Monster Menagerie

Welcome!  I’ve been getting a lot of new visitors to this site and I want to extend a hardy hand shake!  One reason that new visitors have been directed to the site is that I’ve been posting my videos to every file sharing site that I can find!  The one with the most traffic (is NOT Youtube) is Metacafe.  I got more hits in one hour than I did on Youtube in two months!  Also I’ve been calling myself the “Proprietor of Monster Menagerie” whenever I’ve made a comment on other sites ...

I just finished another video!  This one is called “Ghost Stories” (can be seen in the Monster Tube area).  The video is a collection of theme-driven clips that I made, involving ghost.  There’s a recreation of the hallway scene from The Shining (come play with us Danny, forever and forever and forever).  I also made one scene from Poltergeist.   I’m not completely satisfied with the outcome, but some clips came out better than expected while others…

I used Poser 3 to make the clip...

New Celebrity Zombies!

I loaded new Celebrity Zombies on this site and I made another slideshow video (here and on Youtube.com.  Jennifer Anistion, Sarah Jessica Parker, Mathew Brodrieck, Jennifer Garner, Keira Knightly, Sacha Baron Cohen, Zac Efron, Ben Affleck and Mathew McConaughey! 

Meet the freaks!

So I changed the name of the “Celebrity Skinless” section to “Celebrity Zombies”.  When I explained to people what the section was about they didn’t get the parody.  I would have to go: you see, there’s this magazine called “Celebrity Skin” and I have “Celebrity Skinless” where the celebrities are zombies… get it?

I think that “Celebrity Zombies” says it all. 

Speaking of which: I’ve added Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.  More to come!  Keep checking back!  Book...

So, I’ve been maintaining a Myspace account for Monster Menagerie www.myspace.com/monstermenagerie .

I posted a couple of pictures on my Celebrity Skinless pictures and was using one as a “thank you” for the users who added me to their friends list.  All of a sudden my pictures disappeared!  So, I tried to reload the same pictures.  That’s when I got the message that my pictures were in violation of the terms to maintain an account on Myspace.  The pictures were “too violent”. 

I just watched Bela Lugosi as Dracula.  I haven’t seen it in a long time and I’m not sure if I ever saw the whole thing before.  I watched all of the extras on the 75th Anniversary Edition DVD.  There’s a lot of good stuff there –but the film historians start to contradict each other!  One says that Bram Stoker wrote Dracula from a draft of “The Vampyre,” that was written by John Polidori.  “The Vampire” was written during the same weekend party that Mary Shelly attended and w...

I just finished watching The Mummy staring Boris Karloff.  I’ve never seen it all the way through.  The last attempt was a 24-hour marathon of monster movies that played on channel 5 (KTLA), on Halloween, 1981.  I was babysitting my nephews for the weekend and I tried to stay up all night.  One reason for the all-nighter was to see the classic monster movies that I had never seen before.  That other reason was that someone set a field on fire, not far away from my sister’s house.  I was w...
