While he’s probably most recognized for his contributions to the rock n’ roll rag Powerplay Rock and Metal Magazine and his red-handed writings for HorrorNews.net, UK based indie writer Andrew Hawnt sure has a lot more to offer for fans of the written word. Over the years, his unending fanaticism for fringe escapes has propelled him to establish his own indie publishing outfit, releasing six books (VHSAMB will be his seventh!) ranging from fantastic fiction (Across the Sea of the Mind) to life as a comic book crony (Bagged and Boarded: Life on Planet Geek).

Just about a year ago now, Briarwood Entertainment established themselves in the analog revival with their admittedly ambitious yet utterly exciting book box VHS release of Johnny Dickie’s indie anthology messterpiece SLAUGHTER TALES, successfully wowing tapeheads with a first in the new VHS era. The emulation of an MGM Home Video style book box VHS was a feat no other fresh VHS entity had dared before, and perhaps may never dare again, as Briarwood has seemingly carved out that particular slice of video vindication as their signature move. And Briarwood has been staying analog attentive since the release of SLAUGHTER...
