I am furious, but I am sailing @stcaffeinated.bsky.social · 1hevery person I've ever talked to who says they love Flanagan also says that they don't like horror movies/shows in general, and I don't think that's a coincidence. He makes horror for people who don't like horror. 000
I am furious, but I am sailing @stcaffeinated.bsky.social · 1hI can hate Flanagan's adaptations for their general bastardization of the original as well as the crypto-conservatism and nuclear family propaganda he continually sneaks in. I contain multitudes. Also, I sat through Hill House, Bly Manor, and Midnight Mass, so I am not unfamiliar with what he does. 100

I am furious, but I am sailing @stcaffeinated.bsky.social · 5hthere was a tumblr post going around positing that Flanagan isn't fucking these texts up by accident, he's consciously choosing classic horror novels that are critical of the nuclear family/women's roles in society in order to "fix" them and I'm not NOT convinced at this point. 413520

I am furious, but I am sailing @stcaffeinated.bsky.social · 6hI think that's a misunderstanding of what motivates mass shooters. Most were not the bullying victims lashing out, the way they've been portrayed. They are angry, entitled, and feel like they are owed notoriety. 050
