For anyone who's curious about Jamison Selby's work as an actor, one of his movies will finally be making its way to DVD on December 6. In Puddle Cruiser, he portrays Traci Shannon, a college rugby player. The film's main character tries to win over Shannon's ex-girlfriend.  Selby's role is a supporting one. You can order the movie from Amazon here.

If you'd prefer to see Jamison Selby in a lead role, then I would recommend One Take. The film focuses on his character's journey after mysteriously receiving a photo in the mail of himself with his dead girlfriend. Amazon also has that one here.

I wanted to see a pic of Jamison Selby, so I clicked the 2nd link.

 ^-^ Funny, when they list the actors, they don't list him, but, if you scroll down to read about the pic, it does list Jamison Selby.

Thanks!

There are several web sites, including NetFlix and Amazon, that have the credits for One Take screwed up. They list Karl Giant in the lead role. That's wrong.

Something similar happened with information about David Selby's appearance in Grave Secrets. David Soul is in the film in a supporting role, and he is often misrepresented as being the lead alongside Patty Duke.

And, if you really want to see an example of bad info circulating online, here's how some online retailers have summarized Headless Body in Topless Bar, a movie with an ensemble cast that includes David Selby:

"Jeff has a problem: his best friend Carl has spontaneously decapitated. So what does Joe do but drag his headless friend to their favorite topless bar, sets him in a corner booth, and watch dancing strippers."

NetFlix actually has this summary on the sleeve of the DVD (at least they used to on at least one copy), but the correct information is on their site. Amazon also has an accurate synopsis here.

Amazon still seems to think Joan Bennett starred in the 1991 DS. I'm sure there are plenty more examples of this type of sloppiness.  ::)
