Mark Polonia
When one thinks of gore-bound, yet creative Short-On- Video films of the 1980’s & 1990’s- the first two names that come to mind are Mark and John Polonia. During the 80's/90's these Wellsboro, Pennsylvania twins created a selection of low-budget classics such as Splatter Farm, Feeders, Church Of The Dammed, Hallucinations & How to Slay a Vampire. The pair carried on making films into the mid- 2000’s- then in 2008 John sadly passed away at the too-young age of thirty-nine. Since then Mark has carried on creating work- with to date sixty-two directing credits to his name, along with thirty-seven acting & sixty-five editing credits to his name. Mark kindly agreed to give us an email interview- discussing the classic SOV films, as well as later his more recent work.
Danny Hyde
Last year, shortly after the vinyl release of Contemplating Nothingness, the critically acclaimed third album from Electric Sewer Age. I was lucky enough to chat with musician/producer and general all-round sonic wizard Danny Hyde about his amazing career in music. We discussed his special working relationship with Peter ‘Sleazy’ Christopherson and his part in the amazing body of work Peter and Jhonn Balance (Coil) left behind when they passed. We also talked about Trent Reznor, the future, retirement, motorcycle accidents and Armenian Dudek players among other things.
