Quoted VIII

"No one loves to talk about horror films more than somebody with a Ph.D. in cultural studies at a university. Every horror movie seems to be about penalizing people for values. There’s a certain iconography of the vampire, a certain iconography of the werewolf, the zombie. That seems to be the core audience for slasher films—metalheads and collegiate professors."

- Chuck Klosterman, A.V. Club interview

I knew it had been a long time since I last wrote here, but I was kind of shocked to see it had been over a month. I thought intermittently about writing some different posts, but they sort of faded into the ether as I got dragged into an exhausting fall schedule. My resolution for November is more writing (both academically and here) and I've got some Best of the Decade lists in the works.
