The Sexy Costas Mandylor

My current obsession is Costas Mandylor. I went a little overboard on the video clips in this ‘The Sexy’ installment because I wanted you to see Costas doing more than just murdering people. I’ve had a crush on him for years, before I even knew his name. He was one of those actors who showed up as the ‘special guest star’ of the week on a lot of shows that I watched. If not for him becoming an integral part of the Saw franchise I would probably still think of him that way, much like a Jason Carter. Carter is an actor I met at an Angel convention in ’05 and was even making the rounds at many of the same shows as Costas in that time period.

Over the summer I took a day off from guiding (shockers, I know) to just chill, cook, swim and watch all of the Saw movies back to back (Thanks Walmart/flea market!). So I’ve pretty much been really into Costas since then. After I went to see Saw 3D (or Saw 7, the Final Chapter, etc) came out I hopped right on Netflix to see what else he’d been in and was rewarded with the hot and racy Delta of Venus. NC-17, i.e. sex scenes with his butt, yum.

I’ve also been watching some of his other movies. It seems he’s made a lot of direct to DVD and made for TV fair, which can be bad/cheesy but also fun to watch. Plus I just discovered this Secret Agent Man show on YouTube last night that apparently had a one season run in the ’90s. This is obviously the best discovery since penicillin/sliced bread as he gets to play a James Bond type who apparently just gets to run around bedding women and then having to run off for important missions.

He has appeared in 3 films and a TV series with Ice-T. I don’t know if they were buddies or managed by the same company or what.

“I’m not gonna sit there in character, life’s too short.”-Costas Mandylor on the making of Saw 3D
He is the only man I have ever seen who still looks hot with his face tore open and then while sewing it up himself (Saw 7). Yes, this is a fact!
