Buddy, I think you're on to something here. I have a new wave
noir feature I wrote that's getting released straight to DVD
March 13 called The Pleasure Drivers (directed by Andrzej
Sekula; Pulp Fiction D.P.!) and I told the producers all
along that this is exactly the right format. Combine what's
going on in the internet with the current tech state of D.V.
production and my friends you are scanning into the glowing
screen of the new pulps and I can't wait to see how more
genre writers take adantage of this.
