But, my publicity team is much better at this, and they sometimes send me nicely-done annotated lists. Which I’m including here, as, right now, I don’t have time to dig those links out. So, everything here should be clickable. But I can’t guarantee it being visually appealing. And, there may be some doubli…

You won’t find a more hardcore eighties slasher fan than high school senior Jade Daniels. And you won’t find a place less supportive of girls who wear torn t-shirts and too much eyeliner than Proofrock, nestled eight thousand feet up the mountain in Idaho, situated in Pleasant Valley right alongside Indian Lake, home to both Camp Blood — site of a massacre fifty years ago — and Terra Nova, a modern-day American Camelot currently under construction, which is quic…

Walking through his own house at night, a twelve-year-old thinks he sees another person stepping through a doorway. Instead of the people who could be there, his mother or his brother, the figure reminds him of his long-gone father, who died mysteriously before his family left the reservation.

Mongrels takes us on a compelling and fasci
