Daniel was the bassist for Skinyard, one of my favorite Seattle rock bands from the halcyon days of the late 20th Century. He released a limited 7-in collected he curated along with co-founder Jack Edino. Pick up a copy at https://czrecords.com/product/skin-yard-skin-yard-select-7x-7-box-set-neon-pink-vinyl/

Wednesday May 13, 2026
Have you ever wanted to take a deep dive into the obscure underbelly of horror, not just the films you read about on Bloody Disgusting or in Rue Morgue. I’m talking about a journey into the darkest recesses the genre has to offer. Enter Mason and his Nightmare Movies YouTube channel that offers a surprisingly academic analysis of obscure found footage, liminal horror and general depravity. Additionally, Mason has completed work on his forthcoming independent horror film A Wicked Crime.

Why am I so obsessed with Event Horizon? Anyone who has been listening to EWB and Necromaniacs has probably noticed that I continually reference this movie. Most recently IDW have wrapped up their Dark Descent, the prequel to the film. With Inferno, the SEQUEL about to drop, Karl Haikara and I have decided to revisit the film and the burgeoning mythology that surrounds it.
