Full Moon Horror Road Show
Well Saturday Casey & I went.
It was bitchin'!
First Charles Band told us some funny stories (my favorite was about Gary Busey, who was in Gingerdead Man). You hear about how crazy Gary Busey is, and it just keeps getting better the more you hear.
Then Charles Band had an a few people volunteer to come up on stage. He calls out a part he needs played, and everyone who wants to try out for the part goes on stage. Then the audience votes for who they like best.
1. GQ good-looking guy.
I voted for the underdog, who was an adorable short guy who had a Puppet Master Blade shirt on. Well, his vote was tied with one other guy so they ended up playing bisexual guys to make the part work.
2. Two Hot chicks
Only about 2 girls went up on stage for this one. And Casey & I were not one of them! Then Charles had to bribe us and say every girl who came up on stage would get a free DVD set of their choice. I was SO tempted but then I was afraid I might actually get picked by the audience, even if just for being the 'underdog'. So I did not go on stage, though I regret it *thinking of the free movies I'd have gotten*
3. Guy to be the Monster
I really wanted to go up on stage for this one but he specifically said "I need guys..." Ah, well.
So the scene that played out was 2 girls were making out and the 2 bisexual guys come along and try to get it on with the lesbians, but before anything happens a monster comes along, fights the bi-guys, and then he gets the lesbians all to himself. Well, Charles Band told the "hot chicks" that he'd give them a free DVD set if they showed their breasts. One girl said no, the other girl said yes. Then he told her he'd give her one DVD set for each breast she shows. So we got flashed, though the boobies weren't much to look at.
The girl who did not show her boobies then immediately got beheaded in a guillotine as punishment. I would've liked to have been beheaded, if only I'd known beforehand...
Then there was an auction with fun dolls from Graveyard Dolls, Puppet Master, Demonic Toys, even a Subspecies Radu doll. Genitals and all.
After that, I went to buy some DVDs. I got Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death, because I love that movie... it has Brinke Stevens & Adrienne Barbeau. So next Texas Frightmare Weekend I'll have Adrienne sign it. Teehee. I also got the Demonic Toys DVD set, The Dead Hate the Living, and the new Full Moon movie Evil Bong that hasn't actually been released yet. Well, apparently, if you buy $100 worth of stuff then you get to have your name listed as an "executive producer" in the next Full Moon movie. Together, Casey & I had bought $100 worth of stuff. So we hyphenated our name, and it'll be listed as "Ali Souders-Phinney". Hi-larious.
We talked to Charles Band a little. He asked me, "Where have you been?" as if I've been hiding the whole time, which gave me a moment of confusion. I chose not to answer, and he asked me if I'd watched any of these movies. (I notice he asks a lot of girls that, I guess he thinks we're all there with our boyfriends and we are above blood & gore or something). I said, "Yeah, I don't often buy movies I haven't seen." And as I was hoping that didn't sound too bitchy, he told me to wait there because there was a movie he wanted to give me. He came back with Blood Dolls and told me that I'd like it. I was happy. I love free stuff! Then he signed all our stuff and we talked to some actors and left.
Then we went to a party, which turned out to be a lot of fun. And this cute Indian guy was hitting on me all night. And I have such a weakness for East Indian guys. He asked me if I'd go out with him the next day but I told him I had to work. He asked for my phone number but I told him no, BUT if he remembered at the end of the night then I'd give it to him... because he was SO drunk and talking nonsense that I had no idea how serious he was. OH ! Also, his sister kept telling me I was "so fuckin' beauutiful" until she finally asked if I'm gay or straight. I told her straight. Then throughout the night she would mumble, "your so fuckin' hot, but you're my brother's, so hands off..." She was a major boost to my self-esteem, for sure! I got hit on by brother & sister Indian hotties. That was a first.
Well, tonight, I'm going to see a live Depeche Mode concert on the big screen at Tinseltown. My friend Leesa is taking me as a late birthday present. I'm looking forward to that.
