Hey all! Just a quick post to let the lot o' ye know I'm doing alright. I'm currently on the second leg of my Northern tour, having left New York City early Monday morning and writing to you LIVE from Boston, Mass. New York was pretty sweet! In addition to catching up with an old college pal and learning the depressing fates of a number of my classmates (depressing for me, that is, since just about everyone seems to be doing so well and making so much of him/herself), I snagged a ton of films in NYC's Chinatown -- The Twins Effect, Protégé de la Rose Noire, Lavender, The Eye, Midnight Fly, Golden Chicken 2, Sakuya: The Slayer of Demons, Tomie: Forbidden Fruit, and one other film I can't find an IMDb listing for. Not to mention that two thirds of these are DVDs -- as opposed to VCDs -- so that's like a milligram of Viagra for my DVD penis. What a haul! (more...)
