On the surface 'Blood On The Screen, Blood On The Page' examines the role of violence in cinema, as well as American society, and how it influenced the writing of outlaw poet Todd Moore. On a deeper level, through poetry and essay, the book examines the role the villain plays in American society and pop culture. Cinematic violence and the outlaw portrayed as "anti-hero" both entertain and horrify us at the same time. Finally, 'Blood On The Screen, Blood On The Page' takes a hard look at the state of small press poetry and asks this question: Is it still impactful or has it lost its edge? As Moore often said, the blood of poetry demands honesty and emotion.
