COHEN AND TATE coming out on Blu Ray in July from Shout Factory.
My first picture COHEN AND TATE, a hard-boiled crime flick with Roy Scheider and Adam Baldwin, is being released on Blu Ray in a few months. It’s about a little boy who is kidnapped by two hit men driving him back to the mob in Houston. To survive, the kid pits the two killers against each other, using psychological warfare to get them to do what they do best…to each other. The picture is now regarding as a classic modern film noir. Scheider’s iconic performance as a bad guy, an icy but honorable contract killer, is not to be missed. The disk will be loaded with special features including a director commentary, uncut unrated scenes, on camera interviews, tons of behind the scenes and production stills, and script pages. Check it out!

WILD WORK official announcement from Antarctic Press.
“Antarctic Press is proud to announce for the summer of 2013, the publication of the new five-issue comic series WILD WORK, an epic vampire action horror western! And here’s a dazzling look at the 1st issue’s jaw-dropping cover!
In 1888, Professor Abraham Van Helsing pursues Count Dracula into the American West. Wooden stakes and spurs, silver bullets and six-guns, side by side. Bullets fly, hell on earth around every hitching post and enough blood spilled to turn the western desert into a crimson sea. It’s going to be one “Hell-sing” of a ride!
The series is created and written by film director and screenwriter Eric Red, whose films include the legendary modern cult classics THE HITCHER, NEAR DARK, BODY PARTS and 100 FEET and who previously created and wrote the comic series CONTAINMENT for IDW Publishing. The cinematic artwork is by Ben Dunn. the founder of Antarctic Press and a man who has worked for almost every publisher on the planet as well as creating a plethora of titles and characters for his own company. The covers are by John Gallagher, the acclaimed entertainment illustrator working across film, television, video games and comics on such projects as ONCE UPON A TIME, FALLING SKIES and EUREKA and films such as THE GREY and APOLLO 18.”
So saddle-up, oil-up your six-shooter and sharpen your stakes…there’s WILD WORK to be done!”

Jack Ketchum says about the book, “”In our mythos of the Old West, there are bad guys and even badder guys, But Eric Red’s are the biggest, baddest guys of all…”
