Where this month&#8217;s special<br \/>\nconvention guests included a very svelte looking Kerr Smith from &#8220;Dawson&#8217;s<br \/>\nCreek&#8221;, Johnathon Schaech sporting longer than usual hair from &#8220;That Thing<br \/>\nyou Do&#8221; and &#8220;Time of your Life&#8221;, Phina Oruche from &#8220;Buffy the Vampire<br \/>\nSlayer&#8221; and Alexis Thorpe from &#8220;The Young and the Restless&#8221;. All present to<br \/>\npromote their upcoming Vampire horror film The Forsaken which open towards<br \/>\nthe end of April and that I reviewed several months ago for Dark Horizons.<br \/>\nOne of the primary reasons I attended the convention in the first place,<br \/>\nsince I was curious to see if any changes had been made since it was first<br \/>\ntested about 6 months ago. Although according to the cast none of them were<br \/>\naware of any changes and Johnathon Schaech also went on to state that no<br \/>\nreshoots had taken place at all. Which kind of surprised me since I know<br \/>\nfrom what I saw and overheard at the test screening I attended that there<br \/>\nwere a lot of scenes or things about the film that simply didn&#8217;t gel or<br \/>\nneeded to be reworked. Leading me to believe that this film will not do as<br \/>\nwell as the producers and subsequent actors would hope even though the<br \/>\nentire cast who was present at the convention did seem genuinely<br \/>\nenthusiastic and even excited about the film and their respective roles in<br \/>\nit. Albeit that sort of enthusiasm can be easily faked by any actor worth a<br \/>\ngrain of salt.<\/p>\n<p>Still I would like to give everyone the benefit of the doubt and will even<br \/>\nmake it a point to see the film anew when it comes out, especially since the<br \/>\ncast was gracious enough to sign all the stuff I brought with me for friends<br \/>\nwho either loved Kerr Smith or Johnathon Schaech. Which reminds me I think<br \/>\nMr. Smith was a bit freaked out by the large number of male fans who showed<br \/>\nup to see him and some of the weird questions he was asked by them. That you<br \/>\nkind of have to assume you are going to get if you look like Kerr does and<br \/>\nare on a show like Dawson&#8217;s Creek playing a gay character. And speaking of<br \/>\nDawson&#8217;s Creek, even though I did not specifically ask Kerr Smith if he was<br \/>\nreturning to the show or if it indeed had been picked up for another season,<br \/>\nhe never mentioned it when he was asked what his future acting plans were<br \/>\nwhich leads me to believe he might not be coming back next year? Either that<br \/>\nor he couldn&#8217;t be bothered to mention it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Cherie for this.
