  1. What is the point that the horror circles around? If it is Halloween – kinda in the title – then you release it then. If it is summer camp and related ideas, you release it in the run up to summer. So, Friday the 13, being a actual date, is needed to be released on the way to that date. Simple.

    Rereading the Pelbar Cycle, as I needed something to relax with at the end of the day. And I gotta say, early ’80’s post apocalyptic fiction is so much better than what currently passes. Fun, not too preachy, decently written. It does confirm to me that most SF from that period is written at a level perfectly suited for 8th graders, give or take.Report

  2. Assuming my wife doesnt go into labor I’m pretty sure I’ll be seeing It opening night. I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for the old made for tv version but I’m not feeling the excitement for this one. My wife on the other hand is a big Stephen King fan.

    I try to see something scary in the theater around Halloween time every fall. Last year it was Blair Witch which I didn’t think was terrible but not great either. I watched the Void on Netflix the other weekend which is definitely worth a viewing if youre a fan of the genre.Report

    1. You should play some of the old Thief fanmissions.
      I highly recommend the (remastered) one that killed the playtester.

      Also, Grim Fandango.Report

  3. Podcasts podcasts and more podcasts. Good times.

    Also, one blushes to admit, nearly two seasons of The League in 2 days (and the third on order from the library).Report

  4. I’m cautiously hopeful that IT will be a good movie. It looks to capture more of the horror of the book and less of the sap (the television show did the reverse).Report
