About the Author
Chris Alexander is a Canadian film journalist, radio personality and music composer. He was a critic and columnist with noted horror entertainment periodical Rue Morgue for five years before joining the ranks of legendary NYC-based genre magazine Fangoria, a publication he and every other oddball kid was obsessed with as a child. He was also the only Canadian critic chosen to box noted “bad filmmaker” Uwe Boll in the “Raging Boll” event in Vancouver, September 2006. He lost brilliantly but not before vomiting a geyser of fake blood at the none-too-amused director. Chris Alexander lives in Toronto with his wife Carrie and their two sons, Jack and Elliot.
