Watched The Asphyx (pronounced "ass fix.") This may be the most English horror movie ever! All the characters sounded ridiculously posh. Cool idea and gruesome finish though. I need a ring tone of the crazy noise the Assfix makes!

Have just bought myself a copy of Scratch Moss by @davidmbarnett.bsky.social

Long lost heirs, a secret will, a stash of missing diamonds and a rapidly rising body count ensue.
Surprisingly wholesome silly fun.

"A metafictional mind-melter where time means nothing and everything at once, Joe Butler’s third novel blends visual elements, epistolary sections, and cyclical narratives to plumb the depths of loss of grief of horror."
