So, 80's horror...(Part 2)

Part 1.

Last time, I was crying that the 80's slasher/monster franchises weren't putting out new content anymore.

Well, that hasn't changed so much, but I've changed my perspective.

BOOKS, past-me, you dummy!!

They even Kevin Bacon to the stuff you like!

Circle Of Iron!!!

Yep, I thought I was done with quests, but I stumbled into one that I didn't know was a quest.

"Garth Marenghi's Darkplace" revisited!

Wow, can't believe this is already 21 years old!

Anyway!!

TIL: Richard Matheson.

Previously-

-TIL: Bob Clark.

-TIL: Bruce Davison.

-TIL: John Ritter.

Okay! Billdude mentioned Matheson in the comments, and I know how prolific Matheson is, and how much of his stuff I've already reviewed here.

So, I figured I'd pull it all together like the other TILs.

So, Freddy, Jason, Ash, Chucky, Pinhead...

I made a tag so I don't have to list the previous ones anymore.

I've pretty much mumbled this sentiment in other posts, but let's make it formal.

-Part 1.

-Part 2.

-Part 3.

-Part 3.5.

-Part 4.

-Part 5.

Well!! From not knowing at all what I wanted for my birthday, and not particularly giving a shit about my birthday, to now, its been quite the surprising saga!

I re-became a Le Guin fan; it helped put the cherry on top of changing my worldview, and now these home stretch cleanup movies.

"Woke" horror-comedies.

To go with "The Craft: Legacy".

Even though that one takes itself seriously.

Tron: Ares

Another franchise I slacked off on whilst obsessing on Deadpool & Wolverine....

The Craft: Legacy (2020)

Okay, there are other things I'd rather talk about than this, but I need to reference this to do so, but everyone doesn't know the backstory to get the references, so bear with me as we take this side-trip.

TIL: Bruce Davison.

Some connections I noticed.

Found these going down Wikipedia rabbit holes late at night.

Which is how these things usually go.

TIL: Bob Clark.

TIL that not only did Bob Clark direct "A Christmas Story" but also "Black Christmas" "Porky's" and "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things".

Jesus, I wish I could go back to my teenage self browsing Shady Dave's, and tell him "The Christmas Story guy directed that *points to 'Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things'*".

I probably wouldn't have believed me.

Well, then I'd say "check your video book when you get home, you'll see I'm right. But you'll kick yourself for not grabbing it now".

Retroactive post #6.

Another memorial I missed.

Didn't hear a damned word about it.

James Gunn's superhero bona fides.

James Gunn has been a comic book geek for quite some time.

His association with superhero films goes back practically to the beginning.

Before he flexes his muscles as head-honcho of DC, let's take a look back.

Post-birthday loot 2022.

Got these yesterday!

Let's just jump right in!

After-Margaret book-a-thon!!

From here...

I'm going to not just review this, but everything from prior Christmas/birthday hauls that have accumulated the past 5 years.

I realized once I got done with Margaret's stuff*, I should probably clear away that pile too.

(*parts 1, 2, 2.5, 3)

...and from here..

Yeah, I desperately needed this (Princess Bride) upgraded to Blu-ray.

Especially after just reading "As You Wish".

That's part of a big book-a-thon review post I have coming up.

Stay tuned for that.

So, here it is!!

We're finally here!!

In terms of brain growth, this journey has been like the sequel to "The Summer Of Dune".

Really got a lot out of this!

Birthday loot 2022 update.

Last time, I said...

Stay tuned!

Boom, it dropped in the mailbox the very next day!
