*TROMA, LEADER OF UNDERGROUND, GOES DOWN UNDER!*
*Armageddon Expo*, *Australia* and *New Zealand’s *largest fantasy convention, has invited legendary filmmaker Lloyd Kaufman to attend their 2010 *Melbourne* event as a special guest! To celebrate and honor Troma’s 35 years of Movies of the Future, expo organizers have asked Kaufman to conduct his world-renowned *MAKE YOUR OWN DAMN MOVIE!* master classes at the science fiction- and comic-based convention, which runs from October 15 through October 27. “I am honored that Troma is being recognized by this world-class organization,” stated Kaufman, who added that because of the recognition, he has decided to postpone his suicide for another year and may use his extra time to take up didgeridoo lessons. Kaufman’s trans-equatorial honor is concurrent with Australia-based *Jigsaw Entertainment*’s re-launch of the Troma brand in Australia and New Zealand. “This is a tremendous opportunity and we are doing cartwheels as we work towards developing for the first time in our part of the world a true independent home for the many hundreds of Troma movies,” stated *Jamie McKinnon *of Jigsaw, adding “of course, being associated with the legendary Lloyd Kaufman…is very exciting!” Jigsaw, overseen by principal and CEO *Nick Murray*, has acquired a library of 50 Tromasterpieces, allowing it to make such classics as *THE TOXIC AVENGER* and *POULTRYGEIST, NIGHT OF THE CHICKEN DEAD *more readily available to Aussies, Kiwis, and any British criminals left in the Outback! |
