AFTERWORDS: Thrillers Are Back with Crumb Catcher Director Chris Skotchdopole

Listen, when Producer Pete and I pulled up to the Alamo NYC, we had no idea what the hell a “Crumb Catcher” even was.   The cast, crew and even Larry Fessenden popped in for some fried pickles (which I wish I had ordered). It real…

AFTERWORDS: Beyond the Screen with Visionary Larry Fessenden

Truth be told, Larry Fessenden is one of my heroes. I had to play cool not to let on when we met for the interview. In my eyes, he’s the New York Roger Corman and John Cassavetes rolled into one. He has a living breathing testament to film his…

AFTERWORDS: Cult and Underground Horror Films with Director Victor Bonacore

Vic is a great guy. That's first off. I really truly believe that he has a bright future ahead of him. He remains on the fringe like many other filmmakers that came before him.   What ultimately happens is that most of these directors make a …

AFTERWORDS: Black Christmas (2006)

Look nothing will ever come close to the magic that Bob Clark committed to the screen in 1974’s Black Christmas. (or A Christmas Story for that matter)   Black Christmas 2006 is the type of movie that a 14-year-old version of me wo…

AFTERWORDS: Cursed (2005)

I like Cursed for what it is. What is it? Well it’s a time capsule of 2003. If you were ever curious to visit, this is your opportunity. Cursed is a snapshot of very strange era in film.   It’s the last big Dimension film be…

AFTERWORDS: Alien³ (1992)

R 1992 ‧David Fincher   I still hate Alien³ all these years later. It’s drab, dingy, and largely uninteresting. It’s narrative is still upsetting after all these years. It’s a slap in the face to James Cameron and…

AFTERWORDS: Cruising (1980)

Cruising is a Horror film. Part Giallo, part slasher - it encapsulates the fear of serial killers in the late 70s and early 1980s. There is a stark difference to New York in 1979. It feels harsher and perhaps more savage. Gay men were being systemat…

AFTERWORDS: Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977)

No matter how much things change, history is sure to repeat itself. Exorcist: Believer is receiving a complete backlash of hatred from horror fans. Shockingly, I enjoyed Believer and I think as time passes it will only grow in popularity.Exorcist II…

AFTERWORDS: TIM BURTON'S PLANET OF THE APES (2001)

This is the first time that Tim Burton kinda phones it in. It’s also where he falls off of an amazing winning streak. I’m well aware that he was rushed but what you commit to film is all that matters. The audience who paid 15 bucks for a…
