C2E2 2011 Day 3: Christopher Mangun Talks Archaia’s ‘Feeding Ground’!

It is often times hard to take a glutted genre in a new direction, especially when it comes to the werewolf sub-genre.

Enter Christopher Mangun, co-creator of Archaia’s “FEEDING GROUND”. Chris was kind enough to sit down and talk about the series with us over the weekend, and inside you can check out the interview in its entirety. Read on for the skinny!

C2E2 2011 Day 2 Exclusive: ‘Boy Wonder’ Director And Cast – Michael Morrissey, Caleb Steinmeyer, And Zulay Henao!

xfAdmittedly, when I first heard of the precariously titled ‘BOY WONDER’, I was skeptical on many fronts. The first being that I didn’t foresee a film by such a ‘Batmanesque’ title as ‘BOY WONDER’ to be a dark, twisted, pulse pounding vigalante film with plenty of violence to go around. However, after getting a chance to see the film this past week I have to say that I joined the ranks of the many critics who have handed the Indie such high praise. The film, directed by Michael Morrissey, premiered today at The Con, and inside you can get our exclusive interview with Michael as well as stars Caleb Steinmeyer (‘LOST’), and Zulay Henao (‘FEAR ITSELF’, ‘S.DARKO’)!

C2E2 2011 Day 2: Drew Gaska Talks ‘Critical Millennium’ From Archaia!

It is always a nice change of pace when you get to discover new stories as well as old favorites. Take for instance Andrew Gaska’s ‘CRITICAL MILLENNIUM’. At the time that we were approached for the interview with the Archaia produced series, neither myself nor collegue Johnny_Trouble had heard of the Sci-Fi series before, much less read it. However, after reading all three books the night before, we both went into The Con this morning genuinely excited to sit down and chat with Drew, and we were not disappointed. Inside you can check out the full video interview with the scribe. Read on for the skinny!

The crowds are predictably larger than that of Friday’s turn out, and if today is any type of barometer for what we can expect later on in the day, we are going to be in for a LOT of fun. Below you can check out our ‘pre-game show’ show of sorts where we get you (or make a valiant attempt) pumped for the insanity of Day 2…
