Re-watched The Brood. Just fantastic - every shot looks amazing plus Oliver Reed & Samantha Eggar smash it.
And it's vibe - so bleak.
Genuinely unsettling & thoroughly recommended.

What movie villain is a horrible person, but an absolute joy to watch on screen?
Christopher Walken playing an absolutely rotten father in "At Close Range". He has fluffy hair and a moustache. He is smiling but appears to have a mouthful of food. His open-necked shirt is blue with a leaf motif. There is a brick wall & some foliage behind him. Sean Penn can be seen in profile. He too smiles.

The skull of Livyatan melvillei, an extinct sperm whale from the Miocene epoch, was roughly 3 meters (10 ft) long and 1.9 meters wide.
Cast of Livyatan melvillei skull at the Natural History Museum of the University of Pisa. It is huge (3m long) The teeth are enormous. It is an almost ridiculously ferocious-looking thing.

Might have something #Halloween -y in the pipeline for tomorrow...
A beautiful two-faced woman super-imposed on reflected articulated horses. The horses are from a George Melies film. It's all sepia-toned,giving it an Edwardian ambience.

RIP June Lockhart.
I loved her turn in Troll (1986) in which she appeared with her daughter Anne (pic 2).

My brother had the attached paperback copy of Psycho when we were kids & the cover freaked me the Hell out. A good read as I recall, tho it has been a looong time.
The Corgi paperback cover for Robert Bloch's Psycho. It features the blood-spattered tiles of a shower stall with a shadow cast across. A knife blade reflects a pair of very mad eyes.

Jeez, all this #Cardiacs/#TimSmith love is gladdening my hopeless heart.
The new album #LSD is magnificent - the spirit/fingerprints/tunes of Tim are all over it & all the affectionate friends have smashed it.
Just wonderful.
Buy it as a thing:

"Labour’s efforts to attract support on the right have brought little reward and have potentially alienated much of their base"
Truly unsurprising, yet Keir & the Gang continue with their ersatz Reform bullshit.
More from the British Election Study here:
www.britishelectionstudy.com/uncategorize...
Labour's efforts to attract support on right 'have brought little reward', says election study The British Election Study, the most authoritative study of voting behaviour in the UK, has published new research today looking at how support for Labour has declined since last summer. “Labour’s collapse in support since the 2024 General Election has been remarkable,” it says. Though Reform has taken Labour’s place at the top of the polls, it is not the case that the two parties are simply trading voters. Reform’s rise has for the most part come from the Conservatives and non-voters, whereas Labour’s support has splintered between indecision and other left-liberal parties. Labour’s efforts to attract support on the right have brought little reward and have potentially alienated much of their base (who make up most of Labour’s losses), and there is a lot of work to be done to convince voters that they can make a difference on the economy. Labour have a large majority in Parliament and four years until they need to hold a new general election, but they have a difficult task to turn things around.

V cool.
Did you ever come across The Flesh Eaters by L A Morse a novel also based on Sawney Bean? V grim, sleazy & nasty. I read it when I was a little weirdo kid...
The cover for The Flesh Eaters by L A Morse, a sordid & brutal novel based on Sawney Bean and his cannibal clan. It depicts two muscular, loincloth-clad bestial fellows dragging a dead or unconscious man. One assumes he is destined to be consumed. One of the bestial men carries a large, bloodied dagger.

And don't forget batshit TVM Devil Dog: Hound of Hell & the campy but v entertaining Zoltan Hound of Dracula.
A black & white newspaper advert for the crazy 70s TV movie Devil Dog: Hound of Hell ft a family with a German Shepherd Dog seated in front of them and behind them is a large dog with fangs & horns.

And some mind-bending FX sequences as it's directed by SFX maven Doug Trumbull. I need to revisit this.

No idea if this fits the bill, but I read Riddley Walker by Russell Hoban this year, and it was so peculiar and excellent that I kind of recommend it to everyone so... It's written in a strange dialect (see attached first few paras).

Possibly my favourite werewolf design. And what a cast!
Plus these behind the scenes pics are incredible:

Arachnid encounter: Noble False Widow.
I was cutting up a little dead tree on the front drive and emitted a shrill & girlish shriek for all to hear when this chap appeared. Apparently, the UK's most venomous spider.

#Cardiacs new album, #LSD synchronised listening parties!
I'm greatly excited to be going to the London one, hosted by #ChaosTheory with none other than splendid Cardiacs alumnus #WilliamDDrake.
Anyone else going to London? Or any of the others for that matter...
