Halloween 2026!



Well, last year, the pumpkin headed despot got re-elected.
He's done such a horrifyingly awful job, there's about to be a blue tsunami.
If the traitorous Repugs don't pull some fuckery by refusing to seat Democrats.
So that's fun to be watching the clock for. Stay tuned! 

Previous years-


All the horror stuff from this year...


And finally, song time!



And, as always...

Merry Deathmas!
And a happy new candy! :-D

Masters Of Horror! (Stephen King, Part 3)



Long past time I updated these.

He had a kind of weak period with his books and movies, and I lost the faith.
My mother never did.
It became an x-er and millennial hipster thing online to shit all over him too.
He's so prolific, and omnipresent, it was like whispering naughty gossip about the popular cheerleader.
But, no, he's omnipresent because he's really that good.
The recent renaissance of movies and shows has reminded me, and re-opening his books has really reminded me. 
He deserves that National Medal of Arts from the National Endowment of the Arts.
I'm proud he's a Mainer, and glad my mother and grandmother left the door open for me to come back.

Hey, doesn't make him perfect, he's had weak days at the office.
But so have artists the haters gush their love all over.
Worse days. And they got a pass that King would never get.
I'm looking at you, Grant Morrison fans.

Also, Tim Curry was awesome, and he was a King fan, which is why he did Pennywise.
Curry is cool, King is cool, that's the end of that discussion. 

So, yeah.
Here we go....

Masters Of Horror! (Arthur Machen)



I mean, for my own personal taste, I think Hodgson crushes him, but his stuff is fascinating historically, and he's worth the homework dive to gain insight on the artists he influenced.

Anyway! Links!

Pre-Halloween Bullmoose trip.

I was gonna be cute and play "spot the theme" but come on. It's Tim Curry.
I always kicked the can down the street on these, and then he passed, and it was just plain time.

William Hope Hodgson connections to Evil Dead?

I personally think so.
Maybe I'm making non-existent connections on a cork board, but I think I'm on to something.
Even if I'm wrong, I don't think I'm pulling it entirely out of my ass.
See what you think...
