1. How long have you been acting?
Too long..but not long enough.
2. What do you look for in a role?
Roles that I can play well. As well as ones that are a
challenge. But not much of a challenge..as I don't
want to work too hard.
3. How did you come to start working with Jim
Haggerty?
An actor friend of mine injured himself and could not
do Grave Danger so he suggested yours truly.
4. Your first film with Jim and Yellow Ape Productions,
"Grave Danger" has gotten some really good reviews,
and you have personally gotten some great notices.
Were you pleased with how the film turned out?
Yes very much so. Jim did a great job with what he had to work with as far as funding and
equipment etc.
5. Your character, Jeff Jones, is really the kind of character that an
audience loves to hate. He's a creep, bnut he's also fun to watch.
What inspirations did you draw on for the character?
Jackie Gleason's Ralph Kramden..sort of. Also there have been
people in my life who turn me into a Jeff Jones!!
6. From playing such an unlikeable lout, you went on to play the hero
in the forthcoming "Witchmaster General," what was that like?
That is probably my best role on film to date and that includes my part
on The Sopranos. And I thank Jim for casting me in that part.
7. What was it like playing opposite rock star Phil Lewis from L.A. Guns?
Phil was a joy to work with. He was so cool. And very good in that role
Phil was a true asset to the casting of the film.
8. What are some of your best memories of shooting "Witchmaster
General"?
Doing a love scene "kissing" with former playboy playmate Colleen
Marie lol. I just wish I was not having the personnel problems I was
having midway through at the time I was working on this project. If
not for that I would of been having a better time than I did.
9. Have you enjoyed working with Jim and Yellow Ape Productions?
Yes very much so. Looking back..I would do it again. The final
result is what counts. And the final result is one to be proud of.
10. What's up next for Vic Martino? Where can your fans see you
next?
What fans? Unless you mean creditors! With my past "and
present" I should be keeping a low profile but I am too much of a
ham! Seriously..I just want to be a working actor. If Jim should move on to becoming a mainstream
film maker I just hope he remembers me. Good luck to all from the cast. My best to all. Especially
yours truly lol.
