The Pitch

The tradition continues with another horror short story for Halloween. This year it's another story from The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers. "The Mask" is the story of a love triangle between three artists in Paris, which is disrupted by a miraculous elixer and a stray copy of the accursed play.

Thank you so much for your support, and have a safe and happy Halloween!

Everything To Guppy is a bite-sized, four-times weekly comedy/gaming podcast in which Gary Butterfield (Watch Out For Fireballs) and William Hughes (The A.V. Club) attempt to analyze every single item, boss, character, and concept in the rogue-lite video game The Binding Of Isaac. They manage to pull it off only slightly less than 50 percent of the time.

This is a different episode of this show. Instead of talking about one widely released film, we're instead talking about short films displayed at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival. We cover six shorts that can be found on the 2016 collection and 2018 collection (2017 knows what it did).

I did my best to find online versions of each of the films discussed, or at least trailers, so you can have a point of reference. Here's the list, in order.

• The Package
• The Call of Charlie 
• An Eldritch Place 
• Irreparable
• The Music of John Low 
• Young Liars 

Gary also shares his experience at the 2019 festival.

Big spongy DSLs.

Even joins me to talk about the short story "Everything's Eventual", which introduces the unwitting psychic assassin Dinky Earnshaw. Some bad dialogue aside, this Dark Tower side story is tightly written, and does a great job at inducing both paranoia and impostor syndrome.

This is a boring adventure game for nerds, so we get depressed about the Darke Gyfte.

When the villain is also the setting.

Gary and Kole are contractually obligated to talk about this very good 2d Soulslike that is basically overflowing some good ideas and fun boss fights (and also has some not as good boss fights, to be fair). This is the first episode of our coverage, talking about generalities and up to the hub area.
