We kick off #New-woirvember 2 with an interview with one of the coolest people we have ever met, writer/director Eric Blakeney, who wrote for New World Television's series Crime Story (produced by Michael Mann) as well as the TV movie GENERATION X, the first live-action adaptation of the X-Men from Marvel Comics. Eric takes us through his career, which included stints on the TV series Wiseguy, writing and then running 21 Jump Street, creating the character and spin-off Booker, and writing and directing his own feature, 2000's GUN SHY, starring Liam Neeson and Sandra Bullock.

We continue with #VIDtober 2, where we explore the Canadian movies released by New World Video with an important Canadian film: 1967's PLAYGIRL KILLER! The first Canadian horror movie made in color shares a good amount of DNA with Herschel Gordon Lewis' BLOOD FEAST and TWO THOUSAND MANIACS! and also doesn't share some DNA too! Most prominently is actor Bill Kerwin, who starred in both of those films from Lewis but opted out of the third entry in Lewis' "Blood Trilogy" so he could head to Canada and shoot this, a film about a artist who just wants his models to hold their pose without fail for hours on end.
