The cover of Communion scarred my psyche more than anything else, ever. As a kid I spent a lot of nights convinced if I took my head out from under my covers, one of those fuckers would be staring right down at me.
communion is one of very few books i found myself unable to finish due to exceeding my tolerance for creepiness. in fact, off the top of my head i can't think of any others. but there have probably been a few over the years.
The movie version of Communion with Christopher Walken is super creepy too. I don't know that the movie itself is that great, but the vibe is dead on. I think the whole movie is on YouTube.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
