Rue Morgue magazine
Rue Morgue magazine is the pre-eminent publication on horror in contemporary culture.
I’ve divided my ongoing contributions – archived as JPEG scans – into three sections: Blu-ray + DVD Reviews, Essays, Interviews, and Soundtrack Reviews. In a few rare cases, articles or interviews were expanded into much longer forms at KQEK.com, and I’ve provided both links to the print and longer online versions.
LATEST: BLU-RAY + DVD REVIEWS | ESSAY | INTERVIEW | SOUNDTRACK REVIEWS
