We were going to do another big marketing stunt for THE TOXIC AVENGER UNRATED. Instead, Toxie, whose life was upended by crushing medical bills, has joined forces with Undue Medical Debt to erase at least $5 million in un-payable medical debt for those who need it most.

Oh man! I really dug this. What a gem. I find the creativity and authenticity at this budget level really inspiring. Go in as blind as possible. Shout out to @freddyinspace.bsky.social for putting it on my radar. Had no idea it existed until he posted about it.

I saw a wonderfully gruesome horror movie called BRING HER BACK this afternoon. Thoughtful, textured, and scary as hell.

A dream interview was chatting about WEREWOLVES with SFX legend Alec Gillis. Of all the movie monsters he's delivered in his impressive career, this marks his first werewolf! And he's already champing at the bit for a sequel:

I can't believe some old video store practically gave away the Christmas classic "Silent Night, Deadly Night 5" with a 39-cent rental.

Few things I love more than coming across Gremlins on TV during the holiday season. I'm tired. I was about to go to bed. But it can wait. I don't leave Kingston Falls until the movie kicks me out.

Annual reminder that The Munsters escorted Santa in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade back in 1964. Fred Gwynne reportedly got drunk and was shouting at everyone. Isn't that what the holidays are all about? Happy Thanksgiving!

The dirty little open secret to writing is that no one will ever know, nor care, how many drafts of a thing were written - people will only ever care about the crafted thing, and will, despite all knowledge to the contrary, assume it came out fully formed that way. No one thinks about shit drafts.

If you're looking for something fun to watch this week, BLACK FRIDAY (2021) is streaming on Prime Video. A very enjoyable little 1980s-style throwback. Cool practical creature effects, a fun cast of lovable sad sacks (Bruce Campbell! Devon Sawa!), and a final act that gets admirably wild. I'm a fan!

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

One of the things I've come to dislike most about social media is the hyperbole. Everyone's so desperate for engagement that they're dialing their responses to anything & everything up to an extreme. It's particularly bad over on Twitter. Would love to see this place foster a different environment.
