Calling All Horror Festivals and Conventions

If you are interested in having me speak on a panel for your horror festival or convention about my book, horror screenwriting in general, or to get a screening of The Cursed, please contact me by leaving a comment on this post.

Full Moon Tattoo & Horror Festival Report

Although I was there for only 5 hours, I had a blast at the Full Moon Tattoo & Horror Festival. The show’s organizers did a really awesome job of putting it together, although I think they could’ve used just a tad more space for some of the show, especially the tattoo section.

Given the amount of traffic my other post about investing in movies and trying to clear the air about the reality of independent filmmaking these days, I realized there were quite a number of salient points which were not included in the original.
