8. MAGIC (4 films based on Novels)

Hopkins is great, especially voicing Fats, but the film fizzles out very quickly. Looking forward to see what Sam Raimi does if his remake comes to fruition, definitely could be up his alley • #HorrorSky #Hooptober12

A ★★½ review of Magic (1978)

Despite a fun, committed performance by Anthony Hopkins, this films is kinda boring. I’m not sure what the book is like, but Corky & Fats getting their freak on in New York would have been much more f...

Bill Mather’s hauntingly beautiful matte painting of Gotham City for BATMAN RETURNS (1992). Flawless.

A snow-covered Gotham skyline at nighttime with the Gotham Zoo in the foreground. Black space in the middle of painting for projection.

Pretty sure Jerry Goldsmith is my favorite film score composer. Where are all the strings in horror these days!?

When we were in 7th grade my best friend Val took three Flintstones vitamins at once and I freaked out because I thought she was going to die from that.

I totally agree, but I got scared of people mispronouncing my podcast’s name or mixing it up with SpectreVision 😭

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

Create NSFW art

Porn is not evil, sex is not abhorrent, pleasure is not a crime

Even if you don't agree with all kinks doesn't mean they should be allowed to censor art

This is why we have tags and the blick button, not megacorps deciding what we can and cannot like

Always resist oppression

Going chronologically by release date, so the conversation between the two series itself will be interesting

Similar to PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 2 (that I just rewatched), this film does a great job of taking the crumbs of lore from the first film to shift it into a franchise. It’s also funny watching Jason bumble around a bit haha

7. CARRIERS (2 Post Apocalyptic horror films)

Genre King Lou Taylor Pucci delivers another stellar performance. I know we hate his character in EVIL DEAD ‘13 but the guy deserves more flowers. Also can someone wrangle Chris Pine into some more horror movies? • #HorrorSky #Hooptober12

A ★★★★ review of Carriers (2009)

Filed away in the “hits different after post COVID” section, a very solid viral epidemic movie. Powered mainly by fantastic cast chemistry, particularly Pucci & Pine. Hits a few similar beats to other...
