‘Satanic’ trailer
This horror sees people visit satanic panic sites. They do a stupid ritual and bad things happen. Oh yeah.
Best Line:
“What the hell was that?”
‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle: The Secret Of The Ooze’ (1991) promo
No emotional depth.
Clark’s Magic Steps ad
This 1980s ad sees a girl in a manky shoe shop get the shoes and end up in a forest. The forest creatures send her on an adventure involving a key, a chest and a witch. She steps on the key and the witch is in the shop. This was a brilliant ad and it seems unconscionable cruelty that one didn’t get a pair.
Best Lines:
“The witch of the forest has stolen the daylight!”
“Just trust your magic shoes!”
“Magic shoes?”

I’ve heard of but never seen the 1989 ‘Miracle Mile’.
‘The Blacklist’ pulls more ridic twists.
The ‘Beyond The Gates’ poster is good.

I won’t read ‘Number 11’ or ‘The Loving Husband’ or ‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’ issue 10x27.

On ‘Neighbours’: Toadie and his corpulence is arrogant and disrespectful, petty, mean and hurtful. Where did Nate’s PTSD go? Paige keeps showing off why the actress is a bra model. Are we sure Aaron and Nate are a couple? Because they never act affectionately. Karl and Susan act as the carers for wayward teenage boys, amnesia sufferers and the emotional well-being of Karl’s many, many mistresses. Nobody has sweat ponds. There is no stoically borne tragedy for Terese. Her clothes have to be a gag.

Cleared out a 1998 tape. It began with an ‘X Files’ ep ‘Anasazi’ which was dull and full of unarticulated and inarticulable secrets. There was a good cliffhanger though. Then came a ‘The Pretender’ ep ‘Silence’ wherein Jarod has confrontational moxie in a dull ep. Then came a ‘Relic Hunter’ ep ‘Vampire Kiss’ in which a vampire (Adrian Paul) has swinging bachelorhood and this bored. Finally there was another ‘The Pretender’ ep ‘Stolen’ which was cotton candy carnage.
