...archetype of these renegade fright fests is Night of the Living Dead, George Romero's 1968 horror film about ghouls who rise from the grave to devour the living. Made by a bunch of unknowns in Pittsburgh, Pa., for a piddling $114,000, the film has a grainy look, cheesy acting and a preposterous premise. But the characters we root for are eliminated with grisly dispatch, and the claustrophobic tension mounts so ruthlessly that many early filmgoers had to leave the theater midway--in shock. Sequels and imitators notwithstanding, it remains the most terrifying movie ever made...

...know he had sex with girls, and he'd always doodle in his notepad and make these naked women." Jones remembers something odd, though, about Stayner's reaction to women who didn't live in his notepad world. "We'd go swimming up there, pull up and see a bunch of women swimming naked, and I was down that hill pulling my clothes off, and Cary was hanging back.

...promises to do for the portable market what iMac did for the desktop--sell like crazy and leave the rest of the industry playing catch-up. The iBook, available this September, morphs iMac's elegant, curvilinear design and Life Savers colors into an affordable portable (see chart) with a bunch of minor innovations and one major one: AirPort, a PC version of the cordless phone. AirPort's snap-in card and UFO-shaped "base station" (a $400 optional package) allow up to 10 users to swap data and surf the Web wirelessly from a range...

Talk to a bunch of Manhattan hipster kids and broadcast their bizarre observations and anecdotes: it's the stuff of an irritating jeans ad or a surprisingly winsome and funny animated series. "Inspired by" actual interviews with youngsters, the engaging boho characters do, well, nothing much, yet they don't grow dull or self-consciously hip. If the rambling plots and pitch-perfect dialogue remind one of Slacker, they also remind one of little else...

...taxes ?- and yet few, including moderates in their own party, seem to believe that. And Greenspan may have hit upon the reason why: this multi-trillion-dollar surplus, which materialized in the last year as if from thin air, is still just a promise -- a hunch, even -- by a bunch of Washington politicians. And it could disappear just as quickly. "Things are happening which we call technical factors, which is another way of saying we don't have a clue, and they could just as readily go in the other direction," the chairman said. "And, if you start to simulate...
