Pretty cool to see so much Hellraiser stuff. I first watched Hellraiser on VHS during the summer of 2002. My family moved to Las Vegas, but due to issues I had to spend a month in a motel room with my family, and then another month at my grandparent's new house and we all sat down and watched Hellraiser out of sheer boredom. I was very disappointed. Mainly due to a nitpick and that was how Frank comes back alive. But I gave it a second rewatch a couple years ago and now I'm a big big fan. Love Hellraiser 1 and 2. Have only seen parts of 3 on the Sci fi channel. Very cool of her to inform the person "I was in part 2, not part 1" before she signed the part 1 poster,lol. Very nice of her to do.
Nicolas Vince was so much fun. We happened to be staying on the same floor at the hotel for the weekend. By chance, I also got to ride the elevator down with him as he was going out to dinner Saturday night, and as we were going down to breakfast on the third floor Sunday morning. Such an easy fellow to chat with. Hope he comes back to ATL for more conventions. Also, you should’ve stayed for Saturday as well. Their Hellraiser panel that afternoon was an absolute riot. They had the whole crowd laughing it up the whole time about set stories and so forth.
I know it was Friday, but it’s so strange to see Doug Bradley with no queue. He did a con here in the UK last year and he was so busy that people were being turned away.
did the chicago one as an artist vendor back in the fall. kinda the same. parking was not idea, but def sounded like yours was worse. i was mostly tied to my booth the entire time and got to meet some very enthusiastic appreciators of my work. before the con opened on one of the days i did a walk through of ours which was mostly just one big room. most of the celebs werent at their tables but did see a few greats. i was there to make money though, not spend it so i resisted temptation.
Location is a down side. Need better signage. Parking is an issue. Thinking it might be the convention it self has out grew the parking lot. We got home and had additional charges on our cards still working through. Sign board across the street advertised as 15 dollar parking. Turn out it was 25 a day better than hotel 45 plus. Restaurant hours did not work for us either.
Glad things got better with the guests since the venue wasn't well matched for a con. Dean Cain or Dave Sheridan are my guesses. Thanks for sharing the trip. The Mad Monster in Charlotte (when I live) has Kevin Spacey coming this year and some are complaining about that. Not sure if you had heard about it. Thanks for sharing your trip.
Thanks for watching! I have heard about Mr. Spacey coming to Mad Monster and talked about it on my last live stream. Check it out here: czcams.com/users/liveYXgucb_3_WY?feature=share
Kinda funny, we went to this last weekend in Chicago and my wife and I got a pic with heather langenkamp and she autographed her Freddy doll well Michael ironside was at the table next to hers and as we were leaving, we went out to the hall to get some water before we headed to ashley laurences table I was like hey what’s up Michael he gave me the what’s up head gesture but said hi ya doing baby to my wife, when we went out to the hall I laughed and said first time I saw that guy in anything was total recall and never would imagine 34 years later that same guy would be calling my wife baby, we both thought it was funny
Looks like you got to meet some good guests. I’ve only ever meet Ashley Lawerence and Doug Bradley. We have Monster Mania coming up near me soon in March. The lineup is insane I can’t imagine how crowded it’s gonna be.
@@pizowellmet her 2 weeks ago at the Chicago dotd, such a sweetheart, you’re lucky you got to meet Claire Higgins I really wanted her autograph and pic with her but she wasn’t there neither was Clive, they must’ve cancelled
Did you buy anything from the ClayGuy saw you walk by his table it was in video for less than a second… I think the autograph and drawing combo on the hellraiser poster is a nice touch
Whaaat?! You were at the days of the dead in Atlanta on Friday?? I was there too that day, crazy! And ill be honest man i been to this conventions many times but this was the weakest its ever been, a lot of cancellations and the vibe just felt off this time around for me.
This Days of the Dead was a mess! My wife and I have been vendors at DotD Atlanta for a few years now -- this was our 5th time here -- and it was.. ..something else. I understand the Sheraton is under new management now and boy, did they ever drop the ball with this! Hopefully, they either get things sorted out or the event planners find us a better site next go 'round!
The most mismanaged and disorganized convention I've ever been to was Days Of The Dead Louisville 2019, rivaled only by Fright Night Film Fest (pick any year). I've concluded that Louisville doesn't have much to show for in the way of horror conventions...
I’m sure Sean Clark looked the other way if he noticed Piz, doesn’t seem like the type to be confrontational especially to a dude that’s twice his size, I’m sure he remembers him tho since he couldn’t take any criticism and is too used to having his ass kissed by Halloween fan boys
This is how you film a convention recap.
Direct and to the point, while giving an honest opinion about what worked and where improvements can be made.
Thank you!
Dang, Days Of The Dead is coming to my area for the 1st time in July and looks like a lot of the same guests will be there as well. Great video Piz!
I can't recommend the Hellraiser folks or Debra Hayes more!

I would have loved to have attended the Hellraiser panel.

We might him in Charlotte in 23. All weekend he had a short que.
@@dotsadventures2020 Damn
Meet him. Sorry for that typo

You going to be at Full Moon in Nashville in March or Scarefest later this year?
@pizowell will be checking into for sure. Haven't committed to much this year yet

Sounds worth it for the Hellraiser peeps. I'd guess the bizarre encounter was The Exorcist demon lady. Hopefully not Ironside - I like that dude.
They were 100% worth it! It wasn't her.
man that walk through 🔥
Thanks!

So far has anyone guessed which guest you had a bizarre encounter with? 😂❤ I’m guessing Michael Ironside

I'd love to meet Ashley Laurence. I almost did one year at Scarefest, but she canceled.
@@pizowellmet her 2 weeks ago at the Chicago dotd, such a sweetheart, you’re lucky you got to meet Claire Higgins I really wanted her autograph and pic with her but she wasn’t there neither was Clive, they must’ve cancelled
Blimey Piz , i can recall going to see the first Hellraiser movie when i was 16 yrs old. So was Sean Chapman or Andy Robinson there ?
No, they weren't. Had they been, I would have definitely gotten their signatures, too.
Love the sexy haircut brother 🔥
Thank you, Lee! 🤘
Looks like a fun time! Is that an original one sheet for Friday The 13th Piz?
No, it's not an original, but that poster has got a lot of miles on it!
@@pizowell I bet, I know rolled originals do exist but they are hard to find!
Was it Michael Beihn?! We must know, Piz! 😂
If it’s him, heart this message. Don’t need written acknowledgment. lol
It wasn't him.
Did I spy Mick Foley
Yes, you did!
Excellent video Piz! As for the bizarre interaction I'm gonna guess BAM Margera
No, not him.
9:27 Was that mick foley “band bang” *also I think the culprit you had ur weird interaction with was was Doug Bradley*
It wasn't Doug, and that was Mick Foley!
Looks like a fun time was had, i would've went broke in that vendor room.
I'm surprised Claire does conventions
I don't think she does many. She was awesome to meet!
Sean clark
Lol, no.
Did you buy anything from the ClayGuy saw you walk by his table it was in video for less than a second… I think the autograph and drawing combo on the hellraiser poster is a nice touch
No, I didn't. I like his worth, though.
Thumbs up number 100🎉

The scary movie guy duffie
Looks like you had a fun time despite the cons.
I did. I had a great time.
Dean Cain was the weird one? I remember him being in that Not House Of The Dead movie back in the oughts.
Hmm the weird persons first name Michael?? Looked at the list of guests . Hard to guess lol
Piz just wanna say you are looking great!!
Thank you! 😎
I really hope the strange encounter wasn't with Doug Bradley or Heather Lagenkamp.
Imma say the weird encounter was with Bam Margera from Jackass
Tom savini
Wow, Piz, how tall are you? You make the actors look so small. I heard Bam Margera was there, was he the disaster?
I'm 6'4".
@@pizowell So it was Bam. Spill it Piz!

I still have convention PTSD from the last Fright Night Film Fest I went to. 😔
Did you let Sean Clark know his "Halloween Tour" was disorganized? 😂😊

clark is king
Doug Bradley
No.
@@pizowell Good to hear.
did you take the stairs? That would've been your money shot. really what's a Horror convention without some curiosity?
