A L Katz

A L Katz (Alan to his friends) has been in the film and TV business for over 35 years. In that time, he's written and produced iconic TV series like HBO's "Tales From The Crypt" and Showtime's "The Outer Limits". He's written and produced iconic feature franchises like "Children Of The Corn II" and "Tales From The Crypt Presents Demon Knight". And then there's "Bordello of Blood". After taking two decades off to deal with a deepening depression (Bordello had a little something to do with it), Alan is back! And, boy, has he got a story to tell.
