Halloween isn't American. Even if you dispute its origins as Samhain, the Celtic new year's eve, modern Halloween is a rehash of old European traditions. For example, carving root vegetables for this celebration emerged in Ireland and the UK (using a turnip instead of pumpkin).

@MikeStoklasa writing them off weeks ago is proof of the power of pessimism.

So if young people are getting cancer more often, and if it really is down to obesity and inactivity, that still doesn't get you off the hook. Why are those things suddenly more prevalent? Why are we framing this as an individual issue?

I tell everyone they should see a movie at Tuschinski - it's one of the most beautiful cinemas you will find anywhere. But you should also check out something weird at Filmhuis Cavia - an art-house venue established by the squatting movement in the 1980s.

Yes, "eerie apocalyptic tension" is exactly what everyone remembers about The Happening.

Every few weeks, Jetpack decides it is going to make its stats delivery worse for no apparent reason. Charts are now these hideous grey eyesores, because who likes looking at colours? (Maybe colour costs extra now?) So, thanks, I guess...

The UK's forensic saviour is still playing the long game apparently... Seven Labour MPs excommunicated for voting against the starvation of kids. youtube.com/watch?v=GYOPLkkF…

Filmmakers can't resist going back to ruin their old work, and AI is already catering to that awful impulse. Keep hold of your old 'bad' copies of the movies you love, because soon they'll only exist in forms where everyone's got fucked up eyes and hands.
