If the BBC are smart they'll make Michael Sheen the next Doctor and let him run around with the spare David Tennant Doctor as much as possible. On a completely unrelated note, why is fanservice a bad thing? 🤔 #DoctorWho #GoodOmens #RewatchThoughts #INeedThisToHappen #okbye

I was Holly's age in 1987 and this is my copy of A Wrinkle in Time now. There is fun AND horror in seeing yourself in what is probably referred to as a Period Piece 🥹🥺🥰😬👵😅 I wasn't into D&D back then (too young/not enough friends) but I LOVED this book #CoreMemory #Camazotz #StrangerThings #okbye

*peeks through pulsing gate* Oh hey! I've been in the Upsidedown for the past week 😅 Just surfacing to note how much I love that the episode lengths keep stretching like Hop's waistline S1-3 😂 Makes the wait for Christmas' & NYE's movie-length episodes more tolerable. #GIMME #StrangerThings #okbye

Initial thoughts on Peacemaker: when DC stops taking itself so seriously, it gets 1000% better. I love dark stuff as much as the next horror nerd, but thank goodness they handed the reigns over to James Gunn, because Zack Snyder curved a little too emo to enjoy. #DCU #MyTwoCents #RIPPennies #okbye

In true ADHD fashion I got behind and abandoned the Halloween movie thing 😅🤷‍♀️ But I'm going to stop avoiding Bluesky in shame because Stranger Things is next week and I'm going to have THOUGHTS. Also because I just started watching Peacemaker and again, THOUGHTS. #TooMuchNerdJoy #okbye

Got a bit behind on #31DaysOfHorror due to real life shenanigans that involved an apple orchard 🍎 a pumpkin patch 🎃 introducing my 9yo niece to Nightmare Before Christmas 💀🎅 and trying not to buy the entire decor section of Spirit Halloween 👻💸 I'll double up this week to catch up. #StayTuned #okbye

Oct 15 - Coherence. Took this one from the list. Pretty good, a few solid creepy moments. The acting felt very improv. The characters seemed like the usual SoCal stereotypes, the ones most of us only know from meta films and shows 😅 #31DaysOfHorror ⚛️🤔😵 #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 15/10/2025

Oct 14 - 30 Days of Night. I picked this for the vamp category because I'm mildly obsessed with polar night because I have reverse SAD & I remember really enjoying this when I saw it in the theater *takes a deep breath* Good excuse to finally watch it again 🤝🎃 #31DaysOfHorror #ArcticHorror 🥶🧛‍♂️ #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 14/10/2025

Oct 13 - Frankenweenie. Picked this for Animated since it's one of the few Tim Burton movies I haven't seen yet. Hoping it doesn't trigger pet death anxiety (I have a lot of triggers y'all 😅). I'm sure it will be lovely and poignant even if it does, TB is very good at that. ❤️‍🩹🐶 #31DaysOfHorror #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 13/10/2025

Oct 12 - Nosferatu (1922). I love this movie. Thank goodness for film studies introducing me to the awesomesauce that is German Expressionism. Cabinet of Doctor Caligari is another favorite. Watch that one if you're curious where Tim Burton got his aesthetic. #31DaysOfHorror 🤫🧛‍♂️ #FilmNerd #okbye

Highly recommend the Treehouse of Horror list on D+ (although the UX is clunky af) to help get in the Halloween mood. Not that I need much help, spoopy is my baseline. 👻🎃👽 #TheSimpsons #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 12/10/2025

Ngl, I lol'd as I scrolled. Well played, D+ 😅 I don't care if it's corporate pandering, just gimme that sweet Halloween dopamine 🎃👻😍

A Disney+ menu shows categories in ranked order of A Little Fear, A Little More Fear, A Lot of Fear, & Completely Terrified.

Oct 11 - Underwater. Trying a new-to-me suggestion for the Deadly Seas category. Hoping this doesn't trigger claustrophobia too badly 👀😬 So far I'm just enjoying Kristen Stewart's emoting. #31DaysOfHorror 🌊👻 #TheAbyssIsNotHorrorBTW #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 11/10/2025

Oct 10 - Shaun of the Dead. Happy to stick to the suggestions for this one. It's basically horror nerd crack. It's so cute with all the little Easter eggs and film nerd tricks ❤️ Fun fact: I got to watch this in class during my film studies courses 🙃 #31DaysOfHorror 🧟‍♀️💞 #ZomRomCom

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 10/10/2025

Oct 9 - Something Wicked This Way Comes. The Giallo category doesn't interest me so I'm substituting this because it recently appeared on Disney+ and I screamed. I loved this movie as a kid and haven't seen it in probably 30 years. SO EXCITED. #31DaysOfHorror #NostalgiaHorror 🤓🥰👻 #okbye

Oct 8 - V/H/S Halloween. Stumbled on this one looking for a found footage movie and while I think most of the VHS movies are great, this one was a little disappointing. Mostly just torture p*rn & the wrapping story was just goofy. Oh well, worth a try. #31DaysOfHorror 📼🩸 #TheyCantAllBeWinners #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 08/10/2025

THE Suicide Squad (2021) is just... well, a waste of some great actors (Flula! Fillion! Rooker!) and also a lot of silly fun. With really no connection to the main arc that Snyder introduced in the E X T E N D E D Justice League. Excited for Peacemaker tho! #DCEU 🤔🤷‍♀️

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 08/10/2025

Oct 7 - The Fly (1986). Watching this with some trepidation since I've never actually sat through it before. Also because I just ate dinner oops 😬😅 Hope the awesome that is Jeff and Geena get me through this 🪰 #31DaysOfHorror #BodyHorror#SquishyStuff #yuck #okbye

Oct 6 - Pulse (US). This is one of my fav US remakes of Asian horror and really underrated. The tech is dated and the science is a bit goofy, but it's so effectively bleak and scary that it works as late stage period piece (did I just make up a genre??). #31DaysOfHorror 📶👻 #Technophobia #okbye

040

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

Oct 5 - The Others. So creepy and weird the first time, so sad and fascinating when you inevitably rewatch due to The Twist at the End. All the fog and gloom make it perfect for fall. 👻😶‍🌫️ #31DaysOfHorror #CreepyKids #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

Oct 4 - The Thing (1982). What an absolute classic. I do seem to be losing some of my stomach for gore, but it's still such a fun ride (except the dog stuff 😰) that I can still appreciate the artistry even as I'm 🤢😅 #31DaysOfHorror #TheCrawlingHeadTho 🙌 #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

Oct 3 - A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). I was OBSESSED with this movie during my young days of horror discovery. Happy to say it's still a fantastic movie with delightfully bad acting and questionable but fun logic 😂❤️ #31DaysOfHorror #OneTwo #FreddysComingForYou... 😶‍🌫️ #okbye

Ok so the 2021 Justice League really is just a director's cut then 😂 Same movie with some added details. Ooof, the DCEU is kind of a hot mess isn't it? #LateToTheParty #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

WW84 is a big improvement over the first one. Very nostalgic with all the 80s cold war nuclear fear, nearly to the point of PTSD 😅 Hot take: I prefer clean-shaven Pedro. Love that he's still always a daddy 😂❤️ #DCEU

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

I'm almost grudging in my enjoyment of Birds of Prey after all the unimpressive female characters in the DCEU so far, but fuck it, it's a blast 😍 And if they're gonna have a male villain I love that it's Ewan McGregor. Such fun! #CawCaw #DCEU #LadySupesFTW #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

Shazam was fun. Teen superheroes always bring out my Auntie Bear, and the family plus group of adorable kids was delightful. I hope he gets to interact with some of the main heroes. Also they don't hate TWD fans after all! #JERRY #OMGHIJERRY 😭 #DCEU #jerrrryyyyy #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

Oct 2 - Sleepy Hollow. I'm sort of amazed I haven't been watching this every year. It's a perfect Halloween movie, made by the ultimate spooky director, with the best cast and ALL the autumn vibes. Must remember to add this to the regular Fall rotation. #31DaysOfHorror 🎃🎃🎃 #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

Aquaman is unsurprisingly my favorite origin movie so far. I'm only 25 minutes in, so we'll see if that continues. Let's be honest, as long as there's Momoa on my screen, I'm gonna be happy. Also loving the parents in this one 🥰🧜‍♂️ #DCEU #Aquaman #BobaFett #Satine #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

Oct 1 - The Witch (or VVitch if you prefer). Actually paid attention all the way through this time and it was better (spookier) than I remembered. Ending was definitely happier than I first thought - girl finally found her coven 🙌🤝💅🤘#31DaysOfHorror #SeasonOfTheWitch 🧹 #okbye

Started a seasonal movie watchalong using this list, in which each day has a theme with suggestions. Much simpler than trying to find exact movies on all the platforms. Just been too tired to actually post about it, but I'll catch it up soon. Happy Spooktober! 🎃👻🍂 #31DaysOfHorror #okbye

BvS I'm 10 mins in and I love that it addresses the casual destruction of Metropolis & death of who knows how many bystanders while Supey & Zod had their little fistfight. Can heroes maybe try luring villains away from heavily populated areas before going berserker? #JustAThought #DCEU #okbye

Melanie Rose (she/her) @geekchick1013.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

Now I'm starting Batman v Superman and five minutes in I'm completely distracted by Bruce's parents being MAGGIE and NEGAN and why does the DCEU hate The Walking Dead fans? #NOPENOPEsorryNOPE #RIPGlennRhee #NeverForget #TVtrauma #okbye

Finally watching through the DCEU. Man of Steel was just... not great? It seems like it should be great, like the casting was mostly 👩‍🍳😘 but it seems like they're not great at female characters, which does track with my experience watching Wonder Woman. #LateToTheParty #DCEU #orDCU? #whatever #okbye
