Carved pumpkins with my family last night. Somehow my first iteration looked like Victor Wong.

Watching Tales from the Crypt with a friend, enjoyed “Dead Wait” (S3E6, 1991) with Whoopi Goldberg, John Rhys-Davies, James Remar.
Loved the twists in this, as many episodes are predictable (still fun). Whoopi also appeared after the credits.

Best way to watch Ginger Snaps.

Also, this guy (Paul Walter Hauser) is in everything, and he’s great.

Americana was awesome. Very funny. Loved all the characters.

Watched Let the Right One In (2008) last night. The story was different than I anticipated, but I absolutely loved it.

By now, I’m used to B&N releasing books a few days early. But picked up The End of the World as We Know It on Saturday (10 days early). Very excited to tap into it!

Just went through this week’s desk calendar pages. Wednesday’s gave me a chuckle.

Watching all episodes of Tales from the Crypt with a friend, enjoyed “Smoke Wrings” (S7E09, 1996) with pre-James Bond Daniel Craig playing an ex-con-turned salesman.

The show hasn’t been released on blu ray, and a reboot series was canceled in 2017. Damn rights issues. #horror #horrorsky

Another Tales of the Crypt episode that I enjoyed the other day is “Yellow.” It didn’t quite seem like horror but still a satisfying watch. The casting is incredible with this show. “Yellow” features Kirk Douglas, Eric Douglas, and Dan Ackroyd, with Robert Zemeckis directing.

In this episode, Brad Dourif looks like he could be Stephen King’s cousin (maybe it’s the overalls):

Watched more Tales from the Crypt with a buddy of mine.

“People Who Live in Brass Hearses” (S5E05) is worth watching for the acting. Bill Paxton, Brad Dourif.

An odd yet intriguing premise (from IMDB): “A hot-tempered convict with a butter addiction tries to get revenge on an ice cream trucker.”

Recently started watching Tales from the Crypt with a buddy of mine. Random order. Mentioning my favs as I go along.

“None But the Lonely Heart” (S4E1) directed by Tom Hanks. Many of these episodes center around skeezy characters, and this one is near the top.

Recently started watching Tales from the Crypt with a buddy of mine. Random order. I’ve seen 8 out of 93 episodes as of today.

“What’s Cookin’?” may be my favorite episode so far. Christopher Reeve, Judd Nelson, Meat Loaf.

Recently started watching Tales from the Crypt with a buddy of mine. No particular order.

“Cutting Cards” episode was strangely funny. The pacing felt abrupt until it became apparent this was intentional. Loved Lance Henriksen and Kevin Tighe.

How is this movie only PG with these kind of racy scenes? #Jaws

“Remember when I said this car was snow proof? Well, that wasn't a lie. This car is 100% snow proof. Only to get the benefit of it, honey, you REALLY need to be sitting in my seat!”
