"All I know is, this Lo Pan character comes out of thin air in the middle of a goddamn alley while his buddies are flying around on wires cutting everybody to shreds, and he just stands there waiting for me to drive my truck straight through him with light coming out of his mouth!"

Recently went to Texas Frightmare weekend and had a blast there.

Rue Morgue held a cover competition that was a whole lot of fun so I painted my butt off and made sure to get into this! Competition was tough but I pulled 2nd place and won a whole bunch of cool prizes!

Been painting a lot of Peter Cushing lately. Not likely gonna stop ether. Enjoy!

Ages ago, in time long past, in the mists of legendary, at my first convention, I met Marv Blauvelt. At the time it was both of our first conventions (a Fangoria in Chicago I believe), and neither of us knew what we where doing there or how we where supposed to do it, but we new one thing for sure, and that was we sure liked horror cons!

Over time we both kept in touch and kept going to these until one day I got a call from him wanting to do a one sheet movie poster for his upcoming movie Psycho Street. Now Marv and I LOVE movie posters especially the older ones and Marv, being the guy that he is, wanted to do this one in the classic Hammer Horror style from the 1960s. This film is an anthology, and that style goes extremely well as a classic movie poster so needless to say I jumped at this project and felt that doing this was like coming full circle back to my roots.

Well in any case here it is! For a more in depth interview and a trailer for Lewis (one of the stories in Psycho Street) you can check out these links and or follow Muscle-Wolf Productions on Facebook:

Some movies are a marvel in simplicity. Great for the sheer reason that they work on a primal level. Tobe Hooper's 1981 classic Funhouse is just such a movie. It just works and the creature is great. Some poor elephant man gone wrong. Being brought up by carneys will do that to you every time. Their carneyness will pollute you and turn you into a bloodthirsty, horny monster.
