The Halloween 3 by Don Post

Monster Makers: Mikey Rotella
Monster Makers: Mikey Rotella
Jubojitsu Expert Strikesman and sculptor extraordinaire Mikey Rotella is one monster makin’ sonofabitch. Hell, there’s 7 different monsters right behind him, in this photo from last year’s Monsterpalooza.
He’s such a monster makering scumbag that you can even see him on a TV show called “Making Monsters.”
He’s also a damn good friend and a huge fan of the Shindig. A musical prick and horror goofball himself, Mikey’s been instrumental in helping me inflate the playlist from its adequate 5 hour run time to the almost unnecessary 10 hour juggernaut it is today.
Currently, he’s probably singing the Cannibal Holocaust theme as loud as he possibly can while waiting impatiently for the doors to open up at this year’s Monsterpalooza, April 12th, 13th, 14th @ the Burbank Marriott.
SoCal followers, head on down and check out Mikey’s masks and all kinds of art from tons of other incredibly talented horror industry professionals all weekend long. They serve booze!
Tell ‘em Halloween Shindig sent ya and he’ll sing you Dream Warriors absolutely FREE!
I’ll be posting some more photos of Mikey’s work, but you can check out his portfolio here and see even more monsters.
