Check out FROM BEYOND and the BLACK CAT episode of Masters Of Horror; both have Combs working with Stuart Gordan, the director behind RE-ANIMATOR, and they're excellent. (Combs pays Edgar Allan Poe!) Also, he's pretty good in THE FRIGHTNERS, which is over-stuffed but fun.

I see there's a two-parter about time travel coming up. Should I be concerned?

Re: "man vs. security system," I'm fond of the second season MacGyver episode, "The Human Factor." It's pretty terrible, but I am fond of it.

That's always been my problem with the holodeck; Trek was so eager to introduce it as a way to facilitate a certain kind of storytelling, that no one seemed to bother thinking it through. The episode of TNG when we meet Barclay for the first time, he's busy programming various crew-members into his private fantasy…

I watched an episode of something where it _was_ lupus. It just wasn't House.

Oh man, the last segment of Black Sabbath, "The Drop Of Water," is one of the most terrifying sequences I've ever seen on film.

I love that song—it's catchy, and it's just so weirdly, intensely personal, in a way that seems to say more about how Jackson viewed the world (and the way people viewed him back) than most everything else he wrote.
