I still say he deserved a best supporting actor Oscar for that speech alone.

Robert Bloch's tales of terror lead a fine cast to their death in a cursed house of doom. Cushing and Lee lead a fearfully good third Amicus anthology. 1971

Seen at @beyondfest.bsky.social - #QueensOfTheDead finds Tina Romero upping the camp, yet still retaining the core ideas of her father's zombie films. An old-fashioned look for the undead & socially relevant themes informing the characters. My review via We Live Entertainment - tinyurl.com/yu67sae8

Same here. Solid overall. However the sequence where they try to hit the boss has some of the best editing Iโ€™ve ever seen. Pretty well flawless in my Un-educated opinion. youtu.be/hHOywymVSfM?...

If you read Dashiel Hammetโ€™s the Glass Key, itโ€™s basically the exact same story.

Whale's genius for eccentricity, gallows humour and chills runs riot in a second gothic masterwork with Karloff. Terrific fun, classic defined. 1932.

The Whip and the Body. 1963. Dark and deliciously deviant desires call from the grave in a strikingly Sadean ghost story. Bava at his exquisite best.

Riffing on the classic horror story The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers, Bram Stoker Awardโ€“winning author Hailey Piper tells the story of Carmen, who is bored in her relationship and anxious that sheโ€™s losing her hold on her girlfriend, Blanca. In an effort to keep Blanca interested, Carmen has been pushing her physical boundaries, ultimately leading her to discover a play that makes its readers feel euphoric  โ€” at a cost. Carmen is warned that reading too much of the play will drive her insane, but she keeps chasing the high she feels when she reads it, seeking out more and more of the text. As she reads, her sense of reality begins to slip in horrifying waysโ€ฆ but she canโ€™t stop.

While I feel it's a bit early to nail down any best-of-the-year lists, I'm glad Bookbub enjoyed A GAME IN YELLOW and gave it a place among these terrific horror titles of 2025 so far by Alma Katsu, RF Kuang, Rachel Harrison, Stephen King, Stephen Graham Jones & more ๐Ÿ’›

an extraordinary person with an extraordinary legacy who nevertheless didnโ€™t take herself too seriously

when Gary Larson published this cartoon, she was in Africa and her institute was horribly offended and drafted a complaint

the whole thing was defused when she returned - she found it funny

Jane Goodall pulling her records from Spotify was just another black eye for it. After she played drums on SKETCHES OF SPAIN and QUIET NIGHTS, Miles Davis was happy to play on Goodall's studio albums NIGHT TRAIN and HARD BOP, both of which are rarities today--exactly the sort of thing for SPOTIFY.

Well Iโ€™m sorry then Iโ€™m lost. I read the article and donโ€™t see how thereโ€™s much difference between what Iโ€™ve been saying and the position in it. I just differ in that I think their depiction of racism is more reflective of their own racism. Pretty much in agreement with 90% of article.

Like the Hall of Stereotypes where the Mexican display is actually a lazy janitor is hard to swallow with Trumpโ€˜s current ethnic cleansing. I donโ€™t see why I should give Matt and Trey a pass. I didnโ€™t make them be racist. And itโ€™s not hard to make the connection between stuff like that and Trump.

Read the article and itโ€™s pretty much the position Iโ€™ve been espousing? Iโ€™m just more ready to directly assign South Park blame for helping to create this atmosphere. I was there for the 90s censorship but two white guys pc culture by using Mexican stereotypes aged like mayonnaise in the sun.

Itโ€™s not about free speech absolutism. They posit racists ideas and I respond to them. People have mistaken critique for censorship. If they are allowed to forcefully state their opinions, Iโ€™m within my rights to critique the substance of their work and the substance is pathetic.
