Timeline
Musician, Actor, Producer, Screenwriter, Activist - Referred to as "The Hardest Working Man in Horror," Reggie Bannister is known world wide for his starring role as the intrepid ice cream vendor-turned hero in the action-horror series, Phantasm I-IV. His career spans over 40 years in television, film and entertainment with a background that includes writing, acting and music. His most recent projects have been Steven King's "One For the Road" (from the Night Shift Anthology), (2011), "Primitive" (2011), "Abolition" (2011), "The Ghastly Love of Johnny X" (2010) (with the late Kevin McCarthy), "Bloody Bloody Bible Camp" (2010), "Walking Distance (2009)," "Small Town Saturday Night" (2009) (with Chris Pine, John Hawkes, and Muse Watson), and "Satan Hates You" (2009) (with Angus Scrimm). Reggie has released six (6) musical albums which include rock, country and folk and is a veteran of stage and television. Since the '60s he's played with such groups as Stone Country and Greenwood County Singers, as well as many greats such as Red Skelton, Robert Goulet, Bing Crosby, Carol Channing, Sonny and Cher, Stevie Wonder, and many more. He continues to write, play, compose and currently promotes his albums, "Naked Truth," and "Fool's Paradise," with promises of compiling an anthology album of earlier works. Reggie is a sponsored musician of Samick Music/Greg Bennett Guitars, Toadworks USA, and CD Baby.
Moved to Crestline, California with wife, Gigi Bannister. [April 2003]
He met the late "George "Buck' Flower' in the set of Wishmaster (1997) and they both became good friends until George passed away in 2004. As a homage, Reggie based his performance as "Gus" in The Final Curtain (2007) (aka Acts of Death) upon him. In Wishmaster (1997), George once asked his wife, 'Gigi Fast Elk Porter' if he had a sense of humor. George then inserted the line "Bald headed baboon" for the shock value. It worked.
Called the "hardest working man in horror," he is a fan favorite of horror conventions. He started going to conventions after feeling that Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994) (when going direct to video) needed more promoting. The release of the movie was delayed for almost a year and, after a very limited theatrical release, it went direct to video.
For most of his life, was an occasional smoker. He didn't smoke at the time of filming Silent Night, Deadly Night 4: Initiation (1990), and had to play a character who was smoking constantly. He tried to convince director Brian Yuzna about his character to switch from cigarettes to eating sunflower seeds, but Yuzna didn't agree. He no longer smokes unless for a character.
He has appeared on every Don Coscarelli movie up to date except for The Beastmaster (1982) and _"Masters of Horror" Incident On and Off a Mountain Road (2005)_.
Following the filming of Phantasm (1979), his day job was as flower delivery for a The Sunnyside Mortuary & Cemetery during two years. The same place some scenes of Phantasm were shot.
He enjoys pictures that are psychologically frustrating for the observer, such as Repulsion (1965), Angel Heart (1987), Fight Club (1999) and Memento (2000).
His favorite movies are The War of the Worlds (1953), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) and National Lampoon's Vacation (1983).
