He is also a feature writer at sexy UK glossies Classic Rock Magazine and Metal Hammer, and a contributor to Total Film, Sirens of Cinema, Rue Morgue, Screem, who knows what else. Dude gets around. He is happily married to the lovely Stacey Dawn , his living room walls are the same color as the Magic Stick in Detroit, most of his best friends were millionaires for 3 months in, like, 1986, and he is currently working on a screenplay with Teen Beat/Fangoria writer Paul Gaita about a homicidal stripper, a boozy pigfarmer, the archangel Michael, and a Fotomat booth. Texas Terri, Eddie Spaghetti, and Zodiac Mindwarp are all rumored to star. Don't ask him about the Coke Dealer movie, though. That shit fell apart pretty quick. As you might guess a movie called "13 Ways to Deal Coke" would. Here is the only existing footage of his directorial debut.
Sleaze is gonna move to Arizona soon, and live like Peter Fonda. Maybe. Hopefully. Oh yeah, and he has a bunch of tattoos. Some are better than others. He's got a Death Proof tat, if you can believe that, and a Switchblade Sisters one. Two Zodiac Mindwarps. Nobody gets them. But they're still awesome.
Sleazegrinder gets to sleep late whenever he wants, and he has a podcast called My Kick Ass Life, where he gloats about it.
He and Paul are also hard at work on a book about teensploitation movies called, cleverly enough, Boobs! The Book. You might want to check out their Boobs! blog sometime. I know I would.
