Notes

Just fleeting thoughts that pop into my mind. Or perhaps things I’ve been thinking about that don’t really warrant a full-on post.

  • Started reading IT by Stephen King

    One of the earliest films I remember seeing was the 2-part mini-series of Stephen King’s IT. IT scared the undying crap out of me when I was about 6 or 7. Now, many years later, I have decided to actually read the novel before part 2 of the new 2-part films is out. HERE GOES……


  • The Gunslinger – The Dark Tower part 1

    Some thoughts of mine after finishing the first book of Stephen King’s epic series ‘The Dark Tower’. It took me to my second attempt to actually read this book to completion. And although it started off as a bit of a chore, by about a third in I found myself drawn in to the Gunslinger…


  • I’ve started watching Scream Queens, finally

    I’ve been a fan of American Horror Story for a few years now – since Hotel first aired. So you’d think I’d have been all over Scream Queens too, given it was also created in part by both Brad Falchuk and Ryan Murphy. But for some strange reason, known only to me I guess, I…


  • I’m working double shifts at my freelance gardening job – I’m raking it in.


  • Started reading The Dark Tower series

    I started reading The Gunslinger about a year ago but only got about half way through. After someone at work mentioned The Dark Tower series today, I was inspired to pick it back up and try again. Here goes…


  • Neon Demon posters

    The Neon Demon is one of my favourite films of recent years. I wrote up my thoughts on it a while back. Here are some of my favourite posters that I’ve found, created by other fans of the film.


  • Archie === Best dog ever ?

    Archie during my dog-sitting week. Woof woof! Woof! Archie, circa 2019


  • Welcome to the Junji Ito Manga Site

    The Junji Ito Manga Site is my dedication to the works of acclaimed Horror Manga artist and writer, Junji Ito. Ever since I read my first manga, The Enigma of Amigara Fault, I was hooked on Junji Ito’s work. I couldn’t quite describe the feelings that his work gave me. I was unsettled; I was…


  • Watching Archer again

    Loving the recent formats of the TV series Archer. Finally got back into watching it – Dreamland was great and just about to start Danger Island.


  • I’m finally back into American Horror Story Apocalypse

    Once again, I have left the current series of American Horror Story until months after it has finished airing. I think it must be something inside me that doesn’t want to reach the end. Last night I watched four episodes back to back — and I absolutely loved it. The old characters that have been…


  • Snow White adaptation by Junji Ito

    Most people probably know the story of Snow White — the seven dwarfs; the poison apple; the prince. But I bet not many know of this version by acclaimed horror Mangaka Junji Ito. A short version but not one to be missed. Read on Manga Owl.


  • American Horror Story – 1984 Poster

    I really need to get and watch AHS: Apocalypse before this next series starts. I absolutely adore this show, but I always seem to wait until the next one is coming out before catching up. 1984 looks freaking awesome though – just the concept alone. Can’t wait.
