"For a long time, I didn't care if they'd kill me. Most people spend their lives worrying about dying. For a long time, I wished I would die, or I wish somebody would kill me. It's been a long time for me, a long time full of crazy people."

I saw Martin (1977) for the first time, and he immediately set up shop in my brain. He's the sweetest thing, so long as you ignore all the horrible, horrible crimes. But the movie was really great, its one I knew Id like, I just hadn't gotten around to it. Also I have had the pleasure of meeting John Amplas in 2023 for a horror convention.
