The world premiere of Duke Mitchell’s long-unfinished Gone With The Pope took place last night at The Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles – an event that’s been over 30 years in the making since the film was originally shot and nearly 15 years since Grindhouse Releasing’s extensive restoration on it began. Given all the intense […]

The Pulsing Cinema, Revitalized
I just wanted to let everyone know that I did a small upgrade to the website for my long-running podcast The Pulsing Cinema which will allow me to (hopefully) update things and add new shows a little more frequently.
The Month of Love
Ahhhh, February, my birth month. I was born on Valentine’s Day, so you can just celebrate that date in remembrance of my movies instead of all this love shit. Speaking of my films, the weirdo movie website 366movies.com posted reviews for both Frankensteins Bloody Nightmare and Scars of Youth which I quite enjoyed reading. The […]
Another Day, Another Film
I just finished watching Merian C. Cooper’s follow-up to King Kong, his 1935 adaptation of H. Rider Haggard’s “She.” What an excellent, technically-innovative film, practically ahead of it’s time with all the cutting-edge matte and optical work (an RKO specialty at that point) along with some really neat set design and cinematography, including even a […]
The year we make contact!
2010. Wow! The kind of year which cause outbursts of run-on sentences and the cruel abuse of hyphens and ellipses. Damn the grammar police, I’m just happy that 2009 is over so we can shut down the death pool for that year because boy, was that pool getting mighty crowded, and I hate crowded pools […]
Another fun C.O.G. show

My Duke Mitchell Documentary
One of the reasons I wanted to work on the release of Massacre Mafia Style was to do some form of a documentary on Duke Mitchell, which I was able to do with Like Father, Like Son. While I’m still working on everything, check out these excerpts on youtube. I shot the documentary in HD, […]
Working Day and Night…
Working on a DVD release is fun, but I can definitely understand how easy it is to miss a street given how “on point” I need to be everyday in order to stay on schedule and get things done.It’s been massacre-ing my sleep, but it’s going to be worth it. I guarantee it. By the […]
