I’m officially a great uncle, so yep, I’m fucking old.

Mike Flanagan did something much harder than making a good movie. He made a great movie that simultaneously adapts a book and movie with major story differences. DOCTOR SLEEP is a movie that I hope will be considered a classic in 10 years or so.

I’ve always had a soft spot for DRAGNET

My buddy for the day

It’s been along time since I’ve seen Ravenous, but I remember liking it.

If any friends I interact with on here would like it, I have a digital code for The Descent.

My 4k steelbook of THE DESCENT came this week. I was initially disappointed that Lionsgate was putting it out, but it looks great

Kari was out of town for work this week and Goblin was so happy she got back last night. She works from home and he spends all day in her office while she works, so he get lonely when she’s gone during the day.

Working in Keenseburg, CO today, so there was one additional sorehead.

Not the best photo, but the northern lights were visible with the naked eye here the last 2 nights

Frankenstein was just a beautiful movie. It made me misty eyed a few times.

Celebrating “Frankenstein Friday”with the new Guillermo del Toro movie, as the holiday demamds.

I spent my day off hiking to Jewel Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park

It should be illegal to text a person with anxiety “please call me immediately!” without first stating that nothing is wrong.

RIP. I thought I we had more time, but he gave me one more Halloween. He went out on his terms though, from double compound fractures due to 60 mph wind.

My new job has really improved my quality of life. Today my boss asked how many hours I had worked for the week and when I told him, he told me to take tomorrow off. So I’m eating dinner at a horror bar, then seeing The Black Phone 2 and getting up and going for a hike in the mountains tomorrow.

The was the finished yard display for Halloween this year

Still Halloween weekend in our house 🎃

My boy

Happy Halloween all! “Death is but a doorway, time is but a window. I’ll be back.”

Things my partner has to put up with. We stayed out late for Halloween and have our party today. I got up and ran and seemed extra chipper and she asked how I have so much energy. I respond that I have “the power of Satan running though me” and then did a karate kick and left the room.

I helped my favorite bar in Denver, The Crypt, put together their giant demon yesterday for Halloween since I’ve done it quite a few times for our yard.

Halloween round 1 at The Crypt in Denver. Round 2 is tonight at our party.

Waiting for the trick or treaters

It’s almost that time kids. Trick r’ Treat is the perfect Halloween movie.

Full size candy ready to go. I have a backup bag of fun size because we had 150 trick or treaters in 1 hour last year and I had to give out granola bars.

Things you will see in my house right now

To celebrate Halloween being 2 days away, here’s a video of John Carpenter playing the theme to Christine live from this last weekend.

The new @arrowvideo.bsky.social 4K of IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS just arrived and I’m watching it immediately.

Watching V/H/S 94 because I need more Raatma in my life

Maybe my favorite shot in the movie 🎃

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you have friends struggling through the shutdown, consider inviting them over for a family dinner this week. Make too much. Insist they take leftovers home. Some folks can't say they need help out loud but will appreciate the kindness.

Back home watching seasonally appropriate movies

Photos from the John Carpenter concert.

Getting to see John Carpenter live, performing his scores, is just such an awesome thing for me. An amazing ending to a great weekend in LA.

We had the absolute best time at Halloween Horror Nights. The Poltergeist house was our favorite. There was so much to see. There was a Friday the 13th themed house, Terrifier, Nintendo World, and I drank a Duff beer.

It’s overgrown, but we stopped by Nancy’s house from A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET

In LA for the weekend and our Airbnb is the guest house in the back yard of the house from SAY ANYTHING

Annual trip to the Denver Botanic Garden for the Garden Glow, featuring a pumpkin yeti, cyclops, and Loch Ness Monster.

My boy

The first R Rated horror movie I ever saw in the theater. THE BLOB is one of best remakes of all time.

Well this is embarrassing, but necessary. Insurance just doesn't cover enough. gofund.me/8f49a0c27

Yes I do, in fact, read Sutter Cane. I just started the novelization.

The new @arrowvideo.bsky.social 4k of CREEPSHOW 2 is stunning. This one is a little more uneven than the original, but The Raft is a great segment.

My drink required a shoe as a deposit

I have a cut on my palm from work and a random woman at the bar asked if was stigmata. I said unlikely, god and I are on a break.

Even the local horror bar gets taken over by Spirit Halloween this time of year.

Fun Halloween drinks

The juice of the netherworld
