Beautiful (and influential) female vampire film. Been waiting forever for it to show up on domestic Blu-ray.

Keep your eyes and ears peeled for this Peter Asher documentary currently playing the festival circuit. Narrated by the man himself, it includes loads of British Invasion and L.A. music scene lore. Plenty of licensed Beatles, J.T., and Ronstadt clips & needle-drops #MVFF

FYI, on the VS app home screen, the banner ad for THE MAN WHO COULD CHEAT DEATH says it stars Peter Cushing instead of Christopher Lee.

A little Star Trek joy to share today: during my tour at Lucasfilm courtesy of @kristinbaver.bsky.social, they had one of the huge ILM matte paintings of Starfleet used in the TOS movies.

The Tevin Campbell tracks were produced by frequent Prince collaborator David Z. and recorded at Paisley Park studios, facts that I'm certain @scottaukerman.bsky.social mentions (I haven't listened yet!)

Heathcliff the Summer Mummy, a mummy wearing board shorts and sunglasses, have fun, surfing, getting slushes, and riding on matching scooters. The Summer Mummy fist bumps Heathcliff before returning to the sand, where he belongs. A seagull stands behind Heathcliff and says "It's been a great summer."

The Kitty Korner reads "Fidelity Davis of Columbia, TN, says her cat 'Turtle' is the baby of a rescued pregnant stray. She was born with tortoise hair and a major tortitude!"

IMAX Presents Prince - Sign O’ The Times (1987). This was a trip to see again on the big screen. Mostly great, but “U Got the Look” has got to be one of his worst songs. #prince #imax #peachandblack

Some fun stuff I found while packing:
• Rob Finn on harmonica during a Kimble Bros. session.
• A vintage Micronauts figure (Pharoid with Time Chamber)
• Manual for Activision’s PITFALL! game.

Oh hey @glennkenny.bsky.social look what I found in my archives. From the Voice, Nov. 16, 1993. I was at that Fripp-Sylvian Beacon show too and yeah, it was kind of a snooze.

I’ve lucky enough and/or too old to know much about the Roganverse but I found this long video essay really fascinating and well done. Expands beyond the comedy world and takes no prisoners. Got into it way more than I thought I would and watched the whole thing! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewvR...
