The Old Dark House, or, Who Let the Saul Out?
An absolutely bonkers collaboration between James Whale and Boris Karloff, but not that one

Tuesday Tune Two-Fer: Is It Worth It?
Two tunes tangentially related to the pointless discourse around generative AI

The Babadook, or, It’s Nice to Have a Man About the House
Continuing early Spooktober with an excellent movie that I hated watching

What Lies Beneath, or, People Who Live in Glass Houses Shouldn’t Do Rear Window
