Want to know who the various contributers of the Micro-Shock army are? Well here's more about the Micro-Shock staff than you'll ever want to know:
Chris Seaver:
Born: July 28th 1977
About: Chris is the Co-Creator and Head Writer of Micro-Shock, and is
Creator/writer/director for Low Budget Pictures which has been making independant horror/comedy films for over sixteen years. He created LBP back when he was fourteen years old. A first class Tomfoolerist
Loves Ska music, B-movies, Horror, Crappy shlock, Big
natural boobs, fantasy power metal, His wife and
child, comic books. First got into horror and wanting to make
films when he was 7.
Chris's mind has been warped due to veiwing so much
Horror and off beat comedy growing up. His mother and
Uncles would shove so much B-movie pleasures down his
pantaloons that he couldnt help but scrape it out and
eat it with a smile. Now heading into his 30's nothing
much has changed. He still loves him some sloppy
B-culture and swims around in a pool of erotic socks
and nut dustual dreams from time to time. He also
collects sweet comics and even sweeter toys and movie
memorabilia, and he hopes to one day onw his own gnome
and name it gnorm! Or at least own Marc Singer...cus
Marc Singer in Chris's words is "Fucking pure fantasy
action in the form of a muscular human like GOD". Oh
and he also thinks fellow staffer and friend Mike is
really Peter Billingsly incognito, how rad would that
be? I ask you.

Michael O'May
Reviews from people who have seen Michael O'May:
“I think he has brain damage from all the bad movies he watches” -Mike’s Mother
“Its nice to see that do-nothing stain on the family name is doing something constructive for a change, I still wish his parents had adopted an Asian kid” –Mike’s Grandmother
“Most people with college degrees do more with themselves than hunt down betamax tapes 24-7” – Mike’s roommate
“Nothing says romantic like a guy who sings you Weird Al songs and shows you his collection of “Weng-Weng” films” -Mike’s Girlfriend
“Mike is a shining example of what happens when you watch too many movies with “Slumber Party” or “Massacre” in the title” -Mike’s Therapist
“He’s the only guy I call when one of those 'Whats the movie where the guy fights that thing with the robot arm' questions come up, he’s a walking stack of useless knowledge”-Mike’s Parole Officer
So some would say Mike is the kind of dork that was forged in the fires of hell. The kind of geek that knows what the movie is before the title crawls across the screen. He spends his money on action figures and comics instead of food and clothing, and he constantly talks about the most obscure shit in the world like everyone knows what the hell he’s talking about. Special? Yes.
Early in life Mike decided he would dedicate all his free time to shitty and cult movies and Micro-Shock is the culmination of years and years of dangerous exposure to the best of the worst. His love for cult cinema is matched only by his love of Helen Keller Jokes and midgets. Mike has seen more jive ass, shot on video, grind house, drive in, double feature, 3D, banned by the man, not for the squeamish, XXX, Scatological, Alan Smithy, special edition, German cut, video nasty movies than most men alive and for some reason he’s proud of that.
So grab a seat and let Mike be your tour guide through the taint of cinema.
Rhonda Baughman
She’s hard to describe. Most love her or hate her - either way, she most likely won’t give a shit what you do. Her or her alter ego - Rachelle Williams. Williams, especially - she’s a thundering jolt of lunacy.
Both women are 29, love to write, to act, to travel, play drums - but only one of them is about to finish her doctorate. So fuck it, fear them both, actually.

Bio Pending
Nick Peron:
Born: The same day as Jack Fuckin' Lemmon
About: Nick is the bastardly genius behind Dorkswithoutfaces, which offers a special blend of comedy and disturbing imagry to waste copious amounts of your free time. His website has has caused some infamy around the internet, pissing off Transformers fans, getting booted off Wikipedia, and patronizing the news media. He also contributes his writing as a head writer at Micro-Shock's website, they hired him on because as a Canadian he helps Micro-Shock meet it's employment equity quota. His other contributions to the detitus of the internet is webmaster duty for Low Budget Pictures and Micro-Shock's very own websites. He is also a repository on useless information involving Transformers, plot lines to most of Marvel Comics 1960's storylines, can spot the character Nancy on just about every episode of the classic Degrassi Junior High series, and he is a professional beer drinker. He is currently working on a number of projects that will probably make even more people on the internet not like him.
Favorite Crap: Nick likes all manner of bad movies, the worst the better. When asked why this is he usually responds with "Well, somebody made them to be watched, and I've nominated myself as the one to watch them." While he spends most of his time complaining about how bad he thinks they are he secretly loves them. He also likes comic books a little too much. Once somebody found him stark naked with a copy of "Superman Meets the Quick Bunny" on his junk. He is also an authority on stupid crap on the 80's because he "survived it". As the token Canadian of the group, he also enjoys beer and socialized health care.
