Chiller Guest List so far...

[Blue Meanie]

I'm not a huge fan of Horror but this list for the Chiller Show in Jersey this year looks impresive so far. Here's the link to the guest list:

Chiller Theatre - Guests! (http://www.chillertheatre.com/gt/gtc4.htm)

Chiller has really morphed into a pop culture show more than horror, It sort of happened gradually. I remember in the ninties it was all about having guys like Coffin Joe and Michael Berryman, now horror guests are in the minority.

Three SWEATHOGS all in one place? That's cool, especially since Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs is hard to get a hold of...

I does look pretty cool. Would love to meet Linda Hamilton!

The only problem with higher end guests, you can see from a mile away they really don't want to be there --- and to me, it kind of ruins it, including my good memories of them onscreen.

Truth. My best friend and I last went to Chiller a few years ago. For the first time we went to the autograph tent, and you could tell who had fun being there (the cast from Willy Wonka, Gary "Radar O'Reilly" Burghoff, Michael Jai White, etc.), and the ones who didn't (Traci Lords, etc.). My buddy nailed it - "This is where celebrities go when their phones stop ringing." Harsh, I know, but that statement kind of stuck ever since.

Hopefully, I'm wrong, and Burt and the crew this year have a blast, but I do agree Chiller's become less about horror and more about pop culture stuff. Shame, really, but I do have great memories (one year I picked up a MINT Mego Spidey... for $10! Some girl was waiting for her boyfriend to come back to their table, I saw the Spidey, asked how much and she just sais "uh, would $10 be OK?" SOLD.) :drool_y:

Wow! What cool guests! Too bad I can't go.

Wow, that is a DIVERSE list there. So many non-"genre" celebs there. Burt Reynolds? Morgan Fairchild? Weird.

Surprised to see Richard Dryfus on the con circuit. I guess he hasn't done much lately though...

Wow, William Schallert is still alive? I thought he passed years ago.
