Spooktober Day 8: The Horror Show

A very sweaty Lance Henriksen and some bonkers special effects make this an interesting watch. Add in that the villain is truly deplorable, and you've got a solid movie.

This place is constructed entirely from #ash

It's nothing more than an illusion to trick you

It takes the shape of what you desire most, tempting you to reach out and touch it

The moment you make contact, you become one with it and turn into nothing more than ash yourself

Spooktober Day 7: White of the Eye

It's soooo boring! I would rather go to the DMV than watch this movie again.

It gets 0 eyes out of 5

A #clash among the oldest beings in the universe inadvertently created something new

Monstrous and enormous, the new entity fell from the heavens onto Earth

It was basically a playground for it to explore and destroy

After 3 days, 50% of the Earth's surface had been decimated

Spooktober Day 6: The Bat

The filmmakers spent their budget on Vincent Price and then did nothing else to make a good movie.

This gets 2 rubber bats on a string out of 5

He had done horrible things to many people, but he was nowhere as bad as his #associate

The worst he could do was kill someone

His partner controlled the shadows themselves, and it was able to keep someone alive far past the point where one would be dead

Nearly every problem you have right now is because of billionaires.

It's time to eat the rich.

The French know how to make a weird movie and I'm absolutely here for it!

It gets 4 NSFW relationships with a car out of 5

The #advert promises so many things

A life without pain and a chance to recapture your youth

It may seem too good to be true, but it really can do that for you

You just have to sacrifice someone else, someone younger, to gain their years

Would you do it?

Spooktober Day 4: The Pit and the Pendulum

Despite the name, there's hardly any pit or pendulum goodness to speak of, but that's okay because Vincent Price knocks it out of the park.

It gets 4 really unsafe rooms out of 5

They had been told the species was highly #elastic

Curious, they tested it out on the first one they came across

The woman screamed as she was scooped up and stretched out, ultimately ripping apart

They thought she was an exception, so they tested further with 37 other humans

Aww, thank you! I try my hardest, so it's nice to know my stuff actually lands!

Radar DeBoard @radardeboard.bsky.social · 5d

That reaction says I'm doing something right!

Radar DeBoard @radardeboard.bsky.social · 5d

It's just a friendly reminder that there's no such thing as a good billionaire.

Spooktober Day 3: True Fiction

A film that exemplifies two important life lessons.

1. Never meet your heros

2. FAFO

It's a solid film that might be worth checking out.

It gets 3 extremely unsafe writing retreats out of 5

Of all the things to disguise itself as, it settled on orange juice #pulp

This made it near impossible to detect and gave it an incredibly easy entry point

No one suspected it being there until after drinking part of it and allowing it to spread throughout their body
