Happy Birthday to me: The Stay

Today is my birthday. I’ve been overwhelmed by all the well-wishes, thanks everyone. I spent a lovely morning with my family opening presents, cards and eating cake!

Last October I was at the London Screenwriter’s Festival participating in a panel discussion on Horror Films. After the panel, at the wrap-up session, organiser Chris Jo...

The old Tooley Street venue, famed for its crumbling, rumbling arches (situated beneath London Bridge railway station) and dank, dripping alcoves is to be dropped in favour of new premises further along the river near to the London Eye.

All Horror, all Hallow~eek!

It’s that time of year again folks. The time when the air turns frigid and the leaves drop their leaves in terror and excitement for the tricks and treats to come. A time for Monster Munch. And Monster Movies.
