While Ken Kupstis is a charming, hardworking Catholic boy, his alter-ego K.K. is the horrific combination of Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, MOTORHEAD, Steel Reserve Malt Liquor, Playboy magazine and every horror movie ever made! (Curiously, however, he remains a crime-free upstanding citizen! Take THAT, ya 'violent art inspires violent behavior' Draconians!) Seriously, my shout-outs go to JAMES HERBERT (Britain's TOP DAWG! Sorry Clive!), Stephen King (who isn't influenced by him?), Clive Barker, Skipp & Spector (Don't MAKE me hunt you two down and staple you together!), David Schow, Joe R. Lansdale, Robert McCammon, Edgar Allan Poe, The Bible, Dungeons & Dragons, Blue Oyster Cult, Manowar, Dream Theatre, ETC.!Much THANKS to the creative influences of my father Richard Kupstis, My Aunt Marjorie Minervini, Uncles Joe & Bob for the comedy, Educators Rose Zangari, Elaine Bucci, Richard Raleigh, IDS, the Wesleyan University CCY program, St. Thomas University, John Zarrella & CNN, TERROR ON CHURCH STREET, Improv Now and IMPROS.As for my BACKGROUND, it's CLASSIFIED and I'm damned proud of it...
