The equal, but opposite, reason I am a horror devotee to this day. As a young lad, in the late sixties, I walked into the living room where my mother was watching television. On screen, a stage curtain tore and a man swung out - towards the audience - dangling by a noose around his neck! Geezuz!!

Mom turned around, saw me, and screamed, "You can't watch this! Go outside!" I went, but from that moment on was absolutely determined to find out what the heck she'd been watching. And I did. It was Hammer's PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and I've been a horror freak ever since.

Thanks, Mom.
