Of all the clerics they could have popped, those ICE idiots had to hit Hot Priest.

πŸ“½οΈWatched The Exorcist with my husband last night & he loved it despite the Southern Baptist devil trauma. He was surprised at how beautiful and intentionally-paced it was. I wonder if I can get him to watch Sorcerer w/me. That was my real spooky season kickoff.

Um, I KNOW COLD FEET. I am just a general tv/film lover, & I adored that show when I was in college. #thelastdrivein #mutantfam

This is such a cool movie idea that I've forgotten to post & have just been watching. I adore how institutionally spooky the setting is, just bleak and grey. #thelastdrivein #mutantfam

I desperately need people (myself included sometimes!) to actually look at the research cited in so many articles like this.

I have ALMOST watched all of the 70s thrillers. Winter Kills was truly bonkers. Gotta re-watch Night Moves, one of my favorites, & finish Obsession & The Anderson Tapes. #criterionchannel

Spread Me Spread Me is a darkly seductive tale of survival from Sarah Gailey, bestselling author of Just Like Home. A routine probe at a research station turns deadly ...

Spread Me, my erotic horror novella about an isolated research team and the specimen that wants to explore them back, is available everywhere you buy books.

πŸ“½οΈI don't think The Monkey (2025, Osgood Perkins) was well received, but I liked it. It's funny. Kind of gross. The child actors are great. I remain easy to please & baffled by big responses to pretty modest movies - somebody said it was dogshit, which is a lot of opinion for a light movie.

πŸ“½οΈWinter Kills is perhaps the most bonkers of the 70s paranoid thrillers series. Young Jeff Bridges yelling DAD YOU STINK after riding away on a horse into a picturesque distance, shirt unbuttoned - what a strange moment in a movie full of strange moments. #thecriterionchannel
