One of my favourite short stories is Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper," a Gothic tale of a woman who is locked away in an upstairs bedroom of a house her husband has rented for the summer. He forbids her from working while she recuperates from a fictitious ailment but she secretly continues to write and the story is told in a series of first person journal entries that depict the woman's fall into psychosis and eventually, she believes there are women hiding in the patterns of the yellow wallpaper.

Another week, another mystery revealed. This time we learn just who it is behind the rubber mask of that murderous S&M freak plaguing the inhabitants of the Murder House. And it’s…revealed in the first scene.
We start off “six months ago,” right when the Harmons are buying the place. We see Nora Montgomery wandering around, distraught and confused at what’s been done to the house. She doesn’t seem to know she’s a ghost.

Michael Moriarty, who starred in such classic films as Who’ll Stop the Rain and Pale Rider, exiled himself to Canada in 1995, following a nasty confrontation with U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno in a Washington, D.C. hotel room. Moriarty was invited along with network television executives and producers to hear Reno’s views on censorship of TV violence. Law and Order, one of the least violent shows on television, was cited as a major offender. Incensed by Reno's campaign to “forcibly end violence on television and trample on rights of free expression as guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution,” Moriarty quit the series and left the U.S. in protest. He has been a landed immigrant in Canada ever since. Why the fateful encounter with Reno led to a radical (and seemingly overnight) transformation of Moriarty’s...

Juliet Landau has now released her second film (her first was the dark music video Hero) Take Flight – a documentary focusing on actor Gary Oldman making a music video for the Jewish hip hop band 'Chutzpah'. Landau, who has appeared on the Tv series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and in the Tim Burton film Ed Wood, was asked to shoot a ‘making of’ for Oldman, a friend of hers, and the resulting footage became an experience all its own. Over 50 hours of footage, from a cell phone with Pov shots to 3 cameras at once, were cut into this short.
We're happy to have Landau back with us again, discussing Take Flight along with her upcoming films The Yellow Wallpaper and Haunted Echoes...
With complete free reign, Landau pieced together a film that
“Shows a very light, playful, childlike, fluid, free, funny side to Gary... It’s like being inside his head,...

Looking for some live horror theater to get you in the ghoulish mood this Halloween and beyond? New York City’s My Fair Heathen Productions is putting on a chilling double feature starting Halloween weekend: Memoirs Of Madness, a pair of short-story adaptations that delve into the macabre psyches of their main characters.
The first, The Yellow Wallpaper, is based on the Charlotte Perkins Gilman story of the same name. It’s told through the diary entries of a woman, confined to bed rest in her home by her physician husband. With her every move constricted she develops a dark obsession and deep hatred for the wallpaper covering her room. Concluding the show will be the famous Edgar Allan Poe tale of guilt and madness, The Tell-tale Heart. For those unfamiliar (and shame on you!), the story centers on an unnamed narrator whose supposed sanity unravels after he murders an...
