My wife ( @atiyanova.bsky.social ) made me make an account here, there’s a gun to my head.

So uh, hey bluesky (she told me to say that); I’m Kodey, a horror-ish artist working mostly with ballpoint pen, which you can see a sample of below. Honestly, half my life right now is made of horror movies🐒

this one doin numbers on mastodon but bsky doesn't let me have enough characters
@amagire@mastodon.social elevated horror: what if you're grieving your loved one TOO MUCH? folk horror: what if a child's disability could EAT PEOPLE? supernatural horror: what if your childhood trauma could EAT PEOPLE? psychological horror: what if your adult trauma could EAT PEOPLE? body horror: what if your gender dysphoria could EAT PEOPLE? slasher horror: what if a random guy was trying to kill you, instead of a cop or your boyfriend?

Just rewatched Identity with my wife, and I’m realizing more and more just how much of a crush I have on John Cusack, like dayum

Anyone have any good offbeat horror movie recommendations? Especially stuff with that cozy, small town vibe (maybe coastal too? That shit hits). Looking for movie candidates to watch with my wife on halloween

That sounds like a great evening to me, and maybe throw in Event Horizon too just for kicks

Criterion Channel has both In the Mouth of Madness (1994) and Possession (1981) if you want to do a “Sam Neill Having a Bad Time” double feature

Apparently every post from me is a 'hey, sorry I haven't posted in a while' but uhh, yeah; horror movie update time:

1. The Day of the Beast (1995, dir. Álex de la Iglesia)
2. The Vourdalak (2023, dir. Adrien Beau
3. Cure (1997, dir. Kiyoshi Kurosawa)

All highly recommended depending on your mood.
Movie poster for The Vourdalak. Depicts the bust of a man with very pale makeup emotionlessly looking towards the viewer; he is wearing a blue overcoat, and seems to have a white kerchief around his neck. A hairless, humanoid creature is behind the man, grabbing him by the head and shoulder and appears to be biting the man's neck. Poster for the movie Cure. Highly detailed closeup of the right side of a man's face, seemingly mesmerized by something out of view. There is a glint in his eye that appears to be a reflection of a small flame from possibly a candle. Poster for the movie The Day of the Beast. High contrast colors; bright red background, with the title typed out in a deep black on the top half of the image in a scratchy font. Between the 'S' and 'T' is a bright white silhouette of a horned, humanoid figure casting a light in the shape of a cross.

I stopped posting about Silksong because I stopped playing the game hehe 🥲 It wasn’t the difficulty per se (the last thing I did was the Slab, and I didn’t die once). It just no longer felt fun 🙁 I’ll revisit it at some point but I’m a little bummed out

Just beat Hollow Knight 😊 Had such a fun time playing through it! Not only was the gameplay good but the world was so beautiful and (ik I'm weird for thinking this) cozy 🥺

I wasn't able to do 112% (some of those dream bosses are way too tough...) but I managed to get further than I expected :)
Screenshot of my saved file showing hours spent in the game (44h) and completion percentage (106%). Also shows that I got all the health/soul slots

Yes we did ❤️

We did a bunch of stuff to celebrate our one year anniversary 🥰
We went to some gardens and I bullied him into taking photos of me 🥺 I’m wearing a blue dress and I’m surrounded by greenery. He kept calling me short, which is how men say I love you 🙂‍↕️ He’s an amazing chef and he baked a bunch of cupcakes because I was craving something sweet :o there’s four in this picture with candles on them (and an additional candle in the background). Lots of pink sprinkles This was a picture taken during a surprise party. I think he was giving me a lil smooch on the forehead. That’s easy for him to do because I’m short allegedly 😭 He made me steak!! And fries just the way I like them (that he made from scratch by chopping up potatoes 😵‍💫) We also watched a lot of movies. (That’s not pictured here)

I made a spreadsheet to keep track of all the 2025 horror game releases… it’s just making me realize that there’s way too many games for me to play lol 😭

Been a while, but here are some of my horror film highlights from the year so far;

Limbo (Tina Krause, 1999)
Basket Case 2&3 (Frank Henenlotter)
Sinners (Ryan Coogler, 2025)
Roadgames (Richard Franklin, 1981)
Noroi: The Curse (Koji Shiraishi, 2005)
Mad God (Phil Tippet, 2021)
Side by side movie posters for Basket Case 2 and Basket Case 3: The Progeny. Basket Case 2 (left) features a pale face peering out of a wicker basket; the title is below in a bright red font that appears to be dripping blood. Basket Case 3 (right) features the title (in the same font) on top, below which a wicker stroller is sitting under a spotlight. The contents of the stroller are obscured from view by a pink blanket, though a small deformed arm appears to be reaching out. Poster for Limbo (1999); the faces of two partially obscured women peering towards the viewer from behind a chain link fence, the one on the left seemingly scarred, the other appearing to have no mouth. The entire image seems to be black and white, with the whites converted instead to a garish, desaturated pink. The title appears over the bottom half of the poster in bright yellow. Poster for Mad God (2021); features a nondescript person in a full body, heavy duty mining outfit standing at the top of a pile of deformed creatures, shining a lantern into the distance. The title is layered behind this on the top half of the image in a blood red. Poster for Noroi: The Curse (2005); features a humanoid wooden mask with deep black eye sockets, and a singular horn protruding from the top. Red paint seems to be flaking off, making the mask look old and worn.

Forgive me for not sharing details about my next game, I’ve been taking things really slow to avoid burning out even more 😩 If I crunched (worked hours every night after my 9 to 5) I could’ve gotten it done by October, but I realized I’d be destroying myself if I did that 🥲

I know this is unlikely to ever happen, but I would love love love a remake of Psychonauts 😭 For the sequel’s development they recreated the first game’s camp area as an art test and ahhhh it’s so beautiful youtu.be/bFqZNcMAnFo?...

I was cooking when I tried recreating Light Yagami as a neopet 😔
A yellow gelert with brown hair and a black shirt. He’s crying. There’s a festive background. And a pink dagger in the ground

This is my wife and she’s pretty damn awesome, definitely check out her game on Steam if you have time. She works so hard on everything she does, can’t help but be extremely proud of her!

Thank you Yakuza… I needed this 😔🙏
Screenshot of a substory from Yakuza Kiwami 2. Out on the streets, a character named Yoshida is telling his wife(?) “Got me thinkin’ though, there ain’t no rhyme or reason to life. Ya just gotta roll with the punches.” Kiryu is watching this exchange from the back.

My stress has been so bad since Nov 😭 Things feel a lot more sane in Canada… but I still can’t believe that people voted for that man and even now approve of his actions 🫠
