Blessed Are The Geek

Pop culture musings from a twentysomething geek.

Hi, I'm Brandon. I have 28 years of geek experience. Yes, I wear bowties. Bowties are cool. I consider myself a pretty well-rounded geek but my areas of specialty include comics, Superman, Star Wars, movies, Tolkien, The Simpsons, comedy, and more. Apologies in advance.

  • This old 20/20 video showcases the 80s “satanic panic” that led people to fear heavy metal, Dungeons & Dragons, Stephen King, and horror movies. Listen to the parents and reporters freak out over the dangers of VHS (!) and cartoonish gore. It’s fun to mock them and how silly it all seems, but this is the kind of stuff that did a lot of damage to some people’s lives, such as the West Memphis Three.
