[QUOTE="talien, post: 4175141, member: 3285"] [b]Thin Jack: Part 2 – Entourage[/b] Randy Kalms met them at the entrance to what looked like a town right out of the Wild West. They were all plywood mockups of the real thing. “Looks convincing, don’t it?” asked Kalms with his trademark devilish smile. He shook Blade’s hand. “Sure does,” said Blade. “I figured what the hell, right? I mean, I can’t publish Yuggoth Cultures, so I think to myself: Randy, how are you going to feed the family? And then I think, why not go back to what I did best? Make movies!” “Horror movies,” said Hammer with a frown. “Yeah. Well, beggars can’t be choosers and all that. And when guys in dark sunglasses follow you around all the time your options are limited, if you know what I mean.” He gave Hammer a meaningful look, as if he were the reason for Kalms’ problem. “I’m leading this mission,” said Blade. “What’s going on?” Kalms led them towards one of the film stages on the other side of the façade of a saloon. “Manuel Padre was a migrant worker who was hired to do manual labor at the site.
