I’m sure most of you have heard of Rock & Shock 2007. It’s working to be one of the biggest horror conventions this year. In case you haven’t heard of it, PJ reported on it last week. The official website has dropped some news about another guest scheduled to be there. Andrew Divoff of WISHMASTER and TV’s LOST glory will be dropping by this year. Now I’m sure most of the people out there are more familiarized about the LOST bit, but what caught my eye was the WISHMASTER bit. I’ve always been a fan of WISHMASTER, so it’s pretty sweet that Divoff will be dropping by.
Now last week it was announced that Greg Nicotero, who seems to be a special effects and make up artist, as he’s worked for such films as GRINDHOUSE, both HOSTELs, both HILLS HAVE EYES, SIN CITY, LAND OF THE DEAD, CHRONICLES OF NARNIA, TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: THE BEGINNING, and some film called TRANSFORMERS. And Kane Hodder, who starred in HATCHET, JASON X, JASON GOES TO HELL, and FRIDAY THE 13TH PARTS 7 & 8 will be attending. So as you can see, these are some big names going into this thing. Not to mention some of the other guests which can be found below.
Rock & Shock 2007 is taking place in Worcester, MA on October 12-14. THREE DAYS OF MUSIC, MONSTERS, AND MAYHEM! Yours truly will be attending this bad boy, so I am officially stoked.
