By Kati Krieger

It was a bright and sunny weekend in late June when the horror started. The quiet Lakeside Chalet sat pristinely against a bright blue, cloud streaked sky, quiet and still. Little did anyone know that in the bowels of that building an abnormal world was churning.

Once inside the chalet a quick stop at the hotel desk led me down a long white hallway that ended at a cross hall. This little area, taken over by the registration table and small souvenir stand didn't seem like much. There were a few volunteers checking people in, giving them their wristbands that allowed admittance to the convention. It wasn't until I saw a zombie walk past me and post a sign on one of the closed doors proclaiming a zombie hunt would take place inside that I started to feel like there was something more going on.

Contamination 2011 The Sequel - Dates & Headliners Announced
Eric Roberts & "The Boondock Saints" Sean Patrick Flanery, Norman Reedus and David Dela Rocco Headline Contamination 2011 – St. Louis' Only Horror, Sci-Fi and Pop Culture Convention – June 24-26, 2011

(**Note that although not included in the press release, Cody Deal of "Almighty Thor" will also be in attendance according to the site**)

St. Louis, MO – November 10, 2010 – Dyer Straits Productions announce the dates and current headliners for Contamination 2011 The Sequel, their highly anticipated follow-up to St. Louis' first horror, sci-fi and pop-culture convention under one roof. The Sheraton Westport Chalet will host the event June 24th – 26th, 2011. Actor Eric Roberts and "The Boondock Saints" Sean Patrick Flanery, Norman Reedus and David Dela Rocco will headline.

Eric Roberts, one of Hollywood's edgier, more intriguing characters, was most recently seen this summer in Sylvester Stallone's action hit "The Expendables." Among his numerous credits, too lengthy to mention, he had a memorable role in Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" as Salvatore Maroni and is probably best known as "Paulie" in "The Pope of Greenwich Village." He has also been a recurring character on popular soap opera "The Young and the Restless" this year.

Cult favorites from "The Boondock Saints" and its sequel have been attracting long lines at conventions this year and will be a highly anticipated addition to the Contamination family for St. Louis fans. Sean Patrick Flanery, one half of the "McManus brothers," can be seen as "Bobby" in the latest in the "Saw" series, "Saw 3D." Appearing in numerous film and television series, Sean is probably best known for his roles in "Powder" and "The Young Indiana Jones" outside of his role as Conor McManus. Norman Reedus, the other half of the "McManus brothers," has a featured role as "Daryl Dixon" in the much buzzed about AMC series "The Walking Dead." "8MM," "Blade II," "The Notorious Bettie Page" and "American Gangster" are just a few of the many films and television projects he has on his resume. David Della Rocco made a name for himself as the unforgettable "Rocco" in "The Boondock Saints." A childhood friend of "The Boondock Saints" writer/director Troy Duffy, he is also a classically trained actor.
