress MELANIE ROBEL. I believe there are quite some overpaid Hollywood actorpersons who could leanr a thing or two from Melanie, both in how she takes both her work and the interview seriously!
THEN:
Buy Lloyd Kaufman's latest book! It's as educational, informative AND a great read as his previous ones! Unmissable for anyone even remotely interested in Independent Cinema.
THEN:
Do yourself a favour and order your copy of the wonderful and limited 3-DVD set of Lloyd Kaufman's latest Tromasterpiece POULTRYGEIST: NIGHT OF THE CHICKEN DEAD today!! It is to be released on october 28, and this is BY FAR the best film to have been released for the past few years, and you can't afford not to own the fully-packed-with-extra's release ASAP!!
Then go to the biggest webstores you know and WRITE A REVIEW of the film AND the book, so that other browsers will be aware of the existence of this beautiful gem and buy it as well!!
Infiltrate with us by becoming a reviewer yourself and infiltrate in the wild web overruling all these so-called professional journalists who get paid to write badly about Troma and other independents.
On november 2, Lloyd talked about Poultrygeist and a lot of other things on a Comnpletely Naked production on BlogTalkRadio. Tromatonic called in and joined in on the conversation. Check the show here:
..
www.tromatonic.com is proud to have introduced a new award, irregularly given to people who have given an outstanding contribution to Independent Art. Check over at www.tromatonic.com for more details.
What are my other interests?? Well...
Apart from Movies, Troma and Lloyd Kaufman's work I am greatly interested in music. And I am currently combining the two by producing, directing and editing MY FIRST OWN DAMN MOVIE, an as yet untitled documentary-slash-concert film of the band LITTLE ROCK in which I play guitar (under the ominous name The General for reasons you find explained on our MySpace www.myspace.com/littlerockrulez).
A segment (one live track) of the work in progress can be seen below.
Outside the band I record my own compositions. Plus I made a new arrangement of the well known Troma Leader Tune, which you can hear here:
Captain Weird (a.k.a. The General).
Movies
The entire oeuvre of Lloyd Kaufman.
Intelligent films.
Independent films.
Troma.
Giusseppe Andrews.
Warren F. Disbrow Jr.
Troma.
Everything of directors Andrew Repasky McElhinney,
Dario Argento and
Jean Rollin.
Actresses Annabella Sciorra and Nicola Fiore.
Chistopher Walken.
Laurel & Hardy.
Did I mention Troma?
Monty Python.
Lloyd Kaufman.
George A. Romero.
And Tromamovies.
Television
These days it's hopeless.
The only TV I watch is when the screen shows whatever I am playing in the appropriate device.
Which is a lot of Troma.
Books
Lloyd Kaufman: Make your own Damn Movie, Everything I Need To Know About Filmmaking I Learned From The Toxic Avenger, The Toxic Avenger - the Novel.
Letters of Oscar Wilde,
the entire oeuvre of dutch poet C. Budding'.
Heroes
Lloyd Kaufman.
Frank Zappa.
Bill Wyman.
Keith Richards.
John Lydon.
My wonderful late wife and my beautiful kids.
All of the above not necessarily in this order.
www.tromatonic.com is the website where I am trying to raise awareness for INDEPENDENT ART. Which is important, because the future looks bleak for Independent Art.
Listen to this important announcement from the chairman of the I.F.T.A: Lloyd Kaufman:
I extended www.tromatonic.com to MySpace,as you see here. Trying to find allies in the fight for independent art. Cinema to be more exact. And in that field there is one major studio that deserves extra attention: TROMA.
www.tromatonic.com is dedicated to Troma, and the awarenessraising I am after. Troma, Lloyd Kaufman and anything remotely connected. We are here to do what we can to help promote true art.
Infiltration in the official websites, since all of us can be reviewers.
Check there to see what I mean. I also included some exclusive filmclips of Lloyd Kaufman, a few essays of myself and other related stuff gets added irregularly. I try to bring attention to films that you definitely should check out and here and there I have photographic evidence of truly great Troma-related events. I also report on what is going on, Tromatonically, overhere in the Netherlands.
See you there!
In the meantime check out this Tromatonic video of Lloyd Kaufman, talking about his chairmanship of the IFTA to fight the Big conglomerates. What he says makes it very clear why everybody who cares should help to fight for independent cinema!!
There is also some wonderful clothing, exclusive to www.tromatonic.com, approved by Lloyd Kaufman and financially supporting the next TROMADANCE festival!! You too could look as wonderful as Nicola Fiore or Melanie Robel!! Or at least give it a go.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who is also interested in and working on promoting Troma, in order to make it possible for Lloyd and his studio to keep making and releasing such fantastic films that otherwise we would never be able to see!!
But also other filmmakers, actors, directors who are making great independent films themselves, and fans of those wonderful works of art.
And, well, anybody interesting. As I found out there are a LOT of interesting people around here on MySpace. (Please don't mistake this for me thinking I myself am all that interesting, but that has never stopped me wanting to meet people who are! :O)
I don't know much about the plight of independent film.... Its easy to forget how bad it is in America (and the world) when funding is readily available here in the UK... But funding to make a film is one thing, competing to get your art out into the world full of conglomerates is another! But things will change! I hope to make my difference, my 'drop in the water' sooner rather than later if its making my own art or hopefully contributing to troma's fight. Good Luck and best wishes from just over the water x
Thank you so much!!!! wish you could be there to! if you would still like to donate some thing to the film "Atom the Amazing Killer" there is a Donation button at http://www.myspace.com/Atomthezombiekiller
