A screenshot of the recent activity tab from my Letterboxd account, it shows publicity images of the last four things I’ve watched. They are; Body In The Bin: The Murder Of Louise Kam, Conversations With A Killer: The Son Of Sam Tapes, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and Amy Bradley Is Missing.

A cat, Fluffy (short for Fluffy Little Ball Of Rage And Fury because she was a right little madam when she was a kitten. As an adult she was a sweetheart. Very much the boss of everything, but a sweetheart on the sly), sitting on a windowsill, glaring from behind a curtain at me, the idiot with the camera.

A black cat, Wazzcat (I was informed that he was actually originally named Angel as a kitten but his fur was often so, and I quote "wazzy", that he became known as Wazzcat), sitting on an armchair in front of an electric fire.

With the exception of any horror stuff I may shoot, I didn't/don't really plan on sharing much of my photography on this profile (I have a separate profile for my photography - @thegeekysnapper.bsky.social), but it's #InternationalCatDay, so it'd be rude not to share some...

A lesson on how not to make a documentary, especially a true crime one. Such a disservice to Louise Kam and her loved ones.

A β˜…β˜…β˜… review of The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) Watched it on a whim as it's leaving Netflix soon. Though I don't know why I had low expectations for it, it was in all honesty far better than I expected it would be, and I quite enjoyed it.

I can only recall seeing him in Terror Train. But that was released in something like 1980, not 1992 πŸ˜•

With them referencing it a few times, it made me wonder how a Psych and The Mentalist crossover would have gone.

Seen this image from #SDCC25 around #HorrorSky... I can't quite put my finger on why exactly, and it could just be my defective brain, but something about it makes me think of a collectable based on a cartoon.

As I look at it whilst writing this post, I'm thinking Scooby Doo?!

I tried writing a well reasonedβ€”and overly lengthyβ€”post about this, but it was far too courteous, so instead:

Fidji Simo, I look forward to the day your boss realises your job can be performed by an AI based system and you find yourself jobless like many already have because of people like you.

a man in a pink shirt is standing in front of a white board that says page Alt: Captain Raymond Holt (played by the late Andre Braugher) in the TV show Brooklyn 99, working at Frank’s Fun Zone whilst in witness protection, saying to someone out of shot β€œwhat next, an actual slap in the face?”

The face scan age verification thingy to keep your messages on here could be a bit slower when deciding. Make it seem like you think I could be a bit younger than I am rather than the almost instant "christ, yeah that's old!" that seemed to happen.

Something I seeβ€”mostly on photography socials/forums rather than horror stuffβ€”when someone passes that I don't understand is; the people who post paragraphs about how they weren't a fan of the person or their work, some even including critiques of them/it, and then ending it with "but it is sad".

Something produced by a person with an admiration and a love for someone, shared with others who also have those feelings, isn't ghoulish. If anything its more akin to a tribute, and anyone else devastated by the news that happens to see it may find it helps them.

When I was youngerβ€”a smidge before the streaming boomβ€”all my free time was spent gaming, and every now and again my brain tells me I should have got in on streaming at the start. Now it's not an option, I don't have the stuff needed to do it, and sometimes I regret it.

If you can, give it a go πŸ™‚

#LastFourWatched has barely changed from last #LetterboxdFriday. Most of my week was spent learning a new photo editing software (as I age the speed with which I get to grips with this stuff seems to be slowing at an alarming rate!), and the instructional YouTube videos aren’t on @letterboxd.social
