Love Rififi. Jules Dassin did it while blacklisted from Hollywood during the Red Scare.

Too busy with purity tests and circular firing squads. How about some unity at least until we fix this shit.

Nothing. Don't fuck with time-travel. This coming from a guy that writes novels about time-travel.

I'm savoring each sunny day now, reminding myself of February: cold, wet, dark at 5pm, everyone's sick, and it's been going on for three months.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is never the movie anyone expects the first time they see it. There has really never been anything like it since it came out in 74.

Such an amazing movie. It's up there in the list of my top 10 Horror and the only ones above it are classic staples I'm practically married to.

Halloween season is Donald Pleasance season. I will be keeping a running tally of every film he pops up in and chews scenery during my yearly Horror binge. #pleasancewatch

Ingramspark reports that my little short-story collection, The Isolationist and Other Stories, is #7 in Horror/Psychological. One part of me says maybe there are only 7 books in the category and thats why, the other part of me is taking it as a win.
