Scenes from the Strike Front: Exorcism at Warner Bros.



It was the most unusual demonstration yet during the four-week old Writers Guild strike. Horror writers gathered Tuesday afternoon at Warner Bros. to perform an exorcism. The goal (tongue-in-cheek, of course)? To rid studio execs of "demons" that were preventing negotiations from settling. (Read all about the event here, at Variety's strike blog).


"The Machinist" scribe Scott Kosar (far right) came up with the idea for Tuesday's exorcism, and led the proceedings.

The Lost Boys 2" writer Hans Rodionoff said he hoped Tuesday's exorcism would "drive some evil spirits out of the studios, so hopefully our neogtiations will go smoother at this point on."


Don't tempt him.

Chant of the day was, indeed, "WE EAT SCABS!"
