I think the basic problem with all these low-effort horror movie adaptations of recently-public-domain cartoon characters is they always make the titular character the monster. Like, nobody gives a shit about a film where Mickey Mouse is a zombie; they want to see Mickey Mouse FIGHT the zombies!

A quest to eliminate $5 million has tripled, thanks to the generosity and passion of THE TOXIC AVENGER fans across the country.

Together, you didn’t just meet that goal, you crushed it, helping wipe out over $15 million dollars in medical debt for 10,000+ people!

My next #MythologyMonday book recommendation is 'The Book of Japanese Folklore' by Thersa Matsuura (@uncannyjapan.bsky.social). It introduces a collection of yokai with Thersa's wonderful storytelling and gorgeous illustrations by Michelle Wang. She's also got a #yokai oracle deck on the way.

Front cover of 'The Book of Japanese Folklore'

Illustration of a white nine-tailed fix and red torii in a forest.

Illustration of a tengu, winged being with long red nose.

Open page of book with text about bakeneko and nekomata and illustration to match.

Not after a debate, I'm glad you enjoy her but like... Maybe try expanding your horizons a wee bit? Maybe some Siobhán Donaghy? Or a bit of Janelle Monae? Again, I'm not trying to piss on your chips- like what you like, I'm a horror account so my taste is pretty suspect - but...I mean...
