Looks like I finally have have access to In The Mouth Of Madness, through the obscure streaming service my local library uses (not Hoopla), so I know what I'm watching for the second time in years this weekend!

It's also "free with ads" on YouTube, which means just free if you have an adblocker.

Kanopy is a lot more expensive for libraries to get a subscription to (this also determines how many kanopy credits you get in a month)

if you're a comic book nerd though, it is absolutely ridonkulous how many great comics you can read for free on Hoopla (including lots of Creepy and Eerie collections for us horror heads). Even before Comixology got bought by Amazon and poo poo the bed, Hoopla had rendered it completely obsolete for me.

Huh I didn't know a Pet Semetary prequel was coming

I found out about it two days ago, via a sports website - https://defector.com/apologies-to-the-makers-of-the-pet-sematary-prequel-but-i-would-call-this-dog-my-little-sweetie-baby-and-rub-its-belly

I'm working on finalizing my list for October, and there will be 20 countries in the world (or "countries," since Letterboxd considers Christmas Island, Svarbald, the US Virgin Islands, etc. as countries) that I have not seen a movie from. Due largely to watching a lot of global-warming-related documentaries from small island nations over the course of the summer; most of which should probably count as horror movies, as I'll submit that the central thesis of a horror movie is "We're hosed."

18 of these are available online. I was trying to get the other two via interlibrary loan, but it looks like that's a no-go. (Thanks for nothing, University of Iowa.)

Instead, I snagged the last copy of one of them off Amazon France, and



How the gently caress does this company make any money? (That's about $0.60 shipping from France, to the US, in a week.)

The other one, Les Saignantes, was apparently freely available as a swf file on the now defunct africanfilmlibrary.com about a decade ago, and while archive.org has it, I've no idea how you get Flash to run nowadays. DVDLady somehow has it.

I thought Kanopy didn’t have credits anymore? At least that was the talk when my library was looking into subscribing.

Looking at mine it still has credits. I get 10 a month, which I was given to understand is a lot (my library is very well funded). Maybe that's a legacy thing though.

If you've got multiple library networks in your area that you can get a membership to, you can sometimes get extra that way (I was able to get 20 a month this way for a while, but one of my cards expired and I haven't had a chance to renew it yet).

Our library has it, and I just pissed away 1 of my 10 credits on a bad Justwatch link.

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I have Kanopy and Hoopla but only 3 credits for each. Kanopy is the much better movie selection but Hoopla has all the other stuff including comics. The 3 credit limit a month can be annoying though. Like if you wanna watch a tv show or mini series each episode is a credit.

But it’s free so I can’t complain.

Hoopla is good because it has some absolutely bizarre pulls. I'm not saying the live action King of Fighters movie is good or anything, but when I had a morbid curiosity it was the only place offering it. It also had My Boyfriend's Back, which I had previously only watched on a VHS blind buy.

this is sort of what I figured the case was so I’m not mad about it or anything! maybe it would behoove me to dip into becoming a Comix Guy…

I have kanopy and I don't think there are credits but I've also never watched more than a few things in a month. Mine also seemingly has a much smaller library than what other people say and what their website says they have, so maybe there's a plan with unlimited views but less content?

My hoopla has like 5 credits a month I think.

There are specific content libraries that you have to add to your base subscription, it's why we didn't end up going with it. I remember seeing a lot of Argento on JustWatch that wasn't there when I logged into the Free Library's Kanopy.

Also Snoop Dogg's childhood crush was Pam Grier and then his first onscreen kiss is in Bones with... Pam Grier. He's said in interviews it's the most nervous he's ever been. It's so :3:

I think it might've been on the extras on the Bones DVD, but when Snoop's sharing that story he just gets the most adorable little shy smile.

Going from the merch they had for Scream, the popcorn tub maybe at best will hold equal to a small or medium popcorn. In general, the special tubs that are shaped tend to be disappointing as far as a holds snacks container goes. My Ghostface tub's become a remotes caddy. The drink cup's somewhere between a small and medium. I use my Ghostface ones as jewelry containers so I don't have earrings and rings get carried off by a cat. Plushie's pretty much worth it's price. The Ghostface one I have is very pillowy and claimed by Bava-cat as her pillow.

Just started watching Lair of the White Worm for the first time, knowing only that it takes place in the English countryside and features Hugh Grant, and I am absolutely dying that the movie's first sentence is virtually unintelligible English 'OYYY WOTS ALL THIS THEN' gibberish. Absolutely rules.

I remember watching this on video back in 1990/1991 and thinking it was very bizarre and neat and not being familiar with any of the stars; watching it again a few years ago now that I recognized Hugh Grant and Peter Capaldi from other things was a real hoot.

You got that wrong, Evil Dead Trap 2 is extremely good on every level. And Evil Dead Trap 1 is already very rapey.

Think Manhunter as more of a straight up weird horror movie.

Pablo Larrain's (director of Spencer, which is better) new film, Netflix-exclusive, black-and-white (mostly) horror-comedy where Pinochet's a vampire that wants to die because he's no longer having fun, his character's been dishonored, and his family's a mess that want money.

They call it "unscripted" but it seems like what they mean is that it's using the cinematic language of truecrime documentaries to tell supernatural stories. Fun idea! Hopefully Carpenter isn't just cashing a check and had some real creative involvement.
