Assembling the Team Part 4: Ben Foy

Ben and I met during my brief and his extended stint at Pepperdine University.

Where dreams go to die.

We both made the mistake of studying acting in college and were going nuts as a result. Neither of us were particularly suited to an overly structured environment, particularly where we felt like we were learning so little, so we were both going a little nuts.

Benjamin Foy: Nucking Futs.

We had a class together and quickly realized that we were the only mischievous warlocks in a room full of human beings and started teaming up together. We embarked on a string of destructive outings that were always fun to do, but even more fun to read about in the Public Safety Reports later on.

Later we had a couple of shows on Malibu's public access. One of the strangest was the faux children's show Presto! Magic Show! in which I played a creepy semi-pedophile host and Ben was a vampire who wanted to ruin things...and it made about as little sense as this explanation of it.

You're on your own here.

Ben, of course, had to be in the movie and he's perfect. He's so strange in person that he merely needs to let the camera reflect about 1/10th of it and it's captivating to watch.
