OK, FOR EVERYONE who’s never gotten to walk or drive across the Golden Gate Bridge… this one’s for you. I’ve done both now (it’s much easier to drive it!) On my way back to San Francisco after exploring the small seaside towns of Jenner and Bodega Bay an hour or…
I PROBABLY won’t get to posting about the second half of my San Francisco trip for a bit, but in the meantime, here is perhaps the best horror movie trailer that isn’t a trailer of all time: Thanks to Jeff Strand for finding and poaching this first!
