Biography
As an only child growing up in 1960s-era Invercargill, Chris Knox developed an early interest in movies. Horror and all things B-grade became lifelong interests, even when he was too young to attend certain films in the cinema; "I just had a book full of clippings of the ads that appeared in the Southland Times for the movies! That was my tiny little bit of thrill."
“Shambling amateurism, possibly endearing, definitely homemade and unique.”
— Chris Knox, when asked asked how a good friend would describe his style
