We shall see. I shook hands with the strikers outside and said I was sorry, and that I would donate to the strike fund. My kids were really looking forward to this and are too excited.
My favorites are mostly classics: Alien, Return of the Living Dead, Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978 version has Leonard Nimoy!), Shaun of the Dead, The Thing (1982), Tremors, and Hellraiser usually make my rewatch list.

Apparently the scabs are from other non-union Medieval Times locations (trained etc.) so the show was a “normal” show. No mishaps or anything, which is fine, I don’t want anyone to get hurt.
Lighting was normal but sound was atrocious. Just too loud and too hard to understand the queen and her counselor and what their whole banter was about.
All of the Hellraiser movies (some are great, some are not so great, but it’s worth it to work through all of them in order). The newest was kind of a re-imagining and you can start there if you want).
The Thing - the 1982 film is a classic, but the newest one is a prequel that came decades after the original movie- I’d recommend watching both, starting with the original.
All the alien movies. Some don’t consider Sci-Fi horror to be true horror, but these are essential watching. I consider it to be the best complete horror series of movies ever made.
Vampire’s Kiss (Nicholas Cage) - this is truly bizarre and if you are a Nick Cage fan it should be considered required watching.
Barbarian (2022) - simultaneously mind blowing and absolutely terrifying. Probably the best horror of the past 5 years.
The Mist - and mainly just for the ending which was a total mindfuck.
Train to Busan - This is a Korean made film (with subtitles) in the zombie genre, and is absolutely riveting.
World War Z - an outstanding zombie genre movie - one of the first zombie movies to feature fast moving parkour capable zombies as opposed to the slow moving classic zombies.
American Psycho - scary because this could (and does) happen and you could be standing right next to the next American Psycho right now and not even know it.
Maximum Overdrive - doesn’t get recommended a lot, but it holds up and is a great machine-uprising type of horror.
Event Horizon - propped up as SciFi Horror but this is a classic true horror just with a scifi backdrop.
I WISH there would be a modern remake of “Scanners”. Scanners is great horror from decades past but it just doesn’t hold up well to modern standards-it desperately needs a modern remake.
I had intended to interact more when I joined Lemmy. But given that this is only my 4th comment ever since I joined 4 months ago, that obviously didn’t happen. I’ve always been more of a lurker on most sites anyway, so I guess it’s no surprise that I’d end up being a lurker here too.
I always hated his music, the style and those of his listeners…then I heard the dude talk in Bowling for Columbine and he is so eloquent, logical and reasonable and informed on issues where people constantly try to misframe him I immediately gained enormous respect for him (still dislike his music and style) and everything I’ve ever heard him say since has been the same.
I find it amusing how no one points out how ridiculous it is for ops first reaction to 3 spots of brown in his brand new kettle is for him to throw it away and get a new one
I have always been a prolific commenter on Reddit. I’m doing the same over here. Hadn’t been to Reddit in a couple months. Went over there earlier and explained to someone on r/electricians how an AC to DC transformer works. They permanently banned me, even though my answer was entirely correct, especially for the given problem. Heil spez, you can keep your shit show.
Apparently I violated rule 8 about being involved in diy discussions. Well why the fuck was a diy post allowed in the first place? Truth is, you can’t get schematics on most store bought electronics. You have to know color codes and troubleshoot shit backwards.
