After my longest break yet, I pop back up just in time to want to go back into hiding, being Election Day and all. In the meantime, here are my ramblings on two horror movie marathons I attended in October: 1. "They're Here" at Brain Dead Studios in Los Angeles, where I watched the following haunted house-themed films in 16mm: Amityville II: The Possession (1982); Something Evil (1972); Poltergeist II: The Other Side (1986); The Others (2001); The Entity (1982); and House (1985)
2. "Camp Frida: British Invasion" at The Frida Cinema in Santa Ana, where I watched the following UK-based horror movies: Ghostwatch (1992); The Legend of Hell House (1973); The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971); Theatre of Blood (1973); Dracula (1958); and Xtro (1982)

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
