If you live in Los Angeles and have plans for this Saturday, May 12th that don’t involve seeing Transit, then you’re going to want to cancel those obviously inferior plans in order to put your butt in a seat for Transit at the Chinese 6 Theatres on Hollywood Boulevard.

Angelinos know that there are innumerable benefits to living in the City of Angels, from consistently perfect weather to excellent food to famous beaches, but a less-remarked-upon perk of residing here is the preponderance of unique screenings of films both new and familiar. This Saturday, IAR Managing Editor and all-around swell guy Jami Philbrick hosts a special screening of Transit at the Chinese.

Transit – starring Jim Caviezel, Diora Baird, Harold Perrineau, Elisabeth Röhm, James Frain, and Sterling Knight – is the latest release from After Dark Action, the subset of After Dark Films devoted to creating original, unabashed action thrillers.

The film’s theatrical release is scheduled for this Friday, May 11th. The special screening takes place at 7:50 pm, where Jami Philbrick will introduce the feature, and following the show, he’ll moderate a Q&A session with director Antonio Negret, as well as stars Diora Baird and Elisabeth Röhm. While Philbrick will discuss the film with those esteemed guests, attendees will also have the opportunity to ask the director and stars their own questions.

The gallery has been updated with a handful of images of Diora attending various events throughout the years. All new albums include DKNY Jeans Presents “Mick Rock Live in L.A.” Exhibit (2005), Reebok Welcomes the Vault (2005) and T-Mobile Unveils the New SIDEKICK LX (2009). Click here to see all of the new additions.

I’ve loaded various photos of Diora into the gallery, including two stunning photoshoots (the GQ one is possibly my all time favorite!) and a bunch of high quality appearance shots from various years.

As you may notice, our gallery layout now matches with the main site. Many thanks to our friend Mycah for her help making it all pretty!

I have updated the gallery with screencaps from the 30 Days of Night: Dark Days and Night of the Demons trailers. Check out the new, kick ass Night of the Demons trailer at Bloody Disgusting. A few words from Diora regarding the trailer:

Due to some of your comments, let me make this clear. In the trailer for, well, lets just call it ‘Film by idiot f*ck heads’……

…I am NOT naked. That is NOT me. Nor do I get naked in the movie. What you see is just a prosthetic piece. In the movie, that is obvious.

And there you have it!

Speaking of the movie, Night of the Demons New York premiere screening will take place Friday, October 15, 2010 at 11:30pm @ Cinema Village, New York.

Diora Baird was drawn to the film because these were “vampires minus the glitter. These vampires are not sexy or hot. You see these vampires you want to run.”

Here’s a report of the 30 Days of Night: Dark Days panel at Comic Con last week, courtesy of ShockTillYouDrop.com. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find any videos or all that many photos from the event but we’ll continue to keep our eyes peeled!

I’m a bit late to the panel as I had to come across SDCC to get here. Much of the cast minus Mia Kirshner and Harold Perrineau are on the panel along with the writer/director Ben Ketal and writer Steve Niles.

Luckily, I didn’t miss much. They show the trailer to Dark Days just as I get in and it looks pretty cool. Lots of vampires. Lots of big, tough characters and so on. How well it will carry to entire film is another story. Overall not too shabby.

They then take Facebook questions? What the hell? The room is standing room only, although there are plenty of seats, and you are taking Facebook questions?

According to AceShowbiz.com, Diora Baird will be present at the San Diego Comic-Con on Friday, July 23, 2010 to promote her upcoming film 30 Days of Night: Dark Days. Read up for further details:

7:30 P.M.-8:30 P.M.: 30 Days of Night: Dark Days (Room 7AB) – Director/co-screenwriter Ben Ketai, graphic novel creator/co-writer Steve Niles, stars Keile Sanchez, Diora Baird, and Rhys Coiro, and producer J. R. Young are on hand for an exclusive sneak peek, panel, and Q&A session.

I’ve added some photos of Diora Baird attending events in 2006, namely the Tenacious D: In the Pick of Destiny Premiere and the 2006 Spike TV Scream Awards. These are actually some of my very favorite Diora events – she looks so cute and happy and I just love her with the dark red hair! Truly gorgeous! Additionally, I added high quality photos of her at the 2008 CineVegas Film Festival – South of Heaven Premiere, which is another beautiful look for our girl.

I’d like to thank Mikaela for her help with the high quality pics!

The gallery has been updated with photos from the events that Lady Baird attended in 2008, namely the My Best Friend’s Girl Premiere and Maxim‘s Hot 100 2008 Party. I especially love the My Best Friend’s Girl Premiere look – Diora looked like a modern day Brigitte Bardot!

More event photos will be up after the holidays. For now, enjoy these!
