I know it was unintentional, but I'm watching THE RITUAL on Kanopy's Roku app and when it got to the big moment where the possessed girl unleashes a screen shaking SCREAM while Al Pacino commands out the demon in Latin, the app crashed. Mildly effective, in all honestly.

I'm amazed at how often I think about that Police Squad joke about "This episode: The writer's barely-disguised fetish."

You know...it's a media tie-in, multi-path, erotic thriller, comedy, science fiction horror romance featuring a side character from the movie FRANKIE FREAKO. An adventure of yours that you can choose, some may say... encyclopocalypse.com/products/bet...

Maybe someone explained what the actual definition of "decimate" is, so it sounds cool but doesn't really mean as much as certain missile shooters may believe. youtube.com/clip/UgkxlqK...

My mom and I were watching Buddy Ebsen in something (Beverly Hillbillies?) and I brought up the Tin Man paint fiasco. My mother asked, "Isn't he dead?" and I said, "No." The next day we saw his obituary and it became "proof" of my mother's accidental powers. So, thanks for the running joke, Buddy.

MTV's Fear, a "scary" game show with Found Footage elements, was cancelled like 25 years ago and I still occasionally think on how much of a missed opportunity it was for MTV to not do a Found Footage movie called "The Lost Episode" where the contestants and host die, leading to the "cancellation."

Between CAINE and BALLERINA, this makes me wish that The EXPENDABLES franchise had done spin-off movies, even if they were direct to video/DVD/streaming. It's a shame I never got a WALKING TALL knockoff starring Randy Couture or Terry Crews' character Christmas having an actual Christmas adventure.

My old dog has been panting and having trouble breathing tonight. I thought she might have an infection, but she started sneezing and I saw something...and pulled a 4-inch blade of grass from her nostril. She sat, snorted, then curled down and ate a treat. Am I a veterinarian now?

Today: High 84. Tomorrow: High 47. I'm so tired.

Meaning that @tedgeoghegan.bsky.social's podcast episode of TALES FROM BEYOND THE PALE is probably near the end of March, since a character wants to steal a poster of the "new movie" RAD. Check out the ep for some good mall horror and Joe Bob Briggs. talesfrombeyondthepale.castos.com/episodes/epi...

Sincere writing isn't the easiest thing for me, but neither is losing someone I admire. So hopefully they cancel each other out and this is worthy of the man. www.fangoria.com/rest-in-peac...

@weinbergs.bsky.social Random Sharing: I was listening to the Found Footage Horror Yearbook ep, and when your guest joked about "Maybe you were a bad boss" my earbud disconnected and it took me about 30 seconds to realize you hadn't actually done a bit where you "ended" the podcast immediately.

"It was a long work week, so I'll just take an hour nap and then--" No bother finishing that. I either didn't hear or turned off the alarm. Woke up at 12:39AM. Needless to say, the work week claims another Friday night. I'll text my friends back tomorrow.

I feel like an executive at Lifetime saw the phrase, "Sexy Suicide Coach" and fired ten people for not coming up with it first.

Rocky Romero getting eliminated first continues my head canon that the Don Callis Family was only recruiting Trent and Trent alone and Rocky just keeps showing up anyway. #AEWRevolution #AEW

I just watched Wayne Brady help the Costco "Boom" guy win a pro wrestling match. What an incredibly odd, yet factually correct sentence to write. #AEW #AEWRevolution

@brianwcollins.bsky.social Random question. As a guy who reviews movie novelizations, do you ever find yourself wondering how the eventual book will handle moments you're watching on screen?

Now Watching...WHISTLE.

1. Indiana based slasher with a sewer dwelling Vietnam Vet "Rat-Jaw" claiming victims. Odd, but interesting. 2. They added it, so I put a review in from last week. 3. Really good "Parker" adaptation. 4. Incredibly enjoyable satire with many hilarious characters. #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday

My episode of Tales from Beyond the Pale is live, and I'd love for you to set aside 29 minutes today and give it a listen. I worked with an amazing cast and crew to tell a 1980s anti-capitalist horror story that's tons of fun from top to bottom. talesfrombeyondthepale.castos.com/episodes/epi...

Took a nap. Feel worse after the nap. Thus is life.

Today is the day I decided that Shane Black was the writer who added the line "Maybe I can help. I am a Veterinarian," to the script.

If I actively announce on here that WHISTLE will be my Friday the 13th movie viewing, then that means I'll actually do it, right? I think I have some bonus credit built up and can justify a $10 rental despite the fact I'm the guy who waited and subscribed to Starz because it was $12 for a year.

It's a hard life to be a part of AEW's women's division.

Do you think Robert Downey Jr ever thought about this movie while he was making DOLITTLE?

Kind of worth it just to hear Arnold's accent constantly saying the name "Christopher McQuarrie" in interviews.

Credit Karma is like, "Hey, man. Your card is at its highest balance ever," and I'm like, "Yeah, man. You see the economy? Don't worry. I'm working on it."

I wasn't home for a storm last night, so when I came home this morning, I found this. My bad?

Amusing they choose to reference Harlin's Deep Blue Sea and Die Hard 2 for the poster. "This guy has directed a killer shark movie AND a movie where a plane crashed! He's perfect for this!"

Last year on family get-together they put on Harold and the Purple Crayon and this year they put on American Underdog. Why does my family insist on exposing me to the films of Zachary Levi?

1. One of the better Found Footage films I've seen in quite some time. 2. Awful action movie, even with a weird ring of fire fight. 3. HOST style found footage with 8-bit horror video game filler. Endearing. 4. Not available to review on Letterboxd yet. Surprisingly fun Christine-inspired movie.
