Monday Motivation

I'm Elegantly Satan!
Michael Shinafelt

With only seventeen days left until Halloween, we are in the final countdown, fer sure. Thus today I thought I would give you Monday Motivation in the form of something Devilish, that one time I dressed up as Satan for Halloween!

"Yes" this is me as "Hot Satan" down on Santa Monica Blvd. during the West Hollywood Halloween Carnival, I believe this was in 2010, Yeah nine friggin years ago.

I'm not one to plan some elaborate time consuming sort of costume, so I basically used things I had, bought a set of horns, put on some dark eye make-up and abracadabra, "Hot Satan." What's that? No I did not have to go out and purchase the riding crop, it was a gift I received one year for my Birthday from...fluff up your pillow and fantasize minions.

So today's Monday Motivation exists solely to get you in the spirit (pun intended) for Halloween since it looms nigh.

Have a Groovy Goolies Day!

AHS: 6

Woo Hoo! It's Friday July 1st which means it's the 4th of July weekend aka vacation time!

I thought the first glimpse/tease from American Horror Story Season 6 or 666 as I like to now refer to it as would be a fun way to kick it off.

By the looks of it this October is going to be a devilish time on FX. My AHS theory that I am sure many of you fans share is this is the season we find out what happened to the demon baby from AHS season one Murder House.

Perhaps little Bartholomew, Lady Gaga's progeny from AHS: Hotel will be along for the ride.

Keep those theories coming and T.G.I.F!!!

Re-Animator The Musical - Extended !

Watch Your Back! Re-Animator The Musical

Extended by Popular Demand!

Stuart Gordon Directs

Re-Animator™ The Musical

At Steve Allen Theater

• Now Running in LA Through Sunday, November 23, 2014

• New Las Vegas Run Starts Tuesday, January 6, 2015

Having a hit musical can cause scheduling conflicts, especially when it's extended! My congrats go out to Stuart Gordon and his stage version of the hit cult film, Re-Animator! 

Yes, the ubiquitous Mr. Gordon was supposed to give a full length interview to Entertain Me, but due to both of our conflicting schedules it was unable to be made into a reality. That being said Stuart will appear in my special Halloween piece, and trust me you will not want to miss the devilish comment he gave for All Hallows Eve.

Re-Animator is a great horror comedy film and I hear the musical version does not disappoint. I am one happy vampire that it was extended, thus making it possible for me to attend on November 8th!!!
