@kjaycee.bsky.social EPISODE 2 WAS MUCH BETTER! "The Story of the Mysterious Tunnel / Ice Cream Bus" ASKS DUAL QUESTIONS OF 'HOW ARE GHOSTS LIKE RADIATION?' & 'WHAT FRESH HELL CAN JAPAN IMAGINE FROM A STRANGER GIVING SUGARY TREATS TO CHILDREN OUT OF A CREEPY VEHICLE?' #FILM41 #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

@kjaycee.bsky.social CHASTISING L.A. MOST VIGOROUSLY FOR EPISODE 1, WHICH I *WILL NOT COUNT* FOR #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN, MARKING FIRST MISS OF 2026!

IT OSTENSIBLY HAS GHOSTS & A SEANCE AND SO FORTH, BUT REALLY, L.A., 'THE ADDAMS FAMILY BUT JAPANESE AND YOU HATE ALMOST EVERYONE' IS NOT PROPER SPOOKY.

@kjaycee.bsky.social ALSO, I SHOULD SAY SOMETHING ABOUT #FILM40 'STING OF DEATH' FOR #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN. AND THAT IS: OH MY DAVROS. THAT WAS THE WORST RUBBER SUIT MONSTER COSTUME THE DALEK HAS EVER SEEN. IT'S SO BAD IT ACTUALLY FAILS IN A WAY I HAD NEVER IMAGINED A MONSTER COSTUME *COULD* FAIL!

I AM SHOCKED. SHOCKED!

#61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

SHE WAS ASKED FOR *A* FAVORITE, SHE GAVE 3 FAVORITES AND SAID THEY WERE TIED. SO IT FEELS PRETTY CLEAR!

NOW REGRETTING THAT NONE OF MY PREVIOUS STOCKPILE ACQUISITIONS GOT 'CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF' AS THE BEST BLU-RAY IS APPARENTLY OUT OF STOCK.

SOMETHING FOR NEXT YEAR PERHAPS!

#61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

TOO MANY, I SAY!

ALSO, QUERY FOR THE RULES COMMITTEE. IF DARCY RESPONDED TO A QUESTION ABOUT WHAT HER FAVORITE WEREWOLF MOVIES WERE BY LISTING 3, ARE THOSE 'FAVORITE' MOVIES FOR THE PURPOSES OF #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN? OR DID SHE NEED TO SAY THE WORD 'FAVORITE' HERSELF?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_9m...

I SAW THAT ONE! BUT ISN'T IT TAKING DIALOGUE FROM A SONG IN THE FILM AND PUTTING IT OVER AN UNRELATED SCENE?

THAT'S TOO MANY CONCEPTS! #DALEKDISAPPROVAL #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN #SORTOF

A SHOCKING FAILURE OF THE BLUESKY SYSTEM THAT I DO NOT HAVE A PROPER 'MOST DELIGHTFUL' GIF TO RESPOND TO THAT!

IN OTHER NEWS, STOCKING UP FOR #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN 2027 HAS ALREADY BEGUN WITH THE PURCHASE OF A FANCY 4K OF A CHRISTOPHER LEE MOVIE THIS DALEK HAS YET TO SEE. REPLENISH THE RESERVES!!

GREAT VALUE TORGO *AT BEST*. PERHAPS A SHUR FINE TORGO OR EVEN AN UNREGULATED GAS STATION HERBAL 'ENHANCEMENT' LINE TORGO!

#61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN #FILM40

@kjaycee.bsky.social 20 MINUTES IN AND I CAN ALREADY ASSURE YOU: 'STING OF DEATH' HAS A STORE-BRAND TORGO.

ALSO IT'S BAD. IT'S SO BAD.

#61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

@kjaycee.bsky.social SPEAKING OF SEASONAL, #FILM40 OF #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN IS THE VERSION OF A CREATURE FEATURE SO NEW THAT IT TECHNICALLY DOESN'T RELEASE UNTIL TOMORROW! THE GLORIOUS RETURN OF MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATRE AND THE NOT-SO-GLORIOUS RETURN OF 1966'S CREATURE FEATURE, 'STING OF DEATH'!

SCARIER THAN GIANT BUGS?!

WELL... PROBABLY SCARIER THAN 'MIMIC 2', ANYWAY! NOT THE MOST AUSPICIOUS START. BUT IT *IS* A CREATURE FEATURE *AND* A SEQUEL, NO DENYING THAT!

#61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN #FILM39

@kjaycee.bsky.social UPDATE: AFTER SOME DITHERING, NEXT MOVIE FOR #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN WAS SELECTED! 'MIMIC 2' GETS POINTS FOR A SEQUEL *AND* ANOTHER CREATURE FEATURE! I LIKE BIG BUGS AND I CANNOT LIE, KIRSTEN. OTHER #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN VIEWERS CAN'T DENY (THE BIG BUG FILMS)! #FILM39

@kjaycee.bsky.social PONDERING WHAT DIRECTION TO GO TONIGHT FOR #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN!

A 70S MOVIE? A DARCY MOVIE? ANOTHER CREATURE FEATURE? A SEQUEL?

GOT TO CHECK OFF SOME OF THOSE BOXES!

@kjaycee.bsky.social WIKIPEDIA HAS ME INTRIGUED BY THE B-SIDE OF THAT SAME EPISODE, BECAUSE IT WAS DIRECTED BY JOE DANTE AND STARS CARY ELWES AND BRAIN DENNEHY. DID THIS DOOMED AND QUICKLY ABANDONED ANTHOLOGY MAKE A PACT WITH SATAN TO LAND ALL THESE HUMANS?

#FILM38 #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

@kjaycee.bsky.social THIS DALEK'S UP LATE AND WAITING ON TECH DALEK TO FINISH SOMETHING NEFARIOUS, SO WHY NOT PICK SOME ADDITIONAL SEGMENTS FROM THAT SAME SERIES? #FILM37 OF #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN IS 'A VIEW THROUGH THE WINDOW', BASED ON THE SHORT STORY 'WINDOW'. MOST SUPERIOR ENTRY SO FAR!

@kjaycee.bsky.social OTOP, 'RENOVATION' WAS A LOT LESS FUN. LOW-RENT, CUT-DOWN 'THE SHINING' WITH THE ALLEGEDLY BIG TWIST ABOUT THE HOUSE AND PAST THEREOF OVERTLY SPOILED OVER AND OVER THE WHOLE EPISODE?

#FILM36 #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

@kjaycee.bsky.social TECH DALEK: WE STILL HAVE SOME DELIVERY PIZZA IF YOU WANT TO PUT A DEAD RAT ON IT!

#NOTHELPFULTECHDALEK
#61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN #FILM35

@kjaycee.bsky.social YOU DIDN'T TELL ME 'DEAD AIR' HAD LOU DIAMOND PHILLIPS!

ALSO, *FUN* 'DEAD AIR FACTS' TONIGHT INCLUDE THAT THE SAUCER DINNER WAS DELIVERY PIZZA AND THAT SNAKE LOBBY #1 HAS A BIG, JUICY RAT WARMING UP EVEN AS THE SHORT FILM PLAYS.

SYNERGY! #FILM35 #61FILMSOFHALLOWEEN

@kjaycee.bsky.social FOR MY NEXT TWO FILMS, DALEK DECIDED TO JOIN YOU IN THE EARLY 2000S' TV ANTHOLOGY SLUMS WITH THE EXACT SAME EPISODES OF 'DEADLY VISIONS'! #FILM35 AND #FILM36 ARE 'DEAD AIR' AND 'RENOVATION' RESPECTIVELY.
