Santoro

Prepare to be grappled violently!

About Me

I am the mighty Santoro, Protector of the Pea and Punisher of Puny Pusillanimous Persons. Prostrate yourself in my presence, peons!But seriously, I am a guest star on Saturday Fright Special, New Hampshire's first and only Horror-Host Television show, starring Scarewolf and guest starring Tae-Kwon Dunk and Morbia Poppotopulous. By day, I wear the guise of a mild-mannered teacher and at night I don the hat of producer, writer and director for SFS, but when the camera comes out, I am SANTORO!Visit www.saturdayfrightspecial.com to learn more about our 2 hour time travels back to horror's past of the 1950s, 60s and 70s and how you too can be a part.

My Interests

Peas. Snap peas, snow peas, and especially garden green peas.When I have time, I read like crazy, get outside in my garden and in my boat and try to watch old movies and old tv as much as possible. I must admit a total craving for 50s and 60s beer commercials.

I'd like to meet:

Princess Peapod, palace preener par excellence, but especially people who like the vibe of older horror movies that are shot well, written well, don't always turn out well but are entertaining on some level.There are also the lovely ladies Barbara Steele, Dawn Wells, Debra Paget, Helga Line, Luana Anders, Cynthia Meyers and Luciana Paluzzi.

Music:

Pea-col Harum, The Am-Pea Dukes, the Peatles.

Movies:

The Day the Pea stood Still, Ulzana's Pea, Once Upon a Pea in the West, Midnight Pea-boy.

Television:

Have Pea Will Travel, Peasmoke, McHale's Pea, Hogan's Pea, Gilligan's Pea, Pea Trek.

Books:

To Pea and Pea Not, Harry Peater and the Goblet of Firepeas, The Gulag Archi-pea-lago.

Heroes:

Vincent Price, Mario Bava, John Agar, Giacomo Rossi-Stuart, Michael Rennie and Green Lantern!
