About Eric McClanahan
Eric McClanahan is a writer from a small town in SouthEast Texas. Growing up on a steady diet of Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Animaniacs, his brain is little more than sugar cereal now. He's been writing about film since 2018 and has interviewed over 70 creatives, including a "UFO Disclosure Activist." He is the singer for San Diego-based rock band Moosejaw and more of his work can be found on AintitCool.com. He now resides in New Jersey with his wife Meredith and their cat, Bennie. When not writing about film he manages a restaurant but continues to wait for his proverbial ship to come in so that he can focus full time on Nicolas Cage and Bruce Campbell and whatever the heck they're up to at any given moment.
