Watching We Need to Talk About Kevin and as someone with no kids, this just confirms that they are all really really scary.

Grey day, time change. A lazy Sunday and a Seijun Suzuki.

Now watching: @filmsradiance.bsky.social's blu of A Tale of Sorrow and Sadness

A hand holding a blu ray copy of a movie called A Tale of Sorrow and Sadness. Under the title, a woman lays on a bright green golf course in a white sweater and red skirt. She looks defeated.

Any Devil's Night just doesn't feel right without watching John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness. It's a requirement.

The actress Adrienne Barbeau as the character, Stevie Wayne from the film, The Fog. She is a brunette woman sitting behind a microphone in a flannel checked shirt. The subtitles read: 'Stevie Wayne, here, beaming a signal across the sea.'

It's chilly and windy and rainy out and I'm already under a blanket sitting in front of the couch and starting John Carpenter's The Fog at 6pm. I think I'm doing it right, but can you bring over the hot cocoa?

Title card for John Carpenter's The Fog. The words are superimposed over the rolling waves of the oceans washing ashore. It's after midnight and looks very ominous.

SCENE by Abel Ferrara. I have no idea where this is going to take me.

#filmsky
A hand holding a hardcover book. It has a black and white image of a gray haired man looking to the life. At the top of the book: 'Abel Ferrara.' At the bottom: 'Scene.' It is a memoir by Abel Ferrara.

Now watching: a double feature of Rob Zombie's Halloween and Halloween II. Purposely skipped them the first time around but I am real real intrigued by the director's cut of Halloween II. Divisive is the word.

In the foreground, Michael Myers is walking down the center of a road. It dark, a single streetlight illuminates a woman holding a roped horse. They are both bright white, contrasting with the darkness around them.

A popcorn bucket in the shape of Halloween II's Michael Myers sits on a concession stand counter. Blood tears run from the eye holes. Next to the popcorn bucket is a giant popcorn container filled with popcorn.

Woke up feeling autumnal so I had to do the thing and go pick up the @terrorvisionvids.bsky.social's blu of WNUF Halloween Special / Out There Halloween Mega Tape. Big spooky season vibes just looking at that cover.
A hand holding a blu ray copy of WNUF Halloween Special / Out There Halloween Mega Tape. It's a black slipcover with a UFO, a flying saucer with a beam over a graveyard. It feels autumnal and spooky in a retro way.
