Just got a letter that UHC is dropping coverage of one of my medications. Very excited to see what kind of ~*hot deal*~ I can work out with Walgreens like Trump is expecting me to do. 🥰

Just saw self-help. Pretty good stuff with a really nice performance by the lead. Then I randomly saw the masked killer from Founders Day and was VERY confused because I had no idea this was by the Bloomquist brothers. Fun little follow up to having just watched that.

Day 31: Halloween
Halloween II
A huge step up from the first. Also, YOWZA, Michael is vicious in this movie.
A+ to Danielle Harris, and I really liked how her death scene was filmed. Sorry, Annie. 😭
Not a bad way to end the month. Happy Halloween. 🥰

So this movie was a ride and did go beyond what I expected from the reveals. It did get MUCH better once the “baddie” couple got taken out because OOF big “how you doing fellow kids” energy in their dialogue.

Bugonia is that girl.
The score in this film is nothing I would’ve ever predicted but also absolutely perfect, and the ending is just *chef’s kiss*. Best use of Marlene Dietrich I’ve seen in some time.
I need to check out the original film now.

Headed to the Cincinnati Historical Archives to dig through boxes and see what I find. 😱

Hm… I’m not ending this month on the highest of notes. I didn’t mind the attempt to give Michael a backstory, but everything felt like an attempt to make the original again but with the not great way that things were in 2007. 😬

@zohrankmamdani is a deeply thoughtful human being and we think he would make the best NYC mayor imaginable. We feel this as New Yorkers, as Jews and as human beings who are desperate for kindness, compassion and empathy to be represented in our politics.

Working my way through Universal monster films, and always a great time. Great makeup and effects on Karloff. What a tragedy of a story… I’ll need to read the book at some point.
Also… wild how controversial this was. :x

Exorcism at 60,000 Feet
Well, this could’ve been in the bad taste category. 😬 I think this is the first thing I’ve seen Bai Ling in, and she’s a delight. Also, this movie had some of the best whimsical caper music I’ve heard in quite some time.
