      I always thought Shane Smith looked Giger, as well.

      The interview, very cool. I keep seeing this trend where artists retire to TV. Like Kingsley Amis kept saying Terminator @ was HIS movie, once older, and he kept watching it over and over. Fine movie, BTW, for what it is, but I was a little bit wondering why K Amis went there. M Amis never got it.

      But maybe TV/mainstream movies are like the the new “out to graze” for older artists?

      It makes some sense, but others?

      Jesus, God, what is that fucking shit behind Giger?

      Photobomb from hell. My God.

      Centralia is a short drive over the mountain from here. That interview is good. I never knew of Giger. Was a huge Lovecraft fan in the 70’s (yeah I’m that old), and dug Alien. Never knew the connection, thanks. Have a copy of the “Simon” Necronomicon.

      It’s funny you link these things together. Both have much spook factor.

      A side note: Hippocampus Press is all things Lovecraft and beyond.
