An Interview with Author D.M. Wozniak
By Tamara Wilhite
I read and reviewed D.M. Wozniak’s science fiction duology The Perihelion Complete Duology several years ago. It may yet prove to be prescient. I had the opportunity to interview him after the contested 2020 Presidential election.
An Interview with Author D. G. Martin
By Tamara Wilhite
There is an entire genre of Santa Slasher movies. It may have started with “Tales From the Crypt: And All Through the House”, though you could say it was Bob Clark’s “Black Christmas.” It led to movies like “Silent Night, Deadly Night” (which even spawned a sequel), “Santa Claws” and at least a dozen others. And apparently, there are books based around the same theme like Hammer and Sleigh: The Rise of the Crimson North.
In Defense of Moviegoing
By Jon Bishop
The moviegoing experience is in danger.
The Walt Disney Company recently announced that it would make streaming its primary focus, if need be. What that means is that its big-budget films, such as its superhero franchises, would go straight to Disney+. And Cineworld, the owner of Regal Cinemas, the second-largest theater chain in the United States, has shuttered its theaters. They’ve been unclear as to whether this is a permanent or temporary thing, but if it is permanent — and with the company’s insolvency talks, it could be, in part — then it’s not hard to imagine other theater companies, like AMC (which has indicated it could run out of money by the end of the year) and National Amusements, either closing or significantly altering their business model.
This would totally alter the movie landscape — and not in a good way.
