Harry Dean Stanton came and saw a performance of Re-Animator the Musical, and afterwards spent about an hour drinking whiskey & smoking weed with us in front of the theatre, regaling us with stories. The nicest guy. A true legend.

Hey reviewers, just a heads up that tagging actors in movies in (very) negative reviews of their films isn’t a cool thing to do. Not that I care that much, but it’s still a bummer to be tagged in a tweet only to read it and see it’s all bad. Just unnecessary.

So I rewatched HALLOWEEN ENDS, aaaaand…I love it. The shock of it the first time left me a bit dazed, but it’s won me over. It’s a wild direction for the franchise, but I think it touched on themes much bigger than just LvM. Some clunkiness but I love its weirdo heart.

As I continue to process our dog Mu’s death, it strikes me that he was dreaming vividly as he went. Fully running & barking and then…nothing. I’d be lying if I said The Sandman and the idea of Dream & Death working in tandem wasn’t comforting & profound for us now.

HALLOWEEN ENDS…I am standing applauding the gargantuan swing they took, but uncertain if it was a good one? I predict time will be kind to this film. I need a rewatch to really form an opinion. But that was a hell of a risk taken, and I’m a fan of that.

Then a long pause and she says “Are you sure this isn’t your popcorn? There’s no one else here.”
So I said “Yes, this is my popcorn.” And I walked into an empty theatre and watched the movie by myself, ate the popcorn, and as I left, yet again the lobby was empty. (End)

Stuart was one of the most important people in my life. I am incredibly lucky to have gotten to work with him, much less be his friend. I'll miss my lunches with him the most. Love you, Stu. I hope you and Buechler are working on something truly bonkers right now.

This is one of the most egregious, hilarious(ly bad), idiotic cinematic “re-edit” type of things I’ve ever seen. Why even do this? 1) Spielberg is perhaps our greatest living cinematic image creators. 2) You want to see…more grass? More sky? Why?

Just a reminder, for International Women’s Day, that many of your very favorite horror films wouldn’t exist without women artists. You like Carpenter? He doesn’t have a career without Debra Hill. Cameron? Not without Gale Ann Hurd. Women are the backbone of horror! Don’t forget!
