It would­n’t sur­prise us to come across a Japan­ese per­son in Venice. Indeed, giv­en the glob­al touris­tic appeal of the place, we could hard­ly imag­ine a day there with­out a vis­i­tor from the Land of the Ris­ing Sun.

That film, based on King’s first published novel of the same name from 1974, was followed by Tobe Hooper’s take on “Salem’s Lot” in 1979 for television and Stanley Kubrick’s “The Shining” on the big screen just one year later. By 1980, three legendary directors had adapted King’s work, cementing his place in the horror genre, onscreen as well as on the page. And the ’80s and ’90s brought greater variety to King’s cinematic footprint, including adaptations of…

Kiss is one of those bands that there are hundreds upon hundreds of bootlegs. Each year brings us a new batch and 2025 is no different. I was out shopping for Record Store Day Black Friday and discovered three bootlegs at Repo Records. I didn’t have two of them, so I bought the two I didn’t already own. First up is ‘The Rock ‘N Roots of Kiss’. It is obviously, unofficial, and was released by a company called Rockin’ Bear Records.
