Someone ported Impulse Tracker to linux and I got all thrilled about getting into laying down patterns like in the old days and folks, this is not a place of honor https://www.dropbox.com/s/w9patiff10fjnd6/GROGNOX.mp3

Im really into how so many of the foundational 19th century tales of horror hinged upon one twist: this guy.... is not... a regular guy!!

WHEN ARE THEY GONNA MAKE A CURE FOR BERMUDA TRIANGLE

I’m honestly partyin

Lmao i know police procedural is the most established tv formula but i did not expect them to slap that on Snowpiercer

I like how "chortle" entered the english language from Jabberwocky and, using its understood meaning, is from a passage where a father learns his son is not dead as he feared, but victorious and home again, goes in for a hug, and is like "haha *snort* classic"

God i havent been to the gym in so long i dont even know if i could still leg press all the weight they have

Remaking suspiria in 1982

Yes I’m an animal man

Yes I’m a mineral man
We exist, deal with it

Anyway watch Sadako vs Kayako instead. It's bonkers and the credits music is bananas, like some glam numetal which (in english) outlines the plot of the movie you just watched. I love that corny shit it's so wild

Grudge 2020 just... doesn't. Oh, it also doesn't have the concept of the onryou to draw from and it can't really do the legwork to make up for it. And for some reason it's all color-corrected to sepia???? Why did they do that.

For example, I followed this up by watching Sadako vs. Kayako (2016) and that thing is absolutely BONKERS. It'd been six months since i last watched it and I'd forgotten how much i love that movie. It's not the slow, atmospheric psychological horror of either Ringu or Ju-On, it's garish and ridiculous but it remains rooted in terror even as it goes over the top. Intermixed with the "haha what the fuck" is unsettling surrealism and it whips

I mean, as a basic consideration, but it's not like there's much to spoil. it's a Grudge movie. Worse, it's an American Grudge movie, with American ghosts.

It's weird that Raimi keeps trying to bring that over here because his sensibilities are absolutely nowhere near compatible with what makes j-horror work.

And the funny thing is, J-Horror can do over the top schlock just fine, it's just different.
