Lansdale : I usually work five days a week, three hours in the morning in my study. But no, I don’t isolate myself, and if I have the urge to work …

Since he burst on the scene with the wildly imaginative 1993 stop-motion animated feature The Nightmare Before Christmas, California Institute of the Arts graduate Henry Selick has been one of Hollywood’s most innovative filmmakers. After his stop-motion followup to Nightmare, the well-received 1996 film James and the Giant Peach, Selick directed the partially live-action film Monkeybone in 2001. Now, the long-in-the works …

Greetings Earthling, “Take me to your leader”. These words have been muttered in many a sci-fi picture. Hollywood and many of its movers and shakers have taken a fancy to the UFO pop culture machine.

The first two days of the shoot were unusual as we had power and a bathroom to use. Not having to the face the Johnny-on-the-spot or Jenny-on-the-job the first few days made everything seem like it was going to be a comfortable, happy shoot. The location was a warehouse that has been made into a hall for concerts, and has an …

From a point somewhere around Thanksgiving last year I have been working on SLIME CITY MASSACRE. I had met Greg Lamberson a few years before that, but I really didn’t know that much about him other than he had made some horror movies while in New York City and he was a writer. I think the only reason I knew of …

You play Old Lady Blume in the upcoming movie “ Grim Fairy Tale “. I’m reading that this movie has such famous fairy tale characters as Goldilocks, Little Red Riding Hood, and Big Bad Wolf but it also has Lloyde Kaufman as a Pimp. I think that speaks volumes but I’d like to hear in your own words, what’s this movie …

Dragon Con. Those words ring out through the world of geek fandom like an innocent but determined war cry.

Oh hey there Wizards, Goblins, and Damsels Even though I am a lifelong lover of all things con-worthy, I am very new to the whole “fest” and “con” thing. Till now I’ve elected to geek out in the privacy of my own home. Hard to say why really given I live for this stuff. Part of it is that for some bizarre reason …
