I was going to give today's prize to Charles Deenen, a pioneering and accomplished video game music composer, but, somehow, once I got a look at him, I just couldn’t.


I should, on merit, give it to the Pate brothers, because they’ve had a hand in several highly viewable entertainments, and it’s safe to assume they’ll remain a force to be reckoned with in the decade to come.


But, out of sheer curiosity, I’m going to have to make Today’s Winner Humberto Amador. The IMDb entry for Sickness, his only film, appears to be just about all the internet has to say about him at all. What happened after that, I wonder? I’m intrigued.
