Someone asked me what my favourite horror film was today. After some thought (I am often stumped by such questions) I said THE DESCENT. They then looked it up and to confirm the title they said the one from 2005? Which is how I realised THE DESCENT is 20 years old this year!

In relation to the recent pie discourse, I miss Irvines Chicken & Vege Pie. It was a favourite, and I'm sad Irvine's is gone.

Here's the late, great Jimmy Cliff duetting with Paul Simon on Mother and Child Reunion in concert. The original studio recording had members of Jimmy Cliff's backing band playing on the track. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_52...

Always blow on the pie, Doug!
* New Zealand takes pies (namely, handheld meat pies) so seriously that there are National Pie Awards that get major media coverage. The New Zealand National Library has a whole dedicated category for “Pies — Competitions.”

Pie.

This is my absolute favorite photo of Udo Kier. Taken at Smitty's BBQ in Lockhart, TX in (I think) 2002 when he visiting Alamo Drafthouse's original location for screenings of Dracula and Frankenstein.
