動物人間 ( Animal People) by Takuya Okada is pick for horror manga of the year. It zigs when you think it will zag, and has some truly disgusting and creepy panels. (Evil Dead & Italian horror movie fans will love it!)

Watching Total Recall with a friend. After Sharon Stone’s character’s heel turn, a lady kept shouting “Kill her!” when the character was on screen. When the character finally gets shot, she shouted “ Yeah!” She got on the hate train and didn’t get off till the last stop
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

As long as a government violently oppresses, censors, and even executes its members of the arts and the media for their views and how they express themselves, it is strangling the culture. You can't build a cultural powerhouse on a graveyard.
