    Terry Alexander at Horrorhound

    After years of trying to find Terry Alexander, I finally was able to. If any of you Day of the Dead fans have ever wanted to meet Terry, you finally will have the chance to. I've got Terry booked for his very first convention appearance with Horrorhound in Indianapolis in March 2010. I have Terry booked for a couple of other shows as well, but I want to wait until they officially announce him on their sites. So, if anyone here plans on coming to the Indy show next March, please stop by and say hi.

    They also have announced Terry as a guest at Texas Frightmare Weekend in Dallas next March. Good job, Lee!

    Man, I'd like to make it out to Indy just to meet John Harrison. Is he doing any other shows?

    Thanks, Jim. I can't wait for these shows! There's one more show, but they usually wait until January to release their guest lineup.
    As for John Harrison I have no idea if he will be doing any other shows. Next year is the 25th annv. of Day of the Dead, so a lot of the cast & crew are making the convention rounds, at least that is what I've been told. Hopefully John will do several shows. I was fortunate enough to meet him in person at the Andy Warhol museum here in Pittsburgh a few years ago for a screening of Effects and he was a very nice guy. If there is anyway possible, try to make it out for the Indy show. Hopefully I'll see you there!

    Perhaps you could convince Terry to want to come to Orlando for Screamfest next Oct.? They had a nice Dawn 30th anniversary reunion in 2008 (Romero and Gaylon Ross cancelled....grrr), would be a perfect place for a Day 25th anniversary. I hope the convention people think to do that. It would be nice is John Harrison would come down here too! You know, I have looked at most of the major convention pages from across the country, and it seems that Orlando has by the far the biggest and best guest lineup.

    You mean you did not know where he lived?

    I seriously wish I could go and meet him. I wonder if he put on that accent for Day? If not, I'd accuse him of showing up at this convention for free food and drink and not lifting a finger to help. He may then respond by saying, "My job is to fly the whirlybird. I've been doin' that job just fine."

    The closest I get to one of these is California, and that's even a ways away. Tell 'em to bring it on up to Boise, ID. We have a few places to have a convention. They've even made movies here before.

    Hahaha, I don't know why I didn't even think of wondering if Terry would have his accent going for the con! I hope so!!!

    I wonder if he will be tired of fans asking to hear lines in the accent after the Horrorhound con? Especially if this is his first one.......

    He'd better brush up on his lines, that's for sure!!!

    Cool! Someone should ask him about what happened with him dropping out of composing the Survival soundtrack. Were any of his themes included in the final movie?

    I finally got to meet Ken Foree and Sid Haig. What a blast, had to share it with you guys! Mike Christopher loved those custom zombies of him I have.

    You came all the way to HorrorHound and didn't get a photo with Terry Alexander, Michael Gornick, John Harrison or Charles Craig? COME ON!

    I have to admit, I don't care for them as actors that much enough to get their autographs. Day was also my least favorite of his films.

    Why are you posting about meeting Ken Foree and Sid Haig in a thread that's about Terry Alexander?

    Geez... really weak, dude.

    All of these gentlemen were very gracious with their time and were taking photos with fans for FREE. Not to mention that John Harrison was also signing autographs for free, as previous noted just a few posts above yours.

    Besides, Michael Gornick and John Harrison aren't actors -- they've had a hand in many aspects of George Romero's films and are like walking encyclopedias about the produuctions. Anyone that posts here should know that and would jump at the chance to talk with them for five minutes.

    And you also could have met two regulars from HPOTD, but apparently that doesn't count for very much either.
