Movie recommendations on Sunday and book recommendations on Monday. Now I added Comics Recommendations for Saturday. Tell your loved ones about Catturd Tuesdays. It’s not much of a description but if I don’t mention it, I won’t remember it at my age.
Monday Book Recommendation: I don’t read many biographies but I love If Chins Could Kill. Campbell is fascinating, hilarious, and positive even through some lean times before he became famous. I never knew that it was so difficult to make The Evil Dead. Thank them for what they went through.

Overdue Monday Book Recommendation: The Time Ships is an extremely ambitious sequel to HG Wells’s The Time Machine. It gives us Dyson spheres, alternate dimensions, sympathetic Morlocks, and some HG Wells Easter eggs.

Overdue Monday Book Recommendation: Zombie is proof to the old adage “Hell is other people”. Especially when other people are Dahmeresque serial killers. Short and not quite as creepy as the Mar-a-Lago guest list, but still creepy.

I forgot the poster thumbnail. Apologies.

Heavier Trip is a little bit inferior to the first film but it’s still got a lot of great laughs. I also love how BABYMETAL effortlessly wins over “sellout hater” Xytrax with catchy pop melodies and by being just generally sweet natured.

You know what one those real problems is. It’s you, you goddamn son of a bitch!!!

Saturday Comics Recommendation: Accident Man is an utterly insane tale of a killer who makes it all look like an accident. Also, watch both Accident Man movies. Perry Benson completely owns the sequel.

Overdue Saturday Comics Recommendation #2: The Last of the Independents is incredibly enjoyable old fart noir in the tradition of The Friends of Eddie Coyle. It’s not realistic but you root for the old man while he’s kicking ass.

Overdue Saturday Comics Recommendation #1: Decorum is like a far future version of The Kingsman because both deal with the importance of manners and the readiness to kill in less than a moment’s notice. My favorite character is the foul mouthed muscle bound female drill instructor.

Meanwhile, this old cooze is free to spread his Satanic spawn.

I watched Ballerina last night. It didn’t reinvent the wheel but it provided plenty of much needed cinematic violence and gore. I’m a firm believer in violence and gore in movies.

Sunday Movie Recommendation: It’s almost 40 years old but The River’s Edge is just as timely today as it was then. It’s based on the true murder of Marcie Renee Conrad in Milpitas, California.

Overdue Sunday Movie Recommendation: Dark Star is one of the craziest films in one of the craziest decades of filmmaking: the 1970s. John Carpenter was doing Douglas Adams before Douglas Adams.

Save me Jesus!!! Save me Buddha!!! Save me Tom Cruise!!! Steve Bannon just threatened me with the best time possible!!!

I watched Bob Roberts back in 2016. I am sorry if I offend any fans here but I felt like the satire was hopelessly dated even in 2016. What a fictional Bob Roberts did in private a very real Trump does in public without fear of consequences.

Overdue Monday Book Recommendation #2: So many things I want to say about The Man Who Fell to Earth. Let’s just say it’s one of the most aptly named novels ever when you stop and think about it.
October 28, 2025 at 6:19 AM
Overdue Monday Book Recommendation #1: It might look like any other silly paperback from Hell but The Amulet is a surprisingly clever commentary on Southern life from one of horror’s most missed voices: the incomparable Michael McDowell.
October 28, 2025 at 6:07 AM
Overdue Sunday Movie Recommendation #2: Tae Guk Gi: Brotherhood of War is a must see movie about the Korean War from the Korean perspective. It is one of the best films of the 21st century.
October 28, 2025 at 5:58 AM
Overdue Sunday Movie Recommendation: Miracle Mile is an absolute beast of a movie that didn’t get the respect it deserved when it came out but people are starting to understand its brilliance today.
October 28, 2025 at 5:51 AM
Overdue Saturday Comics Recommendation: ohhhhhh, Netflix. Here is a visual representation of Ed Gein done correctly. He was not a sex god. He was a creepy son of a bitch.

When one says “data center”, this is what you should be thinking of.

I really don’t watch wrestling anymore but I am happy to see that they are letting Sting embrace his aging instead of using some vain attempt to make him look younger.
October 19, 2025 at 10:31 PM
Saturday Comics Recommendation: Adventures in the Rifle Brigade is a hilarious, politically incorrect take on war comics. Crude and offensive but crude and offensive for all the right reasons.

An open letter to Mike Davis:

Dear ass-spigot,

Your racism is hanging out. Tuck it back and withdraw from the company of decent people everywhere.

Sincerely,

Someone sick of Hitler gooners
