About me: Design your MySpace with MyLook Furnace .. Add to My Profile | More Videos
Writer Director Producer - I've been living in LA for twenty years. Was an actor in the 90's and in that time period had the fortune/misfortune of being killed by Jason Voorhees - Leatherface - Freddy Krueger - Romero's zombies in "Night of the Living Dead 1990" - and even the friggin Ghoulies...I guess I have the kind of face you wanna hit with a hatchet. I also appeared in a slew of mildly bad/good sitcoms/tv shows and tons of commercials. Basically, I was a show business hooker trained by Stella Adler herself.
Now that I am an old man of 40, I have graduated to writing and directing tons of commercials/shows for the Walt Disney Company (thank you Walt) I do Jetix/Disney Channel's "Gotcha Covered" ongoing series and my most recent show that I am doing for the House of Mouse is "Get Connected" a new short form show I created and am currently producing. Currently in the edit bay is THE LAMPSHADES music video I just directed starring Kate Flannery from The Office.
I have also done several feature film projects including...
The Rise and Fall and Rise and Fall of Tuck Johnson: Professional Porn Star.
Madhouse - Lakeshore Entertainment/Lion's Gate
Return of the Living Dead 4 - (Dont blame me)
Return of the Living Dead 5 - (I said don't blame me)
Furnace - The Weinstein Company and have several other in various stages of production and total disarray, so be nice to me please because I just may snap.
Have recently come to the conclusion that I finally hit the finish line and made it...only to find that nothing is really different or any better. I'm still the stupid tard I always was. I've been around the world three times, lived in Italy, Paris, spent time in Africa, Madrid, Romania, I've done everything I ever set out to do, everything except stop and have a personal life. Am working hard on that part. Thanks for reading my junk and drop me a note because I'm a people person aside from the obvious insanity.
Oh YES...One more thing...PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME IDEAS FOR MOVIES OR ASK ME TO READ STUFF BECAUSE I CAN'T DO IT. ANYTHING YOU SEND TO ME THROUGH MYSPACE WILL IMMEADIATELY BE DELETED - I ALSO HAVE NO IDEA WHERE YOU CAN FIND FINANCING FOR YOUR FILM - IF I KNEW I WOULDN'T BE SITTING HERE WASTING MY TIME ON MYSPACE. Not being a prick, but it just doesn't work that way. I reccomend you go get yourself an agent even though I am sure your idea is a grand slam. THIS MEANS YOU. :)!! YES YOU!
