Happy Holidays

I don't know if you have someone whom you admire; someone who was a very important part of your development, entertainment or love life. Some people would list movie stars, others architects, doctors, explores or talk show host. Well, one of mine is Smokey Robinson. I can sing all of his hits and I have followed his career from Motown 'till today. I believe the man walks on water. Now I love Sinatra, and can watch and listen to Domingo, Pavarotti, and Carara over and over. I love Carmen Mc Rae, Sara Vaughn, Barbara Streisand, Roy Rodgers, Harry Truman, Robert Kennedy, Frank Capra, Martin Luther King; Smokey is really special. He and the Temptations rocked and made my world! Literally, I was a geek for this groups and its music.

I'm am walking onto a plane headed for Pittsburgh and who is sitting in first class.? .............Yep! You guessed it... SMOKEY! Now I forgot to tell you about Smokey being a distant cousin of yours truly. So distant it hardly matters. Can you imagine one of the greatest tenors in the world, the man who sung the songs that I loved the most, who helped my romantic life wildy, was on the same plane that I was.

So I played it cool, waited for my opportunity and approached Smokey full of confidence in my ability to engage him and tell him I was his cousin, (though far removed), and how much his life and talent meant to me.......................OF COURSE NOT! NOT OUR DARLING BOY! I walked up to first class and made such a pest of myself and I couldn't get the facts straight about how we were related. And, Smokey kept telling me that my facts were wrong and I kept insisting that I was right. In short, I made the man's life horrible during the flight and, afterwards in baggage claim, I was so annoying and such a geek that if he ever sees me again he'll have me shot on the spot or at the very least call security and run as fast as he can in the opposite direction. What an idiot! It's rare, but this time I was a complete blabbering numbskull.

The lesson learned from this adventure is that we all have those times when we would like to start all over again and do it differently.

Well 2009 is a new chance for us to start anew and, if necessary, do it differently. So here to doing everything right in 2009.

Have a happy, properous, safe and healthy New Year.

Halloween evening

Where were you doing Halloween? Well, I was in Phoenix with a group of friends. It was a nice party given by my friend Rob and his Brother Joey. If you look closely you'll see a few people with recognizable faces.

ZombieFest

Hey:

Just wanted to let you know that Zombie Fest was a lot of fun. Its been 30 years and I wanted to do something special for the fans. I hope they liked it and that it went over well. We raised over a ton of food in the city of Pittsburgh and that was great. The world-wide numbers aren't in yet. The Mall is a special place and we hamd it up and had a great time for the 30th anniversary.

I hope everyone voted. I did!

See you soon,

Ken

Zombie Fest

This is something special!!
...and guess who's smack dab in the middle of all the action??? Thats right Ken will be there and has plenty to do !!!

What is Zombie Fest™?

Zombie Fest™, a weekend of zombie fun and monster madness in Pittsburgh, includes:

· A two-day zombie-themed convention at the Monroeville Mall, site of the Romero zombie classic Dawn of the Dead, featuring vendor exhibits, film screenings, author discussion panels, live bands, games and other fun activities for zombie fans. And in 2008, it’s FREE admission!

· The Zombie Masquerade Ball is the monster party of the century! Eat, drink, dance, and rub elbows with the upper crust undead! Prizes awarded for best overall costume and best zombie costume. The Ball also includes live entertainment and a silent auction (last year’s auction raised $1,000 for breast cancer research!). The Ball is a 21 and over event and there will be a separate admission fee.

· On Sunday morning, zombies, young and old, will gather at the Mall, shambling and moaning for brains while bearing food donations for the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank. Led by Professor Emcee Square, the horde of zombies slowly made their way from one end of the mall to the other. In 2007, the total number of zombies who signed in was 1,028, establishing a new Guinness World Record™, and more than half a ton of food was collected. The walk was honored with a Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Award for Best Fan Event of 2007. In 2008, the Monroeville Mall Zombie Walk will be the hub of World Zombie Day™, with walks being held in more than 40 cities worldwide benefiting local food banks.

In 1968 a film was released in Pittsburgh that changed the face of horror history forever. It changed zombies from mindless undead slaves into flesh-hungry beasts that thirst for blood! Film history would never be the same.

Now, 40 years later, some new blood is picking up the rotten pieces and upping the ante.

Pittsburgh's greatest horror hit "The It's Alive Show" is proud to present...

World Zombie Day™ is the day that all ghouls from Kentucky to Kokomo, from Atlanta to Afghanistan, from Washington to Wales, and from Pittsburgh to Puerto Rico can celebrate together in a near orgy of blood covered bliss!!

Every major and minor city of the world that has ever hosted a zombie walk can band together and give one solid groan heard WORLDWIDE for the zombie cause!

World Zombie Day™ will be a day when all fans of zombie culture can join together. There will be an international charity event done throughout the cities involved to help alleviate world hunger, and this will be a first.

The It’s Alive Show”, World Record Holders for the largest zombie walk ever, will spearhead this event from the very birthplace of zombie culture, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.

The participating living dead are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item to each zombie walk starting point. A mass effort will be taken on worldwide to prove that charity, goodwill, and zombie love can flourish in every nation regardless of race, ethnicity, sex, or religion, and that no matter where or how we die…

Zombie Walk Organizers - Please contact Miss Dee at zombiefest@verizon.net to officially sign on and get details.

Dear fans:

I just wanted to share some of the impressive visuals from the set of "Zone of the Dead" I'm having a great time and working with a wonderful group of talented people both in front of and behind the camera. Belgrade is an interesting city, I've just gotten in from my first chance exploring the night life here and I must say it's very impressive. Well it's back to work tomorrow (this being my day off) but I'll try to keep you informed about the shoot and how it's going. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

DEAD-BONES crew shout out!

God has blessed me with an opportunity to shoot a film at the same location that Sergio Leone had shot all his westerns; where David Leane shot "Lawrence of Arabia"; where the Magnificent Seven was shot. It was dry and hot and one day we had to shoot in a sand storm. I had a chance to work with a good friend who produced it and a director whom I enjoyed very much. I want to publicly thank the crew who were very professional and, that in turn, made it easy for the creative process to flow. Some of them had never worked on a film before while others had worked on many. It was a wonderful experience and I'll always fondly remember them. Thank you to everyone involved.

Shout out to Japanese Fans!!

Hello to my dear friends in Japan. I thought I would list your names for the fans around the world and say thank you for showing me a great time while I toured your wonderful country. I must admit that I ate and drank far too much: I must have gained 10 pounds. The next time I come, Yuko will have to run interference so that I don't eat my way from one end of the country to the other. So, to all the horror fans, here are your comrades from Japan.

Ken Foree Joins El Superbeasto Cast

Friday, March 28, 2008
By: Ryan Ball

Actor Ken Foree, well-known by horror fans for his roles in George A. Romero’s Dawn of the Dead and Rob Zombie’s Halloween, has been added to the voice cast of Zombie’s long-gestating animated feature The Haunted World of El Superbeasto. Based on the rocker-turned-filmmaker’s Spookshow International comic-book series, the direct-to-video feature is being distributed by Starz Media’s Anchor Bay. A street date has not been announced yet.

The Haunted World of El Superbeasto will follow the adventures of an over-the-hill masked wrestler who now fights crime as a secret agent. El Superbeasto has more interest in strippers than adventure, but still manages to get involved with murdering super-intelligent gorillas, Liverpudlian zombies and manic depressive, mad scientist Dr. Satan, voiced by Oscar-nominated actor Paul Giamatti. The voice cast also includes scream queen Sheri Moon Zombie (Devil’s Rejects, House of 1,000 Corpses) as Suzie X, El Superbeasto’s sexy super-spy sister, stand-up comedian Tom Papa (The Life Coach, Analyze That) as El Superbeasto and Brian Posehn (The Sarah Silverman Program, Just Shoot Me) as a robot named Murray.

Foree also joins fellow horror icons Sid Haig, who will also reprise the role of Captain Spaulding from House of 1,000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects, and Cassandra Peterson, best known as buxom fright flick host Elvira. Another one of Zombie’s favorite actors, Bill Moseley, will lend his voice to the animated version of his Otis Driftwood character from Corpses and Rejects.

Zombie wrote the story for El Superbeasto and is serving as exec producer. Starz Media’s Film Roman, the studio behind The Simpsons and other hit shows, is doing the animation.

DEAD-BONES: Another project for Ken
