The prose in So Tender a Killer sucks the breath out of you. Beautiful and bewildering, each line vibrating with peyote energy. Elegant trauma. Chanel and cocaine. Switchblades in utero. No Country for Old Men as conceived by Derek Jarman. True Crime on heroic doses of LSD. What a ride.

FOUR DOORWAYS IN OR NEAR NEW ORLEANS
Here's one review I absolutely love:
“A high-octane collision of trippy, philosophical sci-fi and intense, cosmic Lovecraftian horror. Think of the Marvel show What If... but dial the weirdness up by a factor of ten.”

Tom asked;
"Will we be forgotten? Will no one know who we were?"
I replied:
"Stars that are young now will grow old and dark long before the memory of you passes away. But everything is wiped away in the end. Even me."

Holy hell...I just tried to mail a single paperback to the UK, $30. That was the cheapest. What.

My film from night 24; In the Mouth of Madness. I crack up in this scene; where he wakes up screaming and scares the geritol out of all the old blue-hairs on the bus.

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.

Ed Wood, 1994. Endlessly quotable film and one of my favorites
