I'm very happy to announce that I'll have an article featured in issue 332 of
Fangoria magazine. Shortly after the
Projection Booth episode about
Cruising, the editor of
Fangoria, Chris Alexander, approached me to pen a piece about the film. I was eager to do so as I was still steeped in
Cruising from the research and discussion of the film that I'd had with Rob St. Mary and Jeffrey Schwarz. I wouldn't have been able to write the piece without them. I'll post a link when the issue is available. In the meantime, here's everything that will be in the new issue:
