murder? or accidentally committing a? and he told my mom about dexter. you see the show dexter, this is all modeled after dexter. when you take a step back, you see this is a real man who s been murdered. it was darker than anyone knew. holy mackerel! everyone is on the edge of their seat. an underground parking garage. you re watching a violent attack, caught on tape. who is this? what is happening? or did it happen at all? movies, like that one. are by design deceptive. they blur words. but have you noticed, maybe it s all the technical doodads. the digital cameras. the reality pristine editing. some stories have claimed to be true. are not. anybody can manipulate reality, but sometimes what they say is true, isn t. sometimes fiction turns out to be fact. and then there are stories, just a few, in which fact and fiction hughes. and that s where we re going tonight. a twilight zone world. an illusion. and deception. and deceit. follow the howling wind, no

what i love about the show in books is how he was able to explore that darkside. and rationalize that it is okay to kill somebody because this person deserved it in a way. we flirted back and forth and, then i kept asking him. who are you a little? tell me who you are. because i want to see the man behind the mask. finally, rene s facebook friend relented. no, he was not the actor, he admitted. his name was, mark twitchell. once he told me who he was i checked him out. i did a lot of research online. and found out that he was, legitimate. and he was up and coming. and for rene? the would-be filmmaker.
