Chuck Palahniuk in DC

Wednesday, June 1, 2005

Fight Club author Chuck Palahniuk came to National Press Club in DC to do a free reading from his new book, Haunted.

He was excellent. He told some great stories beforehand, which were classic Palahniuk - disturbing yet humorous - very dark humor, like Fight Club, which is probably my favorite movie.

Here's some great movie information he gave us about his other great books:

Choke - being made into a movie.

Survivor - being made into a movie - same team that did Constantine (this is my favorite of his books so far).

Diary - being made into a movie - and "the script is darker than the book," according to Palahniuk.

Lullaby - in the works, but he can't say more.

Invisible Monsters - no news, but it has been optioned. (This was his first book and was originally turned down by his publisher as "too dark" - to which he wrote Fight Club to disturb his publisher even further!)

Haunted - a movie by the team who did Six Feet Under for HBO. Haunted is his newest book.

And finally...

It is true, he is very happily contributing to Fight Club: The Musical.

Dad - did you get tickets yet?

Depends on the leads, and who writes the score and the lyrics. (Wonder how they'll re-do the fights, performance after performance - 8 shows a week.)

Someone up there needs to know a lot more about something called "Shutter Speed"
