Retro Trailer For The 1983 Film SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES — GeekTyrant
This week's retro trailer for for the 1983 dark fantsy film Something Wicked This Way Comes , which based on Ray Bradbury's novel of the same name. This is a movie that I loved as a kid!
Set in a small, sleepy American town, the story follows two curious boys, Will Halloway and Jim Nightshade, whose lives are turned upside down when a mysterious carnival rolls in overnight.
The carnival, led by the sinister Mr. Dark, promises to grant the townspeople their deepest desires, but at a terrifying cost. As strange and supernatural events unfold, Will's father, Charles, a weary and regretful librarian, must confront his own past and summon the courage to help the boys fight the growing evil.
Mr. Dark preys on the vulnerabilities of the townsfolk, offering illusions of youth, love, or second chances, while secretly stealing their souls. As Will, Jim, and Charles uncover the carnival's sinister truth, the story builds to a suspenseful and emotional climax, where love, sacrifice, and the power of human will stand against darkness.
With eerie visuals and poetic narration, the film delivers a great blend of horror and wonder.

Hunter Goodman homers twice as Rockies beat Marlins 6-4 to end 8-game losing streak
MIAMI (AP) — Hunter Goodman homered twice, including a go-ahead two-run shot in the fifth inning, and the Colorado Rockies beat the Miami Marlins 6-4 on Monday night to snap their fourth eight-game losing streak of the season. It was the 10th win against 50 losses for the Rockies, who had already wrapped up the worst 60-game start in the modern era (since 1901). The 1904 Washington Senators and 1932 Boston Red Sox both opened 11-49. Goodman had a two-out single in the first off Max Meyer, and Thairo Estrada followed with an RBI double to give Colorado the lead. Goodman was charged with an error in the bottom half when he dropped a throw at home plate, allowing the tying run to score. Otto Lopez added an RBI single off Germán Márquez, and a sacrifice fly by Eric Wagaman gave Miami a 3-1 lead. Jesús Sánchez's run-scoring double made it 4-1 in the second. Goodman homered in the third, and Tyler Freeman's two-out RBI single in the fourth got the Rockies within a run. Ezequiel Tovar singled leading off the fifth and Goodman followed with his ninth homer for a 5-4 advantage. Keston Hiura doubled leading off the ninth for his first hit with Colorado, and Sam Hilliard's one-out double drove in an insurance run. Márquez (2-7) allowed four runs — three earned — and nine hits in five innings. Jake Bird, Tyler Kinley and Seth Halvorsen each pitched a scoreless inning before Zach Agnos worked the ninth for his fourth save. Meyer (3-5) gave up five runs — four earned — and 10 hits in five innings. Miami has lost three of four to begin a six-game homestand. Key moment Sánchez singled leading off the ninth for Miami (23-35) before he was forced out at second on a pop fly by Agustín Ramírez that dropped in front of Freeman in right field. Agnos got Kyle Stowers to hit into a game-ending double play two pitches later. Key stat Goodman, a third-year catcher, leads Colorado in home runs and RBIs (34). Up next Marlins RHP Sandy Alcantara (2-7, 8.47 ERA) starts the middle game of the series Tuesday. The Rockies hadn't announced a scheduled starter. ___ AP MLB:

Texas Tech ends Oklahoma's 4-year run as Women's College World Series champ with walk-off 3-2 win
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma's run of four straight Women's College World Series titles ended when Lauren Allred's walk-off sacrifice fly gave Texas Tech a 3-2 victory in the semifinals on Monday night. Coach Patty Gasso's Sooners (52-9) were down to their last strike in the top of the seventh inning when Abigale Dayton summoned a bit of magic, hitting a tying two-run homer against Red Raiders ace NiJaree Canady. It was just her third longball of the season. But the Red Raiders (53-12) responded quickly in the bottom half. Mihyia Davis singled with one out and Hailey Toney followed with a double. Allred hit a flyball to right field and Sydney Barker's throw to the plate was wide, allowing Davis to score easily. Texas Tech, in its first trip to the WCWS, will play Texas in the best-of-three championship series starting Wednesday. The Longhorns reached the finals for the third time in the past four years. They lost to Oklahoma in 2022 and 2024. Oklahoma had won nine straight elimination games. Canady lost the shutout but got the win. She is the two-time reigning National Fastpitch Coaches Association Pitcher of the Year and was the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year last season. Formerly with Stanford, Canady signed a name, image and likeness deal worth more than $1 million to go to Texas Tech. ___ AP sports:

Oregon State pounds 4 homers, turn 5 double plays, top USC 9-0 to win Corvallis Regional
CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Gavin Turley and Trent Caraway had two of Oregon State's four home runs and the Beavers captured the Corvallis Reginal with a 9-0 win over USC on Monday afternoon. After dropping their regional opener to Saint Mary's on Friday, the Beavers won four straight, outscoring opponents 47-6, including a 14-1 win over the Trojans on Sunday night. This time three pitchers allowed three hits. Now eighth-seeded Oregon State (45-13-1) plays host to ninth-seeded Florida State in a super regional next weekend. Turley and Caraway also homered in the previous win over USC. Turley hit three homers in the regional and upped his OSU career postseason home run record to seven. Caraway's five home runs in the reginal are a record for a single postseason. James DeCremer (3-0) allowed two hits and two walks with six strikeouts over five innings to set the tone for the Beavers. The defense turned five double plays before a record Goss Stadium crowd of 4,383. The last time Oregon State had a postseason shutout was 2018 when the Beavers beat Arkansas 5-0 to win the national championship. Turley also had an RBI single in the first inning and his home in the third came after Aiva Arquette drilled a two-run homer. Jacob Krieg, the No. 9 hitter, had a three-run blast in the eighth inning to wrap it up. It was the Beavers' 15th home run of the regional. Caden Hunter (6-6), the first of five pitchers for USC (37-23) allowed five runs on four hits in three innings. ___ AP college sports:
