Twisted Twins Exclusive Interview with Stiff Magazine

STIFF MAGAZINE is a thing of beauty.

That's right, boys and grrls, drink in the awesome.

My friends, STIFF MAGAZINE is wicked awesome. Here's their story...

STIFF MAGAZINE (commonly referred to simply as "StiffMag") is a quarterly horror-themed, alternative culture, modeling and entertainment magazine based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Birthed from the original Graveyard Girls modeling website, and in only its second year of print publication, Stiff Magazine is already internationally distributed throughout 5 continents in both print and digital editions.

Each issue features modeling spreads from their signature Graveyard Girls, features and reviews on films ranging from box-office hits, to underground indie releases, to looks back at retro/classics you may have forgotten about. Each issue also features technology and video game product reviews, music and literary reviews, exclusive interviews and much, much more.

And this quarterly issue has something especially wicked awesome inside...

...an exclusive interview with us Twisted Twins by the outstanding Andrea Albin, a woman truly after our own hearts. And if that's not enough, there's also an exclusive with our favorite badass, Eli Roth. Yes, the man himself and you know you want to hear what he's go tot say. Don't miss out. It is fucking awesome.

You can hit up the official STIFF MAGAZINE SITE right here and you can GET YOURSELF A COPY right here.

We love you, Andrea. Cannot wait to chat again and to meet in the flesh.

Now go grab yourselves a copy! XD

XO,

In The Killing Boxx

Killing Box (noun) - a military maneuver that entails surrounding an enemy on all four sides in order to massacre them; another term for abattoir or slaughter-house.
Independent (adjective) - not influenced or controlled by others in matters of opinion, conduct; not subject to another's authority or jurisdiction; not relying on another or others for aid or support.

Art (noun) - the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance; human effort to imitate, supplement, alter, or counteract the work of nature.

Grim (adjective) - not to be placated or appeased or moved by entreaty; ghastly, shockingly repellent; inspiring horror; black: harshly ironic or sinister; admitting of no appeasement or compromise.

Simply put, we're independent artists; artists whose sensibilities lean toward the grim. Why? Because we're paying attention.

In the KillingBoxx you will find awesome, informative, and witty articles written about horror and indie horrors that don't get talked about as much as they should. It's a rad site of a like-minded artist community. In the KillingBoxx shirt you will fell comfy.

Exclusive Twisted Twins interview with Kotori Magazine!!

Kotori Magazine kicks ass. Plain and simple.

"Sometimes the truly creative hand us a movie whose title packs as much punch as the movie itself, luring us in and giving us not only what title promises, but more coolness to spare. Hot Tub Time Machine, Killer Klowns from Outer Space and Natural Born Killers spring to mind. In 2009 Jen and Sylvia Soska- two Vancouver film school drop-outs- wrote, produced, directed and acted in their own hometown horror-comedy, Dead Hooker in a Trunk, and the fruit of their labors is every bit one of those aforementioned pictures.

They delivered on the title, albeit without the putrefaction we so loved from the dead hooker in the mattress in Robert Rodriguez's "Misbehavers" short (from the anthology Four Rooms), and they yielded a 92-minute hodge-podge of heightened gore, deadpan gags and solid, admirably rough-and-tumble female leads with lines like, 'You think dying's gonna kill me?'" ~ Bob Freville, Kotori Magazine

Not only was Bob Freville, the gore~geously worded writer and associate editor of Kotori, wicked awesome enough to review our beloved baby, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK, he also took the time to have a little chit chat with this dynamic duo. The result? Many an exclusive revealed.

Bloody Best!

Horribly Excited for Horrible Imaginings!

We are complete dorks, but also (and more importantly) are very excited for San Diego's first horror film festival - Horrible Inaginings Film Fest. Read it up here. We talked Hooker, this fest, and so many other great things over at Monster Island Resort Podcast with Miguel Rodriguez! Yes, we were invited back and we sort of watched our language - really fun chat, congratulations on episode 11. Listen it up here, boys and girls.

Thank you for supporting a set of identical nerds. You folks are the best! Talk to you soon.
