The 1960s Fantômas trilogy is out from Eureka on Monday and I very much enjoyed contributing an interview to this release.

Also have a new Blu-ray booklet commission which I’m starting work on today. Spent a couple of days last week researching and collecting facts and quotes, ready to dive in.

Finished the new draft of the first chapter of my wip yesterday. It was Frankensteined from a couple of previous drafts but wrote more connective stuff and a new ending and am happy with it. #writersky #horrorwriters

Slept dreaming of, woke up thinking about the extraordinary What Resembles the Grave but Isn’t by Anne Boyer
what resembles the grave but isn't Always falling into a hole, then saying "ok, this is not your grave, get out of this hole," getting out of the hole which is not the grave, falling into a hole again, saying "ok, this is also not your grave, get out of this hole," getting out of that hole, falling into another one; sometimes falling into a hole within a hole, or many holes within holes, getting out of them one after the other, then falling again, saying "this is not your grave, get out of the hole"; sometimes being pushed, saying "you can not push me into this hole, it is not my grave," and getting out defiantly, then falling into a hole again without any pushing; sometimes falling into a set of holes whose structures are predictable, ideological, and long dug, often falling into this set of structural and impersonal holes; sometimes falling into holes with other people, with other people, saying "this is not our mass grave, get out of this hole," all together getting out of the hole together, hands and legs and arms and human ladders of each other to get out of the hole that is not the mass grave but that will only be gotten out of together; sometimes the willful-falling into a hole which is not the grave because it is easier than not falling into a hole really, but then once in it, realizing it is not the grave, getting out of the hole eventually; sometimes falling into a hole and languishing there for days, weeks, months, years, because while not the grave very difficult, still, to climb out of and you know after this hole there's just another and another; sometimes surveying the landscape of holes and wishing for a high quality final hole; sometimes thinking of who has fallen into holes which are not graves but might be better if they were; sometimes too ardently contemplating the final hole while trying to avoid the provisional ones; sometimes dutifully falling and getting out, with perfect fortitude, saying "look at the skill and spirit with which I rise from…

There’s a parallel universe somewhere where 1980s Metallica did a whole album of instrumentals like ‘Call of Ktulu’ and I need to find it.

Always found this ship interesting, and in fact, about to start a model of it.

Star Trek III destroyed one Enterprise, but gave us a generous helping of new ships (plus a spacedock) to compensate. The Bird of Prey and Excelsior went on to become fan favourites, but one is not so universally loved.

My occasional prod to say I wrote a book of short horror stories, and they're really fucking good (said by other people with inarguably exceptional taste)

Shitty people get what's coming to 'em. But also, cannibalism! Ghost children! Revenge! Grave robbing! You know, the fun stuff.

The cover for a book called A Row of Open Graves (And Nine Other Stories Of A Macabre Persuasion) against a purple background. The cover is an illustration of a torchlight illuminating three open graves with bodies inside them. A spade can also be seen. Cover illustration by Ray Newman. Two quotes from reviews are next to the cover. They are: "If you enjoy quintessentially British ghost stories and weird tales, then do yourself a favour and check out A Row of Open Graves" and "Ten fantastic and very British horror tales to entertain"

A ★★★★★ review of Le Samouraï (1967)
Impeccably cool, unbearably tense. Everything is so concise, the way a whole devastating relationship is basically played out silently. Amazing score, too.
