Dead and Breakfast (Unrated Edition)
Around 10 years ago, a friend came over with an R rated movie. He knew I was was massively into zombie films, and I love B films. This friend changed my life from that point on... It became my 2nd favorite b film of all time,
The first one being Evil Dead (all three are smashed into one cata-GOREy) Third one being Troll 2, being named BEST worst movie. (YES I am part of that Following, "YOU CANT PISS ON HOSPITALITY!")
So he puts the DVD in, and the opening menu comes up with this awesome beat, and a song that knocked my socks off. At THIS point I had a feeling I was going to LOVE this movie, (I already LOVED the song on the Menu) as well as the awesome comic style artwork.
10points for the Music and Artwork already!
So the movie starts, and I already notice a GREAT cast lineup, and the movie is narrated very cleverly.
Osgood aka OZ Perkins known for Legally Blonde, and continuing on the legacy alongside his father (as his Father Tony played Norman Bates in all 4 films), I first spotted as young Norman Bates in Psycho 2
Jeremy Sisto (everyone's favorite Jerk, Elton from Clueless) as well as Suicide Kings, and George on the HILARIOUS Suburgatory (I miss that show)
Erik Palladino who for some reason the thing I ALWAYS remember him first in Can't Hardly Wait, as Amanda's Cousin who tries to pick her up, (he is in TONS of other things, I just remember THAT role most (remember, all these examples are what I remember these people from not from looking them up)
Bianca Lawson the one who is Forever 17 (First thing I ever remember seeing her in is Sister Sister, and Saved by the Bell, Also playing a teen on the last season of Buffy, as one of the Many Chosen ones, and Most recently I spotted her in one of my favorite obsessions, Pretty Little Liars as Emily's love interest Maya on Season 1 of Pretty Little liars (again playing a TEENAGER, that gorgeous woman does NOT age) and Witches of East End (I LOVE that show too!! UHHH!)
The FABULOUS cast goes on an on including Cameos from Dietrich Bader and David Carradine
(who will forever be dearly missed for a lifetime!)
(who will forever be dearly missed for a lifetime!)
*Random Trivia Fact Ever Carradine plays alongside her uncle David, and her father is the KING OF THE NERDS
in REVENGE OF THE NERDS movies (and Lizzie McGuire's dad! too)
first thing I ever remember seeing her on was Diagnosis Murder... don't know what that is? An old show from the 90's with Dick Van Dyke! (awesome show!) It took a LOT to recognize her, because she has grown so much, she was pretty #ganky on the show, but DURING the movie, one scene made me realize she was Robert Carradines Daughter right before my FAVORITE part of the movie. There was a spacific look on her face that made the light bulb go off (check video below).... THATS ROBERT CARRADINES daughter, shes GOTTA be related at least! and she sure is!
(and If I missed your name, you are still loved, I really enjoyed the entire cast!! I just want to get to the TOPIC of my post (I will keep adding things about all of you, and make this my longest post ever! seriously, best group ever, and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU made this movie great!)
But what REALLY got me was the singing gas attendant (say WHAT?) YES, let me repeat myself, the singing gas attendant...The group DRIVES up to this tiny little town on the way to a wedding, and they are looking for a place to stay. There is a group of guys and the one with the guitar starts singing a charming little diddy, which doesn't impress the group, but I sure liked it! He introduces himself is Randall Keith Randall. The movie continues on with the Narration getting funnier and funnier, and the story getting more and more situation-ally hilarious! I definitely don't want to give away the best parts, but if you love charmingly cheesy b films, this one REALLY is at the top of the list of BEST ONES in my opinion.
And I REALLY don't understand why there are less than 700 facebook likes on IMDB on the Dead and Breakfast Page!
Give him some love! Go Like him on IMDB!

Anyway, this Charming gas attendant sings throughout the ENTIRE movie *and according to the DVD notes, he wrote all the songs in a matter of a few days after reading the script, PRETTY AMAZING!
AND HE WAS INCREDIBLY familiar to me, I just couldn't remember WHERE!
This man is named Zack Selwyn and he plays alongside his band Zachariah and the Lobos Riders
If you haven't heard of him or them, I suggest you check them out, they are pretty fantastic, I am SURE you have seen him, he is in a TON of things as well. This is Zachariah and the Lobos Riders singing "We're Comin To Kill Ya" in the movie... and yes, SINGING DANCING VOODOO Zombies, not your TYPICAL mindless zombies, but ones that talk to you (like in the epic Return Of The Living Dead)
UPDATE!
#RandomRecognizer isn't perfect, and sometimes misses a few along the way!
Can you spot another famous face that I missed?
on the Winnebago is Billy Burke on poor mans stand up bass (He has been in a TON of things, First thing I remember seeing him on was MAFIA! And Revolution, but now is known as Bella's Father Charlie Swan on the Twilight Saga!) & John Oszajca on 5 gal drums (who you can find on the Mystery Men Soundtrack (WOO HOO!) as well as a few others!!)
Brooke Allison Kivowitz - Zombie dancer with the black jacket, red shirt & foaming at the mouth is the baddass choreographer of this movie, (this one I knew, But I still love, and DEFINITELY deserves credit!)
*Thank you so much Kari Payton for pointing these out! One of the best Casting Directors ever! Thank you for bringing this group together! You all forever changed my life and warmed my bloody heart!
PS to my readers... If you love the movie, and Love the cast give them some love & LIKE them on IMDB! Then go watch some of their other stuff!!!
Here is the TRAILER to the movie Below, if you haven't see it, you should DEFINITELY give it a chance!
After I saw this movie (I didn't even hear about it until a year or so after it had already been out) Zach started showing up EVERYWHERE on TV again for me! I was watching Scare Tactics, (sorry no screen capture) and THERE HE WAS! I was so excited, it was the first thing I saw outside of Dead and Breakfast with him in it! It was a GREAT SHOW, Great episode, I remember it had to do with a cult, and he was the leader! If you haven't seen that show, I suggest checking that out too!
THEN I am watching reruns of Sabrina The Teenage Witch Season 4, episode was called Love in Bloom and THERE HE IS AGAIN! TOTALLY #ganky *Norm McDonald was also in the episode and played the BLUE robin, he was called a robin, but he was ALL BLUE lol) There's all kinds of confusion on who sent a secret admirer letter to the Spellman House, and it ends up in a MESS, but in the middle of all this, who happens to grab a cup of coffee? I remember them talking about getting to flirt with all the cute guys... that's for sure!!
Sabrina The Teenage Witch
Season 4, episode Love in Bloom
No he isn't a love interest, she has 2 already in this one!
(IMDB says HE is on another episode, I have SEEN them ALL, but can't remember the other episode to save my life, I NEED to watch it again (I do know he was a voice-over, announcer though ;-) )
THEN I turn on That 70s show, it was one of the later seasons (season 8) GUESS WHAT? YEP he was on it! It happened to be the episode with Christopher Knight and Barry Williams, you know, Peter and Greg from The Brady Bunch!? As well as The Village People! (If you don't know who they are, you must have been frozen for like 40 years)
$6 for a beer? Poor guy, prices from the FUTURE eh?
That 70s show Season 8
We Will Rock You
The Disco Bonfire episode

Then several years later I was watching the Disney channel. (yes, I am in my 30s and I like the Disney Channel, get over it! lmao) and a show called Kickin It came on... I had never seen it, so I started watching and BOOM, THERE he was again! (I started watching the show after that, I already liked the actors on it from other shows... :-D
( *I don't have a picture of this yet, If anyone can produce one for this spot that would be awesome!)
Then I decided go to the internet, see what else I can find. When I went to Youtube, he had a whole page of hilarious songs and skits. He writes the FUNNIEST STUFF. You don't believe me? Go check out his Youtube
ANYHOW. He started showing up on bigger things as himself, as a writer/guess many times on Attack of the Show, the host of Punkin Chunkin, Hosting along side Dan Cortese in Guinness World Records Gone Wild and Host of Americas Secret Slang... now if you haven't seen any of these, you are missing out BIG time!
So If you haven't heard of him before I suggest you keep your eye on his IMDB
and his Youtube
And specifically look up CILF, and some of his other HILARIOUS SONGS
Lets get this guy more views! He has a good following, but Lets make it GROW!
*I am still surprised to this day that Every time I mention Dead & Breakfast, No one has heard of it!
