Okay, I'm going to do video then. Might as well just do that if I'm going to post to YouTube. The shirt still rocks! Many thanks for the mentions! And can't wait to see what pics/video you bring back from Spooky Empire. S'a great show.

Awesome shirt Fleshy. I'm thoroughly tempted to make my own dead community one since there's quite a few websites out there that let you design your own... for a fee of course. If I did I'd probably go for the Black and orange Halloween Theme.

Spooky Empire recently released their lineup this year, totally different feel than years past, a true revamping.
Those attending that perk my interest: Tony Todd Tom Atkins Joe Bob Briggs
The entire cast from Killer Klowns will be there, should be interesting. The only regulars I see are Bill Hinzman and Ghost Hunters (who are like a f'n broken record at their Q&A, same shit every year). I was hoping for some Phantasm cast appearances, no dice.

I think so, I will probably only do 1 day this year. I'm taking on some intense couses next semester so I don't want to screw myself. I really want to meet Tony Todd and Tom Atkins, Joe Bob is a maybe for me.

Meeting Tony Todd would be pretty cool. So what exactly happens at Spooky Empire?

Various horror related celebrities gather for things such as autographs, Q&A's, screenings and such. There is also usually a huge amount of bootleg dvd's and other merchandise available, usually catered to the celebrities that are appearing that year. There is also a huge crazy ass party after the con is done for the day, last year Brian Peck was wild and crazy with the rest of the ROTLD cast all the while Gary Busey was sitting at the entrance to the pool lecturing people about the evils of booze. Good times.

Since I've never heard of it, I assume Sppoky Empire is in some far off distant land?

Haha, nope it's a convention held annualy in Orlando, FL. Pretty far off and distant for a New Yawker like me.

It's pretty decent, nothing compared to Flashback Weekend mind you. The largest convention in Orlando is Mega Con and Star Wars Celebration. Those two are pretty much stress factories.

Do people tend to dress up at Spooky empire or is that more a comic-con/star wars thing?

There is always someone dressed up at a con should that be SE or a SW con.

SE starts tomorrow. I'm going on Friday and Saturday. Last year Sunday felt like a downer so I'm skipping out. I'm excited to see the Tom Atkins and Tony Todd Q&A's, I'll sit in on the Killer Klowns stuff as well. Steven Adler is attending, I really wish he would do a panel haha!
Not much going on there in terms of Zed flicks outside of Tony Todd. Oh thee well, it has become a tradition at this point.
Hope you fellers have a good weekend.
Oh... and the guys from Boondock Saints will be there.
