Day 7 31 days of horror movies “bloody bride” The Blood Splattered Bride Spanish film from 1972 based on Carmilla so a lesbian vampire film with heavy Giallo vibes & gorgeous cinematography but also more than cheep exploitation it had legit opinions on gender, patriarchy, fascism, and sex. Loved it

Day 6 31 Days of Horror Movies “PG-13” (out of order for reasons) Five Nights At Freddy’s, decided to keep with the theme and watching something teenager-ish. The movie had some good parts, but woof way too much focus on a dull protagonist’s backstory and not enough animatronic mayhem or scares

This movie absolutely fucking slaps hard, if you have a chance to see it do so. Especially if you like any form of Warhammer 40K. And even if like me you knew nothing about the comics. It’s just terrific animation, action, very British humor, and has heart

Day 5 31 Days of Horror “Feline Fright” with Sleepwalkers, haven’t seen this since it came out at the $2 theater and it’s just as bad now, but it has its charms like the line “cop kebab”. Plus who doesn’t have a crush on Mädchen Amick thanks to Twin Peaks?

Day 4 31 Days of Horror Movies “A Listers Early Role” The Burning that was the debut of Jason Alexander, Holly Hunter and Fisher Stevens! But as I learned also the first movie produced by convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein & written by Bob Weinstein… so the gross/creepy 80’s sex stuff ages even worse

Day 3 of 31 Days of Horror movies and already off list, watched Under the Shadow. And absolutely fantastic Iranian Horror movie that takes place during the Iraq/Iran war when an unexploded missile hits their apartment building and then are haunted by djinn.

Day 2 31 Days of Horror Movies “Bad Remake” Amityville Horror (2005), and yeah that was most definitely bad. But maybe that makes it a good remake as the original was also terrible. Anyway, this was an incoherent mess with zero tension and a very miscast Ryan Reynolds

October means 31 Days of Horror movies yet again. Will be vaguely following these prompts as I like the structure of it. First up for Rad Remake - Let Me In. Loved it, it’s exactly what a remake should be! By setting it in 80’s US it feels completely different and its own thing

Erika Ishii's inclusion is not a "controversial announcement". This is elevating weird gamergaters' boring whining as deserving of attention. There's no "sides" to this, there's no "issue": It's a talented performer who's done nothing wrong being hated for who they are.

The worst part of Bonta caving on the Paramount merger is that it's a big flashing signal to every other company that there is no antitrust enforcement in America and you can bully your way into getting whatever you want. It's a monumentally bad decision.

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

It's really shocking that a young woman who had such a strong career, starring in multiple films, died of poverty while Disney sucked the marrow of one of her movies to the tune of $1 billion. When we say socialism or barbarism: this what barbarism looks like.

Fucking despicable, never forget that the cops are trained be be frightened little bullies about everything so that they are “justified” in using lethal force. It’s why they have to pump themselves up with the “thin blue line”and punisher BS when in reality they just murder people and dogs

With the passing of legendary artist John Blanche I was looking over his art yet again. And I can’t tell you how long I spent looking at his Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay art just daydreaming in my youth. Foundational inspirations for me.

In the foreground a red robed figure with a skull and sign in German “der fiend drinnen”, and statue of an Angel carrying a woman away on a marker stone that says “Nuln”
