OH NO T.L. BODINE IS STUCK IN A HORROR
11/4/2023
 I wouldn't be opposed to sneakily wiping out The Conjuring franchise. I adore James Wan but I think the Warrens are...not the kind of people who deserve to be celebrated. OH NO T.L. BODINE IS STUCK IN A HORROR You wake up and find yourself in a horror franchise, what franchise would you prefer to wake up in and why? I think I would do quite well in The Purge world. Hear me out. One night a year, all crime is legal, right? No one specifies that it has to be a certain type of crime. I would simply spend the year learning some elite hacking skills. Then, a little before purge night, I'd pack it up and head out to some property my family has in rural northern New Mexico. There's really no reason for anyone to come all the way out there to bother me. All I'd need is a generator, a laptop, and a mobile hot spot and I'd spend purge night using my newly acquired hacking skills to go wipe out student loan debt, empty corporate bank accounts, blackmail billionaires...I don't know, some kind of mischief. It's all legal for the night, and everyone else will be too busy killing each other to notice, right? You find yourself as the “Final One” which monster / villain would you most like to go up against and why do you think you would survive? I don't really have a Final Girl constitution. I think I embody much more of the “wise-cracking friend who gets murdered late in the film” role, or else the “walk-on role with esoteric yet helpful information” role. That said, I feel like I can take on Chucky. He's crafty, he's persistent, but...come on. Look at him. I'm pretty sure I can punt him before he does too much damage. And which creature would you least like to go up against? The Thing. Look. I'm predisposed toward paranoia already. And I've played enough Werewolf to know that everyone always finds me suspicious no matter what I do in these types of situations. I'd be in trouble before the alien even got close to me. You find yourself in Scooby Doo, which character are you, and who would you most like to have as the other members of Mystery Inc? I am definitely the Velma of the crew. If I brought along my dachshund, my husband, my best friend, and her spouse, we would basically perfectly replicate the Scooby Gang, except with creakier knees. We're a little old to be meddling kids, but I would enjoy living in a world where evil rich scammers could be unmasked and face some kind of consequences. Pinhead pops round for an evening of fun, what are you pains and pleasures? Whatever they are currently, I'm quite sure I'll discover plenty of new ones before the night is over. The Wishmaster gives you three wishes 1. You can wish to write in any franchise 2. You can wipe on franchise from the minds of everyone 3. You can date your horror crush What do you chose? 1 – I would love to do something new with Gremlins. That was a really formative horror franchise for me as a child, especially Gremlins 2, which I watched a lot and probably imprinted on like a little baby bird. It's such a deep thematic well to draw from! Responsible pet ownership, cultural appropriation, capitalist decay... 2 – It's not really my place to go obliterating anything from the canon or robbing folks of their pleasant experiences with media that even I find unpleasant. But I wouldn't be opposed to sneakily wiping out The Conjuring franchise. I adore James Wan but I think the Warrens are...not the kind of people who deserve to be celebrated. 3 – I mean, you did say a certain Hellpriest would be visiting...if you'll excuse me, I think there are some sights for me to be shown.
