Some kind of librarian. Reader and watcher of art films, gutter trash, and other sordid tales.

Went to see GOOD BOY, came back with a Michael Myers popcorn bucket.

A popcorn bucket in the shape of Halloween II's Michael Myers sits on a concession stand counter. Blood tears run from the eye holes. Next to the popcorn bucket is a giant popcorn container filled with popcorn.

Woke up feeling autumnal so I had to do the thing and go pick up the @terrorvisionvids.bsky.social's blu of WNUF Halloween Special / Out There Halloween Mega Tape. Big spooky season vibes just looking at that cover.

A hand holding a blu ray copy of WNUF Halloween Special / Out There Halloween Mega Tape. It's a black slipcover with a UFO, a flying saucer with a beam over a graveyard. It feels autumnal and spooky in a retro way.

It just seems like your weekend would be best served by taking a stroll (however you define "stroll") to your local bookstore, browsing for a bit, & chatting with a bookseller about what you should read next.

Watching Walerian Borowczyk's The Margin on Criterion Channel. Sylvia Kristel. Joe Dallesandro. Everyone looking gorgeous and so Eurotrashy.

Movie still of Sylvia Kristel and Joe Dallesandro. Both dressed in black, she in a black dress and coat, he in a black suit. A cigarette hangs out of the corner of his mouth. They both look amazing.

New @bleedingskull.bsky.social VHS mixtape just showed up for spooky season-- PHANTASMATAPES!

A hand holding a shrink wrapped Blu ray in front of plants-- on its cover PHANTASMTAPES, the text wrapping around a face with half bloodied vampire teeth and the other screaming.

A duck with neon green glowing eyes and a mutated beak. The subtitles read: (screams), (Kevin laughing)

A brunette haired woman looks out of frame. The subtitles read: 'Damn duck must have got into some bath salts.'

Picked up a few things from @terrorvisionvids.bsky.social this past weekend at HorrorHound and just put in one I've had my eye on for a bit-- DANCE OR DIE. I think I just fell into a garish blue dream of glitter, stage make-up, and amazing subtitles. Thanks Terror Vision gang!
