Got married at the Music Box Theater. Co-edited books about mysteries. Haven’t read War and Peace but I have seen all of Doctor Who.

I’m sure this will be the social media site to remain chill.
Also, I'm posting this on a couple of places at once, but it's the beginning of October so I'm doing my usual thing where I ask for horror recommendations and I promise to watch them before the end of the month. Only rule is that I can't have seen it before.

Thanks to the Drafthouse Baby Day Screenings, it was our kid’s first movie! Gotta learn about class inequality early.

I just realized that Doctor Who is dropping on Disney+ at 2AM CT. Hmmm. This is going to be a series of choices the next eight weeks.

I love shows about madness and I’m so happy Game Changer is back.

I rewatched Episode 14 of Twin Peaks: The Return last night and was loving what a perfect final culmination of a career this series was.

"Robert, will pressing this button lead to the breaking of reality and the formation of a cosmic evil?"

On Letterboxd, I'm working on an Anti-Criterion challenge where you watch movies in different categories but they can't be in the Criterion Collection. Last night I watched the wrong version of Where Are My Children. Turns out, it was the female directed silent film not the cheesy 90s TV movie.

Every October I ask for five horror movie recommendations that I promise to watch by the end of the month.

Only rule -- I can't have seen it.

First ones in from my various social media places will be watched. Go!

Everything about Roger Corman's The Raven has been a bewildering surprise, but I could not have predicted Peter Lorre and Jack Nicholson playing father and son.

Last night I beat an excellent video game, Disco Elysium. Now during this very rainy Chicago day, I need to blast some SadFM.
