All bullshit. But I made a few good points there. Still...I got a call recently from some girl asking me if i'd be interested in doing a burn for free for a television show. I thought about it for three seconds and told her "sure". Hey, she caught me off guard, I was in the process of waking up. What a pushover
Well, atleast i'll be playing a swampmonster who will come out of a lake on fire! Not sure how to pull that one off, but we'll make it work. Explosions and big fireballs are also involved. Oh yeah, i've been on set to check it out, there's catering!

Remember video?
I'm sure I don't need to tell you what a homo I am when it comes to videos. Especialy ex-rentals from the golden age of videostores.
There's nothing I dislike about rental videos and i'm proud to say i'm one of those assholes who even enjoys the copyright warnings and label intros, especially those intros.
Here's the Thorn EMI intro. One of the first I found really exciting. I remember 'Dallas', the first videostore in town and it had a big Thorn Emi sign hanging outside over the sidewalk. The video store used to play Thorn Emi trailers all day long and I would hang around in there watching the same trailers over and over, stuff like The Soldier, The Burning, Madman and those crazy early 80's german sexploitation films.
Another one that released tons of great stuff was Video for Pleasure. That label was the shit for stuff as The Beyond, Maniac, Zombie Holocaust...and tons of x-rated stuff. I still buy almost every title I find on fleamarkets. Sometimes even shitty movies just for nostalgic reasons.
Here's another good one...Video Screen. These came with either this commercial or one for Pal Mall cigarettes. Ah the good ole days. I still have a couple of tapes from this label such as The Evil Dead and The Hills Have Eyes. Yeah, the connection!

Check this out...
I don't wanna brag but I must be doing something right. Right?
Check out the tattoo on my pal Hans, my number one fan and fellow Stunt Rock enthousiast.
These are a couple of pictures from the first two sessions, two more and the thing should be finished. Tattoo is getting done by Guy at Rubicon Tattoo Parlor, Hasselt. Track him down on myspace for more of his amazing work.
Stencil:
Later that day:
Session 2:
I can't wait to see the final result. It'll be finished within two months from now.
