My favorite album of all time, Depeche Mode's Black Celebration, was released 40 years ago today - March 17, 1986. Considered one of the finest synth-pop / industrial / darkwave albums ever made, it marked the moment Depeche Mode embraced a darker, more sophisticated, gothic-leaning sound. Many describe it as their creative coming-of-age: richer textures, industrial percussion, brooding atmospheres, and a cohesive mood that feels cinematic & immersive. Unlike albums built around a few big singles, Black Celebration presents a front-to-back experience with almost no filler. Tracks like the title song, "A Question of Lust," "Stripped” (my favorite of all time), “Fly on the Windscreen," & “But Not Tonight" create a unified dark, sexy, desperate world exploring lust, alienation, corruption, mortality, & the search for real connection. It is danceable darkness that still feels cutting-edge 40 years later. I love that it directly inspired major acts (Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails cited it as a key influence on Pretty Hate Machine) & launched the band's legendary four-album run (Black Celebration → Music for the Masses → Violator → Songs of Faith and Devotion), which many regard as one of the strongest creative streaks in modern music. For many longtime fans like me, it's the most indispensable Depeche Mode album, even over the more commercially massive Violator. The increased presence of Martin Gore's vulnerable lead vocals, Dave Gahan's most expressive singing to that point, and the bleak-yet-hopeful romanticism hit deeply. Some call it the moment the band became "serious artists" rather than just hit-makers. On my wall is the original vinyl from 1986, signed by all members of the band. A true keepsake.

OK what are your top "guy/girl and Ghost" movies and tv shows? I'm talking about things like BBCs Ghosts, Teen Angel, Ghost (the movie) anything where a person can see a ghost that no one else can see.

Maybe it’s unusual to post something like this. Just me, standing there, looking out, feeling that pull again. But this is not a performance. Exploration isn’t a trend. It isn’t content. It’s a mindset. It’s the refusal to look away when something doesn’t make sense. It’s the willingness to go back out there after setbacks, criticism, doubt, and still keep searching. Curiosity is not weakness. It’s strength. It’s courage. To explore is to accept resistance. To accept that not everyone will understand. To accept that answers don’t come easy. But you keep going anyway. You dive again. You analyze again. You question again. Because the truth matters more than comfort. Transparency matters. Openness matters. The work matters. No matter the obstacles. No matter the noise. This is what drives me. The sea. The unknown. The unanswered questions waiting in the dark. I won’t stop…. It’s just me. #Explorer #Exploration #UAP #UAPs #UFO #UFOs #Disclosure #TruthSeeker #Mystery #UnansweredQuestions #OceanExplorer #DeepSea #BalticSea #Transparency #Science #Discovery #Unknown #BeyondTheSurface #SeekTheTruth #NeverGiveUp

RIP Tom Noonan (1951-2026) Manhunter (1986) Director: Michael Mann Tom Noonan on how he got cast for the role of Francis Dollarhyde by Michael Mann in "Manhunter" (1986): "I went up to this casting place, and I saw they're bring in all these people from Steppenwolf - the theater company in Chicago that we all love so much. I had an appointment at 10:00 and then it got pushed to 10:30, 11, 11:30. I was starting to get really unhappy, and all these people are going in - I think from Steppenwolf, that's probably just my paranoia. Finally they brought me in and I was really fu**ing pissed off. That's all I knew: I was going to get in there and I was going to read the fu**ing scene, and just leave. So I was really mad, I didn't have a plan about how to do this thing. I go in and Michael Mann's there. Michael's sort of a scary guy, even though he's not huge, and I learned over time that you really don't talk back to him or give him shit, ever. He's like Napoleon. I walked up and I said, "Listen, I'm gonna read and then I'm gonna leave, OK?" He said, "OK." I sat down. There was a woman reading with me, who apparently was a casting assistant but now she was the casting person and was going to read with me. They put her opposite me, and I don't know...I didn't do anything, but she started to get really frightened of me, which made me feel really excited and full of myself. Michael got real excited and started wandering around the room. I could feel that he was really into what I was doing too, and I thought, "I got this job." Then I finished, and he started to talk to me. I said, "I told you. I'm reading and now I'm leaving." I just walked out. I called my agent, and he said, "What do you mean, you walked out when he wanted to talk to you?" I said, "No, he kept me waiting an hour and a half and f**k him." He said, "He wants to talk to you. If he doesn't talk to you, you're not going to get the job." I said, "Well, let's just let him think about it for a while." I did go back in and talk to him for like a minute. He said, "I have one question." I said, "Good." He said, "You're really scary. How do you do that?" I said, "Michael, the secret to being scary is to be really scared. Because when you're really scared, people are really scared of you." He said, "Wow," I said, "OK," and I left. I got the job. Now, I'd not worked much. I was making a little bit from my acting, but I was really poor and desperate, and this is a real part. I proceeded then to turn it down about five times. I just wanted to get paid more than they were willing to pay me. They wanted to pay me like $35,000 to do this whole movie. That was money back in 1985, but I said, "I'm not doing it for under $100,000." My agent said, "You're crazy." Somehow, they ended up giving me that amount of money." [Quote taken from IMDb]

A Cure for Wellness was released 10 years ago. The eerie wellness center was built and filmed in a real abandoned sanatorium in Germany. Gore Verbinski used the actual architecture and isolation to create unease.

In 1976, Yorkshire TV's children's show Music Scene highlighted the importance of music in TV productions by adapting M.R. James' MR HUMPHREYS AND HIS INHERITANCE. Oh, and it scared the pants off its young audience with this startling stop-motion sequence!

Jack O’Connell took the role in Sinners (2025) after just one read. He’d always wanted to sing Irish folk music on screen, and this film finally gave him the chance.
