Tonight
is the unofficial official start of the 2013 Days of the Dead horror
convention. Like last year, it is starting away from the actual host
hotel with a concert by First Jason – the thrashing metal band
fronted by none other than Ari Lehman; the actual
first Jason. Once you see First Jason in action, you will believe a
man on a keytar can wail. We had a blast at the pre-party last year
and will be attending this year’s as well.
Me
and the missus have been anticipating this con since the end of last
year’s. A horror con is a lot different from anything else; more
laid back and yet a little… well, not wilder – weirder.
Yes. Weirder than Dragon*Con. You should probably go ahead and check
out my recap of last year.
What else do you have to do on a Thursday?
I
didn’t bother trying to apply for a press pass this year after not
even getting a reply last year. This is a good thing, as Mrs.
Troublemaker was able to score a free pass by simply writing a
flattering e-mail. I am not fucking kidding you. And she didn’t
even include a naked picture or anything. She was actually just
asking if they gave discounts for local retailers and they just
hooked her up with a pass. So if I had sent an e-mail detailing
Needless Things and the thorough coverage that I would be giving
their show and they couldn’t even spare a moment to type “Not
interested” and hit Send, but then showered my wife with passes for
typing one vaguely complimentary missive that would have been pretty
fucking irritating.
So
as it is I’ll be paying full price to get in, which is fine because
it’s worth it. While I do enjoy free stuff, as long as I’m
getting my money’s worth I’m happy.
The
only real reservations I have (other than our hotel room – HA!) are
about the location. Last year Days of the Dead was held at the
Peachtree-Windham in Peachtree City, which is a weirdo fucking place.
Peachtree City is this surreal town where rich people drive golf
carts around and there is this eerie feeling of separation from the
rest of the world. The atmosphere lent itself very well to a horror
convention, particularly our adventures
through the Rape Hole.
This year we will be in the familiar, if shitty, surroundings of
Downtown Atlanta; which isn’t quite the same. Granted, all of
Atlanta inside the perimeter is its own Rape Hole of sorts, but it
doesn’t have the same provincial creepiness as Peachtree City.
Being in such an unfamiliar place definitely added to the feel of the
con.
But
I do like the Sheraton. I’ve stayed there before for Dragon*Con and
it was great. The only reason I would never stay there again is its
distance from the Hyatt, Marriot, and Hilton. It’s only a couple of
blocks, but when you’re trying to get from one panel to another
that time really means something. Even the Hilton feels too far away
sometimes. But since Days of the Dead is contained in just the one
hotel, I think it’s gonna be great.
Like
any con, I hope you’ve been saving your money and putting your
costume together for a while now. This thing is gonna be awesome.
Let’s get down to business.
GUESTS
This
year has a raging shit-ton of guests compared to last year, and last
year had plenty. There’s a great variety to the people here, from
television and movie actors to wrestlers to local nutjobs. There’s
going to be a little something for everybody. I can’t say there is
anybody I’m as excited about as I was about Roddy Piper, but the
overall quality is better and last year was great, so that’s really
saying something.
There
are three main groups of guests united by common movies, and then a
huge assortment of other folks. This is big, so let’s do it:
House
of 1000 Corpses/Devil’s Rejects
Tom
Towles, Jennifer Jostyn, David Reynolds, Irwin Keyes, Walter Phelan,
Robert Mukes, Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, PJ Soles, Michael Berryman,
Leslie Easterbrook, Ginger Lynn Allen, Danny Trejo (Friday &
Saturday only), and…
DIAMOND
DALLAS FUCKING PAGE!
I
understand that the last name may not be the same draw for others
that it is for me, but DDP was my favorite back in the WCW days.
There were plenty of guys I liked, but DDP was the best. His feud
with Raven over the US Title is one of my all-time favorites and I
can’t wait to meet this guy. Well, meet him again. I’ve spoken
briefly with him at The Masquerade when I worked there and at the
Pink Pony once, but I was all mumbly and goofy. Now I’m loud and
goofy, so things should go better.
I’m
debating on whether or not I want to bring my one-sheets down to get
signed. I’ve already got Haig and Moseley on the Devil’s
Rejects
one. But that’s a lot of people and getting stuff signed gets
fucking expensive, even if it’s not folks the caliber of the Master
of the Diamond Cutter. I do have a Machete figure, but there’s no
way my
DDP figure
will get here in time because MattyCollector.com sucks fucking llama
dicks.
Return
of the Living Dead
Brian
Peck, Jewel Shepard, Alan Trautman, Beverly Randolph, Thom Matthews,
Don Calfa, John Philbin, William Stout, and Linnea Quigley
This
is a solid group of folks and I definitely want to see if they do a
panel. This was my favorite zombie movie for a very long time. It
might still be, it’s just that there are so many more zombie movies
now than there were fifteen or so years ago.
Blair
Witch Project
Joshua
Leonard, Heather Donahue, and Michael Williams
These
guests are also panel-worthy. I may not be the biggest fan of the
movie – something I don’t blame on the movie itself, but rather
the circumstances under which I first saw it – but I bet this will
be a fun panel if they do it.
Okay,
now let’s check out the
Unaffiliated
Guests
Ace
Frehley
– Okay, obviously Frehley is a HUGE draw for a lot of people. I
love KISS like you’re supposed to, but I’m not jonesing to meet
any of them. Well, except maybe Gene. I’d like to get some business
advice from that guy.
Patty
Mullen
– She was Frankenhooker. Wilson is gonna kill me, but I have never
seen it. The VHS cover always creeped me out and I’ve never
admitted that before now. I don’t think I want to meet
Frankenhooker.
Dick
Miller
– Miller is a character actor who has been in everything.
He’s a solid booking and I bet could do a panel all by himself.
Gunnar
Hansen
– I want to get a picture of the original Leatherface next to my
Leatherface tattoo.
Jake
“The Snake” Roberts
– For the first time ever I’m really pissed that I sold all of my
WWE Classics action figures. I had a hundred or so still on the card
and just didn’t have room for them. If I hadn’t sold them I’d
have a DDP and a Jake to get signed. Dammit. I want to get a picture
with Roberts, but I’m not ashamed to tell you that he scares me
even more than Frankenhooker.
Kane
Hodder
– I don’t have a picture of me in the mask with Hodder. The last
time I met him the whole family was with me and we just went for a
family picture, which is one of my favorites. This is a guy who has
plenty of action figures, but I don’t have any on the card. I wish
I had a Jason X for him to sign.
Tom
Savini
– What a fucking legend. I met him years ago at Dragon*Con. He
wasn’t necessarily pleasant, but he was okay. It was a really good
experience because it prepared me to meet famous people that might be
less than excited to meet me. He was one of the first non-musician
celebrities I spoke with. Up until that point I had only met Mr. T
and DDP and they were both great. Actually, I could have just stopped
there.
Michael
Perez
– I have no idea who this guy is. He has something to do with Never
Sleep Again.
I don’t know if that’s a book or a movie or a web show or what.
Ari
Lehman
– Ari kicks fucking ass and is a super-nice guy, to boot. He
chatted with me and the missus last year unsolicited and was just
massively friendly. He also absolutely wails on the keytar. Yes –
seriously.
Brent
Hinds
– I’m sure that three out of four people who have ever lived in
Atlanta can say this, but Brent crashed on my couch long ago when I
had no idea who he was. He was just friends with my girlfriend at the
time and needed a place. I thought it was pretty cool later on when I
found out he was in Fiend Without A Face, let alone years later when
I found out he was in Mastodon (three albums in – I’m bad about
liner notes; I didn’t even know Mastodon was from Atlanta). Anyway,
Fiend Without a Face is playing at Days of the Dead and I am
super-stoked about that.
Eerie
Von
– Eerie was the bassist for Samhain and Danzig.
Chelan
Simmons
– The hot chick from one of the greatest movies of the past five
years, Tucker
and Dale vs. Evil.
Yeah, I know I narrowed it a bit with the whole “five years”
thing, but I didn’t want to get overly hyperbolic. For a change.
John
Dugan
– FUCKING GRAMPA! From Texas
Chainsaw!
Awesome! The first time I ever experienced people having a serious,
critical discussion of horror movies was almost twenty years ago.
Wilson and Dego were discussing Grampa’s presence and what it meant
to the Texas
Chainsaw
series.
Mickie
James
– This wrestler has absolutely nothing to do with horror as far as
I know, but I don’t care because she is fucking hot and can
actually wrestle. Unfortunately, Ms. James is my pick for Most Likely
To No-Show.
William
Katt
– The star of House
(the great horror movie, not the irritating TV show) and Greatest
American Hero.
Awesome.
Clu
Gulager
– Mr. Gulager has the wildest resume on the guest list, as he’s
been in everything from Alfred
Hitchcock Presents
to The
Killers
to the Feast
movies to an absolute ton of 80’s television. With a career that
long and impressive he would be another great one-man panel.
James
O’Barr
– The guy that created The
Crow.
And you know – the original comic still holds up. It’s easy to
forget how impressive it is after the excellent first movie spawned
such wretched turds as sequels. But go back and check it out. It’s
still a good read and a massive accomplishment in the medium of comic
books.
Diane
Goldner
– She was in Feast.
John
Gulager
– Clu’s son and director of the mostly-awesome Feast
movies.
Marilyn
Burns
– The Final Girl from Texas
Chainsaw Massacre.
Butch
Patrick
– Eddie Munster. I think he’s a great guest, but not anybody I’ll
track down.
Brian
O’Hallaron
– O’Hallaron was Dante in Clerks,
which makes him officially the oddest guest. Some might argue that
the wrestlers are more out of place, but me and a whole roster of
monsters and grapplers would disagree with you.
Howard
Sherman
– He played the captured zombie that that idiot scientist attempted
to train in Day
of the Dead.
People
from The
Walking Dead
– I do not understand how Rodney Hall is not listed here. WHAT THE
FUCK IS GOING ON!?!
And
MORE! – I’m going to go ahead and lump everybody else in under
this heading. My reasons are that I don’t know who the rest are,
there are a lot of them, and it’s getting late and I still have
more to cover.
Vendors
The
vendor room was both awesome and hazardous last year. Awesome because
of the selection of rad stuff, hazardous for the same reason. We
discovered an excellent toy vendor called Galaxy of Junk and spent a
billion dollars there. They are back this year, so I’m bringing an
extra billion.
The Belligerent Monkey
and Galaxy of Junk will both be returning this year and Urbnpop
and Jason Flowers will
be there for the first time. I highly recommend you spend the bulk of
your money with them. After that you can check out everybody else:

Events
I’ve
gotta say that the events were a little sparse last year, but you
know what? It was kind of awesome that way. The whole weekend was
very laid back and relaxed – the exact opposite of Dragon*Con. I’m
actually a little concerned that this one will be much more hectic
and crowded because it’s downtown. At the very least there will be
a lot more hipster douchebags there. Hipsters don’t have cars, so
they couldn’t make it to Peachtree City from their converted lofts
in Downtown Atlanta last year.
Thursday
9:00
PM - Days of the Dead Atlanta Pre-Show Party with First Jason at The
Earl
– We’re not going to be able to party quite like we did last year
on Thursday. We don’t have a room for Thursday night and have to
get Lil’ Troublemaker to school on Friday morning. But we’ll
still be hanging out and shooting some video of the incomparable
First Jason.
Friday
I
actually feel bad that we’re not going to be able to help Monkey
set up this year. That was a lot of fun last year. As it is, we’ll
probably be arriving right before the events get started.
5:00
PM – Doors
Open
– No actual events at this time, but you will be able to enter the
Vendor and Guest rooms. I actually recommend you plan on arriving an
hour or two earlier so you can check in and be ready when the doors
open. We were there for the opening last year and there was nobody
else there. We got first pick of all the merchandise and I knocked
out most of my autograph needs (“needs” – ha) immediately.
6:00
PM – “Best
of” Buried Alive Film Fest
– I’m not entirely sure what this is. I mean, obviously it’s
screenings of some sort, but I don’t know of what. It lasts 4
hours. I’ll be busy in the Vendor and Guest rooms.
11:00
PM – Monsters
Ball with DJ Tre
– I kind of liked this guy last year. He did his best to mix horror
samples with music, but it just didn’t quite work. It was a cool
vibe though, and I’m willing to give him another chance. I just
hope they don’t bring back the horrendous opening DJ that played
nothing but douche rock. Here’s the event blurb:
Its here.AGAIN...Time To Dance With The Dead!!!
Now that you know whether your coming to Days Of The Dead Atlanta or not...and if your answer is YES..Then do NOT miss the most deadly dj set at any horror convention. Brought to you by none other then The Rockstar DJ TRE!!! DJ TRE is known to bring elements of horror, music, visuals and energy that will wake the dead and pummel the living!!! Friday Night's MONSTER BALL is known for its sick costumes, beats and alcohol fueled fun!!! DO NOT MISS THE MADNESS!!! RSVP, Share and BE THERE!!! your love and support of these afterpartys keeps them going and getting better and better!!! Celebrity Appearances, Giveaways and Silly Fun Times PERIOD!!!!
Costumes Strongly Encouraged!!!!
11pm- TIll????

12:30
AM – Karaoke
– Oh, Hell. I wasn’t aware there was going to be karaoke until
just now. I need to figure out a song. You have no idea how much
preparation went into my horrible performance of “Falling to
Pieces” at Dragon*Con.
Saturday
Not
only is Saturday likely to be the busiest day as far as attendance,
there are two hours of must-see panels right after the con opens.
This is another good reason to get your Guesting and Vendoring done
Friday evening. Last year I was concerned about how close together
the panels were scheduled, but they were pretty good about letting
them go a bit long if needed and then just working around things. It
wasn’t a rigid schedule, more like a suggestion. I think that’s
easy to do when you don’t have eight thousand panels scheduled
across five hotels.
11:00
AM – Doors
Open
– The Guest and Vendor rooms will be open to the public. VIP
attendees get in 30 minutes early.
12:00
PM – Return
of the Living Dead
Panel
– I like the fact that the panels start at noon. I think we can
assume at least a couple of the guests affiliated with the movie will
be on this one. Should be good.
1:00
PM – House
of 1000 Corpses
Panel
– This is a can’t-miss for me. Whatever else is going on, I will
have my ass planted in a seat for this one. I hope it’s in a big
room because I think it’s likely to be the best-attended of the
weekend.
2:00
PM – “Best
of” Buried Alive Fil Festival
– Still don’t know what this is, but it’s going to have to be
something special to get me to watch a movie for two hours while at a
con.
4:30
PM – Tattoo
Contest
– I don’t have tits and a vagina, so I’m not going to bother
entering. I know how these things work.
6:00
PM – Wickedbeard’s
Costume Contest
– I won’t be entering because the costume I do have planned isn’t
exactly something that will have a broad appeal. I probably won’t
be attending, either, because unlike Dragon*Con this one is small
enough that you’re going to see everybody’s costumes out in the
halls anyway. I guess if I was an actual journalist or if somebody
was paying me to cover this thing I’d go.
8:00
PM – VIP
Party
– VIP attendees (people who paid a
lot
of money for special passes that grant certain benefits) get two
hours of guaranteed partying with an unspecified selection of Guests.
10:00
PM – Concert
– Bozarth, Fiend Without a Face
– I’ve never heard of Bozarth, but I am definitely stoked about
seeing Fiend Without A Face. It’s been a long time since I saw them
play. The last time was probably at The Point over fifteen years ago.
Somebody told me they still play around town from time to time, but I
can barely keep up with national acts coming through town. It’s
tough keeping up with local stuff.
My
concern here is that they’re only giving this thing an hour. I
don’t know how you have two bands play in one hour. Unless Bozarth
is some kind of dancing monster that’s just going to be hanging
around and dancing while Fiend Without A Face plays. Which is
possible, I guess.
11:00
PM – Chambers
of Horror Murderball and Sideshow Party
– Last year this was the event where Mrs. Troublemaker invited
herself onstage and mooned everybody. So stay tuned for that. Other
scheduled entertainment likely includes another game of Wheel of
Death, which was a lot of fun last year. Here’s the event blurb:
This
year at DAYS OF THE DEAD: Atlanta 2013 Chambers of Horror will be
throwing the MURDERBALL and SIDESHOW party in the Sheraton Saturday Feb
2nd.

Sunday
We
were originally going to stay Sunday night as well, but things seemed
to get pretty sparse on Sunday so we cancelled that last night. On a
side note, I have made two calls to the Windham to alter our
accommodations and they have been incredibly helpful, pleasant, and
swift each time.
12:00
PM – Blair
Witch Project
Panel
– I’d like to see this one, but I’m not sure we’ll still be
around. I can’t remember when check out is, but I think we’re
planning on heading over to the Atlanta Comic Convention. Just so I
don’t seem like I’m totally dickwalling Days of the Dead’s
Sunday plans, I’ll wait until the end to talk about that.
12:00
PM – Atlanta
Zombie Apocalypse Show
– Professor Morté will be putting on a live makeup demonstration
as well as performing live kills right there on stage! Expect all the
humor and showmanship of the Silver Scream Spookshow combined with
the gruesomeness and horror of the AZA!
1:00
PM – Texas
Chainsaw Massacre
Panel
– I bet this will be a really good one, but we’ll definitely be
gone by this time.
I
know I was a little snarky about a few things up there, but the
bottom line is that every single person in our group – indeed,
everybody at the con – had a fucking awesome time last year. I
would go so far as to say we had more fun than we do at Dragon*Con if
only because it was so much more relaxed and actually felt like a
vacation. Days of the Dead is an absolutely awesome time and if
you’re into horror and anywhere near Atlanta it is a must.
Right now regular passes (VIP is sold out) are $45
and they go up to $60 the day of the show. Either way it’s totally
worth it. There’s not a single Hooligan that was there last year
that wouldn’t agree with me.
If
you can make it, I’ll see you there.
Okay,
now a bit about Atlanta Comic Con, which is at the Marriot
Hotel-Century Center. It’s my favorite one-day show and is always
even more of a treat because they are so rarely scheduled on my off
days. There’s a great selection of regional dealers and a nice
little group of guests. Super Bowl Sunday is always one of the bigger
shows, so we want to be sure and pick up Lil’ Troublemaker in time
for the whole family to go.
