STEPHEN SPIGNESI – Interview

As the old saying goes, ‘things come in three’s”. It’s hard to believe that what is now seven years ago, I had my first interview with author, Stephen Spignesi. In 2018, I had yet another opportunity to interview Stephen. At that time it would be to promote his fifth book entitled, “Stephen King: American Master”, about bestselling author, Stephen King. It was a wonderful book, and I was honored to be included along with several others as a contributor.

STEPHEN TRAMONTANA – Interview

Stephen King has scared us countless times over 40 years, and has done so every way imaginable. However, there are two short stories in particular that are not only frightening, but considered gross. One of those is the short story A VERY TIGHT PLACE. This story is about a man trapped in a porta potty. Director Stephen Tramontana took this story, and has now brought it to the big screen, and I must say his adaptation is great!

JACKIE PEREZ – Interview

One of the joys of doing film reviews, especially Stephen King Dollar Baby films, is the excitement these filmmakers have. Jackie Perez is no exception. She is full of energy and excitement, not only for filmmaking, but for the horror genre as well. This includes the love for the master storyteller himself, Stephen King.

Brookyln Ann – Interview

The horror genre has had its share of great writers, both male and female. With the rise of self publishing, we are now able to enjoy the work of many new independent authors. Brooklyn Ann is one such author. Brooklyn is from Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho, and has an impressive 21 books to her name so far.

Adam Marcus – Interview

When you look back at some of the young and upcoming directors of the very early 1990’s, you’ll see names like Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez, Guillermo del Toro, just to name a few. However there is one more name to add to the list: Adam Marcus. He was born on July 24th of 1968, in Westport Connecticut, and was actually quite young when he began his career.

Selina Sondermann – Interview

It’s amazing that the Stephen King Dollar Baby Program has been around for over 40 years! This program has helped so many up-and-coming filmmakers, not to just take their vision of a Stephen King story and put it on the big screen, but it has also opened many doors for them to bigger projects within the film industry.
