Episode 1004… “This?” the man behind the counter says. “Why, this is Madame Painte.” Madame Painte: For Sale, by John Langan Narrator: Ian Gordon Host: Graeme Dunlop Audio: Chelsea Davis pseudopod.org/2025/11/21/p...

Everyone's a critic.

Look, I'm sorry 'bout yer fish, but if you come for the dog... Also, please don't take my criticism of your muffins so harshly, Mrs. Coolidge.

[Ongoing thread] New Stargate TV show We knew it was coming! "Amazon MGM Studios has greenlighted another series based on popular MGM IP, giving a series order to Stargate for Prime Video. The new installment in the classic sci-fi franchise comes from Martin Gero, a Stargate veteran and...."

I'm sure it won't surprise you that Radiana, the "mechanical man," was not an actual robot - there was a small woman inside operating the robot. Rumor has it, after 3 years working together, she declined a marriage proposal from magician Professor John Popjie.

Pan's Labyrinth actor Maribel Verdú stars in UNDER YOU FEET, a Spanish horror fantasy described as “Rosemary’s Baby meets Hansel & Gretel” from the producer of The Platform:

I don't think I need to know about Coolidge's muffins. I should be delving into Queen Marie's recipes.

There's more than one way to report a story. That gnu was right, no news is good news. Good news is deadly!

I'm sure it was all above board. That's barely $1.9 million, inflation-adjusted. Probably pocket change for our mysterious banker who definitely did nothing untoward.

Doesn't quite have the same ring to it as "Riiiiicola!" At least it has an astonishing promptitude.

Imagine a dimension as vast as space & as timeless as infinity...the middle ground between light and shadow. A dimension where you must tell people you want seedless raisins. This is where things went wrong. P&G thought they were helping, but you know how these things go. 24 pies men like...

I can't stop thinking of that zephyr-like pressure.

Constant vigilance.

Today we have a blanket of snow. Sometimes, it's a blanket of paper.

This guy ain't going to St. Ives, that I can tell you.

Does your coal hole look like this? Could be the large lump.

I'm embarking on my Pluribus journey.

This was too on the nose for Final Destination Bloodlines. Pour one out for Garner Rose, who did it his way, sort of.

"Maybe it’ll forget me. Maybe something else will take its attention. Maybe it’s time to run." We're excited to share an excerpt from @angelaslatter.bsky.social's witchy new fantasy novel A Forest, Darkly!

The pole is out. Parachute dropping is all the rage.

Conspiracies, cults, and UFOs. I can't believe I haven't watched this before. Let's do this.

I'm not disappointed by what I've seen of Talamasca: The Secret Order through three episodes. I gather that's not the reigning opinion. It's possible I just really like Elizabeth McGovern.

I'm sure it works. How could something called a physcomotrope not work?

Jurassic World Rebirth is a wild mess of a movie. I want to read some meeting notes.

Come. Be with us for Tobe Hooper's LIFEFORCE! New 4K Restoration - Playing this Friday & Saturday at Midnight + Encore Screening next Monday November 10th at 4:15pm Get Tickets Now: musicboxtheatre.com/films-and-ev...

This is a horror film. You know how those folks are. "Some of 'em have queer narrow heads with flat noses and bulgy, starry eyes that never seem to shut, and their skin ain't quite right. Rough and scabby, and the sides of the necks are all shriveled or creased up." Wrong Turn: Starboard Slaughter

I spoke with Novel Suspects recently. Thank you so very much for this lovely conversation. 🖤🏙️ A Conversation with Cynthia Pelayo, A Prolific Voice in the New Wave of Horror www.novelsuspects.com/qa/a-convers...

Trying the demo for The Legend of Khiimori. Bond with your horse in 13th-century Mongolia? Hell, yeah. The demo is short, but charming. Keep on steppe'n

It's always a *!⅞?$-& delay.

Been there, friend. Saturday night's alright for fighting, but it's also for a large edible and eating leftovers straight out of the fridge like Jennifer Check after a hot live music show. There's more than one way to get a little action in.

Happy Halloween. Stay sharp.

I didn't need to start playing this. That music hypnotizes me. I am now a sleeper agent for Pac-Land.

Damn, Nancy, that's some cozy scorched earth. "Some morning the obituary file Will bear your name, and knowing you are dead I will spoon jam and turn the browning toast And pour my coffee carefully, and smile."

I can't believe I'm watching this.

Carl's seersucker suit was really killin' it.

...to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before...

Definitely a giraffe with cotton candy on its head. Please proceed. Tater tots are in the back. Help yourself.

A wish for wings that work.

True crime podcasting is going to get weird. Sit and marinate on this in private for a bit, Allison. You should not, under any circumstances, find a guru to help you. Lone Star Shark 3 is on. I know that's a better use of my time.

I'm playing the UMIGARI demo. It engrossed me with its weirdness. Here's your tuna, friend. "a first-person harpoon fishing game set in the foggy waters off the coast of Japan." "Alone at sea, the more you explore, the stranger the fish become."

Barker called me up one night and without preamble said "It's opinions, not onions. Not onions. This is Clive Barker. I've been trying to track down and stop this error in editions for decades. OPINIONS."

I'm going to give this demo a try.

I've opened a window for "fresh air." I don't want dirty air to annoy my wife. My life choices resulted in an extended "moo" sound when the window opens. I've left the window open to avoid more mooing. I may need more fresh air. It's now 45F in the house, which I'm sure isn't annoying anyone.

There's a commercial for Great Wolf Lodge that really mind-warp me. It uses the tune from Chic's "Le Freak" with repeated shouting of "Wolf out!" *funky riff* "Wolf out!"

Look at this guy with his job and four personal trainers! Must be nice...

Flatliners 2017 is a movie. That's about it. Reading the comments on this trailer is a form of time travel. Please take whatever precautions are necessary.

The most interesting parts of Birdeater are when the closed captioning insists they're saying "box party" instead of "buck's party."

“A golden light fell on them from the left. He thought it was the sun...It was from the Lion that the light came. No one ever saw anything more terrible or beautiful.” C.S. Lewis, The Horse and his Boy

Two on a Guillotine. Maybe not the best, but... It's got the guy who drove Herbie to pieces in the '68 El Dorado race, the hottest cop on the force, narc Jackie Parker, and Joker himself. Plus, there's guillotine action.
