I’m sure some of you are going to Halloween parties this weekend, but it’s such a cheat. Such a cheat. Still, I’m going as a sexy Ghostbuster on Saturday and Wednesday. Should be sweet.

Blondie-to-your-right’s name is Teresa Palmer. If she looks familiar, that’s because you probably saw her in December Boys or The Grudge 2. I skipped both, so I … Continue reading

Lovecraft novels. Those were lovely, tentacle-filled times… Ever since I’ve had this site (1997? 1998?) there’s always been a hint … Continue reading
