The chief enemy of creativity is good taste.

About Me

Writer. Musician. Documentarian. All-around nerd. Lately most of my creative energies have been directed towards Digital Roadshow Productions, the DVD supplemental company I founded to ensure the history behind forgotten favorites didn’t get… um, forgotten. After assisting on over a hundred releases in various capacities (from writer to archive researcher to broker on everything from THE CANDY SNATCHERS to ZOMBIE to THE HOUSE ON STRAW HILL) actual production seemed the logical progression. I’ve since produced and/or directed segments for companies as varied as Grindhouse Releasing, Mondo Macabro, BCI Eclipse, Image Entertainment and New Line Cinema; upcoming projects include CALIGULA for Penthouse Media Group and CHAINED HEAT for Panik House Entertainment, with several other goodies waiting in the wings.
