Hot Shots of the Week: Screaming for Neve

Scream Queen—and Scream Queen—Neve Campbell celebrated a birthday earlier this month. I love when Scream Queens have October birthdays. It’s deliciously perfect isn’t it?

Poor Peter Cushing is barely a match … Continue reading Hot Shots of the Week: Double Trouble →

Go ahead, fiddle with her knobs! Stereos made people very horny in the ‘70s. Thank you to Dan Hill for devising this! CDs … Continue reading The Art of the Ad: Moving in Stereo →
