Trying to think when "my" era of Sesame Street ended. Thought it was around the time that Mr. Snuffleupagus was revealed and before Elmo became prominent. Looking now, those happened literally at the same time, and a bit after I wouldn't have been watching anymore.

#buymybooks AND ONE DAY WE WILL DIE: STRANGE STORIES INSPIRED BY THE MUSIC OF NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL. Edited & published by me. Some all-time and brand-new weird fiction favorites riffing with/on songs from the catalog of the cult-fave psychedelic indie folk rock band.

RED SCORPION (Zito, 1988)

I have to say, the Wordsworth imprint is to be congratulated for the series of single author (mainly) weird fiction anthologies they published. Introduced me to a lot of good stuff. Am I missing any? #PhantomsFriday #BookChatWeekly

Any day is a good day to discover my vintage horror novel Gnelfs, which is available at a nice price in ebook or in trade paper with the original cover art restored. #amwriting www.amazon.com/Gnelf...

Crime Boss Rockay City about to break through as my top time waster. Fallout 76 was pure grind, Dead Rising 2 I have a save with all woman followers and we'll just slowly clear out casinos over and over again. Compare these with Halo Master Chief, 25 hours across like 4-5 games.

DEVIL HUNTERS (Lu, 1989)

Realized it was kinda embarrassing that I hadn't seen Invasion USA yet due to a general aversion to Chuck Norris, going to catch up on all his stuff through the 80s. The Chuck Norris Facts thing represents a generational divide for me, genuinely don't get it. Is the idea that he's a tough guy so

This may be the nadir of live action Saturday morning. Dr. Doolittle by way of the ghost of a long dead talking dog. Believed to be destroyed in a fire, which is the only appropriate way to deal with such things.

Folks this is NOT a drill, the big official long-awaited Charles Saunders biography finally has a locked-in title and release date and is open for pre-orders. www.amazon.ca/Leave-Warrio...

I talk shit, but the Maladadas at Leonards and Korean chicken at Kyochon 1991 are almost worth the flight to Honolulu.

As a kid I figured OU812 was supposed to be dirty, but talking it out doesn't track. "Oh, you ate one pussy/dick, too." Who would ever say that?

Rest in Hell Dick Cheney. Dick by name, dick by nature. Probably most remembered for A: being responsible for the deaths of a lot of people and B: shooting his friend while hunting. With friends like that etc

Today I learned that Andy Warhol watched George Romero’s living dead trilogy and after Day of the Dead (1985) wanted to become a zombie! Tom Savini obliged with the zombie make-up, assisted by Greg Nicotero. Then Christopher Makos took the photo portraits.

This is the City. Los Angeles, California. The Capital of Lucille Ball Street Art.

There have been so many random HK movies that have, in the past few years, gotten HD remasters. I’m not talking about the big “canon” films. I mean the real deep cuts that you start wading through after you’ve seen all the big ‘uns— the hardcore shit. Anyway, I’m rewatching “Fury” (1988).

Lou Albano with the most comically obvious blade job I have perhaps ever seen

Reading an account of strange rains (fish, frogs, etc). This does seem to be something that happens, but reading closer nobody saw anything fall, they just notice things on the ground. The worst are accounts of raining worms, because how else would a worm be on the ground after a storm.

Jumborg Ace (1973) Episode 42

#NowWatching The Vineyard (1989 Bill Rice and James Hong) it is time. Time for HONG! Time for WONG!

"Now let's take a look at some chilling scenes from "Dr. Tongue's House of Cats!" Awoooo!"

Before you could easily get Old Time Radio Shows online, you had be lucky enough to have them on record or cassette. This is an amazing boxset of Great Radio Horror Shows that was released in 1975 that I try and listen to every year.

Well, can't ride most roller coasters any more, unless they're super smooth with low gs. My brain is rattling around loose in my skull as it is, can't handle the slightest jar. Went indoor snow tubing and there was a tiny bump at the end, but it left me with a headache after a couple turns, same

Having an 80s SOV double feature on tubi tonight - the McPherson Tape and Sledgehammer

Have just learned about an 1970s Italian TV variety show, all set in a Satanic underworld called Stryx, which featured sketches alongside musical performances from the likes of Grace Jones and Amanda Lear, accompanied by witches, demons, cat-people and lots of wild animals. Here's a taste.

Did you know that Jimmy Sangster, the Welsh screen writer best known for for his work on Hammer horror films, also penned nearly a dozen novels? Including this one, PRIVATE l aka THE SPY KILLER (1967), one in a two book series. Must be amongst the only book cover design photographed in a toilet.

The Japanese version of Lam Nai-choi's The Cat one of the great cinematic curiosities. Its director, Mio Hani, released a spoken word album about her 11 cats when she was 8 years old. youtu.be/wm03nlDQF3c?si…
