Sci-fi and horror lost one of its 20th century pioneers yesterday.
Richard Matheson passes

One of my favorite writers of fantasy and sci-fi. His Twilight Zones were among the best on the show. And Somewhere In Time is still one of my favorite romantic films (with a Twilight Zone flavor!).
I also loved his SHOCK short stories. So imaginative.
I got to sit in on a symposium in the early '90s with Matheson and other writers, directors, and actors from the Twilight Zone. I doted on his comments.
RIP, Mr. Matheson.

My life was changed when some beat up used paperbacks of SHOCK!, SCHOCK 2 and SHOCK WAVES fell into my bored little 5th grade hands one day. Marvelous unforgettable twisted little tales that never quite get out of one's head.
RIP Mr. Matheson.
