I realize the title of this post sounds arty, but it’s nothing of the sort. I just couldn’t come up with a clever title. I try to blog here about once a week (though, let’s be hon…

My sister needs help.
She and her family have 30 days to move because the landlord wants the house back.
It's not likely they can find a place that will allow 4 small dogs and 4 cats.
She needs help rehoming them so they won't go to the shelter.
Anyone in the Denton, TX area that can help?

I have not seen LADY. But HELL SPA is super fun. And MOUNTAIN FURY is a favorite of mine. (In fact, I sent the director my VHS copy some time ago when he found out this was happening because he didn't have a copy. He's a nice guy.) I recommend this set!

Poem–“In Autumn We Don’t Walk Alone”
I wanted to come up with a horror poem for the month, but then I thought, aren’t all of my poems terrifying in their own way? So, I settled for a more seasonal, slightly spooky poem instead. …

Finishing up my powerpoint for the awesome soap opera conference I'm attending in a few days, and OMG... so excited to talk about the relationship between daytime drama and TV movies. Pretty neat that two actors speaking at the conference - Kin Shriner & Constance McCashin - are in Obsessive Love

Thanks for joining us, everybody! Happy Halloween! Stay scary. No more pizza cutters!

Great. All the kids died, and the really nutty one came back. If Jennifer's dead, does she have to go to school? Can she be listed as a dependent on your taxes? What does she eat? #TVMParty

I like the music with the sort of carnivalesque theme that keeps appearing. Like when Ma gets to the bottom of the stairs. Reminded me of THE FUNHOUSE's score. #TVMParty

I've never been in a house where the circuit breakers were so convenient. Also, "Is anybody using too much electricity?" makes me think that we're in Green Acres. #TVMParty

The one advantage to losing a loved one when they are a child: You pay half-price on the coffin. #TVMParty (I know. Even I think that was bad taste.)

Yikes! The kid's really climbing onto the roof there. Good stunting kid. Plus, some of those shingles could use work. I have a pneumatic nail gun if you want to borrow it. #TVMParty
