The artist formerly known as the architect H. R. Giger swore off Hollywood after several of his works of art were stolen by "Tinsel Town enfant terribles," as he calls the producers of Dune and Aliens, turning his hand, his airbrush, and, occasionally, his index finger to furniture design, interior design, and prostate massage. The former two endeavors, but not the latter, led to the opening of Giger Gay Bars across Europe and the continental United States of America.
