In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice. KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond. His reply was a doozy.

Really? Ugh. Mind you, I donʼt think Iʼve taken the bus 2 the mall since they re‑routed the 160 bus 2 go down Dix instead of Jefferson∕Biddle thru Wyandotte & got rid of the stop a block from our house… but @ least ʼtil now, I still had the option if I wanted 2 walk 25 min. 2 Fort 2 catch the 125. …

Yo, @weather.bsky.social / weather.com – Yʼall need to keep a closer eye on the adds slipping‑through on your Android Radar app. 😐👎 ♥️ the desktop widget though! 🙂👍

Working on a post and just learned that "zombies eat brains" only goes back to "Return of the Living Dead" in 1985. Before that, they just ate flesh. Put another way: brains are a zombie fad diet from the 1980s

: Better than №2 – creative portrayal of what a quarantined‑off England would be like; use of old movie & audio clips as they set‑off on their journey shroud it with a menacing air… It’s quite sad, but overall I liked it → 🦇🦇🦇🦇¼ · i📱 · Hallowe’en #HorrorMovieMarathon · #DevilsNight

: They REALLY jumped the gun trying 2 re‑populate… 👍: Theme of bad people continues + very good reason 2 save the kids, + more realistic CGI than lotta movies 2day manage, but 👎: events just so unbelievable, & eye gouge scene’s obv. fan service. – Enh 🫤 → 🦇🦇¹¹⁄₁₂ · Hallowe’en #HorrorMovieMarathon

#31DaysofHalloween #HorrorMovieMarathon Night 29 w/ @jjjennnnn.com 28 WEEKS LATER (2007) All of the scenes that didn't need to be in the 1st movie are in this one. Every character does the dumbest thing possible. More disaster movie than horror, even Hawkeye & Heimdall can't save them. 🦇🦇

Also:

: been 20 yrs. since I 1ˢᵗ saw it – Some of the action sequences & bad decisions survived are a stretch 2 believe, but it’s 4givable given all its many merits, inc. how ♥️‑wrenching & genuinely stressful it is + 4 making zombies en‑vogue again → 🦇🦇🦇🦇⁷⁄₁₆ · OCT. ②⑧ Hallowe’en #HorrorMovieMarathon · 😤🧟

#31DaysofHalloween #HorrorMovieMarathon Night 28 w/ @jjjennnnn.com 28 DAYS LATER (2002) Four zombie apocalypse survivors escape the city in a London cab. Danny Boyle's film has characters you care about, infection, fast zombies, & evil survivors. The seminal work of the modern zombie era. 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇

Based‑on an 1842 short story, a movie about medieval Satanists😯 – it felt very ’60s though. Many liberties were taken w/ the plot, compared 2 the orig. material, but I appreciated the smattering of references to other Poe works + has very cool end‑credits! → 🦇🦇🦇 · 🩰 Hallowe’en #HorrorMovieMarathon 🎭

#31DaysofHalloween #HorrorMovieMarathon Night 26 w/ @jjjennnnn.com THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH (1964) One of Roger Corman's best Poe adaptations. Vincent Price at his sinister best as Prince Prospero a proud disciple of the Devil. Beautiful garish color and great cinematography & wardrobe. 🦇🦇🦇🦇

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.
