A Clockwork Zombie: What The Fuck?? Malcolm McDowell at zomBcon?!?

[Hi ho again folks, Shadow here. Another zomBcon goody here in it's uncensored four lettered glory, and once again a blend of website and my copies...]


Malcolm McDowell is considered one of the worlds most easily recognizable cult movie icons as the milk-drinking, Nasdat-slovo speaking, Beethoven loving ultra-violent madman of Stanley Kubrick's film Clockwork Orange

Having played his fair share of lunatics and encountered psychopaths aplenty, he's even seen the post Apocalyptic world more than once. In chaotic future in Class of 1999, he played a Seattle high school principal where robotic teachers are sent in to teach and keep the peace amidst the gangs, the movie was filmed right here in Wallingford and down on the waterfront.
"So, what the fuck does Malcolm McDowell have to do with zombies," you ask?
 
Slandering me best droog are ye? You'll take a right tolchoking upside your gulliver I hear another stinking slanderin slovo out of ye!
 
*ahem*
Plenty, though not a seasoned zombie killer yet, he does have an impressive notch on his belt. He is known and hated by Trekkies around the world - some to the point of death threats - as being the man responsible for killing Captain Kirk in Star Trek Generations. He'll be joining the festivities at ZomBcon International this Halloween weekend at Seattle Center (Friday, October 29th through Sunday October 31st) as a featured guest joining such other popular movie icons like George A. Romero, Bruce Campbell along with many other notable names.

Malcolm will be signing autographs for fans, as well as featured in a number of panels including the outrageous pop culture showdown game show, Family Feud: Trekkies vs Zombies on Sunday afternoon as well as midnight screening of A Clockwork Orange on Friday at SIFF Cinema.
Malcolm Mcdowell is slated to play ace zombie killer Rex Necro in Chris Gabriel's zombie comedy First Platoon alongside John Kassir (voice of the Cryptkeeper from Tales From the Crpyt) and a rumored Sid Haig (Spider Baby, House of 1000 Corpses) First Platoon is expected in theaters sometime mid-next year.

So until the next time my living dead droogs, live long and prosper, drink your milk plus and viddy well, viddy well.
