Slim Fandango

Brought to you by the party that controls the presidency, the entire Legislative branch, the Supreme Court, and pretty much every public media outlet imaginable.

It's a real "CURTAINS FOR ZOOSHA!" kind of morning.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday, #filmsky. My #LastFourWatched include a new banger from DC, one the best horror remakes in recent memory, a bona fide classic, and an early 2000s movie about a nerd who makes a wish for a hot girl to fall in love with him and all hell breaks loose...wait, WHAT? boxd.it/5gbF

Why am I being subjected to multiple Johnny Depp trailers at a single movie screening in the year 2026?

Watching Friday the 13th and I'm just going to come out and say it: Strip Monopoly makes no sense.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday, #filmsky. My #LastFourWatched include a pretty decent Jack Haley comedy and three rewatches including a film where Steve McQueen seems to age a little bit more every time I see it. boxd.it/5gbF

I'm kind of mixed on some of the choices in Flanagan's Carrie series but at least it *makes* choices and Summer Howell and Samantha Sloyan are incredible in it.

“No Way To Prevent This,” Says Only Ballpark Where This Regularly Happens

I'm only a few episodes in on Mike Flanagan's Carrie series and it's pretty great but this is just diabolical

If we were a proper country we would have declared today a national holiday.

Starting October off with some great made-for-tv horror and a real gem from Carole Lombard playing against type in a pre-code possession flick. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched boxd.it/5gbF

Got a couple of good spook 'em up discs on the Barnes & Noble Kino sale

I'm just going to take a stab here without doing any research and guess 20% is roughly the percentage of generals who are minorities and/or women.

Watching Deliverance and I don't think Billy Redden gets enough credit for his range.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday, #filmsky. Here are my #LastFourWatched. My big tip this week is run, don't walk, to archive.org and watch their postage stamp sized avi of Terror Aboard, an honest-to-goodness pre-code slasher with a huge body count.

I threw on my blu ray of The Omen then went to look something up and hit my favorite recurring "People Also Ask" bit:

Pupkin. Rupert Pupkin.

Oh heck yeah, the Margaret Rutherford Ms. Marple movies are up on Britbox!

Finally, someone I'd enjoy catching a movie with.

Goddammit, I had such a good streak going of "never having had to think about Ed Sheerhan."

I am fucking wheezing right now

If you are looking for something 9/11-related to watch today, I can't recommend the musical Come From Away enough. It's an excellent one act musical about grief, hope, and community. There is a terrific live recording of the show on Apple TV+ right now. boxd.it/eLxjrh

Happy #LetterboxdFriday, #filmsky! My #LastFourWatched include - One of the great hostage crisis movies - Vincent Price in House of Wax mode - A ho-hum classic - A much better than expected killer snail movie

Happy #LetterboxdFriday, #filmsky! A nice spread of bangers in my #LastFourWatched including a Norwegian horror classic and one of the best teen comedies of the 80s.

Thank god we have... <gulp> Kash Patel at the helm to steer us through this.

So I guess gas is just more than five bucks a gallon now. Weird not seeing a dozen stories about it every day.

Wow. $15,000-20,000 refundable tax credit (you get the money like a grant if your taxes aren't as high as the benefit) for keeping journalists hired. $15,000 for hiring new ones. $7,500 for hiring part-time. For-profit, nonprofit, **sole-proprietors** — doesn't matter. How did this happen???

BREAKING: A federal court granted our emergency request to block USPS from implementing President Trump's order to restrict mail-in voting for the November election.

Netflix's newest original series, Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look, will reportedly have a much shorter run than fans have been hoping. paletteswap.site/dif...

Well, it's Thursday

To honor Tim Curry's memory, we are making Brütal Legend FREE on Itch.io, for 666 minutes: itch.io/s/199277/the...

Make a band bigger: The Five Tops

I can't wait for them to charge this guy with threatening to murder the president

I hate that I just had the most 70's conspiracy thriller-ass take about where all of this Natalie Harp stuff is headed and my first thought was "no, too obvious."

Remember that day we all learned about Chet Hanks?

Sorry sorry everyone I’m sorry

I just watched Reacher murder a man with a library.
