From Bond baddie Scaramanga in THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN to Count Dracula and the wizard Saruman in LORD OF THE RINGS, Christopher Lee's remarkable career has delighted and terrified fans young and old alike. But his life has proved just as strange as his films. Lee's family was descended from papal nobility, and an unusual home life was counterbalanced by his conventionally English education, as public school was followed by the RAF and dramatic wartime experiences. After the war Lee entered the bizarre world of British films, and his success in Hammer's THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN proved to be the start of decades of cinematic triumphs ranging from Sherlock Holmes to THE WICKER MAN and SLEEPY HOLLOW. Recounted with Lee's characteristic self-deprecating wit and hilarious anecdotes, LORD OF MISRULE narrates the astonishing career of the man the GUARDIAN describes as simply 'the coolest actor on the planet'.

Bewitch me with your eyes of fire,
Let me sink into the glow.
My body burns with deep desire,
Please never let me go.


I come to you so willing,
My heart and soul are yours.
This love is so fulfilling,
See how my spirit soars.


Turn me not away love,
For with you I belong.
The feeling comes from deep within,
So never declare it wrong.


My place is by your side dear,
Whatever it may take.
Our destiny that is so clear,
You cannot now forsake.


Give to me your savage kiss.

October 10, 1996 (Peter Gilstrap / Phoenix New Times) - It takes a certain brand of optimism and foresight to make a small-market concept work, a certain drive and, of course, the essential ability to recognize a need and fill it. Before a savvy, upward mover even begins to address such concepts as outsourcing, retrenchment and severe lower-pricing to shed high-cost capacity, he must be able to pick the right product at the right moment. Such a man is Rod Jakubik. His product is fangs.

What happens when theres a war?
Death and Malice is what comes to mind;
What is the point of war?....Order?
How do you bring about order with chaos?
In war there are casualties, heroes, and civilians;
But when the war is in your backyard
no one is safe and there are no heroes;
If the war is in your backyard there
is nothing 'cept casualties and despair.
