The Casket Creatures, a horror punk band located here in Atlanta, is just about to release their latest album “Return To Wolfton,” and I was graciously given the opportunity to hear it before it hits the streets. So check out my review below.

Be a Hero (Horror PSA)

28 Wednesday Feb 2018

Posted by krowface in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

Near the beginning of November of last year, I was honoured with the opportunity to once again work with one of my favourite people in our industry, Vanessa Ionta Wright, on the set of a PSA spearheaded by world famous twin horror icons, Jen and Sylvia Soska, to raise awareness of our country’s need for blood donations.

It was a long day full of fun and excitement, and I felt like I was extending Haunt season just a little bit because I was in my element as one of the Art PAs. I helped decorate the set and make it look like a terrible explosion happened, and I was also able to fabricate the hero prop and run the foggers for the shoot.

Look out below! Just in time to wrap up February which I like to call “Women in Horror Month” here in my house.

In the meantime, since we’re on the subject, please donate blood. #BeAHero

Then click the “read more” button right here to check out a copy of the film poster, which would look pretty awesome on the background of your fancy little smart phone, right?

Nightmare’s Gate 2017

I’m a little late with this, but I wanted to talk about one of the greatest awards I’ve ever received. It all started with me signing up for a second year with Nightmare’s Gate.

A few months later I’m exhausted, bruised, semi-permanently stained with red dye #5 and diesel fuel. I’m also honoured with the reward for “Actor of the Year.”

20180120_120617

I want to give a huge thank you to the entire cast and crew of that show. I only ended up earning that award because they were so amazing at what they do, I had to up my game. Each night they motivated me to reach farther, try harder, and be a little more sick in the head and terrible in the mouth. (Sorry for cursing around all those kids, but hey being an Evil Clown is a rough form of art.)

Without them I’d be only me.

Well… I’d also be tazed to death for being the only guy working a big giant haunted house, and I’m sure the local cops wouldn’t be too keen on that, yeah?

Ouch.

Speaking of mailing lists, if you’re a member of mine, you would’ve gotten the exclusive first look at the new page here on my website. However, it’s now been made public, so feel free to come check out my latest portfolio. Feast your eyes on my special effects makeup gallery. Just don’t… feast on eyes, because that’s weird and gross.

Time to Wake Up and Start Dreaming

19 Friday Sep 2014

Posted by krowface in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

From birth forward I was surrounded by my father’s love of all things fantasy and sci-fi. Raised around stacks of OMNI, Analog Science Fiction and Fact, and even Heavy Metal (Metal Hurlant if you want to be a purist about it), I had always known a world full of strange aliens, alternate dimensions, and a fiction that vibrated with imagination. No matter how fantastical the worlds, no matter how magical the science, one thing always remained. Heart. Speculative fiction wasn’t just about techno-fetish or about word count, it was about the human condition. Conflict, growth, and victory. Always vesselled in wonder, but at its core it was us. No matter the time, no matter the distance, it was always about us. Which is the reason why sci-fi and fantasy has always been popular, and how it has continued to grow over our history. Shockingly, in some cosmic accident, I am now a part of shaping that history. Now I find myself back into it, this time from the other side of the desk.

This week I was awarded the title of “Editor-in-Chief” for the publication Beyond Fantasy. Blessed with the chance, and honoured by the opportunity. I am intimidated by the footsteps of those who came before me, and I do love a challenge.

As a child I had always dreamed about the future. Now the future is here, and now I am an adult. Suddenly it’s my turn to do the same thing for the next generation. As I was inspired, now I get to inspire. I get to pay it back, by paying it forward. It’s a big beautiful universe out there, and now I get to play tour guide. Hundreds of writers, artists, and designers have filled my tiny little mammal brain with such grand and amazing visions. The head is a garden, and we’re ready to harvest. I am thankful for all who came before me, I sincerely hope I can keep up. I have a legacy to maintain.

The dream has come true; time to make new dreams.

Hello World v.3!

25 Monday Aug 2014

Posted by krowface in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

After 5 years of blogging on my own website*, I recently lost my database. There is no recovering. I lost everything. The custom design, the apps and widgets, and all of my pages and my galleries. A few hundred hours and years of contributions are now lost forever. Pretty catastrophic. But then again, that sort of thing never stops me.

Currently re-building from zero. I’ll post as it happens, sign up for the feed if you’d like to keep track.

Thanks, love you all.

*I’ve still got over 15 years of online journaling going on, but it’s not the same. /sadface
