Artist, writer, aspiring dilettante. Just a person, not a brand. Love deep dives into classic horror films (pre 1980s) but am all about gothic, giallo, old dark house. Photographer by trade, do photo based mixed media art and dabble in writing.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

As a kid of a single mom in the 70s this hits home.

Amy Madigan was terrific, it was a shame they didn't do something more interesting with her character.

A junk shop roll of found photos so old the text from the backing paper has etched in over the years. Kodacolor II was made from 1973 to the early 80s and the clothes/space-age garden furniture seem to say 70s. Transmissions from a lost world.

If you needed to pad out the running time just shoot some grindhouse marquees

I mean did you even see Brock Lesnar's daughter throwing shot put? She'd get an infant in the strike zone
