PS-family eJournal of our Mother’s Spinal Surgery and Recovery (via various social network media tools)

“Our Mother’s doctor said, although it may take 6 months to 1 year, he expects she will make a full recovery, be better than ever and this will probably even help with her Parkinsons Disease.

Watch it in 720p HD and click on the Red speech balloon to access my long belated “director’s commentary” because, among many other lamentable things, I was purposely excluded by the producers of the film I directed in 2004 from participating in the cast & crew recording session of the DVD Audio commentary … READ/WATCH/HEAR {more} …

This is not only the start of the 5th weekend of October, tonight launches five days of potential fun to enjoy parties and holiday horror screenings. As a purveyor of thrilling and sometimes horrifying films & stories (particularly a B-Cult uber-low budget vampire horror film, a yet-to-be-made co-ed witch film, and an upcoming vampire & witches film/book project), over the years i have assembled my own personal and small collection of really good horror/thriller films.
