Factory Flicks: The Complete First Season

This originally appeared on Film Threat 11/30/10.  You can read my review of the DVD here.  It's not every day I review films for kids, so this was out of my ordinary realm of reviews.

Stereomud and Sepultura Reviews

Reviews for Stereomud's Perfect Self and Sepultura's Nation appeared on page 19 of issue 45 of Tattoo Savage, cover date March 2002.  I would reprint them here, but I sold all rights to them, and I don't feel like being sued.

"Stereomud needs to alienate the mainstream listeners it claims to hold in contempt."

"Nation exceeds all expectations and leaves listeners salivating for more."

Excess Hollywood: Jack Daniels, Art Auctions, Forty Grand Therapy and the Death of Art

4/21/05 saw this "Excess Hollywood" published on Film Threat.  You can read this piece that is critical of Metallica here.  I remember people not being very happy about it when it first appeared.  I still stand by the piece.

Excess Hollywood: Rehash City

On 4/28/05 Film Threat published this "Excess Hollywood" column I wrote.  You can read it here.  It deals with the problems of movies not based on original source material.

Excess Hollywood: Do Studio Executives Dream of Electronic Sheep?

5/12/2005.  This was a short interview I did with author Alan Dean Foster on Film Threat.  You can read it here.  I originally contacted him about his involvement in the Ultraman movie, and from there it became something more.

Excess Hollywood: Dario

Originally published 11/10/05 on Film Threat, this "Excess Hollywood" column is on Dario Argento.  You can read the original piece here.  My regular readers know how strongly I feel about Argento.  I seem to recall having a tough time getting Film Threat to take this one, and I think it was because the publisher at the time (who shall forever remain nameless) thought Argento's name wouldn't attract readers.  That's an opinion I still consider misguided at best.

Excess Hollywood: Kidnapping Crowe

This appeared on Film Threat 5/5/2005.  This "Excess Hollywood" column was all about Al-Qaida targeting Russell Crowe for a kidnapping.

Excess Hollywood: Opens This Friday at a Church Near You

This piece appeared on Film Threat 11/18/05.  The "Excess Hollywood" column deals with Left Behind: World at War and how it opened in churches instead of the theatre.

Excess Hollywood: The Cancers That Are Trekkies

Originally published 11/24/05, this "Excess Hollywood" column on Film Threat came across meaner than I meant it to, in all honesty.  I'm actually surprised the editor at the time let it run.  You can read it here.

Nothing Men Novel on Kindle

It is finally available for all you Kindle readers.  My horror novel Nothing Men, set in the Trinity Alps of Northern California is about what happens to one family on a summer vacation when they happen to stumble into a village where the most unimaginable is taking place.  Not for the easily offended or weak of heart.

Excess Hollywood: Citizen Lame

12/1/05.  That's when Film Threat published this "Excess Hollywood" piece where I took on the grandfather of all films, Citizen Kane.  You can read it here.  I stick by this piece and my criticism of the film.

Review of "The Kingdom of Survival" and Interview With Its Director

Excess Hollywood: Life is Sith

Some Tattoo Savage Pieces

Issue 33 of Tattoo Savage from 3/2000 had so many pieces from me that the profile I wrote had to be published under the moniker "Doug Chaos."  In this issue were reviews of Dangerous Toys, Society 1 and the movie Terror Firmer.  The profile was for Andrea Steggal.

I was going to scan the writing from the issue, but I don't like the way the scans come out, and I could find no place online where these reviews have been posted.
