🧛🌙 **Get Ready for Starlight Monster Movie Madness: *In A Lonely Place* This Saturday Night!** 🌙🧛

Image
Monstrous movie buffs, get your calendars out and save the date! This Saturday at precisely **10:45 pm**, Starlight Monster Movie Madness is back with a film that’s as chilling as it is timeless: **In A Lonely Place** (1950). You’ve heard of film noir, but this is film noir with a twist – starring the one and only Humphrey Bogart in one of his darkest, most complex roles. Don’t miss out on the live chat where you can gossip, scream, and share all the thrills with fellow fans! 👻💬🕵️‍♂️ **Why You Can’t Miss *In A Lonely Place* 🎬💔** via GIPHY Let’s be honest, when Bogart isn’t busy being a rogue, he’s… well, still being a rogue. But here, he’s Dixon Steele, a Hollywood screenwriter with a serious temper – and maybe even a murderous streak. 🍷🔪 It’s a movie that blends romance, suspense, and enough dark alleys to keep you wondering who’s trustworthy and who’s just out of their mind. Director Nicholas Ray delivers a psychological thriller that holds up to this day, and watching i

**🌙🧛‍♂️ Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *Nightbreed: Director's Cut [Broadcast Edit]* (1990) – Monsters, Misfits, and a Lot of Studio Meddling 🧛‍♂️🌙**

Image
So, we’ve arrived at this year’s Spooktober "special" pick from Coconutdaddy – *Nightbreed: Director's Cut [Broadcast Edit].* Let’s just say if you thought regular *Nightbreed* was wild, then you’ve got another thing coming with the Director’s Cut and its *Broadcast Edit*. It’s like Clive Barker and the network executives got together to throw a party, and no one could agree on the guest list! 🎉🤡 This is a movie where monsters, weirdos, and unsung heroes come together in a labyrinthine underworld called *Midian* – which sounds like the afterlife's discount basement. But don’t let the funhouse of creatures fool you; this is Barker’s attempt at an epic tale of good, evil, and, well, monsters with personality. Think of it as a *Freaks* meets *Star Wars*, but with 90s practical effects and a plot that’s more tangled than your old cassette tapes. 📼🕸️ **The Plot – Love, Murder, and a Secret Monster Society in the Basement 🏚️💔** Our main guy, Boone (Craig Sheffer

**🕰️👻 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *Waxwork II: Lost in Time* (1992) – Because Nothing Says "Sequel" Like Time Travel and Bad Puns 👻🕰️**

Image
So, Coconutdaddy has brought us a *real gem* for Spooktober this year – *Waxwork II: Lost in Time,* a movie so proudly bonkers it makes your aunt’s holiday fruitcake look like a Michelin-starred dessert. 🎂 This one’s for the folks who like their horror with a side of goofy humor and a main course of “What the heck is even happening?” 🤔 We’re talking about a film that starts with wax figures coming to life and ends up tumbling through time with no logic in sight. It’s like *Bill & Ted* but with monsters, less Keanu, and zero excuses. Because apparently, nothing quite screams “follow-up horror” like time travel, ghostly arm wrestling, and a medieval jousting sequence. 🙄⚔️ **The Plot – Time-Traveling Horror’s Greatest Missed Opportunity** ⏳👀** For those who missed the first *Waxwork* (good news – you didn’t miss much), here’s the scoop. We follow Mark (Zach Galligan of *Gremlins* fame) and Sarah as they barely escape the waxy nightmares of part one. But wait! Sarah’s got a haunte

**👽🥒 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *Invasion of the Body Snatchers* (1978) – Where Paranoia Meets Pod People 🥒👽**

Image
Ah, *Invasion of the Body Snatchers* – a tale as old as time: just another ordinary day in San Francisco, until your best friend’s suddenly got dead eyes and zero personality. No, it’s not a tech startup convention – it’s the 1978 remake of the sci-fi classic, and Coconutdaddy is serving up this paranoid fever dream for your Spooktober fix. This isn’t your typical alien invasion flick – there’s no laser guns or green Martians, just some unsettling plants that want to replace every single person with a boring, soulless clone. Sounds like my last blind date. 🙄👥 **The Plot – Invasion of the Salad Bar 🌿🥒** So, you’ve got Matthew Bennell, a health inspector who discovers that people around him are being replaced by emotionless doppelgängers. How does he figure it out? Well, it’s 70s San Francisco, so naturally, his botanist friend finds a weird new plant and thinks, “This is totally normal, right?” Spoiler: it’s not normal. In fact, it’s a whole alien ecosystem taking over human m

**🧟‍♂️💀 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *Return of the Living Dead Part II* (1988) – Zombies Are Back...and They’re Hungry for Laughs! 🧟‍♀️💀**

Image
Oh, *Return of the Living Dead Part II,* where the brain-munching dead meet 80s camp and comedy. If the first movie wasn’t ridiculous enough for you, then you’re in for a treat. This sequel amps up the absurdity, swaps out any real scares for a heap of slapstick humor, and serves it up with enough neon green ooze to make a Ninja Turtle jealous. It's like a zombie movie made by someone who’s a little too hopped up on 80s pop culture and didn't get the memo that these movies are supposed to be scary. 🙄🍿 **The Plot – Zombies 2.0: Electric Boogaloo** 🧟‍♂️⚡ Picture this: It’s 1988, and the U.S. military, in all its infinite wisdom, has once again lost a few barrels of zombie juice. Some kids stumble upon one of these barrels in a graveyard, because of course, that’s exactly where the military would leave it. 🤦‍♂️ So, the barrel pops open, and before you can say "brains," we’re back in zombie-infested suburbia with shambling corpses rising up for another bite at humanit

**🚗💨 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *The Wraith* (1986) – When Revenge Looks Like a Dodge M4S Turbo Interceptor 🚗⚡**

Image
Ah, *The Wraith,* the movie that makes you think, “If I come back from the dead, I’m definitely doing it with a car upgrade.” We’ve got revenge, fast cars, Charlie Sheen, and a neon-lit 80s small town that has a shockingly high tolerance for random drag races. This movie is part ghost story, part action flick, and part car commercial, and somehow, it *works*. Who knew that you could take a movie plot that sounds like the fever dream of a kid obsessed with Hot Wheels and turn it into pure 80s magic? 😎🔥 **The Plot – Vroom Vroom Vengeance** 🏎️💀 The plot is simple yet glorious. Charlie Sheen plays Jake, a mysterious guy who rolls into town with some heavy-duty horsepower and a serious vendetta against the local street gang. The gang, led by Packard Walsh (Nick Cassavetes), has made a business of challenging people to dangerous races, stealing their cars, and, oh yeah, murdering innocent kids. Classic teen antics, right? Enter Jake’s alter-ego, *The Wraith,* a high-tech ghost race

**🌽👹 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *Children of the Corn* (1984) – Beware the Corn, and Whatever’s Lurking Inside It 🌽🔪**

Image
Ah, *Children of the Corn.* It’s that movie where a group of scary little kids somehow convinced all of us that, yes, cornfields are absolutely terrifying. Seriously, who knew a bunch of crop-worshipping kids in Amish outfits could turn one of our most beloved vegetables into a nightmare? And what’s worse, these kids aren’t just playing around with scarecrows and pumpkins—they’ve got a taste for blood. 😳🌾 **Plot Summary – The Horrors of Gatlin, Nebraska** 🌽😱 We’re in rural Nebraska, and if you didn’t already associate small towns with creepy cults, *Children of the Corn* is here to seal the deal. Burt (Peter Horton) and Vicky (Linda Hamilton) are a nice couple just passing through, probably regretting every moment of their decision to drive through a cornfield-laden wasteland. They stumble upon the tiny town of Gatlin, where all the adults have mysteriously disappeared, and the kids have taken over—led by none other than their pint-sized demonic preacher, Isaac. 👶👹 So, what

**👻🎬 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: *The Exorcist III: Legion* (Director’s Cut) – A Spine-Tingling Return to the Darkness 🌒💀**

Image
Alright, horror fans, buckle up and prepare for a spooky trip back to the Georgetown of *The Exorcist*—because we’re about to dive into *The Exorcist III: Legion,* aka “The Sequel We All Pretend is the Real Sequel.” And I don’t blame you for forgetting *Exorcist II: The Heretic,* because… yeah, we all want to forget *that* fever dream. 😅🙈 But this one? This one’s got the chills, the thrills, and the good ol’ demonic spills! 👹💧 **Plot Summary – The Return of Detective Kinderman (and Something Much Darker)** 🌒👮‍♂️ Set 15 years after the whole head-spinning, pea-soup-spewing drama of the original *Exorcist,* we find Detective Kinderman, back on the beat and grappling with a series of truly grisly murders. It’s Georgetown, so naturally, you can’t go three blocks without bumping into a gruesome, sacrilegious crime scene. Enter: a series of murders with a demonic twist, so dark it’ll make you want to grab a crucifix and call it a day. 🪦😨 See, Kinderman’s got an old pal—well, ha

**🎬 Coconutdaddy’s Spooktober Pick: Critters 2 – The Great Egg-scapade! 🥚👾**

Image
Ah, *Critters 2: The Main Course.* Just when you thought it was safe to move back to Grover’s Bend, these fluffy little nightmare furballs roll back into town—bigger, badder, and with a monstrous appetite for anything in their way. If you’re looking for a movie that’s equal parts horror, humor, and mayhem, *Critters 2* is ready to satisfy your craving for the weird and ridiculous! 🍔👹 **The Plot (Or: Alien Eggs Make the Worst Easter Gifts)** The story kicks off with young Bradley Brown (Scott Grimes) returning to his hometown after the events of the first *Critters.* What’s supposed to be a peaceful Easter holiday quickly turns into a sci-fi freak show when someone finds a stash of Critter eggs, mistaking them for, you guessed it, Easter eggs! 🥚🐰 Nothing says “family holiday” quite like carnivorous aliens hatching out of your decorative basket and wreaking havoc on the entire town. These pint-sized alien beasts are ready to chow down on anything and everything in their path, f
