Just a dude who loves being a dad and who chills out with horror movies and TTRPGs. Currently stuck in the middle of the country and pining for the northeast.

Yes! My daughter has been watching Gravity Falls on loop for the past 6 months, and something like this would maybe convince her to try something new.

Great flick, fun characters. I never did get around to watching the sequel, though I'm sure I have it on bluray somewhere.

The combination of a cold, briny sea and dead wet leaves on the wind. Now that I live 1400 miles from the New England coast, I could spend hours on an October night in Salem just enjoying that smell when I visit.

Their brief cameo in the D&D movie was a cinema highlight for my inner geek.

Very cool. I found a small stack of CDs that I'd burned between 16-18 years ago, and have been listening to them in my car the past few weeks. Her song "Down by the Water" was on 3-4 of the discs, along with a lot of other songs that were pretty downbeat. Must've been a rough year for me.

I really need to sit down and do a complete rewatch of that series. It was far ahead, in terms of storytelling, than most TV.

I agree; I would have liked to see some more build-up around the big bad, but there were so many characters. Still, it was a movie that we all enjoyed as a family, so I can complain too much.

Then how about K.D Lang's version of Hallelujah, which was considered the best version by Leonard Cohen.

The tension that grows within the viewer as the funeral procession starts. You just know something is going down, but are still not prepared for how it does.

I'm a 48 y.o dad and horror-kid, who also worked with emotionally disturbed kids for 15 years; so Jade Daniels is like scientifically engineered to be a character I invest my hopes in.

I just finished "My Heart is a Chainsaw" a few days ago, and immediately jumped online, hoping there would be a follow-up. Imagine my joy when I saw there were already 2 in print.

When I first met my now wife, she told me Hudson Hawk was one of her favorite movies. That's when I knew she was silly enough to maybe spend the rest of my life with her.

Perhaps you misunderstood? They do not want you to buy him A piranha, as they are a social species that group into schools. You need to get him a dozen piranha, so that they can thrive in a setting with others of their kind.

Not too long ago, my mother-in-law tossed out 2 ice cube trays of my sofrito because she had no clue what it was. So, thank you for posting and reminding me that I do need to make more.

Today I went to my local barbecue place to eat my feelings, and ordered the 3-meat platter. Is this an acceptable substitute for a 3-sandwich lunch?

That... was one hell of a ride. As someone who worked with traumatized kids for 15 years, and as someone who has seen all but maybe 3-5 of the movies referenced in the book, Jade's voice was as clear as could be from page 1. I loved this book, and can't wait to share it with others. Thank you.

@sgj.bsky.social I started reading My Heart is a Chainsaw a little earlier tonight, but didn't know if I would dig it or not until I read Kane Hodder's name used as a verb on page 37. Now I know I want to take my time and really enjoy the hell out of this one.

I love this time of year, because when I get home from my overnight shift at 6:30 am, every yard on my street has one or two of these little ones.

I managed to catch it in the theater a few years ago as part of a werewolf marathon with Wolfen, American Werewolf in London, and Dog Soldiers.

My brother was very much all about this behavior as a little kid, which led to my parents creating a policy of the non-birthday brother also getting a single gift to distract them on their siblings' special day.

Maiko kind of looks like some sort of Yokai whose entire existence is dedicated to birthing chaos and punishing "Morning people". I respect and fear her, while also wishing her many happy birthdays.

I'd throw Citizen-X in that list as well. He's a supporting character, but has a hell of an impact on a film with an already stellar cast.

Being a horror kid all my life, the Donald Sutherland film I've seen most often was Invasion of the Body Snatchers. But my favorite film of his, hands down, was Citizen-X.

They're about as intimidating as a bunch of 1989 Hugo Boss mannequins.

A few years back I was able to use Fallout 4 to show my daughter where I'd seen my first concert. "So my seat was about here, but without the junkie raiders".

I've found that 2-3 episodes of either Bob's Burgers or Gravity Falls does the trick.

Yeah, very well made, but I had to throw on some really upbeat animation to cleanse the palate after that.

It's like Moebius storyboarded a Cronenberg idea, and then handed it off to Studio Ghibli to animate. I'm all in after 2 episodes.

Muftak spends 4 hours every payday combing through old stacks of vinyl in the basement of a music store you've never even heard of.
