Dan Fogler: From Fanboy To Movie Director/ Comic Book Creator


We caught up with Dan Fogler on the second day of The 2010 Big Apple Comic Con because he was unable to make the opening night due to arrival times from LA. I happened to be at the con on a second day just as a fan with my son Mikey, but when I saw Fogler I had to get a few minutes on camera with him for you guys. I have liked Fogler since the first time I saw him as Randy Daytona in Balls of Fury (hysterical... Christopher Walken in a Fu-Manchu outfit...priceless) and continued to make us laugh in Good Luck Chuck and Fanboys. He has a new film project, which he makes his directorial debut, is entitled Hysterical Psycho. I scored a signed copy for a mere 10 bucks (a black and white special edition) at the show. Fogler also chatted with us about the upcoming Moon Lake graphic novel which is based upon the Hysterical Psycho universe. He threw in a signed copy of the preview comic as well as an autographed one sheet poster. Three autographed pieces of merchandise from a very cool actor for 10 bucks... not bad!!! Check out this video where Fogler tells us a bit about Hysterical Psycho, Moon Lake, and being in the Star Wars geek-umentary FanBoys. He is talking to my son Mikey about Empire Strikes Back in the clip...

Be on the lookout for Fogler playing one of the greatest comedians of all time, Sam Kinison, in the upcoming HBO biopic "Brother Sam". Very cool dude, thanks for the interview Dan!!!
