Day twenty-six of my now normal Halloween marathon: Luc Besson’s Dracula, which was just Dollar Tree Francis Ford Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula; and The Exorcism, which needed a hundred percent more Popes and Vespas.

Day twenty-five of my now normal Halloween marathon: Both versions of The Crazies! And even though the original Romero version is just a lot of middle aged guys arguing in offices and labs, it still felt more novel than the 2010 version (even though Timothy Olyphant is good in it)!

Not sure I should have followed up watching Possession with this. Hentai meets trauma meets comedy, and shot like a Cinemax softcore? It’s certainly an original concept.

Just watched a perfectly normal, super chill, and very relaxing movie.

The Orphan movies fucking rule. I hope the third one gets even more bonkers.

M3gan did not serve **** for her franchise to end like this. It's like a much hornier version of Companion or a bigger budget version of that old Cinemax series Forbidden Science. Either way, we've lost the art of erotic thrillers. There's no one with chemistry in this to make the spice really work.

Day twenty-three of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: The Dark Tower! Seven plus books jammed into a bland ninety-minutes!

Just got back from Clayface and really enjoyed it! Part Cronenberg, part Darkman, all gooey!

Day twenty-two of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Finished up 11.22.63, a good time travel series that’s probably two episodes too long, starring a problematic lead!

Day twenty-one of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Thinner! It hasn't aged well at all, and it is pretty trashy, but it is very watchable!

Day Twenty of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: In The Tall Grass, a feature length movie that should have just been a short film.

Quark’s!

Day nineteen of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Two movies that were pretty rough to watch for vastly different reasons. (Oddly enough, both movies had the great Ann Dowd in them.)

Day eighteen of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Only one movie, (and this was last night, this post is just late) but it was a banger. Also might be the most Maine-iest of Maine accents of any Stephen King adaptation.

I cannot believe I'm saying this, but this is the best of the Pooh-niverse series. Mainly because the visual effects are pretty impressive for a shoestring budget horror movie capitalizing on public domain.

Day seventeen of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: All four Pet Semetary movies! The original is okay, but oddly, the sequel was the most enjoyable of the bunch(mainly because of Clancy Brown).

Heads up to all @cbbworld.bsky.social folx! @pftompkins.bsky.social, nicole parker and @brettmorris.bsky.social of The Neighborhood Listen are on twitch.tv/everythingnowshow tonight!

Day fifteen of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Streaming era Stephen King! Only one of these was any interesting and it’s the one where Thomas Jane plays a weird guy!

Day fourteen of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: A couple of whiffs in terms of adaptations, but so bonkers you can't look away. Lawnmower Man 2 though, woof. Doesn't even feel truly connected to its predecessor at all. And should have been more about the dog that can use a computer.

Day thirteen of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: The equivalent of a Lifetime Movie, a movie with hyperactive editing, and an absolute banger full of catfights!

For those that watched Visionquest; It’s important to know that the West Coast Avengers story that was adapted in WandaVision and led to this was published in 1989, the same year as Belgian techno anthem “Pump Up The Jam”. youtu.be/-Su287HvJRQ?...

Day eleven of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: The Sometimes They Come Back trilogy! Wild swings in the quality of all these.

Day nine of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Long day today as I knocked out both Rose Red and Storm of the Century. Both were much better than I expected! Rose Red was a good haunted house story with a banger cast, and Storm of the Century is all Tim Daly, baby! Both worth a watch!

Day eight of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: The Firestarter series! Two movies that were just okay, but for different reasons. And one TV movie sequel miniseries that was really bad!

Day seven of my Stephen King Halloween marathon: Only had time for one today, but it's a banger. Needful Things is the one story I'm shocked didn't get the miniseries or even streaming series treatment. The cast, ESPECIALLY the late great JT Walsh, is so good in this!

There was also a weird recurring notion of duality going on in a lot of the books. Prime splits in two and fights himself, as does Night Man. Mantra passes the torch to the aforementioned high schooler and sort of mentors her...

Three Nurses is my second favorite Spin Doctors song.
