Of course, while I'm working on my WIP, my imagination gets snagged and now I'm working on a sequel to THE SMALL HOURS. No promises, but let me if Jay and Willi are ready for another funny, horny, and gory adventure.

THE SMALL HOURS available at @ghoulish.bsky.social.

31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Time for a DOUBLE FEATURE!

Two films, both remakes, that surpass the originals in style and presentation, and the originals are classics in their own way. I'm talking about INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS and THE FLY.

31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN

Day 30

THE THING, one of two horror remakes that surpass the original films, and this one sets the benchmark for practical effects still used today. I first saw this on Cinemax on a Sunday evening decades ago and it became an instant all-time favorite film.

31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN

Day 29

The first time I saw ALIEN was on The Movie Channel years after it released in the theater, so it already had a stellar reputation. Today, it is considered a classic in the genre, and one of the scariest films ever made.

The calm before the storm.

Day 27

THE NIGHT STALKER, both the films and the series, captivated my attention when I was younger. 6 year-old me was so pissed when it was cancelled I wanted my dad to call the tv station and demand they put it back on.

Day 26

Another polarizing film, I absolutely loved BRING HER BACK. Raw, brutal, intense, and steeped in the occult. People messing with things that are better left alone.

Day 25

Another polarizing film, HEREDITARY is one of those films people either love or love to hate. I personally love it.

31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN

Day 24

This is a very polarizing film, but I really enjoyed TALK TO ME. I love that it's part of a larger world the Philippou Bros. are creating, a world where the occult not only works but is a thing that can be bought and traded...so many fucked up things to mess with there.

Do you read Sutter Cane?

Carpenter's IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS is the epitome of fun, weird, cosmic, meta horror. I love it so much. Recently got the new Sutter Cane book (yes, it's real) going to dig into it soon.
