My order from the last @vinsyn.bsky.social sale is in. GOIN’ SOUTH is a blind-buy, but I reckon I won’t regret it. The Larry Fessenden set is one I’ve been eyeing for some time. And BUDDIES is a long overdue addition to my collection. #PhysicalMediaForever
The Cinématographe 4K of Jack Nicholson’s GOIN’ SOUTH, the VS 4K of Larry Fessenden’s HABIT & NO TELLING, the VS Blu of Arthur J. Bressan, Jr.’s BUDDIES.

Ahead of the new Full Naughty Edition of Ken Russel's The Devils finally appearing at the end of the month, I've been revisiting Huxley's The Devils of Loudun. Features a reprint of the supposed diabolical pact made in 1634 between Urbain Grandier and Satan, signed by a further seven demons...
Urbain Grandier's alleged diabolical pact produced as primary evidence during the Loudun possessions witchcraft trial in France in 1634.  The purported contract was written in reverse Latin and signed backward or in coded script. It stated that Grandier traded his soul for earthly pleasures, power, and the love of women for 20 years.

Watched 1984's POPPERS on Shudder tonight and was taken with the costuming in two scenes. In the first, the backup band for an exotic dancer is a quartet of shirtless guys in black hoods. In the second, the dancer has teamed up with the protagonist to go undercover in a gay club in leather gear.

It's also a film that goes the extra mile by including its own premiere in the film, and intimates the Phantom himself is in attendance.
People lined up for the world premiere of THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN at the Paramount. The poster out front is the one for Charles B. Pierce's 1975 film WINTERHAWK. And yes, that is tinsel hanging from the awning. THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN was a Christmas release.

In ten days, I will be seeing Ken Russell’s THE DEVILS in a movie theater. Ten days after that, I will be seeing GODZILLA VS. MEGALON in a movie theater. This is shaping up to be quite the month for me.

Re-watched DEMON SEED and I have questions. Gerrit Graham's character seemed to be a fairly important guy, so how is he not missed for an entire month? And who cleaned up the mess in the basement after he was squished? And what happened to his vehicle? Proteus IV sure didn't move it.
Walter Gabler about to get the point. Four of them, to be precise.

Annual reminder on how to distinguish your werewolves for Halloween:
To the left straight werewolves, which are all people with hair glued to their face in appearance.

To the right LGBT+ werewolves, which are all anthro wolves in appearance.

This is such a weird, singular thing. I don’t know if I like it, but I do think anyone interested in what horror can be or the many iterations it’s been through, should see it. There’s a degree of “Hey! We’re making a movie!” charm to it, and it’s also has a very odd sensibility too.

Not sure if I’ve posted this before, but this is me as the Phantom at a horror convention last year “killing” someone with my trombone. This gentleman was the second person to ask me to do this. The first was Danny Trejo at a con in 2021. Wish I had a photo of that. The moment was surreal.

When I’m in need of Mirth-Provoking Head Gear next year for Halloween, I will be taking a page out of The BOGIE BOOK. This page specifically:
Cover of The BOGIE BOOK, “One of the Dennison Holiday series,” with all sorts of suggestions for “How to entertain on Hallowe’en,” including Decorations, Costumes, Favors, Games, and Menus. Its price is 10 cents, 15 in Canada. Page thirty-one of THE BOGIE BOOK, which gives directions for making a Cat Mask, Doll Face Mask, Ghost Mask, Fancy Hat, Pumpkin Mask, and Frog Mask.
