From Jack Applin:

He notes:

In this scene from The Shining, it’s funny that he would call a blood splatter expert to analyze thousands of gallons of blood. Ha! The mystery is the names. Who is Tom Wilkins? Who is Phil?

Well, I’m Phil, but not THAT Phil, so I’m with him! Anyone??

Perhaps even weirder, when I search for
“Tom wilkins” blood spatter
I get mostly hits for this cartoon–including from the Andertoons site, where it’s filed under “Holiday Cartoons”. What kind of holiday?!?!
