Original 'Scream Queen' Vampira Has Abandonded This Mortal Coil... (and NO, dorks: I don't mean the band!)

Before Elvira, there was Vampira:

Unfortunately, she died penniless. A memorial fund has been set up to preserve her memory in the historic Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

Darkest Dreams to you, Vampira ♥...

SHORT FILM SEEKS EVENT CURATORS/PROMOTERS/etc.!

Do you curate a festival?

Put together a monthly "screening party" in your home town?

Have an interest in providing a venue/outlet for a short 'art-house'/experimental film?

Host a reading series in a gallery or performance space where an 11 minute (at least I think that's the length...it's definitely under 15 minutes) black and white motion picture could be added to the roster?

Know of any showcase for experimental art in your area?

I'm trying to help find other places to screen Hilary Goldberg's excellent work of meta-fiction and modern noir

entitled

"In The Spotlight"



INTERESTED IN SERIOUS INQUIRIES FROM JUST ABOUT ANYONE, ANYWHERE... THOUGH OF PARTICULAR INTEREST ARE SCREENINGS IN THE UK (especially London!), FRANCE, GERMANY, BELGIUM, ITALY... AUSTRALIA, AND OF COURSE: CANADA ♥

I know this is a 'shot in the dark' -- but hey, that's what my life's been thus far!

Correspondence is welcome either through my personal site:

www.clintcatalyst.com (Click "Contact Clint")

or through the filmmakers' site:

WHATEVER THE CASE, THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

QUICK AND EASY FAVOR, PLEASE...

I know requests like this are annoying-- but since I've fulfilled them for so many bands/"picture buzzes"/model contests myself, I ask that you please help a hooker out over here!

All you have to do is:

1) Add www.myspace.com/bigshotlive as a friend, then

2) Leave a comment stating that you vote Clint for TV host,

Audrey Kitching for modeling.

(unless, of course, you're not a fan of both of us... then a comment on one person's behalf will suffice)

MANY OF YOU MAY BE ENTERING THIS CONTEST LATER AND END UP OUR COMPETITION, BUT THAT'S O.K.... ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU PLEASE DO THIS FORM OF "PRE-VOTING" NOW

Well, that...and forgive me for all the correspondence I've yet to answer.  I'm trying to catch up; I PROMISE

I PROMISE

I PROMISE!

Hey...I Scored A Page In The Current Ish of Instinct Magazine.

And I ain't mad about it!

Ain't mad about it at all. =]

Here's how it looks on-line:

CLICK HERE FOR INSTINCT!

I want to extend supermegabuttloads of gratitude to Alex Cho, Robbie Daw, and the mag in general.

Press in the "Gay Men's Magazine With The Highest Readership" makes me feel all validated and shit... Seriously.

Particularly since last month's "Pop Quiz" was with Beth Ditto, whom I effing adore.


I'm being overtaken by a wave of exhaustion and am in dire need to catch some Zzzzzs, but I'm hitting the sheets with today having been pretty damn great. Got my mug shot by Dirk (a.k.a. "Fingers Crossed" Photography) and was able to visit with Lilian and Guinivere, then went with Pedro for vegan pad thai, followed by hooking up with Ali for a screening of "In The Spotlight" at the Egyptian. I heart that dang Hilary Goldberg, who--true to form--said such kind things during the Q & A, it almost made me forget that this WGA strike has me "broke as a joke"; yet regardless, I need to show more support at the picket line.

Whether your preference is for pleasant dreams or skull-splitting nightmares,

I bid thee farewell...

OH MY DEAR LORD. DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO *YOU!*

Here's proof that it's not always a good idea to sublet one's bungalow when leaving town. The things I discovered on this video clip via "Nanny Cam" are morally reprehensible, but I felt it my duty to share them with more ENLIGHTENED individuals as a cautionary tale.

Sublets are NOT "EASY MONEY," PEOPLE! The meager income I made now has to be squandered away on feng shui and sage "smudging" by established professionals!
