When in doubt, default to movie talk. Good with numbers, but would rather write. Pittsburgh Pirates Fan.

Hostile Takeover is an action comedy carried well by Michael Jai White.
Friend Request is a good bad movie. Such great nonsense.
Don't Log Off is a covid thriller with people making the same bad decision.
Eye for an Eye has a creepy Sandman design on top of an okay story.
I give a lot of 2 1/2s

The cover that Hoopla uses for the audio book of William Peter Blattey's novel The Exorcist is...weird? I don't know. I'll say weird.

30minutes left on the east coast, I just now remembered #LetterboxdFriday
1. Goosebumps reborn in a Tubi Original. A nice surprise
2. Poorly done reboot to set up a questionable trilogy.
3. Horror comedy that doesn't get the balance right.
4. Feels like a rejected pilot. Interesting in that aspect.

1. A movie with that title should be a comedy, but it's a poorly done horror film instead
2. Hammer Horror Jekyll works, but drunk Christopher Lee is the best character.
3. Plays on the "Sins of the father" trope with an interesting twist.
4. Well done Tubi Original.

I turned on a movie called MURDER AT HOLLOW CREEK on Tubi and noticed that whoever was in charge of the exposition newspaper clippings did not have autocorrect on and did not care about typos in the slightest.

Four Nights at Fear Forest is a wonderfully low budget Five Nights at Freddys knock-off with amazingly cheap animatronic monsters, AKA actors in cheap Halloween costumes. It feels like a found footage movie that didn't want to bother with the found footage gimmick. It's an adorable attempt.

I do wonder if the labubu trend will lead to the third in the Pooka series.

Maybe I just like giving things three stars?
1. I'm a sucker for Crow related materials.
2. This whole thing is a fight scene delivery program for Bautsita.
3. Very funny. Jokes on top of jokes on top of coffee cups.
4. Exceptionally well done with a great ending. I should probably raise my rating

Loaded up Facebook to see where a birthday party is this weekend and got this targeted ad.
Starz is like, "Hey, Shawn, we know just what you need to subscribe to us" and I'm like, "True, that's my jam, Starz, but I've owned that DVD for like 20 years."

Never heard of this one, but it's on Tubi, seems to be a dark comedy, and it's got quite a cast, so I'm giving it a shot.

Checking in on a friend's pets while they're on vacation. Unsure how I didn't notice one was a terror from beyond the veil.

Had my first ranked 10-piece in The Bazaar. I've made enough in-game currency to buy a new character, and I might give it a try soon.

1. Sci-Fi Vin Diesel nonsense that was a fun enough watch.
2. Feels like it existed so LIGHTS OUT could learn from it.
3. Hallmark meets Horror. Very much my jam.
4. Lighthearted horror sci-fi (They go onto a planet of "Leatherfaces"). Michael Ironside is having a ball.

Some good, solid Bazaar-ing tonight. Got a slowing Katana and kept popping into Curio until it was slowing 2 items for 5 seconds each time it went off.
