(SANTA MONICA – JULY 11, 2013) –Adam Green, acclaimed genre
filmmaker (HATCHET; the upcoming DIGGING UP THE MARROW) and writer, producer and star of
FEARnet’s original TV series HOLLISTON, will
participate in a special panel and autograph signing at Comic-Con, on Thursday,
July 18. The signing will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the autograph
pavilion, with the panel at 8:30 p.m. Joining
Green will be HOLLISTON co-stars Laura Ortiz (THE HILLS HAVE EYES), and Dave Brockie (GWAR frontman Oderus
Urungus), with series director Sean Becker (THE GUILD). The
panel will be moderated by fan favorite Alison Haislip (THE VOICE,
ATTACK OF THE SHOW). As an added bonus,
Green and Brockie will be recording an episode of The Movie Crypt podcast live
at the Geek Nation booth on the main convention floor from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
that same day. A HOLLISTON Season 2 poster signing
will occur at the booth immediately following the podcast.
The brainchild of lifelong
genre fan-turned-filmmaker Adam Green, HOLLISTON is an
irreverent take on the traditional multi-camera situational comedy, aimed at
lovers of true horror, sci-fi and pop culture. The series is currently in the
middle of its second season—which premiered on June 4—filled with even more
heartfelt hilarity and outrageous storylines, and featuring episodes inspired
by J-Horror and Found Footage films, an animated episode, and a multitude of
guest appearances from genre icons such as Sid Haig, Bill Moseley, Kane Hodder,
Derek Mears, Danielle Harris and Bailee Madison. HOLLISTON currently airs Tuesdays on FEARnet, at 10
p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
As
a special event for fans who attend the panel, the group will unveil the world
premiere of series character Lance Rockett’s (Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider)
first music video in its entirety. Subsequently, fans can get a
behind-the-scenes look at the music video exclusively on FEARnet, on Friday,
August 2. The music video will run again during the HOLLISTON
marathon on Monday, August 5, with a portion of the video debuting in the
Season 2 finale on Tuesday, August 6. The original song, itself, “Love It Down
Your Throat,” will be made available for purchase on iTunes right after the
season finale airs.
“It feels great to be coming
back to Comic-Con with HOLLISTON,” Green said. “The show was all but
created for the Comic-Con crowd, mixing horror, Sci Fi, heavy metal and pop
culture in a classic sitcom format that was always for ‘them’ and never for
‘us’. It’s incredible to see that the show still resonates so strongly with
legions of geeks, like me."

television production company ArieScope Pictures, which was founded in 1998 by
