Was lucky enough to get an RSVP to the local VHS showing of Camp Miasma and showed up with Halloween treat bags for all the attendees. Tis the season

I am now seated for a first time watch of The House with the Laughing Windows. Wondering if they’ll do practical or CGI to make the windows laugh. Will report back

I do love a lot of abrasive, transgressive, disturbing shit in film, and I don't mind being identified by those interests, but I can't go into a movie with preconceptions about what it's going to give me. I need to open myself up to it and meet it where it is.

I won’t lie, I got really nauseous during one scene in particular myself!

Man I had a stellar joke for this one about halfway through but after that ending I don’t think it’s funny anymore 😅

Capote isn’t my favorite of his by a mile, but getting a little piece of ephemera of his and getting to hear a fun publicist story about promoting this movie + Love Liza (which I love), was very special.

Didn’t expect to find something signed by Philip Seymour Hoffman at the poster sale today but let the record show I’d like to be buried with it

Extreme horror has its audience, but it is simply not a part of the genre that interests me, I will be watching Hellraiser if you need me

Non puritanically, I would rather eat glass than watch anything else from the guy who made the sadness

also if your review of Carrie doesn't include that Mike Flanagan's a coward for not making her fat it's not something I will be taking seriously

I’ll also have to see a “brand new” marquee in a few weeks. This city is embarrassing

Rewatching Red Rooms for the first time and there’s a shot in this movie i think about maybe once or twice a week that scares me more than anything I’ve ever seen

Only thing that rules about being unemployed during October is that I can bake cute Halloween cookies in the middle of the day 🎃

Scary stories to tell in the dark. Really wish I still had my original copies.
