Dodd Lives . . .
and not just because of the radiation, but because people keep talking about him, like here. Thanks to Mike Hance for the headsup.
10 from 2010
Couple (of my) lists, one at Dzanc, one at the San Antonio Current. And, yeah, for each, I had to check, make sure Sorority Row hadn’t come out in 2010. Not that it for-sure could have edged close to Machete. But definitely maybe.
Piranha 3D
Of course it’s way after the fact for me to be writing about Piranha 3D, but if I do it later then it’ll even be more after the fact, so . . . Remember when Lou Diamond Phillips was in Bats, way back in 99 or so? An interview he did around then, he kind
Ones That Got Away is Live

It’s 3am, and your interview’s here
Greogry Frye asks me many questions, and I answer and answer and answer, and mostly even don’t make so much stuff up. click here. also, in case you missed the It Came from Del Rio review: here.
Franzen’s Freedom
My review’s up over at, you guessed it, The Cult. And it’s not really a review, either. Jumping off point? Also, I need a cool header like this, below; I’d silkscreen it on a t-shirt, wear it around. You maybe think I’m lying here, too.
It Came from Del Rio review
up now at 3AM Magazine. Review by Gregory Frye, interview soon to be up as well. click here.
In the Mean Time
If only I had a cooler voice, but still, the story’s excellent: Paul Tremblay’s “We Will Never Live in the Castle,” as read by yours sometimes truly. From his new In the Mean Time collection, which I much recommend.
Del Rio review
Richard Thomas does a close read / excellent write up of It Came from Del Rio, over at The Nervous Breakdown.
I Saw SAW.
SAW 3D status-sized review: best installment in the series in a while, now. Story’s tangled, sure, but not AS tangled. 3D’s fun, but not MY BLOODY VALENTINE fun. Gore’s over the top, Rube Goldberg’s working overtime from the grave, Jigsaw’s forever, but, all that aside, I’m finally getting a sense of this franchise: it’s caper
Seventy-Four Horror Movies
So, I saw that Paul Tremblay and Jesse Bullington threw down the seventy-four movie gloves, so I made up a list last Wednesday, then promptly blasted off for Minnesota without posting it, only just now remembered, thanks to Travis Hedge Coke’s list of ten. Also, I really wanted to read their lists, but really didn’t
Fun and Games: Night of the Demons
(Fun and Gore, really) Horror movies, for all their excess and transgression, are every bit as rulebound as the romantic comedy. Maybe even moreso. This Night of the Demons remake is no exception. There’s the big rules that have to be followed, like punishing the stupid: those who think having a Halloween party at the

Fiction Mingle
man, I’ve had people do illustrations for my stuff before, and had people send me CDs of music they’ve made based on my stuff (which rocked), but never audio, like, augmentation like this. also, win a DEMON THEORY.
IT CAME FROM DEL RIO: the cover
Full jacket here tomorrow, hopefully. And, yes, in case you’re wondering, this may, in the complete and total history of book covers, be the coolest. just saying. [ click it for the full size ]
Handling the Undead
Last summer — months after everybody else then as well — I finally hit LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, and was so completely impressed. To say it better: I was so impressed that the movie adaptation seemed pale to me, incomplete, boring. Which isn’t at all to say it wasn’t a wonderful film (I dig
It Came From Del Rio
[ no ISBN yet, Steve, so no purchase point, no cover you can release, what am I supposed to do here, loser? ] –> you can post a thumb of the author photo, yeah? [ yeah, whatever. I’m sure that’s exactly what everybody wants ] –> and, and I’ll kind of do a write-up that’s
Resident Evil: Afterlife
review up here. and, that big, hammer-axe zombie: coolest ever. want to know its whole story. want a movie about it, really.
