We love Pam because she knows it’s her fault (it’s also Henry’s fault, but he doesn’t know it). In today’s Friday Feature, we revisit the tragedy of Pamela Fitzgerald in Ginger Snaps. Read about Pam’s Halloween night: www.culdesacofblood.com/friday-feature @raygonne.bsky.social
Pam sits at the dinner table and looks at her daughter Ginger with an expression of concern in Ginger Snaps

We love when good horror fills the theater & we go there together. But will we make it through the night? Today’s Friday Feature is Sinners. www.culdesacofblood.com/friday-feature @raygonne.bsky.social
Poster for the movie Sinners, featuring Michael B. Jordan. It has a collage of a group of people formed to fit the body of a guitar. They appear above a burning building, where people have gathered around outside to watch. In the background, above the collage of people is a face with glowing red lines. The poster includes the tagline, "Dance with the Devil," and says, "Only in theaters April 18. Shot with IMAX film cameras."

“You can hear a calliope in the distance somewhere but you know there’s no circus in town.” Today, we present two confessions & a bitter ending, all in the strange light of sometime past midnight & before a reasonable hour: three prose poems by Rich Boucher. www.culdesacofblood.com/rich-boucher
An empty room with stacked wooden chairs and two full length paned windows covered by sheer curtains backlit by a vibrant red light. The rest of the room is cast in a purple light.

@tendersubject.bsky.social just caught up on ep 32 (Society) & you all made the whole film fascinating, not just the shunting part. love the point about rich people missing out on everyday solidarity/belonging & seeking a gross absorptive/extractive substitute
