Brilliant stuff!He's got a death sign edited over his face. That does it. I'm going to write an angry-fan letter to Dan Curtis Productions.Joe visits cousin Chris Jennings who lives in a crappy little room, and I think there's something homo-erotic about putting these two characters in such a small space.To be spookily continued</blockquote>
