J-rock, music, glowing red skulls


Set your Tivo/DVR/VCR early this morning - there's a lot of good stuff then if you're willing to stay up and watch.

12:00 AM [Encore Action]
Cemetery Man

"The Living Dead and the dying living are all the same. Cut from the same cloth. But disposing of dead people is a public service, whereas you're in all sorts of trouble if you kill someone while they're still alive."

12:45 AM [Turner Classic Movies]
TerrorVision

The TCM website says: "A family's satellite television becomes a gateway to an alien invasion." No idea if it's good or not, but at least you know it has Chad Allen in it.

1:00 AM [American Movie Classics]
Puppet Master

The original creepy puppet movie - forget the love story aspect of this movie and concentrate on the fact that there are evil puppets killing people. Followed by several sequels of middling quality, all available in a boxed set for you completists (though why anyone would ever want to own Curse of the Puppet Master with its horrible main actor is beyond me).

3:00 AM [American Movie Classics]
Earth vs. the Spider (1958)

There's a small town with a valiant science teacher and plucky teenagers. There's a giant mutant spider resurrected by rock music. Let the rumble begin!

Freaks

One of those classic movies that never stops being deeply disturbing, it's the story of an affair gone wrong when a trapeze artist plots to murder her midget husband with the help of the circus strong man. But she didn't count on the circus 'freaks' and that's where the really horrific part is. The ending is still incredibly creepy and gah...
J-rock, music, glowing red skulls


Otherwise known as the season of True Blood, where everything went truly crazy. You've got the following: a maenad making truly disturbing food in Sookie's grandma's kitchen, a Viking vampire out to save his emo maker, a teenage vampire trying to figure out how to date and lose her virginity (sadly impossible for her), a waitress turning into a deer to impress her shapeshifter boyfriend, Tara dating a guy with a penchant for blackouts and rough sex, someone getting it on with a tree, Jason and the local deputy forming a crimefighting team, and Sookie and Bill trying to get some alone time in the midst of this mess.

The final episode is fairly insane and a bit messy in the wrap-up, but it does leave some decent cliffhangers for next season.
