by Armand Vaquer

A presentation on 1950s science-fiction movies has been added to the opening day (April 8) Friday night line-up of Monsterpalooza:

The presentation features Bill Warren, Ted Newsom and "Mr. Dino" himself, Donald F. Glut.

It will take place following my presentation on Japanese monster locations, but in the AFM room at 9:00 PM at the Burbank Marriott Hotel and Convention Center.

Happy Birthday, Christine Nguyen!

Happy Birthday, Christine Nguyen!

by Armand Vaquer

Actress/model Christine Nguyen (The Mummy's Kiss: Second Dynasty) celebrates her birthday tomorrow.

By coincidence, I also will be celebrating my birthday, although I've a few years on Christine.

When she found out that my birthday falls on the same day as hers, she said, "OMGoodness! You're birthday is on February 4th, too?!?! So cool! You are the first person I have ever known with my birthday! We must remember to toast each other that day!"

I'm entirely not sure, but I think a relative of mine also has her birthday on February 4.



Christine is currently in a contest called The 1 Contest. She has received many votes since Ted Newsom (who did the poster above), Don Glut and I started campaigning for her, but she needs more to have a chance to win. So...to help make Christine's birthday a good one, go to the link below and vote for Christine.

To vote, go here: http://www.the1contest.com/. Voting ends March 15.

Happy Birthday, Christine! (From one Aquarius to another!)

Christine Nguyen Filming "Bikini Jones"

Christine Nguyen Filming "Bikini Jones"

Christine Nguyen reports that she's now in the midst of filming Bikini Jones. She said, "Harrison Ford made it look so easy."

At least Ford didn't have to wear a bikini in his movie.

The movie is a humorous send-up of the Indiana Jones movies starring Harrison Ford. It involves a desperate hunt for an ancient artifact with gloomy temples, dinosaurs, double-crossing CIA agents and evil villains. And, lest we forget, an occasional undressed lady for variety.

Ted Newsom is also in the movie in a substantial role. He reports that most of his scenes are with Christine. He says that she makes it easy for him as she knows her lines.

Director Fred Olen Ray has been busy of late. He's making several movies over these past few months including Bikini Frankenstein, Bikini Jones, Lust At First Bite, Housewives From Another World and License To Bare All.

We previously reported on Bikini Frankenstein and Lust At First Bite.

It appears that the recession hasn't stopped Fred Olen Ray's movie output any!

Christine is also having a busy and productive year as she seems to be going from one project to another. She recently returned from Japan (her first trip there) and she recently was filmed for the upcoming Green Hornet movie. And, she also appears in a commercial for a Harrah's resort down south near San Diego.

Besides Bikini Frankenstein, director Fred Olen Ray directed two other flicks in eight (8) days: Lust At First Bite and Girl From Bikini/Right To Bare All. Ted Newsom had substantial character roles in all three. The three are produced by Dan Golden.

Here are some exclusive photos from Lust At First Bite*:
