This past weekend, the Basement Boys welcomed two of the Nightmare Sisters, Brinke Stevens and Michelle Bauer, to Sioux Falls for a screening of #SororityBabesintheSlimeballBowlORama at the State Theatre! 📽 Check out the full Q&A here 👉 youtu.be/tZykrvQnvbk #horror #horrorsky #screamqueens

If J.K. Rowling had fucked a kid or said the N-word, this wouldn't even be a discussion. So if you ever wonder why the trans community doesn't feel like anyone has their backs *gestures wildly at Bluesky today*

I’m just saying, if you’re an actor who took a role in a series based on the works of a transphobe who uses her immense wealth to fund anti-trans legislation internationally, I don’t give a single fuck about people saying mean things to you online. Speaking frankly, you deserve it.

I don’t need third-party validation to love what I love, it’s just that all the gymnastics around “it’s not horror” seem exhausting and sad. Be who you are! Live your truth!

Good rule of thumb: If someone ever says something isn't a horror movie, then it probably actually is.

Sam wrote some thoughts on The Last Drive-In and the impact @therealjoebob123.bsky.social and @darcythemailgirl.bsky.social had on him and the Mutant Fam as a whole. Free to anyone. The Drive-In Will Never Die.

An alternate title for this collection is EEEEEVVVVVVIIILLLLLLLL. @badhandbooks.bsky.social

A retrospective review of one of the best horror remakes of the aughts dropped on our Patreon this week:👇👇👇 www.patreon.com/posts/149345...

Stop with this “we’re in Nazi Germany” stuff. The Nazi’s got their playbook from US. There were things we did to black and brown communities that Nazi’s wouldn’t EVEN TOUCH because it was so over the line. This is America. Know your history. Fight against the injustice. Resist.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

Jacob Frey: "To ICE -- get the fuck out of Minneapolis"

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."

On this week's episode, @oneofmanysteves.bsky.social welcomes Sam Lenz from the Screams From the Basement podcast to talk about Jean Rollin's classic erotic horror, 1980's Fascination! Mysterious meetings, bandits, naughty/psychotic chambermaids, and a big scythe! rss.com/podcasts/bea...

I always forget about this part

Who controls what IP isn't what's at play with this new merger: it's about who gets your attention & dollars. It means fewer shows & fewer movies as not to step on each other's dicks. 1/3 of Hollywood is already out of work from past consolidation. How many more voices will they run out of town?

With it being December and all, it’s time for me to remind everyone that Fred Claus is better than all three Santa Clause movies combined.

We have a great chat on The Bad Signal for ya this week!

Stephen Miller looks like what happens when an abortion doesn’t take…

It’s real! The first issue of The End Times started showing up in mailboxes today. For a limited time, you can still subscribe: badhandbooks.com/preorders/th...

This was a fun chat about a rad little novella that Casey and I enjoyed immensely! Check it out!

Cannot believe we are getting to play this movie the day after Thanksgiving, mere hours after Sioux Falls biggest parade of the year. Get your bucket of chicken and vomit bag ready! 🍗🤢

Great episode hitting your ears tomorrow…

Revisiting Predator, and I just gotta say, if I was ever in Dutch’s position…

Part of my challenge with getting the word out on THE END TIMES is social media ads--Facebook in particular--have been hobbled by swarms of bots and/or MAGA psychos on boosted posts, eating up my budget. It's ineffective and unpleasant. When you share the posts organically, it helps a lot.

"But know that she’s an outsider in the community of North End. She traveled here from out East, and she has secrets she brings with her…” @benjaminpercy.bsky.social on Claudia Inez Bachman (Stephen King) and THE END TIMES. Read all about it. Subscribe. www.forbes.com/sites/joshwe...

Reminder that they're paying Campbell properly only after the studio disgustingly fired Melissa Barrera over her statements against genocide, which then led to Jenna Ortega quitting the franchise, so they were out their two leads.

Even putting the Melissa Barrera of it all aside, Scream 7 looks like hot garbage. No fucking thanks.

So here's something cool that you might not have heard about. We have distribution to bookstores all over North America. So if you see our books at B&N or your local indie, BUY THEM. If you don't see them, ask for them!

With an upcoming release from @badhandbooks.bsky.social, I couldn't pass up returning to The Bad Signal 😈 We discussed the rerelease of NO GODS FOR DROWNING, coming March 3rd with a beautiful new cover by Anna Chiara Stagi, the forming of its noir-inspired world, and much more! 🔪🌊

@haileypiperfights.bsky.social returns to The Bad Signal to discuss her novel No Gods For Drowning, a neo-noir-horror-fantasy mashup. We discuss creative freedom, wearing influences on your sleeve, and chat about A Game in Yellow and Teenage Girls Can Be Demons, her most recent published works!

Hullo. I've illustrated games, comics, books, albums, magazines, etc. Been an illustrator since age 13. (And a lunatic since birth) The world needs enchantment, and I'm here to do my best to provide it. If you have a project I'd be suited for in 2026, I'd love to talk with you. thomassbrown.com

[with my full chest]: “Fuuuuuuuuck Gavin Newsom with a rusted spork!”

"anti-AI people should just learn more about it" motherfucker I know so much about it, that's why I'm anti-AI

This show is one of my favorite things I get to do, because it allows me to have awesome conversations with great people like @brackenmacleod.bsky.social. This is a great episode for y’all to hop onboard the Bad Signal!

Frankenhooker downtown tonight!!!

One of my favorites from Fantastic Fest. Campy, fun, and extremely heartfelt. Enjoyed the hell out of it.

@benjaminpercy.bsky.social joins The Bad Signal to discuss The End Times, a monthly newspaper subscription about a town surviving post-apocalypse. Ben discusses the inspiration for The End Times, how @stephenking.bsky.social got involved as a contributor, and working with @badhandbooks.bsky.social!

Absolutely adored this doc. It’s never too late to pick up a new passion.🖤

Conservatives today arguing over how this "poor, broken, mentally disturbed, loner, cis-het, conservative kid" got so radicalized

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Want to learn the title of the upcoming GRIM DEATH book? That news breaks in the latest episode of The Bad Signal.

NIRA news and other unspeakably cool things from @badhandbooks.bsky.social , @jsuretteacheson.bsky.social and @tomsnig.bsky.social , innit!?

What a fun introduction to Coffin Joe. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam -Spendy

Coffin Joe at that poor headless bastard’s funeral: #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam

Coffin Joe: I’ll find whoever did this. Also Coffin Joe: *did this* #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam
