HELTER SKELTER and
SAKURAN
A hand holding a blu-ray of the film, The Piano. We see the silhouette of a woman from behind and imagery of nature inside this silhouette. At the top of the blu-ray are two Director Approved silver stickers with Jane Campion's signature.
Double approved, thanks Jane Campion!
A hand holding a laserdisc in front of a green chair and green pothos vines. On the laserdisc cover two men playing volleyball while in the foreground, a red bikini woman shows off her body. The title 'Side Out' sizzles in neon pink.
Sometimes you go to an antique store and end up coming home with a still sealed laserdisc of early 90s HBO mainstay Side Out and that's okay.

Three books lined up side by side on a carpeted floor, a colorful box with a flaming skull with 'Tenebrous' and green vine boxed them in. The books are: Dear Stupid Penpal by Rascal Hartley Split Scream Vol 7 by John K Peck and Ide Hennessy, and Kayak by Kristal Stittle
A stack of little weirdsies just showed up from @tenebrouspress.bsky.social:
Dear Stupid Penpal -- Rascal Hartley,
Split Scream Vil. 7 -- John K. Peck /
Γde Hennessy, and
Kayak -- Kristal Stittle

A still image of a metallic pole smashing a glass jar on a tabletop. Subtitles in white describe the sound as [exploding demonic fetus jar sound].
Watching the @terrorvisionvids.bsky.social blu ray of THE JAR and they are still the best in the subtitle game at nailing how a sound sounds.

Image of a page from the book Departure(s) by Julian Barnes where he states that at the beginning of the COVID lockdown that he ordered a 30 discs box set of Ingmar Bergman films where his friends though it was a bit morbid, he protests that Bergman is underrated as a humorist. The first two films were called Torment and Crisis, so he might have gotten off on the wrong foot.
Reading DEPARTURE(S) by Julian Barnes and it makes me smile that he's a Criterion Collection fiend.
