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.

spookies, we’ll ALWAYS know the joys of i know what you did last 🤘 SUMMER 🤘, but it’s time to put this theme event on ice — especially since the third movie moves to a little ski town in the off-season. not the final film in a trilogy so much as a bonus flick in the franchise, i’ll always know what you did last summer (2006) isn’t afraid to shake things up. and by that we mean, leave behind pretty much any familiar name or face outside of the infamous fisherman outfit. if you’re wondering what this slasher’s boogeyman is doing all the way out in colorado, you’re not alone, but you’ll need to see it to believe it. and if you don’t believe it, well, we’re sharing our theories on the newest episode of spooky tuesday.

I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006)

Slender Man (2018)

I’ll believe in magic wands and dragons before believing anyone would find 2018’s Slender Man scary. Based on the creepypasta internet meme (which generates as much confidence as the inspiration for The Emoji Movie), the film’s characters are so dumb you’ll be cheering for the supernatural entity to take them down. You'll grow cobwebs waiting. Even at 98 minutes, this thinly plotted film feels padded.

Best friends Wren (Joey King), Hallie (Julia Goldani Telles), Chloe (Jaz Sinclair) and Katie (Annalise Basso) playfully research “Slender Man”, a forest-dwelling supernatural creature whose appearance resembles a faceless man in a black suit, and is reported to steal children. After a forum-posted video begins to cause nightmares and other discomforts, they suspect there's some truth behind the internet legend.

I’m just going to go ahead and say it. I know Slender Man is a popular character among those too young to read horror novels but the character is not frightening. Firstly, it’s badly designed. It’s a faceless, thin man in a suit with a red tie… and tentacles coming out of its back! While the idea of it invading your psyche is frightening, we’ve seen that before. It was lame two years before when we were subjected to The Bye Bye Man. In 2018, 9 years after the creature’s popularization through the internet? Slender Man isn’t spooky at all. Secondly, even if it was the stuff of nightmares, the special effects that bring it to life are so awful there’s no way you can take them seriously. Third- and most importantly - the people we see trying to escape from it are so impossibly stupid you can’t relate to them, which means you can’t picture yourself as one of Slender Man’s victims. It's a death knell for any horror film.

Before you protest with a “But aren’t all characters in movies forced to make certain dumb moves for the plot to kick off?” understand that I’m not calling them dimmer than a dead lightbulb under two meters of garbage because they choose to “invoke” Slender Man through his internet video (a video that has an uncanny resemblance to the one we saw in The Ring). What I mean is that the four young women who find themselves haunted by visions of the apparition can’t decide whether they’re afraid or not. After Katie vanishes, her friends become convinced Slender Man is responsible - convinced enough to sneak out of their houses in the middle of the night and bring their most precious belongings as tributes to the child-thief. Chloe tears the only photo she has of herself with her deceased father. It's proof she’s taking this seriously but that doesn’t stop her from disregarding all of the instructions once the ritual begins. Then, when Slender Man begins live-streaming itself breaking into her home, she doesn’t even attempt to run away. She doesn’t even try to lock the door. She doesn’t even try to close the door! All she does is stare at the POV shot coming closer and closer to her, as if thinking “I can’t wait to see where this is going!”

I’m going to zone in on that Ring-style video as a clear-cut sign that this movie was made for the name recognition alone. It might've even been a "find-replace" script. We see “spooky” black-and-white imagery of abstract things, including an all-seeing eye. It doesn’t offer any clues on how to proceed, what Slender Man wants, how to beat it, or anything. The images we see certainly have nothing to do with the horrendously rendered nightmares of Wren giving birth to Slender Man’s baby. It’s just stuff thrown at the screen to kill time.

Directed by Sylvain White, written by David Birke and all thanks to Screen Gems, Slender Man is so inept you’d think it would at the very least be ironically entertaining. It isn’t. For the briefest moment, we get a glimpse of what makes Wren, Hallie, Chloe and Katie tick; a few minutes where they speak and act like real teenage girls. Afterward, you don’t learn a thing about them. They become dull slabs of meat for the monster to make disappear. It’s impossible to care about what’s happening, which means Slender Man will have you bored out of your skull. (January 7, 2022)

OMG OMG DID YOU SEE DID YOU SEE DID YOU SEE

ACE TRAPPOLA LOUNGE WEAR GROOVY HHJVDVJSXAJXKCDNCS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASJFNDNFF HES SO CUUUUJTEEEEE!!!!!

Someone's excited, huh?

Yes, I saw! I tend to look at new birthday artwork as soon as I can so I can get inspiration for the brief one-shots I write in celebration of each NRC boy's birthday. In fact, I'm writing Ace's as we speak!

It feels very intentional on the part of the devs to have Ace running late; it suits his character (since we know he kind of slacks and stays up late talking to his brother) but it's also a clever reference to the White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland running late for a very important date. AGDVSASDLVIYwqvsssdB His bedhead makes him look SO much like Sylvain 😭 THE FUCKBOI WITH A HEART OF GOLD FROM FE3H.. . . ..... . . ...... .. .. .. . . .... . . . .

I like the little details about his dorm life sprinkled in the illustration: the comics/magazines (?) falling off of his bed--did he fall asleep while reading them?--and the sticker on the back of his phone. We've seen so few phones from the characters (I think the only prominent one we see is Cater's; we know the other characters own phones but we rarely get to see the full designs for them), so it's nice to add another one to our list.

I don't really know what else to say here other than good for you, Ace got a cute Groovy ^^; even if he's panicking in it... There's sort of a charm in that panic!

Sometimes I get asks and I'm like "wow I have no idea how to reply" and then three days later I go "wait no I know how".

So here anon, take some acknowledgment of sorts? (Thank you for thinking of me with goarse physics but idk how to animal so)
