David Yow's actually not a bad actor.

There's a little seen indie feature called Bullet on a Wire, by Jim Sikora, in which he has a feature role.

The movie itself...not great, but it has its moments and it's an interesting enough plot and narrarative, and Yow's pretty good in it.

I've heard about this for a while: it looks pretty interesting. The movie is supposed to be a really fucked up take on the "revenge" kind of western, which is kinda fucked up through tradition anyways (High Plains Drifter).

Yow looks pretty scary.

Eh...I'm really not to keen on Jim Sikora's Super 8 stuff, and I like Super 8 narraratives, generally.

Danny Plotnick's Super 8 stuff, on the other hand, I dig. Underseen comic genius.

+1. I actually have this movie, which was written by Joe Carducci, and I'm still undecided on it. I will say, however, that Yow's performance was one of the highlights.

I saw a clip from some black and white movie he did a while ago where he was wearing a lot of makeup and moving like a lizard... anyone know the name of that? I always wanted to see it. Something really creepy/intriguing about it.

I saw this movie, which was terrible, but it was really cool to see David Yow acting. He was pretty good, and I'm embarrassed to admit that this surprised me a little. I had seen his other film stuff, and while it was okay, frankly it didn't require much from him. This was different and better.

Well bowled Mr. Yow.

Is this the film for which Zachariah was written, from PURE? Wasn't David Lynch supposed to direct this film originally?

EDIT: Sorry, LIAR not PURE
