Today’s #horror #film is The Lighthouse (2019)
Always a winning film- one of my all time favorites for a dreary feeling day.

Watched a second #horror #movie today: Eyes of Fire (1983)
This was a decent frontier horror. Some of the effects are a bit silly, but the supernatural elements are interesting.

Today’s #horror #movie: Blood Moon (2014)

Ugh. Wish I didn’t watch so much of this movie before I realized how racist against Native Americans it was going to be.

I don’t recommend this one at all.

I’d really like to see a well made werewolf western! Are there any?

A ★ review of Blood Moon (2014)
The racism makes this immediately bad. It could be an ok watch if it wasn’t for that. It’s also a bit silly and full of tropes. It could have worked better as a comedy and if it just had werewolves in...

Consecration (2023)

It’s not a great film, but I think it’s a bit underrated- maybe because it’s lighter on the horror elements and a bit dry.

Today’s #horror #film is: Carrie (1976)
This story stuck with me when I read it around age 13. I think the film was well made and still holds up. Fantastic performances from Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie.

Today’s #horror #film: From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)

This one I haven’t seen in ages. I remember seeing it in the theater when it came out and at a few parties along the way since.
GenX classic.

Today’s watch: Immaculate (2024)
I’m about halfway through and so far just an average sort of convent horror.
It’s worth the watch though.

This moment is a test. Donald Trump wants us to blink first and hand him over power.

We have too much to save to give in. Protecting the American people is too important a task for us to give up before anything even starts.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been on here, but tomorrow is October and I’m doing my horror a day as a distraction, but I’m also here to keep some tabs on all the things going on too.

I started my horror a day early with The Devil Bat (1940)

Spending a lot of time with this album this week. It’s a brilliant journey through so many layers of reality. It’s fulfilling. It’s heartbreaking. It’s so real, yet I sense the hope in its horror.

When you become chronically ill, your world shrinks.

You can’t do a lot of the things you used to. People disappear. It can be an isolating existence.

That said, you learn to slow down, simplify your life & reject rampant consumerism.

These skills will be invaluable when facing what’s to come

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

“Buy” from Contortions is a brilliantly fantastic album. Influenced by James Brown with jazz and punk elements along with tight bass lines and lots of rhythm change-ups. This album is a treat.

I watched Féwaka last night. It was a bit unsatisfying, but still worth the watch. I thought it had great sound design and it’s a decent folk horror story.
