in my review, i was trying to get people to maybe check out mike's book, since they might be piqued enough by the reviews and descriptions. since I've been called out now, guess that wont happen.
yeah, i was in it. my friend, mike west,who wrote and directed this movie, has since become a writer. he wrote a terrific little book called "the wide game". i posted a review of the film, and mentioned the book. my hope was that someone would come along, read the reviews, and maybe check out the book. since i would seem a completely impartial viewer, recommending something i liked, that would maybe count for something.
well, another friend decided to call me out, and tell the world, essentially, that i was a friend, not an impartial viewer, thus undermining what little sway my comments may have had at all. since they are now worthless, I've deleted them. sorry mike. i tried.
if you are reading this, do check out the wide game, and by all means, vitis www.bymichaelwest.com. if you are a fan of horror novels, a la stephen kind and what not, you'll at least find a lot of likemided folks there, plus lots of reviews of movies and TV, a lively discussion about "lost", and details on mike's other work, which is starting to appear in horror anthologies and the like.
