"Before The Ed Gein Collection, I was consumed by GIRLS. Thanks, Kevin, for adding some rotting CORPSES to my life."- Robert Steven Rhine, Publisher / Deaditor-in-Chief
"If you need corpses, that's what Kevin does. He makes hideous remnants of the deceased. I have to put mine in the closet from time to time to keep the nightmares away."-Gris Grimly
"The Ed Gein collection makes me gag for real. Not like that pussy Coroner job I use to have"
-Gidget Gein (Un PoP Artist and former member of some band called marilyn manson
"The Ed Gein Collection is now on MySpace. What better way to say "I Love you" than with a realistically rotted corpse body eh? Seriously, though, the dude's work is amazing and I'm proud to say I use the Skull Bowl for my popcorn when watching movies."- Rev. Mitcz, Aural Salvation.
"When one thinks of corpses, well at least the prop ones, perhaps one of the greatest creators of the dead is Kevin Klemm of The Ed Gein Collection."- Ghost Droppings.com
"The Ed Gein Collection offers an ominous challenge to anyone who views fine art as fitting into a neat, easily-defined genre. Kevin Klemm has the vision and skill to open up those boundaries and, armed with a shovel and bone saw, he presents the horrific as an eerily beautiful and relevant art form"- Bill Shafer, Owner, Hyaena Gallery
"For the freshest, juiciest corpses, picked right from the grave… I go to Kevin Klemm". –“Evil Paul” Springer
"I've had the pleasure to lounge around with Kevin and his corpses on a few occassions now. Talk about sexy! As an erotica writer and horror columnist I constantly need to be stimulated and Kevin's corpses do the job. I've always had a fascination with things of a morbid nature. And of course, death itself. Kevin's corpses give me satisfaction that I've never experienced before."-Jolene Hui aka Princess Jolene of the Flesh Farm
According to L.A. Talk Radio, I am "The King of Corpses"!
