Slasher Movie Franchises, James Dean, LOST
- Eric takes his fandom seriously; for example, he's made a pilgrimage multiple times to James Dean's Indiana hometown in order to write about their yearly James Dean festival.
- One October, Eric watched and reviewed 31 horror films in 31 days, but the 25 made-for-TV Christmas movies he watched and reviewed in 25 days that December were way scarier.
- He's a Rotten Tomatoes-approved film critic.
Experience
In addition to writing online about film and television since high school, Eric has also been on the other side of the industry; he has experience in publicity and casting. After launching Medium publication "Everything's Interesting" in 2015, Eric moved from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles in 2019 to write about entertainment full time. He's since contributed essays and reviews to such outlets as Bright Wall / Dark Room, The Spool, The Queer Review, Gayly Dreadful, Certified Forgotten, and more. He joined Static Media in 2021, and for both Nicki Swift and /Film, he's been grateful to indulge in writing about various pop culture obsessions, from Florence Pugh, "Vanderpump Rules," and "Community" to "BoJack Horseman" and the filmography of Paul Newman.
