I'm traveling, so I'm not as up-to-date as I'd like. Flew into LAX yesterday and it's been wham-bam since, with no slowing down in sight. Fuck - I'll be 50 in March, and I had to fight ALL my 49-year-old lethargy for this trip. A body at rest tends to stay at rest, and all that. Still, I can't complain - seeing good friends, eating Lee's sandwiches every chance I get, and going to see some solid flicks, even if I might not make it to any Beyondfest screenings while I'm here.
Anyway, here's a video for one of my favorite tracks from Revocation's new record, New Gods, New Masters, out last week on Metal Blade. Order the album HERE, and if you get the chance, see these guys live. I saw them back in 2014 on the Summer Slaughter tour and although they were unknown to me at the time, I was a fan by the time their set finished.
This song is just savage! No other word for it.
I'm finding this book very engaging, and what's more, it's kickstarting a lot of interest in the Renaissance, which, admittedly, I know very little about.
31 Days of Halloween:
Two nights ago, I had the treat of seeing Tobe Hooper's 1981 Carnival Slasher The Funhouse on the big screen. Regal Theatres is hosting a Horror movie night every night for the duration of October, and I thought it was awesome that they kicked the month off with this underseen gem.
I remember hearing about this back in the day and it basically being out of print, because it took me quite a few years to track down a fairly cheap copy of the DVD. No idea where that went, and while I'm not sure this is one I'd add to the collection again at this point, I treasured seeing this in a theatre.
The tally so far:
1) Incident On and Off a Mountain Road/The Funhouse
2) Tales From the Crypt Ssn 1 Ep 4, "Dig That Cat... He's Real Gone"/Cabin in the Woods
Read:
As I mentioned a few weeks back, one of the books I'm reading for my Shadow Play Book Two research project is Richard Ellman's Oscar Wilde.
