CRAIG AMABELLO GETS A JOB!

avatar
User Rating: / 2
Yes folks, you heard it hear first... Craig Amabello found a job as an editor at a Boston productionfacility!

  Do you know what this means?

  I can finally stop beating up & robbing helpless old ladies as they leave Wal-mart with their prescriptions... I mean money.

  I no longer have to sell crack to school children... (kids these days aren't really into crack that much because they are all high on mommies prescriptions from Wal-mart)... Remember, Wal-marts the kinder, gentler people store... They won't allow dirty words, or nudity that would pervert fragile little minds... But they have no problem selling GUNS & DRUGS to the Filthy masses to blow holes in both your MIND & BODY!

  America... What a concept..... Ya just gotta love the Lunacy of it...

  As I now have a full time job editing Commercials for the web I can finally start paying for my real Addiction...... craigstv. I have been attempting to get my web channel off the ground for many years now & it looks like I'm about to start reaching phase one of a multiphase project!

  With the pennies I will be earning from my editing gig, I can afford studio time, tape stock, wardrobe & props to kick off my deranged & whacky web shows. It will be quite raw, wild, raunchy, disturbing & yet, artful, delicate, educational, informative & Delicious....

  My shows will have lots of Web Cuties.... Hunky men... Serious Humor & wonderful Rock & Roll for the Masses to laugh... Scream... Boo & Hiss at.

  I promise there will be something disturbing for everyone. The most discriminating of tastes should be shocked, mortified, horrified & slack jawed once I am through with my over the top Dark, twisted brand of Sickness & humor.

  Remember kids... It only took me 3 damn years to find a real job in film & video production on the internet.... I hope YOU people have much better luck than I.

  In the mean time if you want to check out a little of what I am all about...

GO TO: http://www.youtube.com     AND SEARCH FOR: CRAIG AMABELLO

  I have lots of my old stuff up there.... My very first Original "Reality TV Show... (long before such an animal actually existed) & old rock & roll from my old band. I also have several new Vlogs talking about my fall from grace in life & Hollywood & just general garbage that might make you laugh... Smile... Giggle... Or maybe just PUKE!

  Who knows... maybe you fine folks of Boston might find it interesting to see what crap pours forth from a demented X-Hollywood Outcast such as myself.

  Please check it out & post your comments... I would truly love to know what people really think!

  Don't be shy.... Tell it like it is.... Should Craig Amabello be put into a mental Institution? Locked up in prison & throw away the key? Or should I be put on stage as the opening act for Hillary Clinton's Campaign for the presidency of the Untied States of America?

  You tell me....... I really, really wanna know what people honestly think.

  Am I a misunderstood Genius?... Or just a Moron?

  Only you folks can tell me that... & I beg of you to watch my stuff on youtube & post your TRUE feelings.

  Well, gotta go... I'm trying to get a hold of Kevin Smith so I can work on his new movie " Zak & Mira make a Porno"..... (Because I do know a thing or 2 about Porn).. Wish me luck & don't give up the good fight.

  REMEMBER: We are surrounded by Mental Midgets that think they are giants.... But ignore these cretins... For eventually they will fall down & not be able to get back up.

  For I am Craig Amabello.... A Weeble.... Because... Weebles Wobble.... But they Don't Fall down!

Rock On.

Your truly Demented Reporter & X-Hollywood Reject,
Craig Amabello

Another Boston Film Night: "Bonus Features"
Sponsored by Imagine Magazine
Sunday, December 2nd
7:00PM - 9:00PM
The Regent Theatre
7 Medford Street
Arlington, MA 02474
Admission: FREE (suggested $5 donation)
Click here to RSVP!

Didn't get enough of the first Boston Film Night? Missed the event entirely? Well, here's your chance to see what's happening on the Boston film scene.

Local actor/writer/improv comedian Dennis Hurley has teamed up with Boston Film Night founder Kevin Anderton, of Midnight Chimes Productions, to bring you Boston Film Night: Bonus Features.

Says Hurley, "My production company, Downcellar, and I were eager to screen our latest comedy short, A Briefcase Full of Knives, and my friend/collaborator, Kevin Anderton, was eager to screen some of his material. So Kevin and I decided to rent out the Regent Theatre in Arlington and tag on a second Boston Film Night to the end of 2007. We also collected the best of this year's New England comedy shorts to screen along with our two main features. We hope to create a fun night of film, comedy and networking. And remember, it's a free event!"

The screening will end with A Briefcase Full of Knives, in which Hurley stars. When asked about the film, Hurley called it "an underdog comedy" you could describe as "Sideways meets Catch Me If You Can."

Following the screening will be a networking party at the Knights of Columbus near the Regent.

Networking Party:
Knights of Columbus
15 Winslow Street
Arlington, MA 02474
9:00PM - 11:00PM

BFN2007blogcopy.bmp

 

Beanywood, the New England Film Movement  turns ONE!!!

  Come celebrate with us at Boston Film Night where it all started!  Saturday night September 22nd from 6pm to 2am.  There are two shows of local independent shorts, a networking event, and an after party.  Come meet the people in your industry, get connected, and be more involved in your industry.  35% of the shorts playing in the festival this year were made by filmmakers and actors who attended Boston Film Night last year.

Over twenty local indie shorts representing Boston’s emerging independent film talent will be shown.   Some notables:  A trailer for the feature film Possessions by David Kornfeld, The Terror Training Video by Tom Bennett, Telemarketing Orphan by Justin Fielding, and a semi-naked cooking show Cooking With Canned Goods from Kevin Anderton.  Several organizations also will be contributing directly to the programming: Woods Hole Film Festival, The Roxbury Film Festival, The Boston Underground Film Festival, and the 48hr Film Project will be supplying films.  Boston Film Night’s goal is to gather the local film community, screen work created over the last year, and energize support for local film.  Last year’s event drew over 500 attendees.

If you are coming, check this link out to see what other people have to say about their experience at Boston Film Night 2006 and who they want to meet this year.  Add your own comment for everyone to check out before Saturday!http://www.beanywood.com/component/option,com_mycontent/task,view/id,843/Itemid,436/
