I can only survive this insanity through the lens of my own characters. Prepare for more pun-filled screeds staring a talking wolf. (Art by Andrew Harmon)

2/ With @amylynnbestpa.bsky.social I run Happy Cloud Media, LLC, selling our movies and our digest, Exploitation Nation. We’ve been around for about 20 years. Hi.

Okee doke, gonna do a new intro. I’m Mike Watt, filmmaker, author, editor. My latest books include THE MOSTLY TRUE STORY OF RUDABAUGH AND WEBB (historical fiction) and William Richert’s THE RIVER PHOENIX LETTERS.

I rage over in Threads so I intend this account to be happier.

I reached out to my artist friend Andy Harmon to whip up a couple of sketches of my RUNE characters. I couldn’t love these more.

I thought the cat meeting the Roomba would be more dramatic.

In light of recent news, we thought it best to change the cover.

The latest issue of EXPLOITATION NATION is a special issue celebrating the life of our late friend Director William Richert. Includes a never published interview where Bill talks about River Phoenix and their friendship.

But anyway, here’s a picture of my dog War Machine with his pumpkin.
