You should wear a bad review from Fangoria as a badge of honor. The entire magazine is poorly edited, sophomoric fanwank dressed up in a glossy finish. Like Starlog, it's fun to read when you are 7, which is about the age I stopped reading Starlog, as it happens. Otherwise, it is utterly useless. Even its coverage of mainstream, Hollywood horror films -- the only thing Fangoria really gives the time of day -- is pitiful, especially compared to that of Rue Morgue, which is, right now, almost the only genre-entertainment publication worth reading.

And my god, if I were going to criticize your prose, the last complain I would have is that it is static. Jesus Christ on a pogo stick. Static compared to what? The opening chapter of "The Sound and the Fury"?
