Shoutout nerds we did it again
Also ps @minakimes.bsky.social the reason Yale pulled the huge comeback and won 43-42 in regulation is because they went for two after scoring the TD to make it 42-20 and hit it

274/365–‘Terrifier’ Art the Clown started in short films, was included in a horror antho flick, all before his breakout starring role as aforementioned Terrifier. Set-piece kill scenes are what makes this something special, along with the 80s vibe, and industrial tunes

273/365–‘Train to Busan’ Spent nearly 20 years in that seaside port and took the KTX train from Seoul to Busan about a hundred times, so this movie spoke to me. Already considered a classic among zombie films. Great FX, fast undead, and a tale to leave you in tears

272/365–‘Curse of the Undead’ #Svengoolie Crazy late 50s Western vampire flick that follows small-rancher-bullied-by-big-rancher-with-lone-gunman-to-the-rescue formula with ‘Shame’ (gunman) played by a vampire. Both baddies are defeated (priest over vampire over bully)

You really could just put a tight camera on John Candy with nothing but him and the driver's seat of a car in frame and then watch him almost wordlessly do five of the funniest minutes in the history of movies.

HEY GANG!

No GIALLO tonight. We're taking a break for the holiday week due to traveling and such. But if you still want to watch an Italian flick tonight, feel free and tells us in the comments.

At some point growing up I heard this song on the radio around Thanksgiving and it’s since been a tradition to listen to it. If you haven’t listened to it then you need to because you are in for a treat. #arloguthrie #alice’srestaurantmassacree #music

271/365–‘In Search of Darkness: A Journey into Iconic 80s Horror’ Took two days to get this 4-plus hour marathon, but was worth it to see which of the major 80s franchises dominated (hint: Jason wins!) If you watch #TLDI, you’ll recognize all of these films

Self promo is my bane; it makes me feel like an immense tit when I post stuff about my writing (thanks to upbringing - never blow your own horn), but it is increasingly apparent that all it means is that I'm utterly invisible as a writer...

So, anyway.

I have books and stories out there.

People who post "they don't make good movies anymore" or "movies are better than they have ever been" definitely need to watch more movies. Watch old movies. Watch movies with subtitles. Watch different genres. Otherwise you're missing out. #filmsky

How bad could a movie with this cast be? Turns out...pretty bad. Pretty bad to a Bacharach soundtrack even. Pretty bad to a Bacharach soundtrack on a beach.

Home insurance is in crisis, and Big Oil's lies are to blame.

"We’re never going to bend the curve of ever-rising insurance costs without addressing the core driver of higher prices: the worsening climate disasters that Big Oil knowingly made a reality," explains CCI's @iylas.bsky.social.
