A wanna be writer. An Iron Mutant and graduate of the Briggs Academy of the Drive-In Cinematic Arts. The book guy for #MutantFam and a lover of everything Pittsburgh; and yes, Lifeforce is a masterpiece.
Forty years ago today, one of my favorite movies was released in theaters: Highlander. Celebrate by watching @therealjoebob123.bsky.social host the movie on The Lost Drive-In...and there can be only one. 😏 #MutantFam

Finally, the top story from Richard Matheson's masterful collection, and everyone's going to recognize it from the hellish Zuni fetish doll. Yes, I speak of Prey. #MutantBookClub #MutantFam

Same here. I Am Legend is a masterpiece.
As promised, #MutantFam, today we're featuring the second best story from Richard Matheson's 'Nightmare at 20,000 Feet' collection: Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. Yes, it doesn't take the top spot, that's how good this collection is. #MutantBookClub

For a few weeks I'm going to profile three Richard Matheson stories from his Nightmare at 20,000 Feet collection. First up: Long Distance Call. Sit back, relax and let us journey through a writer's work that is legend. #MutantBookClub #MutantFam

Guess where I am #MutantFam? Here's a hint. It's been called the birthplace of modern horror. #MutantBookClub @therealjoebob123.bsky.social @darcythemailgirl.bsky.social

Joe Bob, from the ones who have been with you since Dallas to the folks who discovered you along the way, may this birthday bring you even half the joy you bring into our lives. If it does, it might just be the best damned birthday this planet has ever seen.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOE BOB!
#MutantFam
Have you ever wished you could fly? That question in the hands of Joe Hill takes a sinister turn in his short story The Cape, that we're still thankful was released on the world. @darcythemailgirl.bsky.social #MutantBookClub #MutantFam

Same here.
I do as well, but I enjoyed Occultation more. I love short stories though, and The Croning's fragmented story makes it hard to follow the until the end.
I'm going to introduce a writer that doesn't need an introduction in horror circles, and that's Laird Barron and his debut novel—The Croning. Let's journey through some cosmic horror that only Barron can conjure. #MutantBookClub #MutantFam

Start. We meet on The Lost Drive-In Discord at the beginning of the following month to discuss the book.
January's #MutantBookClub selection is our first read of John Hornor Jacobs with his new release, The Night That Finds Us All. As usual, we'll meet in the The Lost Drive-In Discord to discuss. #MutantFam

We want to take a moment to honor @manwithpez.bsky.social beloved Mutant and guest host who has sadly passed away.

Tomorrow in @TheLostDriveIn Discord, meet me there to discuss November's #MutantBookClub selection. We'll meet at our usual time, 7pm Eastern. #MutantFam

The Visible Filth pays a visit to the #MutantFam today. Nathan Ballingrud's infamous novella is featured on the #MutantBookClub, so, come with me as we travel through the grotesque imagination of Nathan Ballingrud.

Join us, next Sunday, December 14th at 7pm, as we discuss our November selection—and Bram Stoker Award winner for Best Novel—The Haunting of Velkwood by Gwendolyn Kiste. As always we'll be meeting in The Lost Drive In Discord. #MutantFam #MutantBookClub

I so wish they were. Christian Bale would be cast with Christopher Nolan directing.
You're welcome. I love your books and always look forward to your new releases. I also look forward to seeing Psychic Santa as a movie. It's one of the best short stories on redemption.
The final story highlighted from @claymcleod.bsky.social Acquired Taste is my favorite of the collection: Psychic Santa. If anyone would ask me for a story that seemed it was written by Rod Serling, then this is the one. #MutantBookClub #MutantFam
