I have some pretty glaring questions that kind of go unanswered. Wanna talk about it in a new thread for the movie or the random chat so we don't spoil the movie for anyone else?
Start a spoiler thread. I would like to discuss it because with that there's gonna be questions

Fuck it. That one's next then. I'll put it in in the next hour or two. Currently building a web application through a MYsql Database and JetBrains Rider for a final project in this coding trade school I'm going through.

Is there a rule against seeing a movie twice for the challenge? Never really thought about it, but I'm considering possibly one more theater viewing of The Substance before it disappears forever.

How good was A Return to Salem's Lot? I haven't seen it and it seems to have generally awful reviews. I would blind buy it but it's going for around 30 bucks and I am not ready to pay that much for a movie if it's worse than bad.

Not worth 30 in my opinion

I'd like to bang out a back-to-back when I have extra time and watch both Salem's Lot and Return but if Return is that bad I'll just stick with a rewatch of Salem's Lot and move on.

Dr. Satán (1966) might sound hokey - an evil scientist, zombie henchmen, a counterfiet money operation, and an Interpol investigation - but it was played straight, and Joaquín Cordero did a solid job as the titular Dr. Satán. Plus, the devil himself made two appearances, which was fun.

I last watched Return in October 2022 and gave it a C grade
