Hey folks. Matt Maxwell here. Originally from Southern California (can't bring myself to call it 'SoCal'), now hiding in the Sierra Nevada foothills in northern Cal. Former digital animator/modeler (no big projects to brag about, sorry) turned dad turned comic book writer (the graphic novel/webcomic series
Strangeways is my thing, not that you've heard of it, necessarily.)
Old enough to have seen RE-ANIMATOR, DAY OF THE DEAD and RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD in theatres without having to sneak in. Learned everything I know about horror from betamax tapes and cable TV. Oh, and FAMOUS MONSTERS from the late seventies to the middle eighties. Cronenberg, Carpenter and Romero count among my favorites, at least when they're on. I've seen kinda flat offerings from all three as well.
Happy to be here. I'll get the next round, assuming there's a good scotch in this place.
