Next I'm watching In The Mood For Love (2000). Probably one of the most beautiful films ever made. And the costumes! Just gorgeous.

I turned on the Criterion live stream. Love Letters (1983) just started. This was the movie Amy Holden Jones made after Slumber Party Massacre was so successful.

The Hungry Ghosts (2009). I've not seen this one, but I love a movie that happens over a single day.

I need to be better at promotion. My most recent novella is a weird retelling of the myth of Daedalus.

My weird little retelling of the myth of Daedalus is pretty good if I do say so myself.

Cover reveal for the Meow Wolf RPG.
Cover for Tavers: the Meow Wolf role-playing game. Blue is the prominent color. We see alien beings opening portals and hoping through. There are many many universe and locations smashed together in the background.

Image from The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions. Text reads "Faggot Wisdom: When you feel pain fall into your brothers' love." The illustration is a lightning bolt striking through clouds. A figure falls.

30 years ago this Thursday, one of the best, and queerest, episodes of Star Trek aired.
Still from the 1995 episode of Deep Space Nine titled Rejoined. Still shows two white women kissing. This was one of the first lesbian kisses on American TV.

Meme of a red cartoon fish looking at their phone and frowning. Used mainly to show sadness and disgust with another user's post.

It's Rocky Horror night for me. I don't need to tell you about this movie. If you've not seen it, just see it. I'm watching the new 50th anniversary remaster.
Photo of the Rocky Horror lips. They are bright red. The moth is biting it's lower lip in a sensual way. The lips are isolated on a black background without a face.

This rose hasn't bloomed in over a year. I thought it was dead! But here we are on October 13th with a high of 58°.

BE GAY. DO CRIME.
Still from Daughters of Darkness (1971). A woman with short blonde hair stands with arms spread, she is wearing a vampire cape. Another woman stands in front of her.

I mean... come on.
Still from Daughters of Darkness. Delphine Seyrig, who is a PALE white woman, has platinum blonde hair and is wearing a crimson red dress. She has bright red lipstick on as well. She is drinking a mint green cocktail. She looks fabulous.

Tonight I'm watching one of my favorite vampire movies. Daughters of Darkness (1971) is lumped into the "erotic-horror" and "lesbian vampire" categories. It is those things. Very very much those things.
Poster for Daughters of Darkness (1971). The poster shows a woman who is a vampire standing behind another woman grasping her neck. In the background two figures carry a dead body in front of a castle. The words "a stylish adult vampire movie" are on the top.

The current version doesn't use live action, but this amazing The Sims style animation...
A cgi man hangs from a shelving unit. He is very concerned. A cgi man raises an eyebrow while wearing a denim jacket.

Drama.
Photo of the sky. It's a dark blue with sweeping clouds in gray, peach, and white reaching out across it. There are trees below that are turning yellow with the season change.

Sam Jaffe always understood the assignment.
Still of Sam Jaffe looking out of frame in horror and concern. He is an older white man with gray hair and a beard. His hair stands straight up like he stuck his finger in an electrical socket.

Dean Stockwell looks like this in this movie.
Still of Dean Stockwell in The Dunwich Horror (1970). He is a white man in his 30s. He has fluffy light brown hair and a very obviously fake mustache and sideburns.

Up next... The Dunwich Horror (1970). It has Dean Stockwell and Sandra Dee. And seems to have been an attempt to make an American Giallo. I can't stand Lovecraft, but let's do this.
Movie poster for The Dunwich Horror (1970). A woman is attacked by a monstrous face that has snake-like creatures for hair.
