Thought I'd share these images from THE SHINING: A VISUAL AND CULTURAL HAUNTING, put out by Rough Trade Books. It's a fantastic collection of analysis, ephemera, trivia, and photos.
My #bookreview is brief/won't spoil, to spread good, great, & spectacular #horror#books far & wide.
💙📚 THE ONLY WAY OUT IS THROUGH by Paul Michael Anderson is a compelling collection w familiar tropes that go to dark & unexpected places. Full of cosmic horror goodness, with dashes of folk & creature horror for extra flavor, this novella & 4 short stories will keep you entertained & satiated. (Cemetery Gates)
Another rainy weekend. It's a good day to stay in with horror movies. I was invited to watch an early screener of Pandemonium. I gave it a 7 out of 10 stars on IMDB Available May 27 in the US, Canada, UK and Ireland. On the same day, Pandemonium will be available on major VOD platforms, including Apple TV and Prime Video. French with English subtitles. My mini review is posted at https://wellwortharead.blogspot.com/2024/05/movie-review-pandemonium.html@horror@horrorfilm#comedyhorror
It's not my folklore to use, but if anyone creates or has created a story involving the idea that all this (gestures at current society) is mass Wendigo-ism, I will be the first to read/watch/buy/share/champion.
Anybody have recommendations like this? @horrorbooks@horror
I haven't seen #Abigail yet but it appears to share some similarities with the French movie #LIVID (aka #LIVIDE.) At least peripherally.
I think they are probably very different in tone, but LIVID is on #Shudder (or it was) and I HIGHLY recommend it. And I'd be curious as to what people who've seen Abigail think. (No spoilers, though, please.)
This highly anticipated sequel to Until Summer Comes Around takes place ten years after the most momentous summer of Rocky's life.
Things have settled down in Old Orchard Beach in the years since the murders. The tourists are back as usual and Rocky lives a mostly quiet life, dealing as best he can with the knowledge that monsters are real, and that the first and only girl he ever loved was one of them.
