Melt the Cerebrae

DANIEL REGINALD LEWIS.

For years he had been known only as Head-Explode Guy because of his iconic death in the cult scifi/horror film Brain Attack. But a convention organizer has finally succeeded where all others failed, tracking down the elusive actor and securing his appearance at this year's Horr-Onto Con, surely to go down as one of the greatest cons in history.

But someone doesn't want Lewis to make that appearance. Someone afraid of what he might expose. Secrets a shadow organization never meant to go public and will go to any length to make certain they stay buried. Will this mysterious actor be able to expose the truth behind Brain Attack, or will he be silenced—again?


BRAIN ATTACK by A.P. Sessler is a story which should be made into a film. This story has the feel of an 80s chiller-thriller, but with the drama of a modern scifi-horror flick. While the originality is mind-blowing (pun intended), there are times where keeping track of the plot gets a bit difficult. There's nothing wrong with the story, I just think the details would work better in a movie.

I've read three stories by this author, and this is my new favorite. In the future, I'd like to see Sessler write stories with more science fiction worked into his horror creations. Anyone who has ever attended a horror and/or scifi convention needs to read this story!

As always,
