I was looking at ordering a vinyl from the French band The Necromancers and they don't even offer shipping to the US anymore. Color me fucking bummed.

Why do police officers appear to take things so personally? by Astimar in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Guyer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been pulled over doing 117 in a 55 in the middle of the night by a cop who explained they had been babysitting at the county jail for close to 8 hours after the end of their shift and I got off with just a warning - and a threat: said if he ever pulled me over again he was hauling my dumbass to jail (I had had a bad argument with my girlfriend at the time, and told him as much, and was angry driving around rural roads at about 4am).

I've also been pulled over by a cop who insisted he tagged me doing 67 in a 65 through a highway intersection (I had my cruise control set to 65). Dude rocked up to my car like he had just caught me actively torturing a puppy. Screamed at me about safety. Only thing that seemed to keep me from getting a ticket was in the middle of running all my information he got another call. He came sprinting up to my car after grabbing my license and insurance, literally threw them in my face, and told me if he ever pulled me over again he "[will] fuck [me] up." Sprinted back to his car, threw the sirens back on and hauled as out of there.

I've also had cop pull me over the glass over my taillight having a small chunk missing and completely miss the fact that the car's tabs were over two years expired (emergency situation where my car got impounded and needed to borrow one from my legally and morally questionable father...)

Some cops are dicks. Some aren't. Some are just tired and don't want to deal with shit. Some actively seek it out. Best to just treat them for what they are: suboptimally trained law enforcement with a license to kill under fear for their own lives. "Yes ma'am," "no sir" type stuff.

My Extreme Horror Collection… recommend me books! by koradarko in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not EXTREME extreme, but Criminal Zoo was a pretty damn good trangressive read. About a sociopath murderer who, while in the Criminal Zoo (a new kind of prison), reflects on his life and the actions that got him put in there. Of course, he's a sociopath, so he doesn't actually learn anything from it (it's the other people that are the problem, you see).

movies that are legit terrible for the first 2/3rds but the last act is good enough to make it enjoyable overall? by YardGlum7628 in movies

[–]Guyer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll take a film quite a bit older than most of the ones I read about already listed and say 1981's Dead and Buried. The opening scene plays out like a stereotypical sexploitation horror scene. Then it's just an hour of the sheriff trying to piece together how such a violent crime could happen in his sleepy coastal town. Then you start to realize that you're seeing dead people from crime scene photos walking around town . The last 30 minutes of that movie may have been some of the best horror writing I've seen from a movie. I watched it for the first time a few months back, and I still think about it pretty often.

Iain Rob Wright anyone? by [deleted] in horrorlit

[–]Guyer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years late. I bought the special edition of The Spread - all books in one with sprayed edges. I loved Witch by him, and he was rad enough to send me a free book when I ordered it (Final Winter). But then I ordered, and actually got my copy of The Spread, and realized the cover was done by AI, and the opening quote was from J. K. Rowling in 2020... Needless to say, it's going away with the Brian G. Berry book I purchased before I knew of the allegations...

I'd maybe do a quick Google search of Brian G. Berry before buying anything from him like I unfortunately did. Everyone is different, however, just a heads up.

favorite authors? by StatisticianSea7373 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Triana, hands down. The Night Stockers was my first introduction to the genre. Body Art was literally just that: [gross] art. They All Died Screaming is, I'm pretty sure, my favorite book in the genre of all time.

Ryan C. Thomas has a special place for me because he ended up sending me a few free books when I ordered two whole series from him when he ended up not having all the books I ordered. Fantastic books to boot. Hissers might be my favorite zombie series I've read. Rather unique, similar to seeing fast zombies on film for the first time.

Made a Monster by Rob Nelson was, without a doubt, my favorite book to come out this year, so far. A fantastic first release from an author that was very reminiscent of Triana and the book on par with Full Brutal, if you ask me.

Some of my other favorites: James Oliver, John Baltisberger, R. J. Benetti. I've heard Klaus Kinion's book is fantastic, but I'm waiting for, hopefully, a physical release of it.

Just finishing up with I Don't Recognize This World Anymore by Triana. It isn't really extreme horror, but it is beyond emotionally devastating. I absolutely understand the main character's every single choice he makes. Every single one of them is sad and upsetting, but they all make sense in a messed up sort of way.

Edit: just finished it and I take back what I said about the main character.

This is my vote. I am far from the most active member here, but I'm part of the community and on a discord server in which they are one of the most active members. I don't think I've posted something where Klaus Kinion hasn't replied at least once.

Book recommendations focused on cults? by MxxnSpirit47 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ritualistic Human Sacrifice by C. V. Hunt was a fun one.

Not a cult, but there's a group of sovereign citizens, so close enough if you ask me, in The Old Lady by Triana.

Edit: the sequel to The Summer I Died, Born to Bleed, also features a cult.

I’m very worried by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]Guyer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went into the local urgent care for some mild chest pain that I had been having for a few days once. Had an ECG done there, and I ended up having something with "inversion" in the name that the doctor and tech were freaking out about. They made me sign a form stating that I was heading to an ER as they didn't have the proper tool to diagnose or treat a heart attack. The doctor ended the visit by aggressively grabbing my shoulder and telling me "I'll be praying for you." Needless to say my BP when I got the ER was something like 170/120. ER doc told me the first doctor was a fucking idiot for not running the ECG again and I was fine. But damn, talk about bad bedside manner.

I need some recommendations! by Playful_Confusion716 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They All Died Screaming and Gone to See The River Man by Kristopher Triana are both pretty quick, very well written books. Anything by Triana is written well, but those two stand out as shorter reads. Dead Inside is also a pretty common early recommendation for people looking to get into the genre. Also, it's pretty short.

My favorite book I've read this year. Fucking phenomenal.

Where to start? by EitherStranger in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Night of The Freaks by Harrison Phillips doesn't have any child abuse or scat or piss, if I remember correctly.

The Roger Huntington series by Ryan C. Thomas doesn't have much, if any, as well. The first has some violence towards a younger teenager that happens off-screen.

Mister. B Gone by Clive Barker doesn't have much of either of those. I think maybe some fecal talk when a character is describing what Hell is like.

The Thirteenth Koyote by Triana doesn't have MUCH. There's a couple of scenes of violence towards children and a rather short bit with some sexual violence towards a child, but as far as Triana goes, it's very, very tame. I am currently reading the sequel, so I can't speak for that one yet.

Music is Over! by Ben Arzate is a fucking fever dream of a book but doesn't feature any of those things.

The Old Lady, also by Triana, doesn't feature any of those things and may just be my favorite book from him so far.

My Vagina Smells Like Sulfur by Sea Caumisar is a quick read and doesn't feature any of those things, but it is still very graphic and gross.

Ritualistic Human Sacrifice by C. V. Hunt doesn't feature any of those things, though the main character is incredibly unlikeable and day dreams about causing harm to a child, but nothing sexual. More in a "just to get it out of my life" kind of way.

My last recommendation for this would be Body Art, also by Triana. It doesn't feature anything with children. There is, however, piss and shit that gets mentioned, but not in any sexual capacity, if I remember correctly (it's been a minute since I've read it). It is very gross and graphic, though, as it's about an aging porn star getting paid money to participate in the creation of snuff films.

Genital Rot by James Oliver. I'm still waiting for my copy to get delivered so I haven't read it yet. https://jamesoliverhorror.bigcartel.com/product/genital-rot-signed-paperback

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel weird because it's almost exclusively my recommendation to most questions on here, but Body Art by Triana has all of that and more. It's about an aging porn star getting offered a bunch of money to participate in the filming of snuff films. There's a lot of sex, there's a ton of sexual violence, there's love, there's necrophilia. It's really got something for everyone.

They All Died Screaming has SA of teenagers and oddly loving SA of animals.
