When I heard that a documentary about Harlan Ellison was to be released, I knew that a copy of it would soon grace my DVD collection.  Entitled “Dreams with Sharp Teeth”, the film is a character piece on a man who is, in my opinion (and his, I’m sure), one of the elite authors of the 21st century. 

I’m anticipating the documentary will be extremely self-serving, but well-deserved at the same time.  Since Ellison is privy to over-the-top hour-long rants,  I expect that this will be full of the elitist, rabid commentary that we are used to from our esteemed writer.  While it may be a bit much for those who are not familiar with his work (or those that don’t enjoy opinionated talks) fans of the author will find this DVD to be a treat.

For some reason assholes (and I say this with the greatest amount of respect and admiration in regard to Mr. Ellison) make the best character pieces, and here you’ve hit the motherload.  Visit www.dreamswithsharpteeth.com for clips and eventual information on the DVD’s release.  For now, here’s a clip to whet your appetite.  Man, I can’t wait for this one.

You will not be disappointed.
