#Shocktober 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) - What a profoundly odd movie. Dacosta has really leveled up from her disappointingly mediocre Candyman, this has some gorgeous shots and despite being structurally very lumpy, it comes together well with a SMASHING musical number of all things!

Love that the evil organization Destron takes over a hospital and refer to it as a “Destron-affiliated hospital” - like, you can choose your hospital group, NYU Langone, Columbia-Presbyterian, or Destron, but Destron probably doesn’t take your HMO. Also, they <might> turn you into a beastman.

In fact, turning this into a shorted version for, shall we say, future use on social media.

This lady is amazing, there is not one ounce of scenery she doesn’t throughly masticate and digest.

Going to attempt to paint this which is pretty complicated. And has a shark

Well that little sister just got fully stabbed and murdered by Scissors Panther so serves her right I suppose

#Shocktober A Short Vision (1956) - Shit, who needs 2+ hours of The Day After. This’ll fuck you up in that Watership Down way.

Now starting: (man, I was just commenting to my wife what a nice breakfast mug V3 has and then his little sister made him smash it, bad sibling)

Everything he wears in this movie is 80s 🔥

Cinema Strikes Back @cinemastrikesback.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

I distinctly remember my friend describing this movie to me blow by blow as a little kid in the 80s. Years before I actually saw it, it’s flawed but unique. Also Brian Thompson as a gay bodybuilder/helicopter pilot.

The weirdest thing about this movie is learning that Jason is a Fire type Pokemon and Freddy is a Water type (swear to god)

Love that piece. My fave is and always has been this guy:

Cinema Strikes Back @cinemastrikesback.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

If I have one solitary complaint about this movie, it’s that when the hillbilly son gets beheaded while his mom is cooking stew in a big stewpot next to a window, Jason does not throw his head directly into the pot. A real missed opportunity and frankly I’m disappointed in the filmmakers. Shame!

Cinema Strikes Back @cinemastrikesback.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Tommy Jarvis seems to spend a lot of time in horror-tinged cemeteries where people are digging up Jason. Speaking of horror shows, “special appearance by Corey Feldman”

Ditto the ridiculous dancing by future murder victims, in the tradition of the great Crispin Glover.

not on the level of IV and VI, but very enjoyable. Some random thoughts: 1. If you don’t think the hockey mask smashing the logo rules, I give up, I can’t teach you how to enjoy life.

#Shocktober Friday the 13th V: A New Beginning (1985) - my buddy has been on me to give this another shot and yeah, I was wrong. This shit is FUN. Just a non-stop parade of cartoonish characters, ridiculous murders, boobs (my god, Debisue Voorhees), chainsaw duels, and general goofy stupidity. 😘

I really want to explore the origins of those tarantulas that eat that dude’s eyeballs. I feel like there must be a compelling backstory there that would be perfect for an Annabelle-type spin off series.

Cinema Strikes Back @cinemastrikesback.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

Seriously, what even is the point if you’re cutting out like 6-7 scenes like this (which are very clearly the reason this movie exists)

#Shocktober Scanner Cop II (1995) - GOAT villain character actor Patrick Kilpatrick as a vampiric scanner that sucks life out of other scanners with a disgusting assist from primo John Carl Buechler. And per usual a lot of people scrunching off their faces while the Scanner noise plays.

One more down (the big ol Anointed) and I’ve started playing around with the beach bases. #trenchcrusade also got some great new Dirty Down paints for rust and verdigris effects, want these Naval Raider boys to look they’ve been in the ocean too long

Dude!!! I had the exact same thought last night, was like, yeah, I’d stop by for a late night meal too

I love the transition from that to this over the course of the long night

I love that half of Austin Abrams’ performance is basically this scene with Palmer from The Thing 😆

#Shocktober Resident Evil (2026) - What if instead of badass hottie Milla Jovovich, the hero of Resident Evil was just … some dweeb. absolute blast, Resident Evil as Evil Dead. And I don’t mean the new dour Evil Deads. The good ones. The funny ones. Shit, I want to go see this again with my kids.

Used to snuggle under the kotatsu and watch this shit on their crap little tv and eat giant slices of bread with butter.

Throw in some stop motion dinosaur skeletons eating claymation museum guards and the professionally naked Julie Michaels and you’ve got a stew going!

The real secret weapon is Jeffrey Combs, who brings considerable weird charm to his “Doctor.” The other secret weapon is Brian Thompson, who very much plays the Kurgan to Combs’s Highlander (I guarantee they were aping that when they made this).

#Shocktober Doctor Mordrid (1992) - You know what? This horror-tinged “Dr. Strange with the serial numbers filed off” Full Moon flick(guessing Marvel would have frowned on showing bush in an official MCU project) was pretty fun!!! It’s not great but it’s short and moves along at a pleasant clip.

finally my girls, the Deep Hive Strutters, do some business. Fun scenario, fighting over a bridge on an icy toxic sump river, enemy sent a wave of bomb rats at me, but my superior sharpshooting took them down. #necromunda

Finally got to bust out my Aquilons kill team last night for a game that went shockingly well considering I’m just learning to play these guys and my opponent has a ticket to Worlds. As he said, he did not expect me to be so aggro 😆 #killteam #warhammer

I kind of love when you come across an IMDB/TMDB bio that was clearly written by the actual person themselves. (Three guesses what movie I’m watching, no, not the obvious ones)
