double dream: old jams on the news, birdy field trip bird swap
i had a couple weird dreams back to back this morning:
in the first, i was in an unfinished basement watching the WTHR 5pm news. mom and dad were upstairs. anne marie tiernon mentioned someone found an old box in the attic of a muncie home containing some lost cassettes. she and scott swan proceeded to read aloud all the names of the old jam tapes the pub sigs made while we were at ball state. some of them i didn't recognize, but she did say "monapipu" "improviliminal" and "tingle". scott swan even misread one with a medical procedure, something like "boy, we haven't done an appendectomy in a while". they had a cardboard box on the desk and were pulling them out one by one. i shouted for mom as they started and she hit a button on the vcr to record it. they were acting like it was a the world's biggest discovery and i was sitting there in shock. after they finished i stopped the vcr and rewound the tape, but realized the tape was already recording when she hit record again, which actually stopped the recording as they started reading the titles. stan sollars suddenly was there and i explained to him that someone must have left all their vintage pub sigs recordings behind when they left college. it was very strange.
in the second dream, i was sitting at a park bench relating a story to josh hart about my wife taking the birds to a bird store on a field trip. they had just returned and there was a commotion in the bird room. i noticed mango wouldn't go into her cage, because there was another mango already in it. turns out my wife had accidentally brought a 2nd sun conure home, not realizing she left rosie the quaker behind. so naturally i put on a pair of red sweatpants and white sneakers (with no shirt) and took the new sun conure in my hand. i got to the bird store, trying to suck in my no-shirt wearing gut, and explained what happened to the owner. she was skeptical at first, but i think she wanted me and my gut out of there. i found rosie and brought her home.
the end??

Movie Review: The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
tonight's feature: The Matrix Resurrections (2021) on HBOmax
The Matrix Resurrections isn’t terrible. I mean, if you take the original Matrix script and kind-of, sort-of repeat a majority of it, but set it 60 years in the future with a ton of flashbacks, you’re going to make some Matrix fans happy. Just take some dead characters and find a way to give them new life, stick them back into a parallel plot, and boom: instant reboot. That doesn’t mean I didn’t like it, I thought it was mostly decent and it got me yearning to watch the entire series again.
Our hapless hero Thomas Anderson is back in the Matrix but he doesn’t know it. He has weird dreams and feels like he's losing his grip on reality. Kind of like watching Keanu Reeves acting, I’m never 100% sure he’s doing a good job, but… woah, is he? Anyhow, Trinity is also back in the Matrix, as Tiffany, and he kind of remembers her, he thinks, maybe. He’s now a famous video game programmer (he developed a mind blowing game called The Matrix)... a job he apparently isn’t into. He's living a shitty life and he can’t quite figure out why he hates it. Day in and day out, he takes those blue pills and sees his therapist. Until one day a woman named Bugs and a program called Morpheus realize they’ve found him, the legendary Neo, hidden under a scrambled RSI (Residual Self Image) and looking like an old man. Now they’ve got to convince him what’s happening, extract him, rescue Trinity and do a lot of punching and kicking in slow motion before a big climax. Did I mention stopping bullets and flying? That too.
Obviously, serious fans of the trilogy might be thrilled with this, it ticks off all the nostalgia boxes. Some people might be a little more critical of some of the rehashed story lines and I get it. I fell somewhere in-between and ultimately I’m ok with it. If they were trying to top the original, they failed. But if they were trying to make a passable copycat story for fans of the series that could make a few bucks, they hit somewhere left of the bullseye. 7 pink goo filled energy pods out of 10.

Movie Review: The Exorcist (1973)
tonight's feature: The Exorcist (1973) on HBOmax
. night 100 #31NightsofHalloween
Not sure what I could say about The Exorcist that hasn’t already been said. Even though I own a DVD copy, I haven’t watched it in years and it feels like a new movie when I do watch it. I can say that I will never be as scared as when I caught it at a friends house on HBO a billion years ago as a pre-tweener. It scared the living shit out of me. Now when I watch I end up laughing during the scary bits.
In case you didn’t know, 12 year old Regan admits to playing with a Ouija board by herself with a spirit named Captain Howdy. Captain Howdy actually turns out to be Pazuzu, an ancient demon ready to do some possessing, shake some beds, maybe slip in a quick murder, say all the dirty words and projectile vomit with amazing accuracy. Megan’s mom Chris can’t take any more doctors or psychiatrists telling her Regan needs more tests, so she turns to Father Karras, who doesn’t even believe in exorcisms… until Pazuzu gets under his skin with a lot of talk about his deceased mother. I totally had forgotten about these other side characters, Burke Dennings (murdered off screen) and that detective guy coming around for info on the murder.
Mostly I am amazed The Exorcist came out when it did. So much controversy surrounded the film, barely escaping an X rating, communities trying to ban it in their towns, and a theater actually convicted in a trial (that was later thrown out). Some of the reported audience reactions included fainting and nausea, with one woman claiming she miscarried during the movie. A few theaters even provided Exorcist ‘barf bags’. Another reviewer said there was so much vomit in the bathroom at the showing he attended that it was impossible to reach the sinks. Other theaters arranged for an ambulance to be on-call. Some individuals even had to be coaxed out of hiding places inside the theater after the movie ended. People were being straight-up traumatized by this movie. I know I was disturbed out of my gourd when I first saw it.
Basically The Exoricst is one of the best horror films ever made, if not THE best. 10 bullseye projectile vomit blasts out of 10.

Movie Review: Jennifer's Body (2009)
tonight's feature: Jennifer's Body (2009) on Prime
. night 99 #31NightsofHalloween
(SPOILERS) Jennifer’s Body has that angry teenage energy and doesn’t care what you think about it. That leaves me halfway between loving it and telling it to be home before 10pm or else. On the one hand, it’s a crafty, entertaining story about two best friends after one of them becomes possessed by a demon. On the other, it’s riddled with some cringe-worthy dialogue. Jennifer and Needy, best friends since childhood, head to see a touring band play their podunk dive bar. Jennifer being the high school hottie and Needy her nerdy friend, they interact with the band before the show starts. After they narrowly escape a fire, the band takes Jennifer off to the woods to do a ritual sacrifice to make their band popular, assuming she’s a virgin. Instead, she becomes a blood-hungry succubus.
Lots of entertainment value here. Jennifer's Body was also a big kickstart to the careers of several cast members. I just wish i was 17 years old while I was watching. 7 high school snappy retorts out of 10.

Movie Review: Soylent Green (1973)
tonight's feature: Soylent Green (1973) on Blu-ray
. night 98 #31NightsofHalloween
Soylent Green was pretty dang lame for being such a storied classic. Granted, I went 50 years without watching this movie since I already knew the ending. SPOILER: it’s people!
The year is 2022, the city is New York City. The oceans are exhausted and the climate is one heatwave after heatwave. Everyone is sweating all the time, unless they live in one of those fancy high rise apartments. There is hardly any food left, and definitely no meat unless you’re rich. Then suddenly a bigwig from the Soylent corporation is murdered and detective Thorn is on the case, but only after he pilfered the apartment of food, booze, soap and some giant books for his old roommate Sol. Later he comes back to make sweet love to the ‘furniture’, the attractive, apartment-live-in, 21 year old concubine named Shirl. But it turns out the books he gave to Sol set in motion a chain of events: Sol turns the books in to the ‘Supreme Exchange’ and they determine the oceans can’t even produce the plankton used for Soylent Green anymore, and it’s … MADE OUT OF PEOPLE… so Sol decides to kill himself via assisted suicide (naturally). Thorn tries to stop him, but it’s too late. Sol tells Thorn on his deathbed the dirty secret and now Thorn must find the “proof”.
Thorn rides into the Soylent factory on the top of a human body dump truck, sees some bodies being dumped, gets chased, ends up on a conveyor belt full of Soylent Green wafers, escapes and then gets chased again before declaring “SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!” after which, the credits roll. So beyond seeing bodys and the green wafers in the same factory, he doesn’t really have much proof to speak of.
My other big beef with the film (pun intended) is the point where Thorn tells Sol he’s never had beef stew. Except the film is set in 2022 and Thorn is roughly 49 years old at the time of filming, which would make him born in 1972 or something? So you’re telling me he never had beef stew even though he grew up in the 70s? Doubtful. Should have set the movie in 2062. Overall I will admit it’s a can't-live-without-it classic, so save your angry responses. But maybe it could use a more dynamic remake. 7 stalks of rare celery out of 10.

Movie Review: Tumbbad (2018)
tonight's feature: Tumbbad (2018) on Prime
. night 97 #31NightsofHalloween
Tumbbad is a Hindi horror-fantasy film set in 19th century India, telling the tale of one man’s quest for the hidden treasure deep under a well inside an old decrepit mansion.
As a young boy, Vinayak hears about the treasure under lord Sarkar’s mansion. His mother, a mistress of lord Sarkar, has to feed Sarkar’s elderly and grotesque grandmother nightly as she sleeps. If she wakes up, she’ll try to eat you or worse. When his brother and lord Sarkar die, his mother makes him promise to never return to Tumbbad and they leave for Pune. After growing up, he returns anyway to visit his great-grandmother, who has become an immortal monster with a tree growing out of her chest. She promises to tell him how to find the treasure if he ends her suffering.
Eventually he starts showing up in town with gold pieces and over time he becomes wealthy. He sells his gold pieces to an opium dealer and ends up traveling every so often back to Tumbbad to return with more gold. After a while his opium dealer starts getting curious and ends up going to the mansion himself to find some of the treasure. What he doesn’t know, the cursed god Hastar resides inside the womb of the goddess under the mansion to guard the treasure. Without knowing what he is doing, Hastar attacks him and he himself becomes a monster embedded in the wall of the well / womb.
Years later, Vinayak decides to teach his son Pandurang his secret of how to trick Hastar, swiping at his loincloth and picking up the coins while Hastar is distracted. His son comes up with a plan to steal the entire loincloth but that plan goes horribly wrong as the film comes to it’s terrifying climax.
A lot of stuff to digest in Tumbbad, but an epic story that's well worth it. 9 doughy dolls out of 10.

Movie Review: Edge of the Knife (2018)
tonight's feature: Edge of the Knife (2018) on Shudder
. night 96 #31NightsofHalloween
Edge of the Knife is a 2018 Canadian film about a Haida family and one member estranged in the wilderness who becomes the Gaagiixiid, “the wildman”. This is the first feature film ever to be spoken only in the Haida language, and it shows. Much like the native language, the movie is careful and ponderous with the story.
Set in the 19th century among the scenic landscape of Haida Gwaii, also known as the Queen Charlotte Islands, Adiitsʹii and Kwa prepare for the winter. On the morning before Kwa and family are to head south, Adiitsʹii takes Kwa’s son out to search for black cod. Unfortunately there is some kind of accident, Gaas dies and Adiitsʹii takes off into the wild. The remaining film is one man in a grass skirt trying to survive the harsh winter with no fire or weapons, until the family returns and realizes he is still alive and must be dealt with.
A captivating story of survival and betrayal, no doubt, but somehow I ended up mistaking it for a horror film, which it most decidedly is not. 7 sea urchin spikes in your face out of 10.

Movie Review: I See You (2019)
tonight's feature: I See You (2019) on Prime
. night 95 #31NightsofHalloween
I See You was proof yet again that solid writing can make or break a film. In this movie, what started out as one thing, swiftly became another and yet another thing over the course of 90-some minutes of shifting perspectives with pretty spectacular results.
Greg Harper and his wife Jackie are on the outs, and he’s just been named lead investigator on a case of a missing local boy. Strange occurrences start to add up and Jackie seems to think it’s their conflicted son Conner acting out. But the truth is much more complicated and sinister, and the movie shifts narratives to devastating effect. Unfortunately I can't reveal much more without ruining this epic story.
It’s been a while since I’ve been that surprised at a few movie twists and I just want them all to be that good. 9 green pocketknives out of 10.
