The first six Friday the 13th movies as burgers. It's basically science.

The Friday the 13th franchise is the burger of the slasher genre bbq. And we’ve still got a couple more weeks of bbq season.

No two burgers or movies are exactly the same. Here are the first half dozen installments of Friday the 13th in burger form.

In honor of Bruce, the hungry fella who unexpectedly dominated the weekend's box office!

Here's a video about how to do a summer crab boil. Inspired by #Jaws, but maybe not for the reasons you think.

There’s nothing particularly subtle about a man-eating shark. But I think there are other, quieter horrors at work in Jaws. And a late summer crab boil brings them to mind.

Let’s all savor the season before it’s over.

My theory is that there’s not-random overlap between #horror fans and #food / #cooking enthusiasts — based on the premise that both are sensory experiences that are difficult to fully articulate.

Also based on the fact that I love both these things. Anybody else? If so, do you see a connection?

It’s #FridayReads time! Let’s boost all signals. Repost this and let us know what to repost for you. Do you like horror? Noir? Magic? The ocean? Righteous violence? Ghosts? Hanging with your friends? I have one for you!

Louie, inspired by this week’s post at Tuxedo Catsaw Massacre, smooshed his face into the couch, with this result.

I explained that the horror movie meme under discussion involves face *smashing* which not as gentle as *smooshing*.

At Tuxedo Catsaw Massacre, I trace the evolution of 2 memes, one horror, one culinary. The horror: characters who violently smash their own faces. The culinary: whole roasted cauliflower. And I combine them into a recipe that speaks to how cultural ideas are passed along.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre & Midsommar: sunny horror, doomed interlopers, closed communities. The movies' very different approach to shared elements inspired me to create 2 very different meals from the same primary ingredients. Sure to put a smile on your face.
