OH MY GOD CONGRATS ON THE ADOPTION FAM!!!! 💙​✨​💙​✨​💙 ✨ 💙

Ahhhhhhhhhhh thank you so much! I never know the proper amount to talk about him without being boring or doxxing myself/my toddler. But yeah, he's here to stay and he's getting so big! We've had a fantastic interfaith "Honka" season as he calls it, and he's been responsible about not trying to blow out the candles even though he very much suspects the menorah is cousins with a birthday cake. (Taxonomic proof: many candles)

Every day is different, and every day he makes me laugh hard about something even in the midst of world events being terrible. He's my entire world.

Salem's Lot

It's not that we shouldn’t remake the classics. Without remakes we wouldn’t have films like Philip Kaufman’s INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (1978), George Cukor’s A STAR IS BORN (1954) or Howard Hawks’ HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940). But we shouldn’t have to deal with remakes like Gary Dauberman’s watered down SALEM’S LOT (2024, Max). Although far from non-stop monkey dump, it turns Tobe Hooper’s adaptation of the Stephen King novel into a nightmare in beige.

Even allowing Dauberman had the disadvantage of comparison between a three-hour-plus miniseries, and his two-hour-minus feature there are artistic choices that diminish the original film and novel. Chief among them is the opening. The TV version starts with a framing scene that creates a world in which the protagonists played by David Soul and Lance Kerwin live on the run from the vampire hordes slowly taking over the world. It then flashes back to Soul’s return to his childhood home, contrasting the broken world of the present with the idyllic small town of the past. Dauberman, however, eschews the framing story to start right out with horror, depicting the arrival of the vampire’s coffin at the Marsden house in Jerusalem’s Lot, ME. After a few jump scares, we get a cursory depiction of small-town life, hardly enough to make us mourn the loss of a more serene existence.

When the vampires start rising, Dauberman goes for more overt scares. The vampire child floating outside one boy’s window are so eerily made up it takes massive amounts of hypnosis to get him to welcome them in. And you may find yourself saying of even capable players, “You’re no James Mason, Bonnie Bedelia, Lew Ayres, Geoffrey Lewis, Marie Windsor or Elisha Cook, Jr.” The vampire’s human servant, Straker (Pilou Asbaek), is reduced to a virtual walk-on, with none of the sexual ambiguity Mason got to play on TV. But then, the overall effect here is more sanitized than anything Hooper and writer Paul Monash had gotten away with on TV back in 1979.

There are a few eerie sequences — a child’s hearing strange noises in his back yard after dark and the romantic leads (Bill Pullman and Mackenzie Leigh) and the town doctor’s (Alfre Woodard) fighting off a reanimated corpse in a funeral home with a makeshift cross made out of tongue depressors. And though the ending loses the tortured ambiguity of King’s novel and Hooper’s adaptation, it does offer some unique approaches to vampiricide. The only actors not suffering from comparison to the miniseries are Woodard, who’s always great and brings a little sass to her role as the town doctor, and Jordan Preston Carter as Mark, the only kid in town smart enough to figure out what’s happening. Somebody put them in a film with a decent script to make up for this misguided morass.

you know you love me.

Meet MANUELLA "MANNY" HOGART (nee SANTOS), or if you read the Anti Grapevine, THE STARLET. She is a 23 year old ACTRESS, that currently resides in THE UPPER EAST SIDE.

She is known around the city for her CHARMING & IMPULSIVE demeanor, but they may be hiding something… SHE HAD AN ABORTION OVER THE SUMMER.

OLIVIA RODRIGO, CISFEMALE, SHE/HER.

Manny Santos came from humble beginnings – Her parents made a modest living with their laundromat, but they never had excess. She was raised in a remarkably strict home, one where one thing was certain: Hard work will always pay off. And in Manny’s case, despite her parents uncertainty – that came true. Starting with her role on West Drive as a child and teen, her fame quickly grew and two things followed: Her family moved from Brooklyn to Manhattan, now able to afford the lifestyle they wanted but never had, and Manny became America’s Sweetheart. Under the careful watch and management of her parents, Manny didn’t see much of her earnings – A majority went to outstanding bills and her now upgraded education. At least, until she turned 18, and gained full control of her money, her life, and most importantly: Her image. It was then that she rebranded from child star to adult, taking on a new look and identity as an it girl, along with more adult roles. While this put a strain on her relationship with her family, her career has skyrocketed. The transformation left Manny feeling more like herself than ever before, even if the consequences follow close behind.

it's all about who you know.

EMMA NELSON. childhood best friend. Manny and Emma have been best friends since kindergarten, thick as thieves despite how different they grew up to be. They had seen one another through the entirety of their childhood, served as a rock and a voice of reason for one another. But as they’ve gotten older, they’ve started to grow apart – And neither is sure if they’ll reach a boiling point or be able to return to who they once were.

CRAIG MANNING, ASHLEY KERWIN. ex-boyfriend, and person to avoid. Ashley and Craig met while on tour, and quickly sparked a romance – With their shared love for music, they seemed like the perfect couple. That had been the case through their tour and there after, until Manny came into the picture. She’d just wanted to sleep with Craig, and he’d been game. Only their one time thing turned into a months long affair, becoming more emotional than just physical. The cheating was exposed on the Fourth of July by a lucky photographer, which blew up both relationships. The only person who knows Manny had an abortion is Craig.

TORI SANTAMARIA. cousin. words go here. The Santos and Santamaria family has always had a bit of tension – Tori’s mother is the sister of Manny’s father, and from the moment she married into wealth, a divide was created. The struggles and misunderstandings between siblings bled into the relationship their children have with one another. Manny and Tori have always been surface level friendly to one another – With the unspoken narrative that the two are always in competition with one another, because of their parents.

this character is taken.

*deep inhale*

Well, we got a court date for our baby's adoption! On March 12, we'll finally be able to relax into knowing we'll get to watch him grow up, which has been a very real and constant tension in our minds since we unexpectedly said goodbye to our foster daughter in May. I didn't think my grief was survivable at first, and it's been my incredible luck to be led out of the darkness by a very insistent little person who wants to sit in my lap and play peekaboo until he laughs himself silly. Baby Kerwin has been such an incredible joy to be around, I can't even tell you. He's three days shy of being 17 months old, and is incredibly confident on his feet for such a young toddler. The little doppler effect of his buddabUDDABUDDABUDDAbudda cartoon run has become the best part of my day. He is just busy busy busy all the time, and he has to race to investigate the next thing on his packed baby to-do list. Other very cute things he's into right now are dance parties (or, for him, more like he hears music and starts spinning joyfully wherever he is and he desperately wants you to join in too), giving big passionate hugs to our labrador, and offering high fives to everyone. <3 <3 <3

He is the most affectionate little ray of sunshine, and I can't wait to be his legal dad!

He's going to wear a silly little formal outfit with a bowtie, and we're trying to think of ways to make it special for him since he's way too little to understand what's happening. (That might be something for future years and "gotcha day" celebrations) It's the middle of the week, so it's not so convenient for us to go on an awfully big adventure. We'll have to think of something that would make an impression on a toddler!

Lance Kerwin, a prolific child actor in the 1970s who starred in the groundbreaking “James at 15” series, died Tuesday, his daughter Savanah announced on Facebook. He was 62.

Kerwin was also known for a prominent role in the 1979 miniseries “Salem’s Lot,” adapted from Stephen King’s novel.

[thealmightyemprex]

Halloweenathon:Salems Lot

Well it would feel weird to discuss Halloween without discussing Stephen King so lets look at the second adaptation of his work ever

This 1979 TV miniseries follows writer Ben Mears (David Soul ) as he rturns to his hometown of Salems Lot to write about the Marsten House ,which is now occupied by antiques dealer Richard Straker (James Mason ) and his mysterious business partner Kurt Barlow (Reggie Nalder),which is then followed by mysterious disapperances and deaths

So I have seen a LOT of Stephen King movies and miniseries and I typically associated him with the 80's and 90's.....So it is really cool to see this early adaptation of his work ,and see early examples of his tropes :The writer protagonist ,the small town in Maine ,his take on classic spooky stuff(In this case vampires), and the peculiar kid .....You also get some of his weaknesses that I will discuss later

I'm gonna be honest here folks,I like 75 % of this film .....But there is 25 % that doesnt work .The pace is really bad ,like its a 3 hour film that was meant to be split into two nights ,so I expected it to be slow,but it can be glacial ,and once the plot really gets going it is a little rushed .We also have the King tropes that dont work like a subplot involving a cheating wife that goes nowhere and the history of the evil house really adds nothing to the story .Also as a lead David Soul is just OK and I wish Lance Kerwin as the kid hero had more to do

However I wanna stress that despite how flawed it is.......I still liked it cause there is a lot that works.The Direction by Tobe Hooper is phenomenal and when we get to the horror scenes they are legit scary ! The vampire makeup looks very good ,and any scene with a vampire is chilling ,going for the more monstrus type of vampires and I would be a fool not to mention the iconic scenes of the child vampires tapping at the windows which terrified many a kid . I will also say the film uses its main monster Mr Barlow affectively ,we barely see him ,but what we do see is chilling ,and much appreciation for poor Reggie Nadler who had to endure that makeup and for playing one heck of a beastly creature of the night making a very scary vampire.The cast is full of amazing and recognizable character actors like Ed Flanders,Fred Willard ,Elisha Cook Jr and George Dzundza ,with the stand outs of these character actors to me being Bonnie Bedelia as the love interest Susan and the great Kenneth McMillian as Constable Parkins Gillespie(Which for me is extra fun since while the Constable isnt a great guy ,its a fun change of pace as I am used to him being purely villainous characters in films like Cats Eye and Dune ).However the BIG stand out is James Mason as the films heavy,as Barlow is both silent and unseen for most of the film ,his servent Straker is our main antagonist for much of the runtime . I am a fan of James Masons work ,and it is a joy to see him as this sinister gentleman ,and he is a menacing bad guy .In fact I reddomend the film for any Mason fan

OVerall its flawed ,but it is mostly well done .I say the best course is to watch over two days ,and you will be treated to some good scares and some great acting ,especially from James Mason

“That awkward moment you run into your crush on the way home”

A little homage to the failed pitch my friend Sami Kerwin and I wrote last year. Although we’ve got no plans for moving forward with this, we still really like the characters and after I saw one (1) Midwestern Gothic aesthetic tiktok last week I felt inspired to draw Ro again. The story would have been about a teen vampire who is the only child vampire in her coven, a coven tied to the town due to a romantic tragedy between the coven and the human founders of the town united them in a secret peace treaty. Having never expected a future outside of the town and her coven family, Ro starts to dream of a different life for herself after a new human girl moves into town during the summer of their senior year, the same summer of her vampiric coming-of-age ceremony.

Who knows, maybe the story can happen someday but because we both wrote the concept and pitch together I’d want this to be something we both have a part in and you know, life happens and people get busy with other things.

 "Chill, 'Dad'! I'm going to the bathroom! I'll drink some water... from the toilet!"

Full Name: Ashley Kerwin 

Age: 22

Gender: Cis Female

Pronouns: She/Her

Orientation: Pansexual

Occupation: Teacher’s Assisstant

Major/Minor: Music

School Year: Senior

Clubs: Student Council

Positive Traits: Talented, Driven

Negative Tratis: Spiteful, Manipulative

Background: 

Ashley grew up an only child and wished it had stayed that way. Her parents divorced when she was in middle school and her mother quickly remarried, giving her a new stepfather and stepbrother. Part of her cares for them but part of her will also still always hold a grudge that her ‘real dad’ isn’t there with her. 

She is an absolute perfectionist, always needing whatever she’s currently working on to be as perfect as possible, often stressing herself out much more than she probably should to do so. 

She is still working on her music, working on it for hours a day, wanting more than anything to actually be able to make a career with it.

She is absolutely cutthroat when it comes to her own success, willing to screw over even people she’s known for a long time to get herself ahead. She needs the validation that comes from success, feeling like she’s a failure if she’s anything but the absolute best at whatever it is she’s trying. 

Wanted Connections:

Best Friends: The people that Ashley is closest with. She’s managed to keep a friendship with them despite how rude she can sometimes be to her friends.  Enemies: These are people that Ashley has gotten on the bad side of, one way or another. This could still be fresh drama or something that has been going on for a while!  Exes: People that she’s dated in the past. She doesn’t exactly have the best history with dating, a lot of her relationships crashing and burning.  Anything Else: I always love to plot out connections and to find fun things! So if something here doesn’t work we can always figure something else out!
