...and possesses your soul. 😄 For the record (pun unintended but enjoyed), I got it in three goes, though I was definitely looking for a Slayerish word on that third attempt. I quite liked that - it made it feel a bit different.

A 'moment' is a great way to describe it. I felt like I was in a TV drama.

Great bit of artwork, that - I hadn't seen it before. I rewatched Dead Ringers earlier this year, and it's still brilliant. Possibly my favourite Cronenberg film.

Yeah, overall I had a good time with it. It'd make a nice double bill with Ghostwatch.

Ooh, yes, I remember the Prince Charming dance - an easy one to learn. The nose-stripe thing was huge too, back in the day, wasn't it? All easily copyable for kids - just perfect.

Nice! My friends and I, aged 11, dressed up as the Ants and mimed to Stand And Deliver at a school variety show. I 'played' a homemade wooden 'guitar'. It was probably the first slightly rebellious thing I did: my parents didn't like Adam and the Ants, and until this point I was pretending not to.

It was really interesting, yeah, though at that point I don't think I'd seen the films it was homaging. So it was an education on a couple of levels. I recall lots of laughter, too. It certainly played to an appreciative audience. In fact, I don't think we could quite believe our luck!

First time I saw this was at school, in Film & TV Studies, when I was 14 or 15. We watched it over a few sessions. Ditto for Psycho. Not a bad way to spend a lesson or six!

Exactly. It's a great gig, too. Fantastic light show, and even a backstage meet.

“Dead by Dawn” sounds about right. 😄

Cheers - I’ll definitely have a look at some point.

Had my eye on this - chiefly because it’s Chris Stuckmann, and even the bad reviews have intrigued me, especially with regard to the ending. But, yeah, I’ll probably wait for streaming. It’s all late-night screenings near me.
