Mike Flanagan is definitely one of the most prominent horror directors working right now, and I've really liked the majority of his work. Bu...

Yeah I get it. I liked it a lot but was also glad it was only three seasons.

Because the rapture was supposed to be coming a few weeks ago, I decided to finally watch “The Leftovers.” Like “Lost” it was engrossing but also very frustrating at times. Unlike “Lost,” it totally stuck the landing with a finale (and a final scene anchored by Carrie Coons) that gutted me.

Earlier this year I spent a few days in Mendocino, and while I was there watched a couple of movies that were filmed in the area. One that w...

Musty TV's Maniacal Movie Countdown - Day 4: Stopmotion (2023)

Rain @rainrainrain.bsky.social · 4d

Animaniacs.

Stop motion animation is, in many ways, inherently creepy. Maybe it's the dead-eyed look of the puppets. Maybe it's their movements, which c...

Musty TV's Maniacal Movie Countdown - Day 3: Silent Scream (1979)

Silent Scream is a somewhat forgotten slasher about the horrors of trying to find last minute student housing in a seaside college town. ...

Musty TV's Maniacal Movie Countdown - Day 2: The Rule of Jenny Pen (2024)

Rain @rainrainrain.bsky.social · 6d

Just did the math and if the ACA subsidy extensions the dems are asking for are not passed, my monthly health insurance will now cost me over $1,400. For a mid level plan. With over a $5k deductible.

So yeah. Definitely not mad at the dems for this shutdown.

Jenny, I’ve got your number…

Being that The Rule of Jenny Pen is streaming on Shudder, it is only fair that one would assume it is a horror movie. And while horrible th...

Definitely horses and for a short time we seemed to be into it and even went to your place to watch the (I think) Kentucky Derby 🐎

Or maybe it was just the allure of $1 hot dogs at the track.

Rain @rainrainrain.bsky.social · 8d

(It was horse racing!)

Rain @rainrainrain.bsky.social · 10d

I still watch local TV news and that’s the only place I heard about it.

Rain @rainrainrain.bsky.social · 12d

Have you seen “A Thousand and One”? That’s was sold me on her originally.

Rain @rainrainrain.bsky.social · 12d

I did but watched it at home during Covid so will admit I don’t remember a lot of it!
