"Shopaholic" is not an easy word to use. But I found this TV movie: "The 12-Year-Old Shopaholic and Other Big Spending Kids" (2014)

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2

I considered going to see a screening of AKIRA last night - presumably the "restored" version you mention. I'd be sad to see "the shortcuts in the animation become more visible". I'm surprised that's a Thing but frankly HD has done no favors to many beloved spectacles from my childhood. I made the mistake of watching part of ALIENS in HD at some point. Cameron simply didn't mean for us to see all the detail in all the deep shadows... 

But every time I've ever revisited AKIRA I'm still impressed. The attention to detail and the character animation is impeccable. Maybe I'll stick to my old VHS in perpetuity.

A South African one for you: BEYOND THE LIGHT BARRIER (2023), a docco concerning the South African woman Elizabeth Klarer who claimed to have not only witnessed a UFO visiting South Africa on numerous occasions but also to have had a physical relationship with one of the people from out there.

Although I believe that there are other people in our universe, I find her claim of being made pregnant by Captain Jerk a little bit hard to swallow 😳😏😉

Maybe it was Zapp Brannigan?

I didn't even realize there were more than 6 HOWLINGS!

Perhaps AMITYVILLE is the winner. Most of those 25 AMITYVILLEs came out just in the past decade, I think!

In service of nothing, SAW! THE MUSICAL just played for five weeks in Buffalo. It's been touring around the country, apparently. It did great business. They rented one of the theaters I work with and the admin (in spite of making money) found it all rather distasteful. There were walk-outs, and there were lots of patrons who don't appear to be the usual theatergoers and mightn't return in the future. Handfuls of that latter lot were drunk before and or during the show and at least one had to be removed by the Production Manager. Madame wanted to go see it and somehow we never made time. The informed word of mouth was just... discouraging, I guess. Maybe a live musical version spells doom for the franchise?

Go look for a copy of Evil Dead: The Musical.
