Clearly anyone who uses AI for their work deserves to be fired, but in this case they need to also be prosecuted for negligence and war crimes.

39 years ago today, Dream Warriors premiered & rewired my brain. True scares and wildly inventive kills, plus a sassy monster. And that gothic synch score by Badalamenti is GREAT. The one sheet that hung in my childhood bedroom is now properly framed in my living room. Happy Dream Warriors day!

To be clear, I did (and still do think) that it'd be fun to make a movie about the horrors that a possessed waffle maker could unleash in a diner on Halloween night.

I suppose nonsense is in the eye of the beholder (and also an apt description of my movie).

HAUNTED HOUSE OF PANCAKES now on Tubi!

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

This should be a stage musical.

It’s a tale as old as time. You saw enchanted, sentient objects in Beauty and the Beast, right?

Think Beauty and the Beast meets Evil Dead. And BOTH were made into musicals. So there.

This new B horror classic is Haunted House of Pancakes (2025, Tubi).

I'm game to bring it to the stage.

Frank's "I want" song while he browses Peebay could be a thing of beauty.

Awesome! Life's a roller coaster, but on the whole things have been going pretty good. Fingers crossed, I should have some exciting news about my new movie soon!

Hope things have been good with you.

Shit man, I am so sorry. That is rough. Sometimes the writing has to wait. You'll get back to it when the time's right. In the meantime, give your dog and family some extra love.

Wishing you the best during these trying times.

Damn, that's rough. I've been through the whole brain surgery thing. Awesome you can be there to support him. Wishing your dad the best.

We lost our cat on Friday. Got some potentially bad news about my new movie. Then a broke down car today too.

Hoping for better days ahead for both of us.

I guess that sucky week thing is going around. Hope your week's at least better than mine's been.

Even with rough seas ahead, I know you'll weather the storm.
