Some fun creepy pasta over here.

Siren: The Voices of Shelley Beattie, 2025 - ★★★★

A muscular woman in a black bikini top and leather pants is featured under the title Siren: The Voices of Shelley Beattie, an HBO Original.

I didn't know who Shelley was before watching this, but this was the doc I needed to see right now. It's a well made movie of a fascinating, impressive, and tragic person.

Hope, 2026

A fierce woman holding a gun aims at a menacing, monstrous creature while the word HOPE appears prominently between them.

Man there’s so much of this movie that rules, but there’s also so many checkhovs guns that are set up and then politely holstered that I didn’t feel the tension of the setups concluded. The ending truly sucked.

Media Diet: September 2024

I had a draft saved from 2 years ago about my media diet. Some may say it’s too late to finish and publish it, but I say let’s sit with what I was peeping back in 2024.

Mystery Science Theater 3000: The RiffTrax Experiments — Sting of Death, 2026

A man stands smiling between two robots with a textured ball in front labeled Mystery Science Theater 3000: The RiffTrax Experiments.

I laughed a lot.

Coyote vs. Acme, 2026 - ★★★

Wile E. Coyote is struggling to push a large, lit bomb up a steep hill while the Road Runner watches from the top.

Surprisingly heartwarming! Others have noted the anti-capitalist themes, which are certainly here, and made more relevant by the movie almost not seeing release so Warner could write it off on their taxes. It's also got some solid jokes and Will Forte is always great. I didn't love how the movie looked; the animation is all 3D made to look like hand drawn, and it ends up looking like a video game. All and all, good fun.

The Invite, 2026 - ★★★½

Four people are engaged in a warm, intimate conversation around a table set with food and drinks in a cozy indoor setting.

Very funny. Relationships go boom.

Clocked.

Text in the image says: Your dialect map. Redder areas talk more like you; bluer areas least. You talk most like someone from New Jersey—about 62% of your answers match a typical resident. &10;&10;The map is red over New Jersey and western New York, quickly shading to orange the yellow outside those places. Most of the rest of the country is blue.

Two men in suits are riding a giant bottle of boba tea as it pours over a cityscape, with lightning striking in the background and text reading nirvanna the band the show the movie.

Watched on Friday August 7, 2026.

Focus on the cat, ignore the mess. 🐈

Blue-Ray case of Difficult People, the complete series. It's signed: "To Chris, with love and gratitude. — Julie Klausner, June 2026"

I got my signed copy of Difficult People. Great comedy on physical media won’t solve waves hands, but it sure helps.

Hairspray, 1988 - ★★★★

A man and a woman are posing with their legs crossed against a red background, with the colorful word Hairspray displayed prominently between them.

Still the best.

Pure mood 🐈

The drama of soccer.

I’m just endlessly fascinated with the Hell Gate bridge.

I don’t think I ever posted this: Hellgate NYC, a great, local, journalist owned New York City news site, sends incredible T-shirts to their subscribers.

Following up on my God of Thunder post, it included some wonderful BBS information. You gotta love it.

God of Thunder for DOS 🕹️

Auto-generated description: Thor, the Norse God of Thunder, is battling a large, crowned serpent, Jörmungandr, in a grassy field with a mountain in the background and the title God of Thunder displayed above.

Does anyone remember God of Thunder?

No, not the Marvel movie, or the KISS song, or even the Greek mythological God, but the DOS game about that Norse mythological God.

This God of Thunder is a 1993 …

Toy Story 5, 2026

Popular animated characters from Toy Story are gathered together behind a friendly, animated frog-shaped device displaying the message Hi! Let's play! with the title Toy Story 5 prominently shown above them.

It’s a thin soup at this point.

Evil Dead Burn, 2026

A terrified person is being strangled by a dark, clawed hand with a fiery background and the title Evil Dead Burn displayed.

Felt like a follow up to the 2013 remake in four tone, but way more gross. There’s lots of gore but it was the no blood moment that made me gag.

Construction, am I right?

I don’t know what it’s saying, but this tableau speaks to me.
