Current mood.

#31DaysOfHalloween continues with day 13 and Return of the Killer Tomatoes. I first saw this movie during the late ‘90s, when it aired on Bravo in the UK. The satire and juvenile humour appealed to me and I watched and rewatched this film multiple times. John Astin, George Clooney... a fuzzy tomato... what’s not to love? 🍅🎃#AllKillerNoFiller

Day 12 of #31DaysOfHalloween and I’m rounding out the night with Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). 🤡🎃 #AllKillerNoFiller

Anyone want to take a guess at what I’m currently watching? 🕸

Another flashback to 2013, when I was blasting the screen on an Operation Wolf arcade cabinet. Good times!

Flashback to 2013, when I got to play on this beauty of a pinball machine based on Batman Forever. 👌😍

Day 11 of #31DaysOfHalloween and today’s movie is Rosemary’s Baby (1968). This film - along with Scream, Halloween, Psycho & Buffy - was my gateway into horror when I was a teen. I’ve watched this movie countless times since and it still creeps me out. Plus, Ruth Gordon’s performance as the busy-body next door neighbour is simply perfect. 👶🏻🎃#AllKillerNoFiller

Day 10 of #31DaysOfHalloween and it’s time for Alien (1979). This movie celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, so it simply had to go in my Halloween-a-thon.🥚🎃 #AllKillerNoFiller

Day 9 of #31DaysOfHalloween and this evening it’s the turn of When A Stranger Calls Back (1993). I watched this movie (and it’s predecessor) for the first time this year and thought it was a great little film - much better than I expected for what is a TV movie. The opening 20 minute sequence is so tense and up there with the opening sequence of Scream. 📞🎃 #AllKillerNoFiller
