Great Pumpkin Soundtrack!
I wanted something nice, breezy and pleasant for this evening — something that’ll slow time for a while and let us all catch our breath.
With that, here’s the complete soundtrack to It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.
For those curious, yes, CBS will be running the special this year. Twice, actually! Look for it on Tuesday 10/22 at 8PM EST, and then again on Sunday 10/27 at 7. Miss one if you must, but missing both would be criminal!
Horror Movie TV Spots!
Here’s a small collection of horror movie TV spots, mostly from the 1980s:
There are only 17 spots on the playlist, but they’re really good ones, covering everything from Evil Dead 2 to Jason Takes Manhattan.
Horror movie trailers get more publicity and are generally more artful, but I have a much stronger connection to these old TV spots, even if they were usually just cutdowns of the trailers. Spots like these would hit television all throughout the day, adding an air of danger and excitement to every commercial break. Enjoy!
Free-For-All Thread!
Been a while since we’ve had a dedicated Free-For-All Thread. I’m just preoccupied enough to make this the perfect night for one! Talk about anything!
Behemoth!
It’s Friday, so let’s run something with a little more meat on the bone:
Get set for BEHEMOTH, a 2011 Syfy movie that… well, I can probably stop there, right? “2011 Syfy movie” tells you all you need to know.
I guess I can at least copy/paste the description from YouTube: “Scientists discover a giant creature under the Earth that is wrapped around the entire planet. When the creature wakes all grumpy, it causes worldwide destruction.”
Most of you will skip this, but surely somebody out there needs a movie for tonight!
Let’s add a SURVEY, too:
Name one of your favorite GIANT MONSTERS.
Can be from movies, TV, a book, a video game, whatever! You can name your absolute favorite, or you can use this opportunity to “promote” a giant monster that doesn’t always get a lot of love. (Like, mine might be Gorga the Space Monster from the old Choose Your Own Adventure book.) Be descriptive and tell us why you’ve chosen your monster!
Spill it, in the comments!
