All my contacts from the business was there and I figured - these were professional people - no stupidity - right?

wrong ...

So I kill it and after a few months I figured i'd have the family and friends I kept off there last time - so I could share photos, etc.
No stupidity there - right?

wrong again.

I'm done ..

I've learned to block out the stupidity.

Oh yeah, my own family included. Especially my niece and nephew. I've learned to hide their posts.

this might be interesting to someone (maybe)

it's a slideshow of some of the stills I took while we shot Blood For Irina.
put to the music that was used in the film ..

Hah thanks. Took that for a lark. At a friends trailer and I figured I looked like a psycho :)

I didn't think anyone would actually look at the sideshow :).
We did have fun making it. No budget - no pressure :)

Shot a Polar Bear dip yesterday and underestimated how cold it would be.
I ended up leaving before they went in the water :)

From 2012 -

Thea Münster - the girl who organizes the hugely successful Toronto Zombie Walk was dressed as a black and white zombie to promote Night of the Living Dead Live ..

I walked her to her train after a post-show dinner and took advantage of the photo opportunities :)

Russ Steiner ("They're coming to get you Barbara") asked me to do some head shots of him while at the con in Toronto :)

Big fan of Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen! You've definitely meet a lot of cats I'd like to shake hands with.

The Harbourfront Centre photo is great.

I interviewed both of those guys. Lance on Skype (hearing his voice coming through my computer speakers was something else)

Met him a few times in person after that - super down to earth guy

Interviewed biehn over a breakfast in Kentucky
Cool guy. He's been through some crazy shit

did you talk to Tom Savini?

I've read that he can be a bit of a snob

he's not a snob if you have tits.

I normally don't speak to him but he asked me to send him a couple of photos i took of him in Montreal.

No thanks or acknowledgement that he got them ….

so - yeah..

urgeok2 01-05-2014 08:42 AM

sorry - edited a spelling mistake and ended up with a double post ...

he's a good guy - he shows up at every convention and event.
I think it was to shock at first but now everyone knows him :)

The fellow with him is my buddy - and the guy I kill in Blood For Irina :)

urgeok2 01-07-2014 05:17 AM

oh - the guy standing with the black goat-boy thing - is Jeff Lieberman (Squirm)

I wondered if that was the case. Stuntmen put their bodies though some punishment that's for sure. I should read his book sometime. I'd like to read Gunnar Hanson's one too.

it was a first - very surreal :)

he's a genuinely nice guy - a photographer too ...
spent a weekend hanging out together in Montreal a couple of years ago and a few months after he emails me and says while we were talking I said something he immediately wrote down and asked if he could quote me .. I had no idea ..

Love the pic of the wind machines. If I could, I'd cover my dining room wall with your photos.

urgeok2 01-09-2014 03:57 AM

well thanks - i haven't even done that :)

urge, you know I've always loved your photography. That's what I've missed most about your absence from Facebook. That, and you complaining about my LOLcats. ::big grin::

urgeok2 01-09-2014 04:02 AM

funny cat pictures is the only thing on Facebook worth seeing

as long as they don't have that lolcat dialogue.

'I can haz hamburger?'

yeah - that drove me mental

animals are sophisticated enough to talk .. but they talk like they are developmentally delayed?

Sometimes the people get carried away and I can't even understand what they're trying to "say".

I hate being in photos - but when Ilsa, She-Wolf of the SS tells you to get in the picture - you get in the picture :)


funny story - I've only been asked to autograph things about 3 - 4 times. Once on the Gorezone with Linnea's pictorial - and a couple of times on the Blood for Irina DVD cover .. but the very first time i was asked to sign something was by Dyanne Thorne - who made a few of us sign a Fangoria magazine for her (the one featuring her)
