An interview with Vigo, Scourge of Carpathia

Vigo, best known for his work in "Ghostbusters 2," is a terrible thing to behold: 14 feet tall, with the horns of a goat, and flaming like the torch that destroys the darkness. I caught up with him in Gastronomo's, an internet caf in San Jose.

WOMN: Vigo, my readers have been dying to know what you've been up to. You seem to have fallen off the radar!

Vigo: I am Vigo, scourge of Carpathia!

WOMN: And what have you been occupying yourself with in the past few years? After "Ghosbusters 2," you went into seclusion.

V: It would not seem as such to the thousands who have clawed their eyes out at the very sight of my vengeance. Damn you, Ray! May the boils of the wicked forever anoint thine body, Egon! Peter Venckman, Winston, vengeance shall be mine!

WOMN: So what upcoming projects are you looking at?

V: I will burn the tents of the wicked. All of Carpathia shall be barren at the hands of my terrible vengeance, spilling the innards of the crucified onto the tears of the aborted undead!

WOMN: Fascinating.

V: It will be terrible.

WOMN: Much has been said about your vengeance, about your proclivity towards devouring the flesh of the innocent, but what about the personal Vigo? What does Vigo do to unwind?

V: Squash. My racket is as one forged in the very bowels of hell, strung with the hair of the usurers and the false prophets. I play Wednesday evenings at Bally's in Monaco.

WOMN: And your home? I hear you live comfortably.

V: I surround myself in the splendor of ill-gained wealth. The rubies of the temple-dwellers stud my faucets. The cocaine of the slothful powders my feet after I use the shower at Bally's. My home, far below the surface of the earth, is home to legions of the jezebelites of Moab, serving my every need while fighting back tears at the unbearable scorching heat of my home and my very flesh.

WOMN: It's true, you are engulfed in flames. It's very intimidating.

V: Thank you.

WOMN: Is there anything you'd like to say to the readers of "WOMN?"

V: Yes. Bill Murray shall be visited on by a terrible curse at my hands. I found "Groundhog Day" charming, but I can never forgive him for the insolence he showed me with his infernal "Ghost-Busters." I am Vigo, scourge of Carpathia, and I shall not be defied!

WOMN: Thank you. Remember to look for Vigo on the cover of next month's "Details."
