    PSA: The Substance is streaming exclusively on MUBI as of today! Mubi is pretty generous with trial offers (e.g. you can get 7 days free on Prime, etc.). If you're new to join, you can get 30 days free through a referral by current members (before creating an account with your email, I believe)...

    6th Annual N&G 31 Days* of Halloween (2024)

    Yes! This was my Hooptober selection for the "movie with multiple cuts" criteria. We watched on Peacock which only features the "theatrical" ending, but I read up on the other versions. The original downer of an ending didn't do well with test screenings, so they softened it. I thought it was a...

    1408 was a bit of a welcome surprise for me. I'm really impressed at how consistently this movie hits its beats. A skeptical author known for documenting and scoring supposed haunts forcibly books a stay in New York's most haunted hotel room. His hubris is met with the a perfect foil in the...

    One of the more recent perks of living in Chicago has been the triumphant return of Graveface Records & Terror Vision to the city. They've been popping up with all sorts of concerts and screenings, including a free showing of regional creature-feature horror oddity In the Woods last night at one...

    Here's a late roundup of some of the past few weeks watches. Suitable Flesh is a fun and engaging recent release with cosmic, psychological, and body horror elements. 💀 💀 💀 🦴 Hell House LLC Origins: The Charmichael Manor is a strong return to form for the budding franchise. Addresses some...

    I'm a perennial subscriber and love it. I get enough out of it every month to make it worth the cost. Every now and again I jump on a promo for AMC+ and I do enjoy their exclusives too, so it's almost silly that I don't just upgrade permanently to the AMC+ sub at $2 more per month since all of...

    H2 > 3 From Hell, but totally understand the lack of desire. Zombie's Halloweens are a cinematic equivalent of a good song cover (where an artist puts their own signature stamp on it). His rendition is angry as fuck, yet he also found a way to weave more of a more grounded, gritty, and...

    Oh boy do I have some thoughts about the middle of that list (mostly regarding the order/placement of the Zombie flicks).

    6th Annual N&G 31 Days* of Halloween (2024)

    I'd agree with 1, 2, H20 (having not seen Resurrection or 4–6 yet, though I get the impression Resurrection is nonessential LOL). I really dug 2018 but despised Kills and have zero intention of finishing the requel trilogy. Rob Zombie's take is super brutal, but it's worth working through the...

    6th Annual N&G 31 Days* of Halloween (2024)

    I've seen All Hallows Eve (the origin anthology), Terrifier, and Terrifier 2. Of the three, Terrifier 2 was easily the most amusing. None of them are entirely my thing, but there was a levity to 2 that I did enjoy. I like Art as a villain — nonverbal yet so emotive. Vaudevillian in a way. T2...

    Anyone in need of an afternoon shoegaze/dreampop stream, Chicago's Shimmer Dj's Scary Lady Sarah and Philly Peroxide should be going live for four hours any minute now. Follow the channel for notifications on future streams as well! (Sarah streams ethereal, cold wave, post-punk and goth most...
