I learned today that House of the Rising Sun originated from a folk tune in the public domain, making it a good one to do a cover of for independent films. Thanks to Witers/Blockbusters podcast and @thundergruntbob.bsky.social … youtu.be/147kS8O59Qs?...

I got kinda punchy last night transcribing closed captions for the feature I’m working on… I may have slipped in a few jokes. Like sarcastic Easter eggs for the deaf and hard of hearing.

Thanks to @bobfreelander.bsky.social for recommending the Inner Sanctum bluray set. Each one gets weirder and weirder. I just watched The Frozen Ghost and it’s bonkers! The horror tropes stack up at a rapid pace, and Lon Chaney Jr. is a tortured soul in each one.

Pet peeve. When people say they want to "flush" out something when they really mean "flesh" it out.
