Interesting in meeting other like minded folks. Mostly interested in collaborating with amazing alternative/dark artists out there, I love the energy that happens when a couple (or a bunch) of people click and produce something fantastic. I especially get along with other FX artists very well, we are able to geek out on all the good stuff.Thanks for viewing my profile. If I don't know you, feel free to message me, but please know that I am trying to keep my friends list to those folks I actually know. Thanks!Specific folks I would love to meet (that I haven't already) include, David Cronenberg, David Bowie, Johnny Depp, Rob Bottin, Rick Baker...

I love dark children's stories the best. Such as Nightmare Before Xmas, Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and Legend. Big fan of horror, sci fi and fantasy. I also enjoy art and foreign films. I like movies with personality style and substance, that leave me with a lasting impression or have a great impact on me emotionally. Other life altering favs include J.C. The Thing, Alien and Aliens, Bladerunner (the original not the directors cut), Ladyhawk, Beetlejuice, Jan Svankmeyer's Alice, Brother's Quay in general (but especially The Epic of Gilgamesh), R.O.T.L.D., N.O.T.L.D, Reanimator, Dead Ringers, The Fly (Remake), Videodrome, Hellraiser I, II, and IV (not so much three, all athers do not count), Nightbreed (of course), and pretty much any story where you end up really likeing the bad guys, cuz they are interesting or beautiful. I love monsters.
I haven't watched TV in over five years (unless at someone else's house), there are so many other things I can waste my time with... more productively, with less mind numbing worthless consumerism involved. However, when it is available, or finally comes out on DVD, I LOVE the new Battlestar Galactica, How It's Made, Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, Futurama, Ninja Warrior, The Daily Show...
Are good. I like the same kind of books as movies. Fantasy, sci fi, horror, etc. Yes I am a Potter fan, so fuck you all! I also enjoy Terry Prachet, Douglas Adams, Tolkein, Lewis, Asimov, Philip K Dick, Richard Mathison, Baker (of course), King (like his shorts best),
I am not fond of the hero word, but these people have had a huge positive effect on my life and work; Clive Barker, Danny Elfman, My Parents, David Cronenberg, Dick Smith, Rick Baker, Rob Bottin, Greg Nicotero, Steve Tolin, Wanda, Doug Henderson, Michael T Schneider, Damon & Amber Maranya, Brus Westby...
