Spending today packing for our trip to Basel tomorrow. Then we're off for a castle tour along the Rhine onboard the SS Antoinette with #uniworld. After that, we'll make a stop in Amsterdam before heading to London.

Know what wasn't a slick movie? Longlegs. I literally LOL'd at the ending scene. Not enough Nicholas Cage. Ridiculous occult take. It would have been much better had this movie been set in the '70s. Great performances but a dumb plot.

Strange Darling was a hell of a slick movie. It skipped around between six chapters, and it somehow worked. The actors were terrific in this one—just a terrific serial killer movie.

Yet another new cover. My wife and I are writing a series of American Giallos. They're fun, set in the 1980s, and feature rampant murder, strippers, and cocaine.

How would you do in a zombie apocalypse? 🧟♀️🧟♂️ Would you be a fierce survivor, using your wits and brawn to stay alive? Or would you be a zombie, shuffling aimlessly in search of brains? Or would you just taste delicious?
