Thanks for the recommendation for Fried Barry, looks like a lot of fun. Much Appreciated! I haven't watched anything out of South Africa for years. Not since Oats Studios which feels like a million years ago now.

Ah yes. The 'Backlog'. I keep seeing films come up on Kodi or Jellfin that I would quite like to watch but there's always a 'but'. I don't know quite when I started obsessively paying attention to exactly how long a film runs but probably somewhere around the same time I started asking myself: "Am I going to fall asleep after an hour?" and "Will I bother picking it up again tomorrow if I do?" Lee Cronin's The Mummy almost fell by the wayside, saved only by the young woman playing the titular being (I thought) rather good (also is he trying for a Clive Barker thing or is just to avoid confusion with Tom Cruise's The Mummy?)

Sometimes I even start films I know for a fact I am not going to watch just so I can sit there grumbling for fifteen minutes or so. In much the same way you might speculate over the existence of an especially egregious turd - "The size! the smell! Who would lay such a thing!?" The Bone Keeper is the most recent one I can remember the name of. Though there seems to be a recent glut of Loosely Lovecraft films that seem to be made of old dried up bits of Shoggoth shit.

I am quite enjoying Widow's Bay though. Thirty five minutes, a monster of the week and it's funny.
