I know I was wrong when I said it was true that it couldn't be me and Today's Soundtrack in between without you.

A ★★★★ review of The Docks of New York (1928)
Less complicated than it could/should have been, but it still got me. Particularly the relationship between the two women. Lou is in a terrible marriage while Mae is entering a new marriage with a lot...

In case, like me, you need maps of Shirley Jackson's Hill House, here are a couple of her sketches (downstairs and up) that I found at these cool blogs:

I'm loving @jrwells82.bsky.social's articles about catching up on the Knightfall stories. I'd totally forgotten about The Ventriloquist's using that creepy sock puppet as a sub for his dummy.
Knightfall Journey, so far
When you think of comic events, what is the first to come to your mind? One of DC’s many Crisis’, or maybe Marvel’s Civil War? For me, the first major comic event I was aware of was The Death of Su…

I am such a sucker for vintage Lord of the Rings stuff, especially from the late 70's with Rankin & Bass' 'The Hobbit', Ralph Bakshi's "Lord of the Rings', and so much sick fantasy art, like this 1979 poster by Judy King Rieniets.

I grew up only knowing Eleanor Parker as the Baroness from Sound of Music. I love discovering earlier roles of hers and this is a great one.

I recently read - and loved - The Bird's Nest, the Shirley Jackson novel this is based on, so I wanted to see the adaptation. Eleanor Parker is great as the title character as well as her other two pe...

Last couple of comics I read. With Gotham Academy getting a restart, I want to refamiliarize myself with the original stories. That was a super fun comic.

Krispy Kreme just reopened in Minnesota. I'm looking forward to getting one of their donuts in six months after the line goes down.

That's the way (uh huh uh huh) I like Today's Soundtrack.
Except that I've heard enough Kraftwerk to last me now. They sure were influential on a lot of bands I love, but they're not for me.

Surprisingly, Randy Quaid playing the Creature was not the problem with this adaptation.
