Film Flesheating bloodthirsty bunnies
Posted by Ed M. Koziarski on Fri, Jul 10, 2009 at 10:01 AM
Horror model Andrea Eve of Living Dead Gurl stars in two of the three films screening in tonight's free exploitation extravaganza Bang-a-Thon, presented by Bang-Up TV at the Portage Theater.
With Mark Gavin, Eve co-directed Vamphoppers, a tale of "flesheating bloodthirsty bunnies," and she also plays the lead in Gavin's Insanity, which will screen with live organ accompaniment by Jay Warren of the Silent Film Society of Chicago.
Also on the bill: David Krumholtz of Numb3rs stars in Jason Neudecker's action short Demption.
Also featuring a Britney Spears Toxic Karaoke competition. Bang-a-thon is tonight at 8 PM at the Portage, 4050 N. Milwaukee. Eve and Gavin will be there for Q&A.
Showing 1-18 of 18
i was at the event also, even with the roller coaster ride of cancellations, they still pulled through and put on a very funny and entertaining show. films were great and andrea eve was fabulous! vamphoppers is definitely one for the books and destined for a cult classic
I really enjoyed the movies. This is first class entertainment. Banguptv.com came through big time. I can't wait for their next production. Britney chose well to be linked to this group.
I was at the event tonight. It was a great show of movies and everything. Even with all the cancellation of things, the show was still awesome! Me and my group provided everyone else who was at the show with a mini show of the Karaoke of Britney Spears' Toxic, which was very fun! Andrea Eve was also on hand and even shot a few photos with us!
kudos for sticking to it, everything was great, even though there were problems everyone in the cast and crew still pulled it through and delivered a funny interaction with the audience as well as 3 amazing films and an absolutely hilarious fan performance to britney spears. bravo all!
andrea eve & co's material comes across like a midwesterner's blend of troma entertainment. shade of lloyd kaufman tempered with attractive casting. entertaining chicago indie horror flicks! svengoolie would have been the quintessential and perfectly suited host for this event! looking forward to the next event.
sweet show n kudos for gettin through all the cancellations n stuff. the movies were well above my expectations. I was a part of the spears group... i did the worm which was awesome lol
Mark Gavin (aka Mark Goles) is widely known internet scammer. Give "Mark Goles" a google and see what you find. Stay away from this man and anything involving him. He is simply bad news!
heard this rumor a few times, but, if it was all true, how would there be time for them to pump out all the content they are including a show for Spike TV?

Just wait 'til happens to you or someone you know.
He's shooting most of this garbage on DV camera scammed from Indianapolis, IN.
Here's the real "Mark Gavin."

Ever notice that Jason Neudecker is Mark Goles, I mean Gavin? Why is this guy always changing names?
Im pretty sure jason neudeciker is the director for the movie demption and gavin is the director for the other ones... little jealousy on something there mateo?
They're not "doing" a show for Spike TV. ANYONE can post content on Spike TV. It's like getting your stuff on Youtube.
Check out Universal or Lionsgate's websites and do a search for "Vamphoppers" and also check the industry trades... nada, nothing... Gavin/Goles is like the Ed Wood of the midwest.
I ALSO READ A RUMOR THAT HE SCAMMED SOME BAND FROM BOSTON DURING A PAPA G SHOW OF PICTURES AND VIDEO AT THE PORTAGE THEATER WHERE THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AT FOR THE PERFORMANCE, THEN I THOUGHT, THAT THEATER ONLY HOLDS 1,000 PEOPLE IF THEY ARE LUCKY. AND THEN I HEARD THERE WERE ONLY 20 PEOPLE AT THIS SHOW. I ALSO READ THAT SOMEONE SAID ON ONE OF THOSE SITES HE STOLE THE TAJ MAHAL. SEEMS LIKE THOSE SITES ARE JUST LIKE THIS, ANYONE CAN POST AND SLANDER SOMEONE.
"Britney chose well to be linked to this group." LOL... I bet if Britney's people knew how her name and image was being linked to these clowns they'd bring a hammer down so hard it would knock the hillbilly teeth out of their mouths...
I find it funny that the only comments that are favorable to the show all come within an hour time frame, right after the show. Probably just one person
Mark Goles, Mark Gavin, and shit.
He LIVES right above the portage theater, so take police there and go arrest him.
I looked through the postings and went into detail, the postings were all done on the same IP, so unless all those people that favored the event was under one roof, they were all done by mark goles.
