The Vast of Night is fantastic and I wish I’d thought to tell you that before it was disappeared by Amazon.
Went to go rewatch The Vast of Night, only to discover that they took it off Amazon Prime… the service that released it exclusively. So now it’s literally just not available anywhere. Good times.
I’ve been a SILENT HILL obsessive since I was way too young to be watching my dad play the original, so this was a real full circle moment and a career high I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to top. Big ups to @horrorgirlprobs.bsky.social for making this happen ❤️
Embargo is up! I can now reveal that the reason I was in Los Angeles was for a special hands on preview of SILENT HILL: TOWNFALL, and let me tell you gang, September cannot come quickly enough
SILENT HILL is back! We braved the fog of TOWNFALL and are here to report our findings on gameplay, creature design, and whether Konami’s latest lives up to the survival horror series legacy.

Soul Stripping
Against AI, again.

AI invents fake quotes. AI-generated articles about me appear in mainstream sites with totally fake quotes and info. The Times of India ran one last week saying I run a garden center. Other articles say my children are named Isaac and Malachai. Clearly my garden center is in "Children of the Corn."
Someone gave me a "summary" that some AI had produced of a panel I was on, including pull quotes. The quotes were all invented -- no one on the panel said that stuff -- even though the AI was given an audio recording of the whole thing. I told them to trash it and did the transcription myself.

I don’t know how many perfect movies exist but I do know that STAND BY ME is one of them.
Berlin, London and Karlsruhe (where the good IMAX is) for my 45th. A fun lil roundup: www.instagram.com/p/DbTFL61FYf...
Thank you BJ 💚 And hey listen, I turn 45 today. If you’re tempted to celebrate in any way, thank you, and I’d LOVE if we can get this deeply worthy gofundme for BJ’s post-radiation dental reconstruction up to $45k today. Now THAT would be a perfect birthday. www.gofundme.com/f/bj-needs-a...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO @mereborders.bsky.social!! The absolute best of us all.
Former co-worker @andrewtodd.co.nz also found his way into this week’s Terror Teletype. You never know who will turn up!
Phil making me full-on weep (complimentary) today 💗
My co-workers are better than your co-workers. (Unless you are my co-worker, in which case they’re just as good, except you aren’t your own co-worker. What? Shut up.) Happy birthday @mereborders.bsky.social ❤️ manage.kmail-lists.com/subscription...
oh man I have been WAITING to watch this one again. It's a mind-bender.
This movie is excellent. Don’t miss it.

Really, really loved Off the Reservation by @stephengrahamjones.com. If you were as obsessed with The Only Good Indians as I, add this sequel-esque to your TBR ASAP. www.stephengrahamjones.com/off-the-rese...

Ex-pat level up: I debated a German parking ticket and WON! Take THAT, notoriously rigid German bureaucracy. Even if they did call me "Herr Borders" 😆
It’s my birthday and I tell you this because the only thing I want is to get this fundraiser to $50k. If you’d buy me a coffee or a gift, I hope you’ll consider sending those funds here today! Mega love to you all, let’s keep taking care of each other 💚🙏🏽 www.gofundme.com/f/bj-needs-a...

Without saying your age, what's your favorite movie that came out when you were 18? (1999 is an absolutely stacked year of game-changing blockbusters and indies but if we’re going by the movie I’ve seen the most times, well…)

I considered going to bed at a reasonable time last night but ADHD had other ideas, anyway I made a Jimothy X-Files t-shirt. Available here: robsheridan.threadless.com/collections/... - Proceeds benefit Defenders of Wildlife @defenders.org
MULDER [slapping down plane tix]: Hope you packed your rain coat, Scully. SCULLY: Seattle? Mulder it's the weekend, what- MULDER [handing her a file] Confirmed sightings, Scully. This is big SCULLY [eyes wide]: My God Mulder, what am I looking at here? MULDER: The locals are calling it.. JIMOTHY
The great thing about Jimothy is he’s milkshake duck-proof. He’s a raccoon, so we already know he’s one of God’s perfect assholes.
meanwhile...
I know better than most that every friend needs a pick-me-up from time to time and I’m honored to have someone like @philnobilejr.bsky.social in my corner to lift me up. Today’s Terror Teletype: tinyurl.com/5n8hjdzs
As of now, BJ & Harmony are over halfway to the overall goal of $50K (GoFundMe pushes out goals in increments). If we didn't raise a single cent more (we will), all of you will have changed their lives by eliminating half of an astronomical medical debt in 48 hrs. Thank you, endlessly. Now, LFG 🖤
Our buddy @bjcolangelo.bsky.social needs a little help from her friends (and I'm a bully). BJ needs what is, essentially, a full mouth replacement thanks to cancer radiation. We can't eliminate the dental trauma, but we can help with the life-altering debt. www.gofundme.com/f/bj-needs-a...
A lovely Musings from @philnobilejr.bsky.social today, about how our collective of lil horror weirdos always answers the call. Extra love to Phil, to @crazysexyghoul.bsky.social, to @bjcolangelo.bsky.social, and to anyone giving of themselves during globally tough times. Read: tinyurl.com/5n8hjdzs
Freelance life is a struggle. Making a living doing any of (waves arms around) THIS is insane. Doing it while constantly dealing with the surprising side effects of surviving cancer? Takes a stronger person than me. That’s who BJ Colangelo is. But she needs help. Can you help? gofund.me/120701466

BJ is one of the single best people in our biz. She radiates kindness, goodness, hilarity, brilliance, ✨sparkle✨, and she is always fiercely fighting in the corner of anyone who needs her. Now it’s our turn to fight for her.

At long last, I am finally going to be able to make it to the Telluride Horror Show this October! Absolutely cannot wait. Bonus: I get to see @mereborders.bsky.social ! Second bonus: layover in Denver means I might be able to uncover certain Illuminati secrets, which is always fun.
