The Lynch rarities keep coming! Here's a copy of the unaired pilot of MULHOLLAND DRIVE (1999) quality is shit but it's the only way to see this version.

Anyone here able to record live streams?I just found out that TUBI is streaming a rare film with Rita Hayworth, it starts in 4 minutes. I'm going to record it but it's the first time I do this and I fear it might fail so would be great to have a backup in case my copy is bad 🙏 pic.twitter.com/UuqrmVIxRJ

Well this is crazy, it's already a pretty epic day as we've been able to find a "lost" Rita Hayword film few hours ago now someone just let me know that they have this uber-rare movie with Gary Coleman on VHS that the whole internet was looking for it 😭😭 https://t.co/D22MazfJjB pic.twitter.com/XNMxi74O9t

You also might enjoy this ultra-condensed 17 minutes Super 8 version of ALIEN released 8 by Ken Films in 1979. This version is notable for using alternate opening titles and has a different ending. Thanks to OP tommodore64 for sharing.https://t.co/vtXcWXNTxR pic.twitter.com/EV6kgfyyt7

Was wondering why this one was getting a lot of traffic lately, now I see why, Susan Seidelman, the director of the film, shared a link for it on her Facebook page. So grateful right now. Thank you so much, Susan! 🙏🫶

Hawaii ABC affiliate KITV4 randomly went to commercial with the USC-LSU game tied 20-20 with 13 seconds remaining; the station then briefly went to Island News.

The game broadcast returned nearly four minutes later, after USC got a game-sealing INT with a 27-20 lead. 🏈📺😵‍💫 pic.twitter.com/4FaVHzANgi

And here's a bunch of absurdity from this week's college football games:

"The Time Traveler's Guide to Medieval England: A Handbook for Visitors to the Fourteenth Century" is $1.99 right now

at Amazon. The Guardian said, "After The Canterbury Tales this has to be the most entertaining book ever written about the middle ages."

"How a Leading Chain of Psychiatric Hospitals Traps Patients"

The real-life version of the next season of AMC's The Terror:

[One of America’s largest chains of psychiatric hospitals], which charges $2,200 a day for some patients, at times deploys an array of strategies to persuade insurers to cover longer stays, employees said. [The hospital chain] has exaggerated patients’ symptoms. It has tweaked medication dosages, then claimed patients needed to stay longer because of the adjustment. And it has argued that patients are not well enough to leave because they did not finish a meal.

Unless the patients or their families hire lawyers, [the hospital] often holds them until their insurance runs out.
