Crazy Ass Germans!

Posted by Charlie on November 29, 2006

You know you love them. The question is who is your favorite crazy ass German movie actor. Here’s my top three:

Udo Kier - You loved him in Mark of the Devil. You cried when he died at sunrise in Blade. How can you deny his insanity as Baron Frankenstein in Andy Warhol’s Frankenstein(Flesh for Frankenstein) and his quest to build a perfect mate for his New York accented monster. To know death Otto, you have to fuck life in the gallbladder.

Carl Boehm - If you haven’t seen Peeping Tom(1960) yet, you are completely missing out on the grandaddy of any perverted sleaze you’ve seen from the past 46 years. Boehm stars as a photographer, ruined by his father and obsessed with fear, who kills women with his tripod while filming them. Boehm’s blank, emotionless stare sells the whole movie.

Last but not least, Klaus Kinski - Ok so technically he’s Polish, but he grew up in Germany. Best know as Nosferatu in Werner Herzog’s 1979 version of the original German vampire move, he is also know for playing crazy ass doctors in Android, Schizoid, and Crawlspace. He is also pretty damn nuts in the 1985 Sci-Fi classic Creature. His best production to date is, of course, Nastassja Kinski., who got naked for us in many films and helped many of us through puberty.

I know that myself and Uncle Bill are VERY proud of how this interview turned out, its probably if not THE most informative interviews definitely in the top two or three. Fans of Halloween III : Season of The Witch will not want to miss a second of this hour long indepth interview with the director of that film, as well as Stephen King’s IT (which IMO is the best King mini series adaptation ever) and production designer on THE ONE, THE ONLY…..HALLOWEEN (well I mean the first one, technically there’s like 8 of em now with #9 on the way) I just personally had a very good time talking with Mr. Wallace , he holds nothing back and seems very honest about all the experiences as you’ll soon hear…..I guarantee you’ll enjoy it. If not you’ll get a full refund………HOOOAH!!

'Red Seven' the latest independent film to come out of Michigan!

Posted by Tim on November 29, 2006

Remember folks we here at Bastards just don’t promote horror, we also promote independent film also. Thank you, from T.G.

RED SEVEN is currently being produced as part of a brand spanking new filmmaking competition known as Project Twenty1 www.projecttwenty1.com

Located in Philadephia, Project Twenty1 is a contest in which twenty one teams have twenty one days to complete a film that is 10 minutes or less in length. This years common element that is required to be incorporated into all of the films is “21.” Teams are allowed to define in what way(s) they wish to insert this element into their movies. The more unique, the better. The winner will be decided by the audience in attendance at the festival screenings on December 4th and 5th. A best of fest screening will occur on January 24th. Check the website for more details.

Project Twenty1 is the second contest of this sort for “team with no name” after recently finishing the East Lansing Film Festival 48/5 with their critically acclaimed horror dramedy entry, Wonky.

Griffin, Brandon Bartkowiak and Justin Muschong, they have collaborated with as many other talented and hardworking Michigan based filmmakers as possible to help them complete their competitive assignments.

RED SEVEN is a dramatic action story set in the shady world of underground gambling with it’s arms firmly wrapped around a damaged love triangle and a climax that is certain to unnerve even the most jaded of film viewers. This short film features the powerhouse acting talents of Michael McCallum, David Prouty and Grace Anne Rowan.

No worries though if you can’t make it to Philadelphia to catch any of the Project Twenty1 films on the big screen, RED SEVEN will make it’s Internet debut on January 25th on several streaming media services such as MySpace, YouTube and Revver.
