Screamwriter tagged me for answering this set of questions about me and my tastes. It’s a good warm-up to writing my “what made me get into horror” post, which I haven’t gotten around to yet.

ONE (1) earliest film-related memory:
I remember watching Linnea Quigley’s infamous lipstick scene in Night of the Demons, which my mother perhaps irresponsably rented and let me watch. It scared the shit out of me, but was also exciting, both sexually and otherwise, and it probably warped my little mind for life.

TWO (2) favourite lines from movies:
I’m not big on lines, I’m more of a context guy, but probably a couple of those that run a chill down your spine, like:

THREE (3) jobs you’d do if you could not work in the “biz”

FOUR (4) jobs you actually have held outside of the industry

THREE (3) book authors I like

TWO (2) movies you’d like to remake or properties you’d like to adapt

ONE (1) screenwriter you think is underrated
David Cronenberg. In addition to being one of my favourite directors, he actually managed to make amazing adaptations of Naked Lunch and Crash, and great original material, like Dead Ringers.

THREE (3) people I’m tagging to answer this meme next
Sean T. Collins
I apologize for not knowing any more writers online.
