spooky tuesday is a (now not so new!) podcast where we’re breaking down all of our favorite slashers, thrillers, monster movies and black comedies on the new scariest day of the week.

it's no trick (and not just because april fools' day was yesterday): we really are doing jurassic park (1993) on our latest episode. though many have questioned whether or not the steven spielberg classic technically counts as horror, we're ready to put the matter to bed, tuck it in tight, and wish it sweet dinosaur dreams… or at least terrifying t-rex nightmares. because let's be real — this flick freaked us all out as kids, and given the fact that it's a movie about the og monsters, it definitely meets spooky tuesday's standards. no one can take on three raptors alone, though, which is why we invited why the flick's claire white to be our guide on this dangerous expedition.

and don’t forget! our merch store is open now through 11:59 p.m. pst on friday, april 12! head on over to pick up your spooky swag!

give spooky tuesday a listen on apple podcasts, spotify, iheart radio, or stitcher

Here's a very intriguing scan from the JP sticker book: This appears to be a shot in the control room, (maybe when everyone bails out of the Explorers and goes to see the sick triceratops), featuring a female technician. She's just barely visible in the background of the control room in a few scenes. I think this is Lata Ryan, one of the associate producers. Additionally, this photo also exists in color (but I have not seen it).

miss anthro’s film recs: May 2021

Jurassic Park 1993: Watched this for the third time in a month today to celebrate it's release 28 years ago. Like most excellent films, it was created by a lucky intersection of talent. The remarkable premise was crafted into a brilliant script by David Koepp and author Michael Crichton; it was tight, clean, fast-paced - no plot holes and unnecessary scenes. Steven Spielberg really did a fantastic job of making a cohesive production and giving it a kind of emotional continuity. The cast is outstanding. I could write an essay about each one. Richard Attenborough brings pathos to John Hammond, the delusional tycoon. Sam Neill is perfect as Alan Grant, a jaded paleontologist who finds deeper compassion. Laura Dern gives a raw performance as the resolute and charming paleo-botanist Ellie Sattler. Jeff Goldblum stars as Ian Malcolm, chaotician and prototype "rock-star scientist." Bob Peck is wonderful as the sensible game warden Robert Muldoon. Samuel L. Jackson works his magic as sardonic chief engineer Ray Arnold. And of course, excellent performances from Martin Ferrero, Wayne Knight, Joseph Mazzello, and Ariana Richards. The special and physical effects are remarkable and most of them remain so nearly three decades later, including the life-sized animatronic Tyrannosaurus rex and just the right amount of CGI. Cinematography by Dean Cundey features god-tier-level use of scale framing. Not to mention great use of color, blocking, sound, costume, John Williams' beautiful score - you name it, this film really has everything going for it. Is this a perfect film? No, but it gets bloody close. Unmissable science-fiction that examines the horror unleashed by the arrogance of mankind. 

The Birdcage 1996: This 25* year old film is a real gem. While the modern viewer (myself included) could find fault with some stereotypes, etc., the classic comedy has aged quite well. There’s a lot of slapstick and hysterically funny and clever dialogue. Williams and Lane are outstanding. There’s a very touching scene between the two of them which is very romantic and sweet. And of course the whole cast is perfect. I’m always impressed by this film when I haven’t seen it in a while.

The Moon-Spinners 1964: You don’t need to be a Disney fan to love this incredible classic. Hayley Mills is well loved but I don’t think she’s given enough credit for being not only a brilliant child actor but also a great actor as she aged. Her performance is stellar. The whole movie is fun and tense, bringing Mary Stewart’s novel to life in the great and beautiful country of Greece. It’s a fun adventure from start to finish with humor and romance.

Fairytale: A True Story 1997: Want to cry your eyes out about the Cottingley fairy hoax of 1917? You may not trust me but I recommend this experience. Honestly, this movie is life-changing. This is a depiction of a real life story involving historical figures. Usually no one gets that quite right but this movie kinda does. Peter O’Toole looks nothing like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but Harvey Keitel looks remarkably like Harry Houdini. Something about the music and what they do with this story gets into your bloodstream. I couldn’t possibly spoil for anyone who knows nothing about it, but I can say that there is some incredible CGI and a scene where someone faces retribution from an unexpected and shocking source.

edit 2023:

*now 27

I found this in my drafts. Clearly, life got in the way and I didn’t continue my recommendation posts (I have the templates drafted in text form.) Also, while drafting this edit I was attacked by a small beetle. I remain unharmed and have released the beetle into its natural environment.

last song i listened to?

- another amazing song by the mother upon ALL mothers

currently watching?

- icl, all i watch is 90s, 80s, and 70s movies over and over again

- tv show wise, probably breaking bad or surprisingly dance moms (the entertainment in seeing 40 year old fucking women arguing over dance is amazing lmao)

- and ofc the horror genre bc i do love me some good old horror movies

currently reading?

- both jurassic park novels by michael crichton. two of which inspired the first two movies of course.

- 100% recommend you read them after watching the movies, and realising how different they are.

- the novels are fuckin brutal, and much more sci-fi horror!!

current obsession?

- every horror movie you could imagine. but, if we’re talking proper obsessions as of right now, DEFINITELY jurassic park.

- plus a star is born because that movie makes me ugly cry everytime i rewatch

- nothing better than a good old classic like that with laura dern, sam neill, jeff goldblum, richard attenborough, samuel l. jackson, bob peck and wayne knight.

- also i can’t stop listening to korn and bon jovi idefk if that’s relevant but

- AND I’VE BEEN WANTING TO GO BLONDE FOR SO DAMN LONG (rip my long, naturally straight, dark brown hair) SO I’M GETTING THAT DONE ON FRIDAY SO PERHAPS I MIGHT BE OBSESSED WITH MY HAIR?? 😭😭

The hatch dilates, like an iris, or…

Heavy breathing: Dallas descends down the birth canal wielding a torch.

"Ripley. Close all the hatches behind me. I'm moving on." The second half of Jurassic Park—Laura Dern and Bob Peck and Richard Attenborough and Samuel L. Jackson shutting down the park—owes a debt to this film. What with all the Bladerunner-esque smoky noir shots, the comms and containment protocols and control panels. The metal grates and heavy breathing, the dark and baroquely lit rooms, man v nature. The flashlight-wielding basement-exploring hands (Dern, Jackson) that execute the orders of central command (Attenborough).

"It's in the basement." "This whole place is a basement." "It's a metaphor." Lynch and Freud would be proud. These are the ugly underbellies of our collective psyches. These are the realities of nature which our civilization colludes to suppress.
