Dreams with Sharp Teeth
Erik Nelson 2007 | Next
I had never heard of Harlan Ellison before, and I should have. True, he's confrontational and opinionated, but he's also articulate and insightful. And a lot of what he said made so much sense, I wonder why I hadn't thought of it before. I highly recommend this film! Above all, it's hilarious - don't miss this one!
