Another Halloween story. I read this one last night at the Skelebration to end the night. Utterly ridiculous but fun to write, and again, if ya dig it, buy a book! Gee Willikers and the Haunted Penis My name is Gary, or George, or maybe it's Gerry, it's something like that. Whatever. You know, it's… Continue reading Gee Willikers and the Haunted Penis–a story

Then POOF they are gone. Hope you like them, and if you do, check to… Continue reading Lesser Demons – a story
Home Movie – review
Home Movie – review It isn’t a modern notion certainly, but there is something about modern technology which makes home movies seems all the more prevalent than they were in the past. Sure, sure, people made them before but now it’s so much easier to document the life and minutia of the modern family… Continue reading Home Movie – review

Are you ready for a Skelebration? The Halloween season means a lot of things to a lot… Continue reading The Skelebration of Scares
All About Tone
If there is one thing that has been driving me batty of late it's tone, and how many people don't understand how to use it. As I write this I am watching a ridiculous film called Satan's Little Helper which is utterly atrocious but what gets me is that this is supposed to be a… Continue reading All About Tone
New Art and Another Fun Event is Over
The year is winding down and as it does, so do the events I am in. This past weekend I did the second Books and Authors event put on by Leon & Lulu's down in Clawson, Michigan.

To Drive-Ins…
Quick fact - the first horror film I ever saw was Friday the 13th at the drive-in. We're talking 1980 kids, so this is way back when I was six. Now, when I say I 'saw' it I mean that I heard it and saw the end and was freaked the heck out. The second… Continue reading To Drive-Ins…

Service Street Fair 2010
A couple weeks back I was able to take part in this year's Service Street Fair down in Detroit. This is a small fair that takes place just as Fall is beginning down a side street near Detroit's Farmer's Market. The street is home to a lot of artists and indie scene folks and both… Continue reading Service Street Fair 2010

We invite you, neighbor, to join us in the relatively creature… Continue reading The Skelebration of Scares
A Serbian Film – review
A Serbian Film – review Friends, there are some things you see that you can’t un-see. Movies you seek out which you can’t really explain why but which you need to see. For us horror fans there are a lot of movies like that. Horror movies lay on the borderlands of the film genre, ranging… Continue reading A Serbian Film – review
Hatchet II – review
It’s strange, this fascination we have right now with horror of the eighties. See, I lived through that era and have seen a lot of the movies and, for some reason, we really cling to the eighties slasher as an icon. On one hand I can appreciate it because that’s the era that gave… Continue reading Hatchet II – review
