I watched Capture last night. Good movie. It exceeded expectations, although I should add that my expectations were pretty low. I guess I would rate it "not as bad as you probably think it is."

I can't and don't generally judge acting in movies. I'm very story-focused, so as long as the acting isn't so bad that it distracts from the narrative it gets a pass That being said, Dafne Keen in Whistle wasn't really pulling off whatever she was trying to do. Still a good movie, though.

The horror movie "Whistle" was good. Its like Final Destination but Death takes a more active, visible role haunting its victims. Nick Frost barely had a cameo-level appearance, which I thought was a waste, but otherwise I was entertained. One stand-out gore scene in particular made me smile.

Can confirm that We Bury the Dead is 99.0% boring-ass drama. Not sure what I want to call the other 1% since I don't want to use the word "horror" for this sham.

I wish I could just sit here and make spooky music and be able to pay my bills, but the world says no. So, naturally, the rational reaction to that is an overwhelming desire to burn the world to the ground and piss on the ashes. Or maybe that's just me.

I was probing an AI chatbot about its own nature and how could humans not fully understand how it work and it said that we (humans) are... direct quote... "black boxes studying a black box". And that, my friends, is scary as fuck.

The more I use AI for minor tasks, the more concerned I am about people and companies that use it for anything even remotely important. And this is from someone who is very pro-technology.

So apparently I'm the only person on the planet that enjoyed Alien: Earth. It had its issues, but people are dunking on it like it was hot garbage and it wasn't.

I thought I was done making music for the year. I thought that TWICE since August. ...anyway, new track releasing Friday. No, not a track I finished months ago and delayed releasing for marketing reasons (that one is NEXT week), this is one I literally finished yesterday.

"Good Boy" wasn't as fun as I hoped it would be. It was good, but too slow and it veered too close to the "trauma masquerading as horror" trope that I abhor. There IS an actual entity at work, but it's clear the moviemakers were trying for emotions other than fear.
