I've got my Mother tickets for Thursday, but I just saw Puppet Master at the Drafthouse, a childhood bucket list nominee for the big screen. The audience was comically perplexed in New Braunfels, TX, of all places.

Never seen TT!

Is that the one Jamie Lee did after Halloween?

EDIT : Yes of course it is! Putting it near the top of my 'finally get round to watching' list!

I watched it when Scream/Shout released the BD a few years ago. It's definitely worth a re-watch.

I am living in Connecticut for a bit and drove to the house location used in the film Let's scare Jessica to death.
Was always curious to see if it was still standing... and it is. About to fall from decay. Hope they come out with the soundtrack in the near future.

Also will check out the house that was used in House by the Cemetery and I spit on your grave in the future.

Awesome pic, Evan. You picked a fine time of year to be in the Northeast.

I'm currently working my way through the recent Hulu anthology series, Dimension 404. I like it quite a bit. It's unabashedly lower budget and a bit cheesy, but it's all heart and full of cool concepts, and fun, if predictable, twists.

I just watched Killer Mermaid, a Dutch film which was more like a Dutch Oven it was so bad, and then The Devil's Candy which I loved.

It's not a Dutch film but from Serbia. Close. But very different.

Wait is Connecticut getting fall weather already? Because it got all muggy in New York again these past two weeks and I'm yearning for some cool air.

Oh It's Serbian, is it.

That didn't improve it.

It is really fun, Static. Speaking of stars, I just watched the first two episodes of Star Trek: Discovery. I liked them pretty well. They are pretty clearly trying to incorporate some modern socio-political issues into the show, but that was always a big part of Roddenberry's original vision from what I understand. Unfortunately, the music was only so-so. The cues were largely fine, if forgettable, but the theme is really odd to me. A mash-up of several styles. Seems like they went for it all instead of committing to a single direction.

Did a robocop/total recall double feature myself last week (and the running man too once I got on an Arnold kick, why the hell not) and it was....a very pleasant evening.

Watched The Girl With All the Gifts. Very meh movie, starts off well enough and then meanders along without direction. Weak script. Score sounds a lot like Utopia Season One, which isn't a bad thing. Anyone else check it out? It's on Prime now.

I watched it a half year ago. I actually really liked it. Thought it was a very original take on the zombie genre. The beginning was the best part of it I agree.

Killer Mermaid : haha, looks shocking!

Verhoeven 'guilty pleasures': for shame guys! How could you?? PV 80s-90s joints are 100% licky sucky fucky heaven, every one a damn classic! Don't test me now.

Girl with all the Gifts : ...is great! Though it had added flavour for me as much of it was shot in my neck o the woods (uk midlands) standing in for The Big Smoke.

I hope you are including Showgirls, because I sure am. ;)

I'm on the same page with you on that. I watched it with friends that loved it, but I just got sidetracked the whole time. It reminded me of Hanna (remember that one?), where the reveals actually suppressed the anticipation rather than ignited it.
