Elijah!

 

Predator Badlands was pretty good! Although it certainly helps to know what to expect going in. More of an action adventure film, oddly somewhat wholesome

 

Fuck the Devil + Fuck the Devil 2 – Vinegar Syndrome

$12! What a steal!

 

Been a bit out on horror since Halloween, but did The Void today. This movie feels SO close to being, like, really, really good. It’s like all the elements are there, but they fall a centimeter too short.

 

I wanted to like that movie so much and it just failed to stick the landing for me

 

They spent all their money on the great special effects for a story with no likable characters. So annoying. They've done a lot of other movies I like since then at least.

 

The cop was just Temu Dewey.

 

The Void might fall a little short on story but still totally rocks imo

 

couldn't really get into The Void save for the atmosphere and seeing Kenneth Welsh in something that wasn't Twin Peaks. might be time to revisit it soon

 

Atmosphere is the best thing it has going for it, for sure.

 

he was in a good X-File too, like 85% of the Twin Peaks cast lmao

 

Watching Dream Home, a lot bleaker than I expected. Great premise great kills tho.

 

Huge shoutout to @Michael Belt for hooking me up a copy of I Saw the TV Glow with his A24 membership. It's a beautiful package and I can't wait to rewatch it this weekend - should make a great double-feature with Queens of the Dead.

 

and for a 1080p disc, the specs on that thing are stellar. great picture and a great use of an Atmos soundtrack too. i also really like the presentation of A24's standard digipaks with the art cards and everything.

 

the whole time you think it was Michael but the disc just showed up at your place unprompted

 

A24 took pity on Aaron and just sent him the disc after not previously having it all this time

 

Oh fuck Welcome to Derry ep 1 goes so fucking hard. I only started watching this on a whim and didn't really expect to get invested but damn

 

Oooh, did not know there was a new Horror in the High Desert

 

Oh neat

 

Think I need to do a rewatch of 1-3. Foggy on details

 

What?!

 

I'm on episode like two or three, idk if I'm fully on board yet with how they're handling the story but the scares so far have been genuinely terrifying, they look great and are so well done

 

legitimately had no idea until I saw a post saying it was out yesterday. 5th film confirmed, too

 

Watched The Nun this evening. Besides a few solid jump scares, it didn’t do much for me. Is the sequel any better?
