Tonight’s Halloween season movie is The Waves of Madness. It’s a shorter movie (1hr 8 min)
This movie is only for those that are interested in something completely different. The movie is black and white, and is shot almost like an old 2D video game. The characters move only left or right. They change levels in an elevator. And the actors almost talk like a stage play.
The story is a cruise ship has gone off course and an automated message broadcast says not to approach. An agent is sent to find out what is going on. The movie has Russians, Cultists and monsters.
When I first started it, I was not sure I would like it, but it grows on you as you get into what they are doing.
I like it….. and if you watch it, check out the mid credit scene.

@DexArcanaTTRPG I would like to use the modules some day, but probably not. The stroke has probably made it impossible to run a game again. But I can at least play when I find people (currently in a D&D game) that run games.

Another horror TTRPG is the goat, Call of Cthulhu. This is the reprint of the first edition box as well as several modules.

@KevinLamb74 It was the Kickstarter that shipped in 2022.

Another 80s series that involved Time Travel is Cross-Time Engineer. The series dealing with a Polish engineer that finds himself in 1231 AD and wants to stop the Mongrel Invasion that happens in 10 years.

@Dystopian_Dawn @DT2ComicsChat Unfortunately. I watched him in the 70s as a kid.

@thetshirtedone The moon being blasted out of orbit in 1999 caused problems

Tonight’s Halloween season movie. The Empty Man.
Unfortunately, the marketing not good for this movie and made people think it was a Candyman or Bloody Mary type of slasher. It is nothing like that.
It is a slow burn movie with Mystery and horror parts. In the end I would call it a cosmic horror story.
A man goes looking for the daughter of a friend that has gone missing.

@Purplelady853 I worked for a theater when this came out in highschool.

@Ramijin1 An RPG would have been great!

A time travel book series from the 80s is Timewars.
Time travel has caused issues so an organization is tasked with stopping the people that are trying to change History.

I don’t have many horror themed TTRPS, but most of what I do have are Lovecraft related.
Eldritch Skies is a scifi horror game. This is a Savage Worlds version (I don’t know if there are other versions).

@JJShurte @TheEclecticGoat I need to start it again. I had to wait for each season and I think that is why it irritated me. Get to something that seemed to be a cool place to check out. Then wait a year to be taken away from it and start over.

@Lutra_Gaming @Ganglosaxonnne Most of my marines are from a couple of those boxes.

Tonight’s Halloween season movie is Butterfly Kisses. A Mocumentary about a found footage movie. It is different in that usually a movie is one or the other.
The movie is one of the better movies of this type. The acting is pretty good in that I disliked the main guy looking into the found footage. I knew people like him. I hope he is not like this in real life. :-)

@JJShurte @TheEclecticGoat One person that was heading someplace. He finds someplace that seemed a big place to be. Then he is back in town and dealing with town again. Somebody else winds up dealing with the big place but it is later .

Tonight’s Halloween season movie is Iron Lung. The first time I have watched it.
A movie by a YouTuber based on a video game. In the future, something happened and all the stars and planets vanished. Only some space stations and moons are left.
People found one moon covered in human blood, and the movie takes place as a convict is lowered into a sea of blood in a submarine to explore. He has to take X rays to see what is out there.

@RealCalypsed I think it the first one I am missing.

[Silverlock @silverlock]

Another post apocalyptic book series. Fire in the ashes. I think I had 3 of them at one point. Not sure what happened with my third book.
