Alexander is a member of the Toronto Film Critics Association and has written for the website ComingSoon.net and The Toronto Star's daily newspaper Metro News. In 2010 he became the editor-in-chief of Fangoria magazine, a position he held until September 2015, when he stepped down in favor of pursuing his directorial and music career. Alexander also stated that he intended to continue to contribute editorial content but that he also intended to focus on Delirium, a Full Moon Features magazine he launched with filmmaker Charles Band. He has previously written for Rue Morgue and also worked as editor for Kiss: Monster, the official magazine of the rock band Kiss. Alexander has also worked as a radio personality for AM 640 on The John Oakley Show from 2004 to 2009 and for Rue Morgue Radio from 2004 to 2007. He has composed music for several horror films and productions such as the radio drama series Fangoria's Dreadtime Stories. In 2006, Alexander participated in the Raging Boll stunt in Vancouver, boxing genre filmmaker Uwe Boll.
In 2017 he co-founded Fantasm Media, a publishing entity devoted to producing licensed magazines spotlighting major names in film and pop culture. The first issue was dedicated to director George A. Romero. The second issue announced was the official KISS poster magazine.
His 2012 film Blood for Irina won the Best Experimental Feature Film award at the 2013 PollyGrind Film Festival.
