Hi guys, I am very excited as tonight I am going to see a special presentation of BOONDOCK SAINTS, the Director's cut, at my local AMC theater.   As of tomorrow it will be available on DVD. This is a great film and if you have never seen it, rent it! Great Movie!!

I am currently reading CRISSCROSS by F. Paul Wilson, which is another Repairman Jack novel.  This is the 9th or 10th Repairman Jack novel. I highly recommend them, check out THE TOMB the first "Jack" novel.  Or visit his site www.repairmanjack.com.

Also I had an opportunity to attend the 2006 Penguicon in Livonia, Michigan.  I met a lot of great people and had a lot of fun.  On future editions of MIDNIGHT CREATURE FEATURE, you will be seeing interviews with authors, Tobias Buckell, and John Scalzi and with Matt Arnold, the public relations guru.  Look for the interviews in June and July on MIDNIGHT CREATURE FEATURE.  Thanks for all your emails and feedback.

      In the vein of public domain science fiction, I suggest folks go back about 90 years with Edgar Rice Burroughs' "A Princess of Mars." Burroughs is most famous for his "Tarzan" books, but his "Barsoom" series, about a human adventurer on Mars populated by not too helpless maidens, giant, four-armed green men, and other strange creatures, inspired a lot of the places, characters, and action in "Star Wars" as well as many other SF books and movies. You can download the book here:

      or listen to it for free here: http://librivox.org/a-princess-of-mars-by-edgar-rice-burroughs
      or buy a copy at a used book store for a couple of bucks.
      John Favreau ("Elf," "Zathura") is in pre-production of a film version- something fans have been waiting almost a century for. In fact, George Lucas tried to get film rights in the 70s, and when he couldn't, began writing "Star Wars."

      "A Princess of Mars" is a rip-roaring, swash-buckling pulp adventure that you can easily read over a weekend camping or at the beach.

      I got the chance to watch Boondock Saints and I think the movie is "hilarious" in a positive way. While watching the film, I was reminded of Pulp Fiction.
