The South Carolina State Museum opened it's latest exhibit, Hollywood Comes To South Carolina, and many movies I've worked on are included in the exhibit. It's very very cool to have this kind of exposure. I mean, how many people can say they got something in a museum? Most of 'em are dead artists anyway, so this is truly an honor.
Props and posters from Bath, The Death Brand, and Wiseguys Vs. Zombies are included, as well as a poster from The Philosopher and stuff from my homie Adam's Ankle Biters. I got some pics up from the opening of the exhibit in my photos here on MySpace, but I'll throw some on this blog too.
Here's the outside of the museum:
The Independent's Exhibit, featuring some of the flicks I've worked on:
A cool write up on the walls about the Independents -- the bottom pic is a closer look at how Adam and I are name-dropped. COOL!
Here's me and BATH star James Sheridan Smith (Furey) in front of the BATH stuff:
I'm looking for Lake Houses ( or homes that can pass as lake houses) for a feature film shoot. The movie will be shot in August and we would need use of the house for 6 days. Come on, people, and help me out. This is for a very ambitious project and we need to nail down our locations.
If you can help me out with this hit me up on SurfAnderson (Kevin). I can offer a few more details on the project, but suffice it to say that it will definately be a kickass flick.
Just checking in with tons of news on THE DEATH BRAND. Everything is going great with it, and we cannot wait for you guys to see this one. You're going to love it.
Adam got the first teaser trailer finished up and online and its great. You can view it below, but I would suggest reading this brief write-up from Joblo/Arrow In The Head first.
The producers of the upcoming horror film SURVIVAL have teamed up with SURFANDERSON.COM to throw together a fund raising party to promote the movie at the Texas Frightmare Weekend in Dallas Texas in June.
As people in the Upstate know, SurfAnderson parties are GREAT for local exposure. So the producers of Survival are seeking a band who is looking for that kind of exposure to play for an enthusiastic crowd at the upcoming fundraising party.
Several upstate SC actors appear in the film Survival and will be going to the Texas Frightmare Weekend to promote the movie. The costs of promoting the movie, as well as transportation costs, food, etc. can be very expensive, so the good people at SURFANDERSON have given us the opportunity to raise some funds by having a SURFANDERSON/SURVIVAL party in May.
We need a band and/or a DJ that wants local exposure but can afford to play for free to provide the entertainment. We would also welcome any donations of liqour/beer/food for the party.
Of course, for aiding us in this venture the band/DJ will have a special credit in the movie as well as gaining new fans by playing this gig.
If interested, please contact Kevin Woods (writer/producer of SURVIVAL) here on myspace at www.myspace.com/kevinwoods68 or email at kevin@kevinwoodsonline.com
Survival is a lil movie that I co-wrote and produced (and even appear in) that we shot in North Carolina last year. It will be premiering in Texas in June at the Texas Frightmare Weekend. I couldn't be more excited about this.
Several Anderson residents either acted in or helped out on this movie, including a few SurfAnderson members. So check,check, check it out!!
More on Survival can be found at its myspace page : www.myspace.com/survivalmovie
Survival stars Anderson residents Ian C. King and Vic Aviles. Associate producer J. Alan Johnson makes a memorable cameo as "Frank", the ultimate party crasher.
Survival also stars Matt McClure (Ocean's 13, Veronica Mars), Vanelle (The Cutting Room, Desolation), Don Prentiss (Doomed to Consume, The Ancient), and RickyLee Leonard (Murder Set Pieces, The Red Skulls, Cordoba Nights).
I fucking love this song. GZA (from the Wu Tang). BIBLE.
Basic instructions before leavin' Earth Basic instructions before leavin' Earth Basic instructions before leavin' Earth
Chorus:(X2) Life is a test, many quest the universe N' through my research, I felt the joy N' the hurt The first shall be last N' the last shall be first The basic instructions before leavin' Earth
(Killah Priest) Knowledge this wisdom, this goes back when I was twelve I love doin' right but I was trapped in Hell Had mad ideas, sad eyes N' tears Years of fear, but yo my foes couldn't bear I searched for the truth since my youth N' went to church since birth, but it wasn't worth the loot That I was payin', plus the prayin' I didn't like stayin' cuz of bizzie-bodies N' dizzy-hotties That the preach-ass souped up with lies Had couped up, lookin' at loot, butt N' thighs During the service, he swallowed up the poor N' after they heard this, they wallowed on the floor But I ignored, N' explored my history that was untold N' watched mysteries unfold N' dropped the jewel like Solomon, but never followed men Cuz if you do your brain is more hollow then Space oblivia, or the abyss With no trace of trivia, left with the hiss Does it pay to be deaf, dumb, or blind From a slave he was kept from the mind N' from a caves he crept from behind N' what he gave was the sect of the swine When the bible, that condemned the pig I don't mean to pull your hems or flip your wigs But we used to wear a turban, but now were in the urban No more wearin' beanies or dress like the genie No hocus pocus cuz I focus on the facts N' put it on the track or brought it through the wax I speak on Jacob, it might take up some time
N' too much knowledge, it might break up the ryhme I did it anyway, just to wake up the mind Of those who kiss stones or prays on the carpet Those who sit at home, or sell books by the market Need to chill N' get their mind revived For years, religion did nothing but divide
chorus(X2)
I strolled through the books of Job to unfold N' opened bibles, instead of hopin' on revivals Callin' on his name N' screaming Halleluja When he hardly knew ya, that's how the devils fooled ya See, look into my eyes brethren, that's the lies of a Reverend Why should you die to go to heaven The Earth is already in space The bible I embrace A difficult task I had to take I studied till my eyes was swollen N' only arose when I found out that we were the chosen I deal with the truth N' build with the youth N' teach my son as he kneels on the stoop Son, life is a pool of sin, corrupted with foolish men N' women with wicked minds who build picket signs To legalize abortion, the evil eye extortion I quiz some with my wisdom Before I converted I was perverted N' knowledge was asserted The study of wisdom, I perferred it The understandin', it gave me mental freedom I even learnt Caucasians were really the Tribe of Edam The white image of Christ is really Cesare Borgia N' uh, the second son of Pope Alexander The sixth of Rome N' once the picture was shown That's how the devils tricked my dome I prophesized to save a man but no one gave a damn For my nation, the seed of Abraham Blessed with the tongue of Hebrew Now we're strung on needles, N' some are plungin' evils So study N' be wise in these days of darkness Peace to my nephew Marcus
Yep, its that time of year now...time to file your taxes. Hopefully you don't have to pay in and uncle Sam will send you a nice refund check. That's how it has worked out for me the past few years (YAY for children! haha).
So I normally get a large refund check, and that's a good thing, right? Of course it is! Except that I have a big problem with money. It burns holes in my pockets. I have to spend it. It doesn't matter if I'm down to 5 dollars, I'm sure I'll find something to spend that 5 bucks on. I can NOT save money to save my life.
And when the government sends me that big ol' income tax refund check I tend to blow it quickly. I love having money. I hate that I feel compelled to spend it so damn quick. Been trying to hold on to this years refund, but since getting it just a week ago its over halfway gone. The sad part is that I have very little to show for it.
Oh well, I like spending money. I just hope that I can find a way to hold on to some of this money in case some emergency comes up. Otherwise I might have to hit you up for a loan. haha
