A ★★★½ review of Dolly (2025)

It's another Spooky-thon and we're taking on 2000s-era horror remakes! Last week, 2008's PROM NIGHT! This week, we're joined by our friend Evan Wilson of the Grand Voodoo Band to talk 2005's THE AMITYVILLE HORROR! Get caught up & get scared!

Poster for PROM NIGHT (2008)
Bottom half of a teenage girl's face, mid-sream, while hair & a tiara fall over her face
The caption reads: PROM NIGHT - A NIGHT TO DIE FOR

The poster for THE AMITYVILLE HORROR (2005)
The silhouetted back of bearded Ryan Reynolds oddly holding a shotgun that was probably supposed to be an axe at one point stands in the foreground while the famed Amityville House looms ominously over most of the poster with two massive trees flaming it on either side
The caption reads: THE AMITYVILLE HORROR - BASED ON THE TRUE STORY

Make a movie better by adding John Carpenter's to the title:

Jason Blum demonstrating more openness and enthusiasm for working with AI slop than he did for women directors is one hell of a look.

Jason Blum had one good idea when it came to film production: keep costs down, and give creative people control in exchange.

Every other take he’s had, from the perceived lack of women creatives to work with, to chasing IP, and now his take on AI-has sucked donkey balls.

britt hayes @britthates.bsky.social · 3d

Jason Blum's take on AI sucks. an AI takeover isn't inevitable, and treating it as such (while also referring to filmmaking as "content creation," smdh) helps AI companies promote the lie that their deeply unprofitable, destructive tech is more powerful and useful than it actually is.

“What if we take all the color and character out of an iconic spot, and we make it look like ikea?”

Ah geez, sorry. I meant to send that to Beverly D’Angelo and must have hit the wrong icon.

“I voted for none of this."

Prominent influencers, including Theo Von, Joe Rogan, and Andrew Schulz, are starting to distance themselves from the president they helped propel to the White House.

VHS HALLOWEEN: easily the best since the second entry and probably the best one in the entire series. Not a clunker in the group & it manages to capture the kinda slapdash, hokey nature of the holiday, even at its goriest.

Give me more Rick Baker verbally shredding his neighbor’s dingy home haunt!

I’m not going to quote tge post here but when people say “no one knew how bad it was going to be” what they really mean is they didn’t know how bad it was going to be for them personally.
