Couldn’t agree more! Did the same thing myself tonight at the Midway Drive-In!
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social) reply parent
Going to the drive-in on Saturday night for a screening of Jaws! First time at the drive-in this year. Also likely going to smoke a bunch of chicken wings on Sunday with my brother. Glad that football is returning as well.

Yes. I had DVR'd it earlier that evening, and when the screen went dark, I thought the recording had screwed up. Sat there exasperated for a moment, then confusion hit as the credits began to roll. What an ending. Well, off to YouTube to watch it half a dozen times.
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social) reply parent
100% agreed. I wholeheartedly understand the issues fans have with Jason Goes to Hell, but I mostly love it anyway. The series desperately needed a shot of adrenaline at the time. For all of its issues, it has great gore effects and was so damn different when things had gotten a bit stale.
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social) reply parent
I saw this earlier today and as a result had "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" stuck in my head all day. (Yes, I had to look up how to spell that "correctly.") I hadn't thought of that song in so long!
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social) reply parent
I grabbed a copy when it was new, but really never got around to giving it much time. I really should fix that. Same thing with Red Dead Redemption 2.

I've always liked the idea of Godzilla movies perhaps more than the movies themselves. That said, I truly enjoyed Godzilla Minus One and Shin Godzilla. Give 'em a shot!

I grew up in Illinois in the '80s and learned to love baseball at a young age. Ryne Sandberg was a huge reason why. These days it seems like I am constantly seeing icons from my youth pass on, but this one hurts on a different level. RIP, Ryno.

Is there a problem that cannot be solved by going to YouTube and spending an hour watching Japanese videos about pet otters? Well, obviously yes. But it often helps.

I've never disliked Alien 3, but I found a new appreciation for what it could've been after FINALLY seeing the assembly cut. Still have the OG theatrical poster purchased from a Suncoast! I know there is a fan-made legacy cut that is circulating and supposedly fantastic. I need to check that out!
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social)
Between 'Knots Landing' being a weekly event on our TV, and Friday the 13th Part VII being the first film in that series I saw on the big screen, Lar Park Lincoln was a very familiar face for me as a kid. Cannot forget Freddy's Nightmares. Rest in Peace.

Watching Logan’s Run tonight. Thinking back to the late ‘80s when my father suggested my friend and I watch it. We did and we responded with a resounding, “meh.” And here I am… this many years later… watching it with my friend again. We both now love it. Thanks, Dad.

I gotta be honest, I think I am enjoying Fatal Games as much as I did either of the official #TheLastDriveIn movies tonight. This just feels like proper drive-in schlock!

I watched The Coffee Table on Shudder. Maybe not horror strictly speaking, but a horror adjacent black comedy. It was pretty wild. Kinda like the premise of an '80s sitcom, but instead of trying to hide a stain on the new couch, you're trying to conceal maybe the worst thing ever from your spouse.

So happy they are going back to the double feature. I definitely prefer this to one movie every other week. Like you said, this feels like more of an "event" now. If two movies a month is the reality, this is the way to do it.
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social) reply parent
Great news! I'm very happy about the return of the double-feature format. Never felt right to have just one movie. #thelastdrivein
Terry (@tlf777.bsky.social)
Watching Spaced for the first time in a couple of decades. Discovering and watching this back in like 2005 was one of the best parts of getting a region free DVD player back then. My cheap-o Phillips DVP642 has long since stopped spinning discs, but Tubi came through. Such a classic show.

Go was such a fun movie that seems like it has been maybe a little bit forgotten about over the years. I also remember loving the soundtrack, but admittedly I haven't played it in years to see if it still holds up these days.
