This Guy Is A Credible Threat

Posted by Boy Wonder

Regular Hazzard Ahead readers know our pal James Collins as the ever-smiling songwriter featured in Unzipped Magazine this month. Well, there’s more to James than seemingly endless positive energy and catchy lyrics. He’s an actor, too! Yes, a sentence like that sends shivers down the spines of Angelinos like me. In James’ case, acting is a sideline and thankfully his work is really stunning.

The night Johnny and I met James we spent hours together laughing and telling tales. It came out that James wanted to post a clip of his acting on You Tube so I naturally offered to help. That very night, armed with a video CD he presented to me, I watched the following clip. Imagine my shock at seeing the fun-loving, ever huggable JC spitting out vicious threats through plate glass!

Happy Halloween!

The beginning of the clip with James makes me think we’re watching a “Law & Order” episode as he so convincingly sets a menacing tone, while the end of the clip is quite humorous. What is this! I love it! And James, I wish I were your agent because, boy, I’d keep you busy!

The CBC TV series is called This Is Wonderland and the first of three seasons is available on DVD. There was no fourth season even though the show received many award noms this summer.

Great idea BW!!!! Always thinking!

James is a unique dude. Seeing this clip after having burritos with lime Lagers in Toronto is wild. He’s a good actor and definitely a multi-faceted guy. And every one of them shines.
