  (DIMP) began with, uhm… a DVD in some dude’s pants. No, really. I kid you not.
Of course, there’s a little more to the story than that. DIMP actually began life as a small community of people who like to rant about movies, DVDs and TV. We congregated on a forum where we found people of like mind and shared our viewpoint with each other in happy harmony. Then one day, our founder (lostwire) had an idea: “Let’s grow this little community of ranters into a huge community of ranters! Our rants are a force of nature! We could rule the world!!” said he, or words to that effect, and thus the wheels were set in motion. Before too long we’d broken off from our original home and flown like a swarm of bees, laden with creative honey, to find a new home on the Web from whence to foist our unique viewpoint on an unsuspecting world. Oh, and at some point along the way lostwire put a DVD in his pants, took a picture of it and made us laugh so hard that we decided to christen our new hive “DVD In My Pants Dot Com” or DIMP, for short.
What does DIMP mean? It means quality reviews, interviews, contests, features, commentary, community and much more. You’re already here so browse around a little!
We think that you’ll find a lot to like.

Thank goodness no one ever told lostwire to stop putting DVDs in his pants, because if they did, DIMP would never have been born. From DIMP corporate headquarters, high above Michigan, in the glistening Pants Plaza building, lostwire oversees a pop cultural empire. When not putting DVDs in his pants, lostwire patrols the city on his vintage Lambretta motorscooter, fighting for truth, justice and the F.A.B. way.

On our forums, we call our editor “Surf Monkey”
… but we're really not sure why, because he is entirely
hairless and is afraid of the water. What we are sure about is that when this commie lovin' bastard isn't doing
all that editing & impenetrable web code type stuff to
keep looking all snazzy and pretty and awesome, he's writing some
of the best damn reviews on the web. Just don't tell him we
said so. He doesn't take compliments well, because he's kind
of old. And grumpy. And he wants you to get off his damn lawn!

How are you supposed to take a guy fascinated
with Italians doing their version of American cop films, obsessed
with anything involving girls kicking all sorts of ass, and
currently barred from being within 100 yards of Milla Jovovich?
Some may say you take him with a grain of salt. We say you
take him with a giant afro wig and a slick pair of shades.
(Don't ask what that's supposed to mean. We're not even sure
ourselves.) Italian cinema? The best of exploitation? And
Milla, Milla, Milla? Look no further than the featured reviews
of Shawn McLoughlin.

According to rumor, staff writer John Felix has a collection of jars. And those
jars are filled with blood. And no one, including John himself,
has any idea where that blood came from. Yet those jars, along
with his season passes to the magical and joyful confines
of Disneyland and his Residents record collection, are the
most important things in his life. And this, dear readers,
sums up the frantically, frighteningly fucked up reviewing
style of John Felix. But don't take our word for it. Click
away and take a peek at his featured reviews.

Cary Christopher is a maverick and he’s not afraid to speak his mind. When Cary reviews a film he doesn’t like, he won’t pull any punches. Luckily, DIMP keeps Cary busy writing about all sorts of things, from the Bugaloos to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and beyond. Cary is a music aficionado, a seasoned cinephile and one of the most entertaining writers on DIMP’s staff. When you dig into one of his pieces you’re in for a heck of a ride, no matter what the subject.

 Gerry Donaghy
Staff Writer

Thinking people would give a shit about his opinions was Gerry Donaghy's first mistake; deciding to share those opinions was his second.
Working under a bare bulb in an unassuming bungalow in Portland, Oregon, he writes with the verve and trenchant wit of somebody who takes himself far too seriously. He is a peerless commentator on subjects as diverse as the French nouvelle vogue, Asian action cinema and the Turkish dwarf porn phenomenon of the 1970's. He’s also a frequently in-demand gadfly on matters related to the book publishing industry.
Gerry's unfulfilled dreams include: wearing a Godzilla costume and stomping on a model replica of Kyoto, meeting Tura Satana, and discovering a copy of the unfinished Jerry Lewis film The Day the Clown Cried.

You may not see his name much in these parts,
but almost everything you see on has Eric's stamp on it. He's our technical wiz, the guy who
keeps us online and ensures our crazy discussion forum is
running smoothly. When he isn't fiddling with code only a
mother can love, he's tackling reviews of trippy 1980s animation,
spaced out music DVDs, experimental cinema and pretty much
anything having to do with Pink Floyd. Ever
cue up Dark Side Of The Moon and The Wizard
Of Oz? Then drop a hit and give Eric's reviews a
read.
