Splatterpunks in Penthouse
Penthouse magazine, September 1988
It's only a one-page article, but it shows that by the early Fall of 1988, Splatterpunk was getting attention from one of the largest-circulation periodicals in the media. The subjects of this profile by Robert Sabat: Skipp and Spector, Richard Christian Matteson, and David J. Schow, are perfectly happy to bear the splat label and are adamant about replacing 'pedestrian horror' with something '....fast and frenetic and in your face.' Cool !
"Clive Barker's Science Fiction"?!
