“THIS BLACKSTAR CANYON COMIC BOOK ART IS FUCKING GREAT! REALLY TWISTED MAN!”--Lance Henriksen (Near Dark, Aliens, Millenium)
Wednesday, December 28, 2011
Saturday, December 17, 2011
Quotes given to Chiller Radio from Louisiana at Comic Con 2011
ULTIMATE GOAL:
"To tell stories to the widest audiences."
GENEROUS NATURE:
"I give away books when I work with new people. Great icebreakers! Also love to encourage my favorite authors: Terry Southern, Mary W. Shelley, Peter Straub, Hunter S. Thompson, Chuck Palahniuk, Clive Barker, John C. Lilly, Stephen King, Robert Anton Wilson, Phillip K. Dick, and
Madeleine L'Engle to name a few."
STORYTELLING INFLUENCES:
"I can't name them all. In terms of cinema I have studied: the titles I go back to are definitely from Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, Joe Dante, William Friedkin, and John Cassavettes. If I can do one film that even approaches the truth of one of Cassavettes' pictures, I can die satisfied."

HALLOWEEN EPISODE
SUNDAY OCTOBER 30th, 2011
This day seemed a lot busier; I never saw the attendance numbers.
Definitely more people dressed as their favorite characters compared to Saturday. A boisterous crowd rumbled into the halls early Sunday and I was pitching the premise of the comic and movie all day at my booth.
BLACKSTAR CANYON artist Josh Alves got to meet Joe Weems and the staff of Aspen Comics after signing and discussing the BLACKSTAR comic for several hours.
At 1 pm: Kyle, Dan, Dusty, and Emilio of Stellar Corpses from Santa Carla,
I mean Santa Cruz, arrived. Well rested after the previous nights
concert at the Grove with Tiger Army, the band was welcomed by the
onslaught of fans after the showrunners announced their guest appearance.
Several interviews later, the Corpses and I took pictures with Scream Queen Brenna aka "Cherrybomb". (Thanks to KC and Hart Fisher, and Phil Lawrence,
Mike Scigliano, and Martha Donato and the tireless staff and crew for longbeachcomiccon.com!)
Overall, very exhausting- but a terrific time spent for the Halloween Weekend promoting the movie and comic book prequel for BLACKSTAR CANYON!
NEXT WEEK:
NOV. 5TH AND 6TH-SEE YOU AT THE LA CONVENTION CENTER!
LONG BEACH HORROR AND COMIC CON 2011
SATURDAY OCTOBER 29th, 2011
The 2011 Long Beach and Horror Con was a great success for BLACKSTAR CANYON. Saturday was the mellow day-mostly networking and discussing the premise of BLACKSTAR CANYON to dozens of new fans.
On Saturday, I got to talk to one of my favorite film directors, John Carpenter.
He was premiering his new prequel comic called "ASYLUM". Thomas Ian Griffith, the lead villain from Carpenter's VAMPIRES film, and Sandy King created the characters with a script by Bruce Jones and art by Jason Craig. I am interested to see what the connection to the Gulf War is in the storyline. Definitely intrigued!
The Robot Chicken panel was hilarious. Matt Senreich and Seth Green were in top form. Shortly after that wrapped up, Shane Black took the stage.
Shane wrote and directed KISS KISS BANG BANG, and wrote LETHAL WEAPON, LONG KISS GOOD NIGHT, and LAST BOY SCOUT. Shane Black is also the new writer and director for IRON MAN 3 now that Jon Favreau stepped down to do COWBOYS AND ALIENS.
Though informative about the perils of Hollywood, Shane Black shared little info about the upcoming IRON MAN 3. He presaged the panel with, "Do you want to know the exact time and nature of your future demise? Exactly so let's be surprised when the IRON MAN film gets released!" Black did solemnly pronounce the new villain as the old Don Heck character standby "The Melter"; and with Black's expert timing told the audience after several agonizing moments of uncomfortable silence that he was kidding to thunderous laughter.
What followed was an irreverent and sardonic recollection of anecdotes, and tips,
to aspiring screenwriters. After furious note taking, I realized the panel was like
a couple semesters of film school in an hour and 45 minute discussion.
Shane Black is also developing the American version of the Japanese DEATHNOTE story. Black claims the studio told him to lose the notebook in the story (an essential plot point), and to make the lead character "more likable-someone the teens can relate to and look up to". Anyone who is familiar with the manga or original films will laugh at those studio notes. Be assured though-
Shane Black is going to shepherd this compelling story adaption in the correct
way. DEATHNOTE might turn out better than the upcoming
American film version of AKIRA!
One of the last panels of Saturday was a discussion on fundraising
by the writers of TRIGGER MEN. Kyle and Matt formed a comics company based on a fundraising effort from Kickstarter.com. Check out their comic’s page @triptychbooks.com
Short list of who I talked to on Saturday: Derek Easley director of the fan film STREET FIGHTER HIGH, Tim Bradstreet, Amanda Conner, Darwyn Cooke,
Kevin Eastman (Ninja Turtles creator), Hart Fisher of Americanhorrors.com,
Vince Hernandez of Aspen Comics, Thomas Jane, Steve Niles, Mark Waid,
and Bernie Wrightson.
I also got interviewed by several different reporters and will be posting those interview links as soon as they are available on either this blog or the tumbler.
Special thanks to Copytron.com in Anaheim Hills!

JUST REALIZED...
I haven't posted a synopsis for BLACKSTAR CANYON. There's a couple reasons I won't discuss too many plot points (spoilers) and scene details (pitching it to studios currently) until it's in the can and screening at festivals. I aim to produce a film that hearkens back to the milieu of 1979-1981 drive-in horror films. Not in cinematic terms of the scratchy prints (GRINDHOUSE); I intend to produce a film that veers away from the postmodern tone of the SCREAM series or the ultra-gore of HOSTEL/SAW series.
The easiest way for me to give a sense of what the horror part of my film will resemble
is through a top 10 trailer rundown in random order. These trailers don't share plot points with my film, but rather atmosphere.
10. JUST BEFORE DAWN (1981) ~ Probably contains George Kennedy's finest cinematic performance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1_UE5lhdEs
9. DEAD AND BURIED (1981) ~ Written by the duo of the original ALIEN (1979).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itzcuQyl8fg
8. MOTEL HELL (1980) ~ The murderous brother/sister pair archetype was cemented here for the 1980's horror genre. This is the German version.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlH6ccngJDI
7. ALONE IN THE DARK (1982) ~ Not the poor adaption of the videogame. This is a potboiler involving a psychiatrist and his family trapped in his new home during a blackout surrounded by escaped lunatic patients.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-W9Roy3UMo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us27RDGig30
6. LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM ~ Ken Russell's adaption of Bram Stoker's novel of the same title.
Great nightmare sequences-if you are a fan of ALTERED STATES you should check out this film.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4Q-PyZxZjw&feature=related
5. PHANTASM ~ 1979 Coscarelli film that I feel was more nightmare inducing than Tobe Hooper's Texas Chainsaw and Friedkin's EXORCIST.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJojkFFUsdo
4. Lucio Fulci's THE BEYOND (1980) (Dubbed in English from original Italian).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vltPK0IfP4M&feature=related
3. SORCERER ~ William Friedkin's suspense film didn't have any supernatural/horror elements. There are 2 or 3 "subliminal" nightmare sequences. Soundtrack is by Tangerine Dream (their first film score). Unarguably Roy Scheider's best film role as Jackie Scanlon.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMof5PuQF7w
2. ROSEMARY'S BABY ~ This late 60's Polanski thriller has 3 of the best dream/hallucination sequences committed to celluloid. To this day, I'm amazed how true these sequences read to nightmares I have experienced.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri6uUmEhN40
1. THE HOWLING (1981) ~ Directed by Joe Dante and featuring the better of the 2 werewolf transformations that year (apologies to Rick Baker...Bottin did phenomenal work for less budget).

Skipped Comic Con this year...
Although I heard the SONY PICTURES presentation was awesome and the LIONSGATE BOOTH always rocks--I did not attend SDCC this year. As for the trailer, I decided that any hastily made teaser trailer might not convey the tone I am going for with BLACKSTAR CANYON.
Brad is currently working on the prequel comic that leads up to the events in the film (which takes place in the old timey year of 2006).

Good afternoon Mr Bond
I am slowly stirring back to consciousness on a Monday morning and feel like the luckiest man on earth to be blessed with my supporting network of family and friends.
There was no time to update the site because everyone at the Weekend of Horrors con was demanding to know more about the Blackstar comic book and film. Although we didn’t have a finished comic book due to the printing press breaking down, my staff of artists were being asked for new sketches all weekend related to the comic book.
looking forward to Weekend of Horrors 2012 and screening the movie there!
