I attend comicons and horror conventions somewhat often.
In September I'll be heading to Lexington, KY for 2009 ScareFest Horror and Paranormal Convention. This will be my third US horror con for 2009 and likely my last. As much as I enjoy traveling, they can be somewhat expensive.
I plan to meet:
Doug Bradley (Hellraiser) - Doug will be a good addation also. He's never appeared at any convention Ive attended.
Dee Wallace (The Howling, E.T. Cujo, Hills Have Eyes) - More excited about meeting Dee then anyone else!
Danielle Harris (Halloween)
Leslie Easterbrook (Police Academy) **
Priscilla Barnes (Three's Company) **
**I'll likely have these 2 sign my Devils Rejects poster since I already have 3 signatures. I'm trying to get as many sigs as possible.
In recent years I've met:
Ken Foree (Dawn of The Dead)
Kane Hodder (Jason/Friday the 13th 8-10)
Adam West (Batman)
Kenny Baker (R2D2/Star Wars)
Tom Savini (FX artist, praised as one of the greatest in the industry)
John Rhys Davies (Gimli/Lord...Rings, Indiana Jones)
Gunnar Hansen (Leatherface/Texas...Massacre)
Bill Mosley (Otis/Devils Rejects)
Sid Haig (Captain Spaulding/Devil's Rejects)
William Forsythe (Rob Zombie's Halloween, Devils Rejects)
Jason Mewes (Jay/Clerks, Dogma, Chasing Amy)
Marilyn Burns (Sally/The Texas Chain Saw Massacre)
Personal favs:
Christina Lindberg (One Eye/Thriller, Swedish actress from the 70's)
Reggie Bannister (Reggie/Phantasm 1-4)
Angus Scrim (The Tall-man/Phantasm 1-4)
Michael Baldwin (Mike/Phantasm, 3-4)
^^ I'm a huge "Phan" so meeting the cast of Phantasm was one of the more favorable conventions. Nothing as compared to that, other then meeting Christina, whom has never been to a US convention. It was a first time for her and possibly last time so it was amazing opportunity. I drove to Cleveland (6 hours) just to meet her)
