I watched Crimes of the Future last night and it's a mild letdown.  It feels a bit more like a rough draft than a finished script.  Still a lot to like if you're a Cronenberg fan, but it's not his strongest outing. 

Oh yeah, good call.  I have that CS too, but didn't put together that's what this was.  New to vinyl then

First Horns & Hooves full length just dropped. Filthy, disgusting Brooklyn black metal (with a handful of GIDs left in stock):

Neurosis - Given to the Rising repress coming this month. Hopefully other albums will follow up soon...
 
Neurot store should have it soon, but here is one EU link;

It’s pretty damn brisk. There’s a bit of lull right after the halfway mark (in the theatrical version there’s a 15 minute intermission, the lull is right after the intermission but Netflix doesn’t have the intermission title-card); however it promptly speeds back up and goes hella hard right through the end. 
It’s seriously so much fun.

New KEN Mode LP.  Not really metal, but I'm guessing there's some interest

New Hulder MLP is up at 20BS:

It's on Shudder

Was sick over the weekend and spent a lot of time in front of the TV.
 
Torn Hearts - This was a fun way to spend part of a Saturday night.   Nothing revolutionary, but it's well made and goes by quickly.
 
Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched: A History of Folk Horror - I really liked this.  Well worth the watch if you're interested in folk horror.  It's long (3+ hours), but it's broken up into chapters and would be easy to split up across multiple sittings.
 
On the non-horror side of things :
 
Everything Everywhere - I liked this quite a lot and I feel like another viewing or two would only increase how much I like it.  It's so wild and inventive and pretty amazing they made it work so well.  I didn't expect it to be so funny either (I went in 100% blind).
 
Nightmare Alley - Finally had time for this and liked it a lot as well.  Even though it's slowly paced, the it never felt long. 
 
Bull - Very good revenge / crime flick.  There's a plot thing that didn't quite work for me, but overall a really solid ride. 

The second balcony is GA and I paid $52 for that ticket.  Floor and first balcony were all assigned seating and there was nothing remotely cheap.  I'll think on it today, but the odds of me buying a ticket for the Portland show are looking pretty good!  I've been to quite a few shows at the STG venues and I've never seen such fuck you prices.

Jesus Christ. It’d be more worth it to just drive down for the Portland show at that point. Tickets were $46.50 after fees and the whole venue is GA, including the seated balcony for this show I believe. Granted Roseland is one of my least favorite venues around. 

It ruled. Still very weird and Eggersy for such a big budget movie but certainly much more accessible to a broader audience.
 
Heading out to see Men tonight.

They announced an U.S. tour with Nothing. 
 
 

Los Espookys is a lot of fun (and also very fun to say).  Seems to be a bit of a hidden gem.

I kind of realized I would likely never be in the mood so I just went ahead and took the plunge.

The Sadness is on my to-watch list, but I'm going to really have to be in the mood haha.

I saw that earlier.  And then I couldn't for the life of me even remember anything of that soundtrack (I only remember when the blonde is singing) and decide that probably didn't warrant dropping $30.
 
I watched The Sadness a bit ago (which is coming to Shudder in a week or so) and it's a lot.  Like, *a lot* a lot.  It certainly is not for the squeamish, and if you have buttons to press it'll certainly press them.  I don't know how I feel about it - it's effective, but a rough watch.  I have other thoughts but they get a spoiler-y.

I have an Okki Nokki and I've been really happy with it also.

Not sure if it's been posted already...but Discordance Axis are reissuing The Inalienable Dreamless on a multitude of colors. Each /200. Some already sold out.

Personally...I can't decide between the Blue w/ Baby Blue splatter or the Blue w/ Black splatter. Would've loved the Clear w/ Blue & White splatter but it's sold out. 
 
 
 

lol - a number of pages back i'd commented on this one: "I can see this one being *really* divisive in the horror scene though, especially because I think the the trailer gives a really incorrect impression of what you’re going to see." I enjoyed it (not a ton, but I did enjoy it) but it certainly took some quick on-the-fly reevaluation of what i expected from it first.

Had a mixed bag of a weekend
 
We're All Going to the World's Fair - Complete miss for me.  I think I was expecting something more straight forward and it very much isn't that.  Seeing comments elsewhere, it seems to be a movie people either love or hate.
 
Kicking Blood - Didn't care for this either.  It's more of a bland drama with vampires than a horror movie.
 
The Cursed - This, I liked.  It drags on occasion, but it's there's a lot of gore to make up for it.
 
The Editor - This was a ton of fun!  A giallo comedy that seems to very much get the genre.  Some awesome practical effects as well.

Awesome! Thanks! I just snagged The Scars Of Man 1 and 2 so I’ll look into The Subject of Morality next ☺️ 

I gave both copies a listen over the weekend and the single LP sounds really good.   Unless you really prefer the original master, you'll probably be happy with the single LP.

Lots of great releases today, including (finally) some solid death metal.
 
Semi-surprising to some, myself included - I think Chris Reifert's new album with Greg Wilkinson (both from Autopsy) as Static Abyss is worth checking out.  Only vinyl release is on 140g black, up on Amazon, Bandcamp, and Peaceville's shop.  Pretty sweet death/doom with some touches of Autopsy in places.
