Drive-In Movies
I'll figure out how to sticky posts later.
This is it, gang. Tonight we need to say goodbye until Joe Bob's Labor Day Ruckus or The Ethiopian New Year Hullabaloo or whatever. I'm going to desperately miss talking nonsense with your freaks & weirdos. One last time (for now): take a moment to ensure that you've been duly sworn in by taking [our sacred oath](https://youtu.be/s1eWvQKnIkE?t=5). **First Movie:** ??? **Second Movie:** Day of the Dead
https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1681015066865352705 Darcy spilled the beans a couple weeks ago, so unless she was messing with us and JBB is really misdirecting us with that Florida clue, we know one of the films will be [Day of the Dead](https://letterboxd.com/film/day-of-the-dead/). What do y'all think the other one will be?
https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1681015066865352705 Unless she was being cruel and misdirecting us, Darcy already spilled the beans that one of the films will be Day of the Dead (woop!). What does everyone think the other film will be?
I tried redoing Hungry Like The Wolf by Duran Duran for tonight, but I couldn't wedge both caliginous and callipygian in there while also referencing Bastille Day and probably-werewolves. I failed you, fam! 😫 At any rate, you should know that you're legally obligated to get sworn in before that one guitar part punches you in the feels. So, [raise your right hand...](https://youtu.be/s1eWvQKnIkE?t=7) **First Movie:** Alligator **Second Movie:** Grizzly
https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1679330522323886080?s=20 What do y'all think? I'm really bad at guessing these, but I'm going to say [An American Werewolf in London (1981)](https://letterboxd.com/film/an-american-werewolf-in-london/) and [Abominable (2006)](https://letterboxd.com/film/abominable/). However! Tomorrow is Bastille Day, so I think it would be appropriate if Joe Bob and Darcy played [Brotherhood of the Wolf (2001)](https://letterboxd.com/film/brotherhood-of-the-wolf/).

https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1676965096210448388?s=20 What are everyone's guesses? I haven't seen a lot of animated horror before, so I've got nothin'.
Lloyd Kaufman is ~~asking~~ [begging](https://twitter.com/lloydkaufman/status/1675627196633825282?s=20) for help! On 27 June 2023, YouTube took down the TromaMovies channel over violations of its community standards, leaving many other channels up that commit the same violations. Selective enforcement of rules is not gangster, YT. Here is the announcement from [Lloyd Kaufman](https://twitter.com/lloydkaufman/status/1673773436621975552?s=20). [And here is a MoveOn.org petition gently asking YouTube to unfuck themselves](https://sign.moveon.org/petitions/save-troma-on-youtube). I know petitions are kinda whatever, but it's a thing we can do.
Folks and kin, gather 'round the flickering embers of this here ancient fire and let the shadows dance in the hollers of our souls. In the hallowed heart of these spooky-ass woods, we unite as one. Like the roots of ageless trees entwined beneath the forest floor, so shall our mutant bond remain unbreakable. We are bound by the legacy of our ancestors, which we carry forward into the endless night through [our sacred oath](https://youtu.be/s1eWvQKnIkE?t=5). **First Movie:** Dark Night of the Scarecrow **Second Movie:** Beyond the Door III
https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1673492109448343553?s=20 What are everyone's guesses for this week? I'm saying this week it'll be [Jug Face](https://boxd.it/4Vu0) and [Valerie and Her Week of Wonders](https://boxd.it/NsC).
https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1671570035071143936 Any guesses for the two films? I'm voting [The Rift](https://letterboxd.com/film/the-rift/) and [Death Ship](https://letterboxd.com/film/death-ship/) based on my desire for it to be The Rift and Death Ship.

It's pretty good! I'm not a movie reviewer and don't want to be one, so I won't do a write-up or anything, but if you like slashers from the early 80s this might be one to check out. It's fairly predictable and I'm not totally sure the premise even makes sense, but who cares! It was competently done, and it lacks polish in a way that I think adds to the movie. This is a solid pick if you're ever doing a 1980s slasher movie night imo. It's streaming on Shudder as of June 2023.

https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1669420942232109056 I'm kinda whatever about the Walking Dead, and it's a clear mandate from AMC, but I show up when JBB does. It's the rules.
Posting from an alt because my home instance is having a moment https://twitter.com/therealjoebob/status/1669420942232109056
I'm watching *Duck, You Sucker* for the first time and having a blast. What's your favorite Leone film?
