I know you are a Dracula guy, but for me, Freaks is my favorite Browning. It's such a stellar blend of unsettling imagery and horror with more sympathy and care than I think anyone else would have given the subject matter.

This is a good reminder that I still need to get the Blu-ray!

THE HAUNTING OF JULIA (1977), Richard Loncraine

A devastatingly lonely slowcore tale of survival after trauma where the inability to corporeally connect draws a bereaved mother deeper into a stately Victorian's mysteries as she's preyed upon by a demon with an angel's face.

...I guess that's the word I'm using now for digital rentals. Everyone in my circle will NOT be thanking you. 😂

If you buy my latest book, NADIA AND AIDAN, not only do you get a good read, but I get the dopamine rush of seeing a sale. You can call it your good deed for October. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DPKXRP16

I just watched a 15 minute YouTube walk through and it started like 8 Eyes, turned into Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and ended with a romantic night out for old man Dracula and Mina!

Fuck The Legend of Zelda! This is peak NES!

Is...is that Grandpa Munster? And what the heck is the Prince of Persia doing in that middle vignette? I need to look this game up.

...or cut back on the booze myself. 😅

I have so few options for genuine ethnic cuisine in VT that when I was in Connecticut recently and found a restaurant that served typical American fare with a separate Greek section I was thrilled!

Until the spanakopita arrived and was basically a microwaved quiche. 🤦

Just read: Bolt: Dead Man's Bounty, by Cort Martin.

The 2nd in the Bolt Adult Western series is...fine. Copy-paste sex, decent action, and three mini-plots that never quite connect. It's a bit middling and lacks personality, but it's better than a Gunsmith novel.

Digital cover to Dead Man's Bounty (since I can't find a scan of the original paperback), featuring a cel-shaded Bolt blasting at the reader with his six-shooter while a lady stands on a porch in the background.

ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK (1972), Sergio Martino

Haunted by visions of murder, Jane's post-miscarriage grief is a puzzle to be solved, presented placebos for a deciduous dropping of depressed mood as manifold as the variegated foliage around her in this atypical giallo gem.

I will never dispute this film's quality. But I also suspect I will never watch it again. It's a tough one. 😬

FATAL FRAME (2014), Mari Asato

Taken on its own outside of the titular source game this haunting Carmilla meets Picnic at Hanging Rock aptly weaves an eerie, distinct spell of lover's pact suicides, lesbian jesus christ superstar hysteria & secrets drowned by uncanny baptism.

I'm on the 'Gram and Green Archer are the real deal. Not just putting their money where their mouth is, but highlighting vital books that lousy people didn't want you to read.

Great comics. Strong spirit.

Not all heroes wear capes.

...but I think these guys do.

That's a nuanced point!

Probably in serial format I'd have been a lot more forgiving of them because I wouldn't have still been in my seat waiting for them to get to wherever the heck they were going.

Well...I do have a different set of eyes than some at the movies. And, y'know, the villain literally wore sequins. 😅

The only thing that disappointed me was the constant travel scenes. So much walking, driving, and horseback riding when I wanted more flexing and punching.

Had a good time with it.

So...for the last two years 100% of the books I read were ebooks. This year, I just pulled out my first paperback in I don't know how long.

I'm excited. But I'm scared my crummy eyes can't handle the font size.

Ebooks aren't lesser than physical books for those of us with bad eyesight.
