Bloodsucking Pharaohs in Pittsburgh?

Mar 22, 2009 18:31

Was the 1991 comedy slasher pic Bloodsucking Pharaohs in Pittsburgh filmed locally?

LATER: I've determined that it was filmed here. Anyone know about the locations? At least one scene is in a park that could be either Frick or Schenley. Also a few in industrial neighborhoods.

Your dad is/was an actor?

Actor - Well with that term used lightly I guess you could say he was. He had that role in Bloodsucking Pharoahs (the big clumsy guy), he had a 2 second shot in Day of the Dead (being shot as a zombie), and played Uncle Rege in the remake of Night of the Living Dead. It was basically luck and such as opposed to talent.
It made for seeing some fun things when I was young though.

He was the big cop in Bloodsucking?

No- the big Egyptian guy, Lober.

Oh . . . that's funny. It's a great role.

It is pretty funny. :D
Another fun fact about Bloodsucking, that was not the original name.
The original name was "Picking up the Pieces" - it was changed last minute.
