Yeah, I Stand Alone would make for a very dark companion piece. My problem is that I increasingly don't like that really uber nihilistic style of cinema. It's not a judgement on the films themselves (especially I Stand Alone, which I think is very good) just that I can't really enjoy them anymore. I increasingly need a bit of uplift in the movies I watch.
Alongside the article in Sleazoid Express there's a nice article about LHoDES in an early edition of Flesh and Blood, which I think has been reissued in a Flesh and Blood compendium. Although I think it trades largely on the very myths debunked in the Sleazoid piece.
