The Masters of Horror Dinner

Jun 10, 2010

Had another Masters of Horror dinner last night. It’s actually been a while since I’ve attended – I missed the last one due to shooting SUPER. I never know who I’m going to end up talking to at these things – last night, I had great conversations with David “Twilight” Slade, Adam Green, and Quentin Tarantino. We missed some interesting former attendees – Rob Zombie, Wes Craven, Joe Lynch, Edgar Wright, John Landis, Dario Argento, Larry Cohan, and more – but it was still an intense night of fun and food.

Anyway, I posted this poto on TwitPic and asked people to name everyone. No one did. So here’s the key:

Robert Rodriguez, Rose McGowan, Brian-Trenchard-Smith, Eli Roth, Ryuhei Kitamura, Ryan Schifrin, Guillermo del Toro, Tim Sullivan, Joe Dante, Tobe Hooper, William Malone, Adam Rifkin, Adam Green, Mick Garris, David Slade, Quentin Tarantino, James Gunn, Ernest Dickerson, Tom McLoughlin, Darren Lynn Bousman, Ti West

And here’s a couple more photos:

All photos courtesy of the great Adam Rifkin.

And, so you don’t come here just for photos, I’ll repost this insane and sadly hilarious video that’s going around. It’s real, but seems as if it’s out of Best in Show:

That video you posted is the real horror. Even horror films depicting a sense of verisimilitude cannot rival the hate and ignorance that was shown there. Do those blowhards really think what STRAIGHT PEOPLE DO in the privacy of their bedrooms is any better? Why don’t they go after people who fuck animals? Creatures who have no way of protecting themselves. Personally, I’d like to take a blowtorch to each and every, *cough*, “human being” who practices bestiality, and I’ll throw in pedophilia and child rape as well. The straight followers of Jesus Christ have caused more human suffering and pain throughout history than any atheist or agnostic ever has.

I signed up for the site specifically to say this: That video clip is from an episode of Vanguard, a documentary series, usually about controversial subjects. Here’s a link to the full episode: http://www.hulu.com/watch/150328/vanguard-missionaries-of-hate

The full episode has a lot more of that. The main speaker there shows people graphic gay sex scenes to scare them into supporting anti-gay laws.

Would making homosexuality illegal also make eating pooh and licking poop shoots illegal as well? I don’t think so, maybe I’m wrong.

There is also a guy in the lower corner that looks kind of like a caricature of you.

Is that the name David Slade fights under, it probably won’t strike much fear in the heart of his opponents.

That soup is precariously close to the edge of the table.

Seriously though, that’s an awesome group of dudes.

Speaking of horror directors, it’s Mike Mendez’s birthday today. Wish him an awesome B-day, man.

I know of all those directors, but strangely I could only recognize like 7 or 8 of them.
