Tomorrow in your inboxes: a movie about a killer virus, cruel and incompetent government officials, and other things we have no experience with in recent memory.

In which I realize that I am extremely late to the party with respect to Hellraiser’s channeling of continental philosophy. www.deadofnightletter.com/the-cenobite...
gotta see that—think she’s got a new one in the works about Amazon/UPS
Saw this yesterday at Asteroid Vinyl in Inglewood.

Kazunari Ninomiya in Exit 8
Also, I get into a productive meeting of video game forms and cinematic ones in Exit 8.
Rewatched a couple of years ago—still a certified banger.

And I begin reading @crossroadsfolk.bsky.social issue 1, which reveals itself immediately to be a must-read for anyone interested in horror and genre.

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").
