NYC DOE high school teacher, correctional education at Rikers Island.
Movie lover. Give me some lowbrow schlocky horror or give me some highbrow Ingmar Bergman, but keep your uninspired middlebrow crap. #horror #LGFM #FilmSky #Movies
Ironically I went from lowest to highest after going from Spike Lee’s dreadful adaptation to Kurosawa’s masterpiece.

Well I’ve had a very classy week!
Two foundational Giallo classics.
One French New Wave classic.
One Found Footage horror classic.

Nouvelle Vague was the most fun I had in the theater in a long while.

House of the Devil is a perennial watch and always a blast.

Frankenstein seems to be universally loved but I just couldn’t get into it. At all.

Me and my little buddy watching Bird With the Crystal Plumage.
He nudges me, “the iconic black gloves!”
“Good boy,” I reply.

Beautifully written book despite the brutally horrific subject matter. Best book I read in quite some time.
Due is a master wordsmith.

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU.

YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

I can’t think of a better way to spend a Sunday.
Breathless (1960) at home.
Nouvelle Vague (2025) in the theater.

Going to see Linklater’s Nouvelle Vague tomorrow. Should I watch Breathless before or after?

My last four watched are bookended by two magical works, John Huston’s The Dead and Richard Linklater’s Before Sunrise.
The middle two movies I watched in the middle of the week are a bit middle of the road.

La Strada and Sunset Boulevard, two movies by two kings of cinema.
The Mist and Pet Sematary, two movies from another kind of King.

Deliciously hellacious bookends with Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness and the great Turkish horror Baskin.

Gokè is a 60s Japanese romp.

IKWYDLS (2025) feels like it was written by AI writers. AI = Awfully Idiotic.

One of these things is not like the other. One masterpiece and three not masterpieces.

Escape from LA …unnecessary and unworthy.

Get away from Get Away.

Hell House LL would be better as lost footage instead of found.

I saw Deathstalker today at the Alamo in NYC. It’s more parody than homage, unfortunately.
Turn off the action smoothing! Felt like Saturday morning television.

The VVitch and Bring Her Back are modern day classics that I’ll rewatch regularly.
V/H/S Halloween is a dementedly fun and gory anthology just as Satan intended.
Triangle…meh. Felt like a forgettable Black Mirror episode.
