  • Interview: Things I’ve Learned From Matt Cohen

    This is a repost of an interview I posted a few years back. Sadly, the original post vanished! So here it is again. -=-=-=- For several years, I was fortunate enough to interview Matt Cohen at Creation’s Salute to Supernatural Convention in Vancouver.  It’s not always easy to get an interview with past cast members but…

    Blog Tour || Love Bites: Favourite Vampire Stories by Mark A. Latham

    Love Bites: Favourite Vampire Stories Mark A Latham It’s no secret that The Iscariot Sanction introduces vampires – or the dreaded ‘wampyr’ – to the mythos of the Apollonian Casefiles. Wait… is it a secret? Maybe it is. Not any more! Like many people who’re into the strange and macabre side of fiction, I’ve read…

    Mike Carpenter – Stunts, Doubling and Acting

    I first met Mike Carpenter at a tiny gas station in the middle of nowhere.  Okay, slight exaggeration.  I was about 20 minutes from Kamloops and as I drove down the secondary highway I looked over and the Impala was parked at the side of the road. That is a vehicle you recognize when you see…

    Interview: Ellen Woglum in “Hated”

    I’ve made no secret of that fact that I love “Hated”. It’s a great film; it combines two of my favorite things – a damn good story and music. But there’s something else that is pretty great about “Hated”; it centers on the story of a woman. Now, more than ever, a film like this…

    Author, Kim Newman talks “Dracula Cha Cha Cha”

    If you’re a fan of Dracula novels then Kim Newman’s name will sound very familiar. He’s written a marvelous series of books that are alternate histories and weave their way through real events and fictional ones. The first book, “Anno Dracula” was about the main characters’ involvement with count Dracula in the 1880s when he…

  • Actor Matt Cohen: Boxing, Being Positive and Toast

    Actor Matt Cohen: Boxing, Being Positive and Toast

    One of the things I always look forward to at “Supernatural” conventions is speaking with Matt Cohen. He was great on “Supernatural” as Young John Winchester but beyond that; he is a really great guy. Matt always seems to be the one who takes a moment to say “hi” to a fan who looks shy.…

  • Kim Rhodes: I Just Have Me

    Kim Rhodes: I Just Have Me Kim Rhodes was the first guest to appear onstage at the “Salute to Supernatural” Creation Convention this past weekend in Vancouver. It’s a tough spot, opening the convention, it’s tougher when you’re one of the handful of female actors who get invited. The thing about Kim Rhodes though, is that…

As soon as I knocked on…

  • A Final Chat with Guy Bee

    The final installment of my interview with Guy Bee focuses on his style behind-the-scenes. I was a pleasure to learn a bit about the “other side” of the camera from Guy.
