Super-Lost Me

Posted on: May 6th, 2010 by wmapother 3 Comments

ABC has added an extra half-hour to the ‘Lost’ finale.  Its official running time, as of 12:21:35a.m. EST, is five days, six hours, fourty-seven minutes and an indeterminate number of seconds.

And that’s still not long enough.  And so say all of us.

Report in the Hollywood, uh, Reporter is here.

Ethan yadda yadda Rom

MediaBlvd Magazine has printed an interview with me about Ethan and that show.    In it I do a lot of yapping (note to self:  get to the point!).  The interview is here.

Gutentag!

Word has reached me from across the great sea that on April 22, ‘The Burrowers‘ will be released on DVD in Germany, Switzerland and Austria.

In case you’re reading this in Germany, please drop everything immediately.  Put your life on hold and go demand to your local video store that they offer multiple copies of ‘The Burrowers.’  They won’t know of what to which you refer, of course, so repeat yourself, calmly, and for “Burrowers” just substitute “Das Böse unter der Erde.”

They’ll nod and agree and make the order into the computer, and then you can go enjoy a streudel and beer together.

Horror-westerns.  Bringing the world together.

The Vamping Vamp

Posted on: March 24th, 2010 by wmapother 2 Comments

Even a bloodsucker needs a little love.  Here’s a pic from the ep I shot last week of the web series “I heart vampires.”  My right fang is just half-visible behind the mirror.  The make-up artist slathered the fang glue, then asked me to hold it in place for about five minutes (While I slurringly asked her about eight times if she was sure it would come off.  It did, thank god.)
It’s called “Nick: Into the Darkness,” ep 4, and I’ve been told it should be up in the couple weeks.

Me as Me

Posted on: March 20th, 2010 by wmapother 4 Comments


Humans of the world, doubt the future of web TV no longer:  I just shot my first ep of a web series.  It’s called I <3 Vampires (‘I heart vampires, for those of you over the age of 12), and its home page is here.

My character, with the most exceptional name of William,  is the leader of a vampire clan and has been around on the earth a heckuva lot longer than I have.  His primary purpose:  Get the newly vamped Nick to act as a spokeperson for the woefully misunderstood and poorly-p.r.’d vampire contingent.

The ep should be posted in the next couple weeks, and hopefully I’ll have stills from the shoot, white make-up and all.
