THE CRAFT is getting a remake?

Last updated on: May 14, 2015 at 12:24 pm By Peg Aloi

You all remember THE CRAFT, don’t you? That glossy, hip movie that made teenage witchcraft a ubiquitous trend in America. It even had an actual Wiccan as a production adviser (let’s hope the new production team hires a technical consultant for the remake; hey, I’m available and I have experience!). Star Fairuza Balk opened her own occult shop, taking over the ownership of Pan Pipes in Los Angeles in 1995 (been there, got the t-shirt!), following her work in the film (she played... Read more

Last updated on: April 20, 2015 at 12:12 am By Peg Aloi

For those wondering if there is any news regarding pagan musician Kenny Klein’s legal troubles, a new development has caught my attention. This evening I saw a link to a fundraiser online (“Legal Defense Fund Against Abuser”), started by Kenny Klein’s ex-wife Tzipora Katz, for legal fees that may be incurred in the near future. As you may recall, the news of Klein’s arrest for possession of child pornography caused a great deal of shock, anger and controversy in our... Read more

You Call It Easter, We Call It Ostara

Last updated on: April 6, 2015 at 4:47 am By Peg Aloi

Try this sometime with your children or a young niece, nephew or cousin: on the day of the Vernal or Autumnal Equinox, just a few moments before the exact moment of the equinox, go outside with a raw egg. Find a reasonably level place on the sidewalk or driveway. For a few moments just before and just after the equinox, you can balance the egg upright (wider end down) by simply setting it down on the ground. No... Read more

Bruce Sinofsky, co-director of PARADISE LOST films, dead at 58

Last updated on: February 22, 2015 at 3:21 pm By Peg Aloi

I am deeply saddened by the shocking news of the sudden death of Bruce Sinofsky.

His films Brother’s Keeper and Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (both made with his filmmaking partner and best friend Joe Berlinger, who has been posting some wonderful photos in tribute to Bruce on Twitter today) also met with critical and popular acclaim. Bruce and... Read more
