About Me

My name's Andrew. Just like my profile name. Clever, huh? I'm just your average geek/aspiring filmmaker living in the Hollywood area. Aside from my work as an editor, I'm also known in the horror biz for my rants over at Dread Central.

My Interests


Cult cinema, film criticism, reading, writing, cooking, sex, sake, bondage, absinthe, video games, chocolate, traveling, In-n-Out burger, exploring new places, watching drunks do karaoke, lusting after Asia Argento, and humping the proverbial leg of Japanese pop culture.
