Nefando - Monica Ojeda
4/5 Brilliant in typical Ojeda fashion but felt a little disjointed and overly tedious. Extremely dark, makes you want a shower. Very impressive translation work that really plays into the identity of each character!

Bath Haus - PJ Vernon
4/5 excellent, super unnerving twisty thriller. Gets a little over explained at the end but it’s bearable. This one feels so violating it’s like, oppressive. Extremely creepy.

Mr. Magic - Kiersten White
2/5 Sorry but I didn’t like this one, it felt like a r/nosleep Netflix adaptation for teens, and the writing style wasn’t particularly interesting either.

Black Flame - Gretchen Felker-Martin
5/5 fucking brilliant in its simplicity and also the perfect length for the story. Felt like Hellraiser meets Cigarette Burns. Highly recommend

Spiral - Koji Suzuki
3/5 shockingly boring but somehow well paced at the same time. Effectively creepy but the writing is bland (could be translation though) had an exposition dump at the end and even though the reveal was super cool I HATE having shit explained to me so 😡

I have subconsciously read several books about or featuring weird fucked up film in a row. apparently I love found footage (or missing footage) so much I even read about it now. Truly a film bitch at heart. Anyway: here’s some thoughts

It’s a passion flower! It vines and has fruits that look like lil green eggs 🥹 she kinda stinky tho lol

Christians really have no idea how off kilter their messaging is why is this guy giving me a thumbs up while making demands and threatening me with eternal damnation lmao (at least I only got one of these this week tho)

Becoming an adult is realizing you will never again experience the unbridled joy and satisfaction of eating a tater chip and wonder bread sammich in the back of the car after a long day at the beach

Birb evolution imminent
