The 1970s saw horror up sticks from its traditional setting of crumbling Gothic European mansions and move into a shiny new home in the suburbs and small towns of the US. Films like Halloween, The Fog, The Amityville Horror and Poltergeist brought the supernatural to a setting most viewers, especially Americans, could easily relate to. On the page, Stephen King was doing similar. In his 1975 novel Salem's Lot, a vampire literally relocates to small town New England. While King had several bestsellers and a Brian de Palma adaptation of his debut novel Carrie by that point, it was director Tobe Hooper's 1979 Salem's Lot TV mini-series that really made King a household name, and crucially, it introduced the writer's work to a new fanbase too young to have been able to see Carrie in cinemas. With one of its two central heroes being a monster movie obsessed young boy, it also set the template for '80s movies like The Goonies and The Monster Squad, which of course would later be channelled by Netflix's flagship series Stranger Things.

"Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?"
Even those who don't know very much about visual art are familiar with the Cubist approach to the human body. Pablo Picasso liked to present a person from many angles at once, and compress three-dimensional form into a two-dimensional frame. No matter what step she's on, that nude descending a staircase comes at us all at once. We know we're looking at an individual person, even if it's never clear which of those fields of color represent the present moment and which are afterimages, projections, and vapor trails. Representing human beings like this guarantees that there’ll be distortions: facial features in strange places, unexpected angles, duplicates and odd subtractions, clashes between heads, necks, and torsos, the shuffling of expressions, and the surprise and disquiet that comes when an obviously human figure doesn't look much like a human at all.
Here is a look at shows taking place this week along with our featured listings and a look at some upcoming shows. New Jersey Stage offers previews of concerts throughout the Garden State as well as select shows in New York City and Philadelphia areas
