Rengoku (Everybody likes the dude), dead.

Ubuyashiki (parental figure), dead.

Shinobu (He checked on her from time to time), dead.

Iguro (his besto friendo), dead.

Genya (No explanation needed), dead.

Day 9: Christmas Films

Chicago, Illinois 1986

When she gets home from her shift at the bookstore, she’s met with the sight of Eddie sitting on the couch, wrapped up in the orange afghan. It’s all dark except for the fuzzy blue light of the tv and a few candles lit by the window. She can just make out a bowl of microwave popcorn, a few bags of candy, a box of pizza and a bottle of wine all set up on the coffee table.

“Sit down, we’re going to watch it,” he monotones as he works the remote.

Chrissy, still covered in snow flurries, breathes a confused chuckle. “…Watch what? What did you get?” she asks as she hangs her purse on the wall peg, peeling off her layers, and taking off her boots. When she sees the empty movie cover on top of the VCR, she immediately wheels around. “I’m sorry, there’s been a mistake, I don’t live here…”

“Oh, come on, Cunningham,” he croons after her.

“Nooo! There is no way I’m watching Ice Castles with you after last night.” she tells him as she makes her way toward their bedroom.

“Why not?” he pouts. “I just want to see what all the fuss is about…”

“You said you were going to pick us up a Christmas movie!”

“It’s totally a Christmas movie!” he argues. “It’s got ice skating, doesn’t it?”

“You’re just going to whine and make fun of it the whole time and completely ruin it for me.” she crosses her arms.

He gasps, placing a hand to his chest. “I would never! I only have respect for a movie that had such a big impact on you.” He wiggles his brows.

She rolls her eyes. It’s her own fault, she should have never told him. “Eddie…”

“Come on, baby, get over her, I’ve got Skittles.” he sings, shaking the small red bag to tempt her, making the round little candies clack together inside.

With a long, heavy sigh she gives in, snuggling beside him in defeat after she changes into her warm baby blue pajamas. He’s smiley and doting in his ‘hurray, I got what I wanted’ way, wrapping her up all cozy, pouring her a glass of wine, kissing her nose, then her forehead, then her pouting lips several times. He tilts his head to the side, blinking his big doe eyes down at her. ‘Don’t be annoyed with me, look how cute I am.’

“You behave yourself,” she tells him as she eats her pizza. “This is one of my favorites! No overly critical film analysis!”

“Cross my heart and hope to die,” he chuckles, forefinger criss-crossing over his chest as he presses play. “I’m very excited!”

“You’ve gotten yourself all worked up over this and you’re going to be very underwhelmed.” she sighs as the familiar theme plays, warm nostalgia and comfort beginning to seep into her bones just by the sound of it.

“How can I be underwhelmed by the movie that gave you your sexual awakening?” he asks in astonishment, watching the opening with rapt attention.

“Oh, God…” she sighs.

The minute Robby Benson comes on screen driving through the snowy landscapes in his station wagon with his amazing hair, it’s his turn to get pouty. “Oh look, there’s your boyfriend.”

“Eddie…”

“What is it?” he asks, curling his hand over his lips thoughtfully, squinting, leaning forward, his elbows on his knees. “Is it the hair?”

Coyly, she slides her hand up his back into his messy waves. “I do love thick brown hair.” she admits, massaging his skelp. He smiles and she can feel some warmth crawl up his neck, but he keeps his eyes fixed determinedly on the screen. “Oh, he’s so cool, he drives snowmobiles, he dropped out of med school, he plays hockey…” he drawls out in a low mocking tone.

“Stop.” she laughs. “You’re being ridiculous!”

About forty minutes in, he is still looking perplexed, probably wondering at what point she began to see boys differently in such a tame film with everyone wearing several layers of clothing. There’s more skin action from Lynn-Holly Johnson in her skating uniform.

When they’ve had their fill of junk food, they recline back along the sofa, Chrissy resting her head against his chest while he absentmindedly unweaves her twin braids, carding his fingers through her tresses the way he knows she loves.

She braces herself for the phone call scene. She can feel Eddie grinning when it cuts to Robby in nothing but a pair of tight white underwear.

“Oh, there it is,” he snickers mirthfully. “The moment little Chrissy became a woman.”

“Shut up.” she turns sharply, burying her face in his shirt, feeling his arms slip down to squeeze her waist.

“God, it leaves nothing to the imagination does it?”

“Stop it!” she half whines, half giggles in embarrassment.

He only chuckles louder, kissing the top of her hair. “God, you’re so cute!”

They resettle to watch the rest and Eddie grows less jealous and teasing and more quiet and invested.

“Jesus, sweetheart,” he murmurs after Lexie is found wearing her dead mother’s clothes in the attic. “This is kind of a downer.”

“It gets better.” she replies, fingers tracing over the bats along his forearm.

The real moment that makes her weak and wanting is when blind Lexie is able to do a double twist with Nick’s help and then he passionately embraces her, tender and proud, rekindling their relationship.

“Oh, baby, you did a double!”

“It wasn’t perfect.”

“Well, it was damn good… what a girl. Oh, what a girl!”

It always makes her ache.

“You’re like that,” she whispers softly, leaning up to kiss him.

“A complete pushover?” Eddie jokes, but she can tell that gets to him by the way his eyes sparkle.

“You know what I mean,” she replies seriously. “I never knew anything like that until you.”

He softens, blinking slowly before taking her face in his hands and kissing her deeply. “I’m your Benson, baby?” he asks.

“You’re more than that.” she murmurs against his lips.

There’s still some more comments and teasing as the rest of the movie plays out, but she doesn’t miss the way his eyes get a little glassy during the final skating routine or when he suddenly turns his head to wipe his eye.

“We forgot about the flowers.”

“We forgot about the flowers,” Eddie mimics Robby's soft spoken, melodic tone suddenly, obviously recovered from whatever emotional experience he may or may not have been having. “God, this guy,” he waves his hand at the screen. “With his stupid floppy hair and his stupid baby voice.”

Chrissy elbows him as the blue credits roll and the cheesy melody of Looking Through the Eyes of Love begins to play for the third time. “Shh…Be quiet, I love this song.”

Halloween countdown 2023: favorite shots in horror films

October 5: House on Haunted Hill (1959, William Castle)

If I were gonna haunt somebody, this would certainly be the house I'd do it in.

Demon Slayer

Considering how the Hashira Training Arc-Infinity Castle Arc and Sunrise Countdown arc have been confirmed to coming out, maybe we could see some differences, especially in the finale. Considering the Final arc had been rushed because the author had something happening (I'm not sure what it was) This means, hopefully we have a change of plot (not too much) like maybe we could see the retired Hashiras in action: Urokodaki, Uzui, Shinjuro. Along with Uzui's wives. I HOPE they change up the final arc, considering the whole point was for Muzan to get Nezuko and eat her to conquer the sun. Maybe we could get Muzan sending a horde of lower demons to overwhelm the people keeping the Ubuyashiki's survived children and Nezuko safe. Maybe a bunch of quickly made Lower Moons (for the purpose of getting Nezuko) We could get how the Hashiras trying to get Muzan far away from Nezuko and the main estate as they can until the sun rises. We could have seen Aoi in action too (She knows Water breathing) to keep the 3 girls safe, etc. Lots of potential

[imkazz]

Iguro losing his face coverings in the final battle: now you know my terrible secret!

Mitsuri, who literally lost both her arms: youre scarred? its ok if youre scarred iguro-san i dont care

Everyone battling Muzan himself, fighting for their lives, losing limbs, dying, corpses littering the battlefield, blood everywhere: SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!

The Price May Be Right - Number 14

Welcome to “The Price May Be Right!” I’m counting down My Top 31 Favorite Vincent Price Performances & Appearances! The countdown will cover movies, TV productions, and many more forms of media. Today we focus on Number 14: Frederick Loren, from The House on Haunted Hill.

This classic spook show is generally considered to be the masterpiece of director William Castle. He was a director who specialized in horror and mystery films that usually had a sort of deliberately campy and sardonic edge to them; they’re movies that could certainly be startling and eerie, but weren’t necessarily meant to be taken COMPLETELY seriously. The result was a series of Gothic thrillers with a humorous touch that have gained quite a cult following over the years, largely due to their bizarre and unique sense of tone. I say “largely” because another infamous element of Castle’s films was that he tried to turn them into interactive experiences…more on that later. Vincent Price worked with William Castle on his first two independent scary movies…and the very first, and generally considered the best, was “House on Haunted Hill.” The film stars Price as Frederick Loren, an eccentric billionaire who arranges a party for seven people (including himself and his money-grubbing wife) inside the titular haunted mansion. Aside from Frederick himself and his bride, Annabelle, all of the guests are unknown to each other. Loren’s motivations for why he is doing all this are initially a mystery: it’s revealed that Annabelle is the one who came up with the idea for the party, but Loren is the one who decided to invite the guests. As the film goes on, strange and shocking events transpire in the house, which is said to be the home of seven murderous ghosts (one for each guest). When Loren’s wife is mysteriously murdered, the remaining tenants locked inside the building – Loren, himself, included – must find a way to stay alive till morning, wondering which of their party is the culprit. Loren is the obvious suspect, and played up as something of a red herring; his evasive personality and shady past – Annabelle isn’t his first wife, nor the first to die mysteriously – make him seem like the most clear guilty party. (Being played by Vincent doesn’t exactly help matters.) However, as the story goes on, it soon becomes clear not all is as it seems…and it is neither Vincent’s character, nor the supposed spirits who haunt the old house, that is to blame for the dangers present. While Price is ultimately just one character in what turns out to be essentially an ensemble cast, he's the one who gets the biggest spotlight of the group, most likely due to his star power and the fact his character is the host of the party which the story centers around. Anytime you look up lists of favorite Vincent Price movies, you’re almost guaranteed to find this picture among the ranks. One of the things that made the movie popular was that interactive element I mentioned earlier: Castle often included “gimmicks” in his films that turned them into more than just a movie. In the case of “House on Haunted Hill,” during a scene where a skeletal ghost rises from a hot vat of bubbling acid, there was a trick where a real skeleton would suddenly appear over the heads of the audience, floating across the screen like a specter and startling the viewers. If William Castle hadn’t become a movie maker, he could have made a killing at theme parks! Tomorrow, the countdown continues with Number 13!
