@manmademoon.bsky.social is it true we're getting Rogue Trooper news in April? 👀

It's mad we're getting a new Exorcist sequel (er, Trilogy) next week, and I feel like no one is talking about it?? I was a huge fan of Blumhouse's outrageous Splatter-Myers trilogy, but I can't think of any material unsuited to them more than Friedkin's Exorcist.

Seated! I love these films, and the reviews for this one are surprisingly excellent. Excited for some Shakespearian Tobin Bell and some eyeball-sucking traps. 🪤⛓️🪚👁

I was scrolling the news on X and came across an image so haunting I'm legit feeling quite panicky. Seemed like a bot account and was pornagraphic content. I just dunno man. Why are people like this. Jesus fucking Christ.

I wish there was more buzz here, but beyond a few posters regularly posting BSky is kinda dead, no? 😬

eXistenZ finished. Moving onto Cronenberg's Crash.

Now Watching!

Posters for The Exorcist: Believer, The Creator, Saw X, and Thanksgiving in the cinema today, too. Not the most original fare, but I'm excited for all of 'em, pretty much.

A Haunting in Venice is fine. Some spooky fun to be had, but mostly a tried and tested formula rigidly adhered to. Branagh is having a laaaaaugh as Poirot.

Pay day tomorrow. I must own this.

Talk to Me fucked me up. Goddamn.

I'm hoping to squeeze in a showing of Talk to Me today after a hike. High hopes for this one. I've heard a particular scene is TERRIFYING.

Sold out screening of Oppenheimer in a beautiful little single screen village cinema in Belgium last night. Great crowd, great projection. Took a while to get in, as it only had a single staff member manning the tickets and concessions, but what a treat.

Excited about Christopher Landon helming Scream VII. The first Happy Death Day and Freaky are terrific fun, I've lost count of how many times I've watched both. It'd be nice to see the series return to the slightly creepier tone of Craven's first two entries, but I trust Landon to deliver.

Sometimes, I think about "Greats" line in Star Trek Discovery season one, from about 2018, name dropping Elon Musk as one of histories great innovators. I'm rewatching it now and the line is so fucking ridiculous. Very bad look.

Finally caught an episode of Bad Sisters, which wasn't for me at all, unfortunately, but it looks gorgeous and Sharon Horgan, what a star.

Horror Building Blocks: What are yours?

Castle Rock, a Hulu show some might not even remember, landed with a bit of wet fart in season one. Finally getting around to season two, and it's very, very good. Lizzie Caplan is a terrific Annie Wilkes, and the tone is considerably pulpier, much closer to King's work.

I'm a big DGG Halloween apologist. In fact I think Ends is the best Halloween since H3. But this Exorcist Believer trailer is doing nothing for me. I'll be there opening weekend, but it doesn't look any different than the million Possession movies we've had in the last 10 years.

to be fair, matt gaetz has been a barbie fan since he was 17. you can search "matt gaetz 17 year old" to find out more

I'm a sucker TV sci-fi (Star Trek TNG, DS9, Battlestar Galactica, etc), and I see the show Babylon 5 is getting a big Blu release. I've never seen it. Worth a watch, anyone recommend?

I just read that conservative groups are buying up entire auditoriums in cinemas all across America for Sound of Freedom and then donating tickets to right-wingers. These fuckers, like. They've every trick in the book. 😅 Explains the $65 million gross.

Been looking into Modular Homes in Ireland, and it's wild how inconsistent the information is. Plenty of testimonials from home owners, lots of info re: ber ratings, build cost, warranty, etc. But then there are articles there with headlines like MODULAR HOME WARNINGS ⚠️

A treat before wisdom tooth removal

Criterion Sale orders have arrived at home, apparently, and I've tomorrow off for wisdom teeth removal. Perfect timing for a couch day.

Great fun! Very much a Part One, which I'm not mad about, but it has plenty of Cruise charm, a terrific supporting cast, and some great action. Obvious at this point, but McQuarrie & Cruise are a match made I'm heaven.

Death Rider in the House of Vampires. Whatever happened to this? Verotika was the funniest thing I've seen in years, I'd give Danzig another watch.

Off to Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning - Part One. I am very, very excited.

You never know what you're going to get

Country wedding last night. 300 guests. Late night DJ. Dyin'

Avatar 2 4K disc is stacked. Nice to see some releases getting a lot of extras love for their releases.

Imelda Munster's grilling of RTÉ staff is amazing. She doesn't give them an INCH. Cuts through all the bullshit. Very impressed.

The @letterboxd.social reviews for Jim Caviezel's new movie are scary. 5 stars for being "the most important film ever made". Right.

Now Watching:

Lads, THE PRICES ON LPs. Went into Tower Records & Golden Discs for a copy of Rosalia's Motomami, and it's €39.99. Browsed a few more. Harvest Moon is €50. Ride the Lightning is €55(!)

Ten games to get to know me: Max Payne Resident Evil 2 Resident Evil 4 Elden Ring Bloodborne Metal Gear Solid Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death Friday the 13th: The Game Call of Duty: Warzone Alan Wake

Just saw a lad drive past me suuuuckin on a balloon. That's a new one.

Spending the day in A&E (I'm fine, just stomach scans), but I finally got to do the 70s movie cop thing of having €1 coffee squirted into a paper cup, and promptly grimacing with each sip

From now on I will evaluate my life by pre and post seeing Frank Oz's Little Shop of Horrors 🥺🪴 #suddenlyseymour

Has anyone used APC Logistics before? Have an LP shipped with them, and it hasn't moved in 6 days. Huh.

I finished Rosalia's Motomami today, and as a whole, it's a 10/10 album. So many bangers, and the track G3 N15 is gorgeous. I'm a big fan now.

Vibe check for #filmsky

Internet Archive has a copy of Frederick Wiseman's film, Welfare. French subs, and it's not amazing quality, but it's hard to find if you don't have Kanopy, so just an FYI if you've been looking.

I love scary stuff now, but I watched Scream on video when I was 10 or so, and I was so fucking upset after it. Like kids killing kids tf

Couldn't go nuts on the B&N Criterion sale, but delighted I could snag these three, especially as the BFI release of Targets is delayed again.

Minding this gal for the weekend. She was out of sorts this morning when her owners left, but she's settled. She's a great movie watching pal, as she watches the screen, and even sighs at the bad parts!

i heard Elon Musk had 44 billion dollars removed so he could blow himself
