It's sad that I started this thread, but haven't been here in a while, especially considering how much I've read since my last post. Here's an incomplete list, with quick review:
Stupidest Angel by Christopher Moore. Funny book. A quick read. Definitely more enjoyable if you've read past novels, but still a good read. Night Of The Living Dead meets your town's Nativity Play.
Danse Macabre by Stephen King. Nonfiction. King discusses the horror genre from 1950 through 1980. Interesting and easy-to-read. I read it every October, then discover/rediscover some movie/book/TV show/radio show that's worth my time. Highly recommended.
The Rising by Brian Keene. Zombie Apocalypse. Keene juggles multiple characters and multiple storylines pretty well, but predictability and bad dialogue kill (NPI) what could have been a good novel.
Agitator: The Cinema Of Takashi Miike by Tom Mes. Retrospective/discussion of Miike's films. Dry reading, but interesting. Audition was #11 in Bravo's Top 100 Scariest Movie Moments. I would've liked some more opinion and review (synposis alone bores me). Reads like a college student's term paper.
Spiral by Koji Suzuki. The sequel to Ringu is more science fiction than horror, but it has some really unsettling "scenes". The translation is better here than in Ringu - it's more fluid and reads easier. Good book.
The Complete Bone by Jeff Smith. This has/had a thread dedicated to it somewhere in these boards. A great example of what is so good about comics. Disney fans will like this. Comic fans will like this. Fans of literature will like this. Incredible storytelling!!!
Currently, I'm reading Harlan Ellison's Strange Wine. I won't have to finish it before saying this: Harlan Ellison is one of the best science fiction/fantasy/horror/literature/comedy/nonfiction writers out there. I recommend ANYTHING you can get your hands on! After this, I'll probably grab his script for I, Robot (written in the 70s, deemed unfilmable by the technical standards of the time, and having nothing to do with the Will Smith movie) or re-read his script for the Star Trek episode City On The Edge Of Forever.

MisterJLA: RACKS so hard, he called Jim Rome "Chris Everett." In Him, all porn is possible. He is far above mentions in so-called "blogs." RACK him, lest ye be lost!
