• Fright auteurs speak on the art of horror

  Writer/director/producer William Malone’s Parasomnia is a most unusual, visually enthralling horror film, so it’s fitting that the movie was the centerpiece of an unusual, visually enthralling event benefitting the American Cinematheque, which hosted the event at the Egyptian Theatre, and the Museum of Contemporary Art (Moca) in Los Angeles. The evening was a tribute to the work of the late Polish artist Zdzislaw Beksinski (pronounced Boo-shin-ski), whose paintings inspired much of Malone’s Parasomnia imagery; the film credits Beksinski with “conceptual art.”
  Before Parasomnia (pictured) was screened, Richard Elfman (director of Forbidden Zone, Shrunken Heads and Modern Vampires) moderated a Q&A panel with Malone and fellow horrormakers Wes Craven, Mick Garris, Stuart Gordon and Tobe Hooper in a discussion of the influence of art on their filmmaking, followed by a slide show and discussion of Beksinski’s work. Fango caught up with the filmmakers afterward for some one-on-one insights.

  “It’s based on a phrase in the movie, saying that if you fight the devil 24/7, it’s not enough—you have to fight 25/8,” Craven tells us. “The phrase was in the film, in the dialogue. The original title of the movie was Bug, which is the name of the central character [played by Max Thieriot, pictured]. I was about halfway through writing the script when somebody said, ‘I just read that William Friedkin has a film coming out called Bug.’ So that was that for that title. It’s very punchy and intriguing, but that’s the way the cookie crumbles.”
  Meanwhile, Mick Garris, recently

• Writer talks Gordon and Combs’ Poe presentation Nevermore, etc.
  added by newsBot

  At the recently concluded Fango Weekend of Horrors convention in New York City, writer Dennis Paoli (pictured), a longtime collaborator with director Stuart Gordon, briefly discussed Nevermore, an upcoming Los Angeles stage project based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe that the two have collaborated on, starring their favorite actor Jeffrey Combs. Fango chatted with Paoli afterward to get more details on the impending production, as well as a couple of his and Gordon’s feature projects.
  “After playing Poe in our version of The Black Cat for the second season of Masters Of Horror,” Paoli tells us, “Jeffrey couldn’t get out of the character. So Stuart and I decided to help him live out his fantasy of actually being the author by developing with him a evening in the theater with Edgar Allan Poe—or is it the ghost of Edgar Allan Poe?—doing a reading, as
