More changes needed Happy for Sue-Meg to have its place name restored officially, but one still must travel on Patrick’s Point Drive to get there (“Sue-Meg Restored,” Oct. 7, 2021). Let’s do the whole job and give the road a better name, too. North Scenic Drive would be just fine. Carol Moné, Trinidad
Increased risk With the city of Eureka and Humboldt County combining to spend $1 billion over the next decade on pension debt, a $1 billion loss of funding for services, (Mailbox, Sept. 9, 2021) at what point does leadership in law enforcement and other governmental leaders acknowledge the significant negative impact pension costs (increasing current costs and especially increasing debt payments) have on their ability to provide services? We are currently in another law enforcement staffing crisis. For 2021, Eureka’s pension debt payment is $6 million. HumCo is just starting its $17 million per year increase in pension spending due

to its pension debt increasing from $220 million in 2015 to $330 million in 2021. It is very disturbing to think of where we will be at the end of this decade when Eureka’s yearly pension debt payments will be over $8 million and HumCo’s increase in yearly pension debt payments will be well over $100 million and still climbing to $170 million. Having funding for retirements absolute and guaranteed with funding for services optional and variable, with services so often diminished, is bad for everyone. Current law enforcement officers, dealing with increasing violent crime and very difficult situations are at increased risk of harm. The citizens are at increased risk of being the victim of these crimes. In a 2019 article about Eureka’s pension debt problem (Times-Standard, March 8, 2019), Mark McGuire stated: “This is just the beginning.” He was right. We are now in another law enforcement staffing crisis. Without fundamental economic change, we will all experience the plight of these law enforcement staffing crises a few more times during this decade. Thanks for listening. Patrick Cloney, Eureka

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Oct. 14, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com
professional misconduct case against two county attorneys accused of serious ethics violations for their handling of a local right-to die case is now in the hands of a California State Bar Court judge. Blair Angus, who retired in 2019 as assistant county counsel, and Deputy County Counsel Natalie Duke each faces a series of charges, including moral turpitude and failure to uphold the law. Both deny any wrongdoing. The disciplinary matter centers on the State Bar’s allegation that Angus and Duke mislead the court to move forward legal actions on behalf of Adult Protective Services and the Public Guardian’s Office against Carlotta couple Dick and Judy Magney, which enabled the agencies to temporarily seize control over Dick Magney’s medical treatment and later all aspects of the Navy veteran’s life — including his finances and where he lived — over his wife’s objections and in violation of his advanced care directive. The couple ultimately prevailed and the county of Humboldt paid $1 million in 2019 to settle a civil rights lawsuit stemming from the APS proceeding, although the county did not admit any wrongdoing by the named employees, which included Angus and Duke. Now, State Bar Court Judge Phong Wang is weighing Angus and Duke’s roles, having taken the matter under submission earlier this month following a two-week trial that included testimony from Duke and Angus, as well as Judy Magney, ethics experts and character witnesses. Missing from the witness list, however, was former county public health nurse Heather Ringwald, who was sent by APS to investigate calls made by mandated reporters about Dick Magney’s condition after he was admitted to the hospital in 2015. Much of the State Bar case — as well as Angus and Duke’s defense — can be traced back to Ringwald’s assessment of Dick Magney’s situation, which built the foundation for the APS and Public Guardian Office’s petitions, but she declined to provide information to the State Bar. By all accounts, the 73 year old was in dire condition on arrival to the hospital, suffering from a series of life-threatening
ailments — including an infected heart valve — chronic pain and desperately poor hygiene. The Magneys had been pursuing palliative care in consultation with his doctor and in keeping with Dick Magney’s advance health care directive before APS — via the county counsel’s office — intervened and had him placed back on antibiotics in a bid to keep him alive while investigating a possible neglect case against his wife of 23 years. Later, when the APS case was withdrawn, the Public Guardian’s Office stepped in and obtained temporary control over Dick Magney’s affairs for about a month before a judge denied the agency’s request to place him in a permanent conservatorship. He died five months later. The State Bar’s case alleges that Angus and Duke failed to investigate Dick Magney’s condition and also “willfully” withheld pertinent information about his situation in the APS and conservatorship petitions presented to the court, while what was filed contained “misleading” hearsay statements and lacked supporting documentation. “As shown by the evidence in this case and discussed in the State Bar’s closing brief, respondents used their position of power as county counsel to violate Dick Magney’s fundamental rights based on intentionally misleading and deficient petitions,” the State Bar argues. “And they did this to a very vulnerable person at the end of his life. Such misconduct cannot be allowed.” Angus and Duke, however, assert they not only acted with due diligence but — in the APS case — did so in what they believed to be a life-or-death situation based on the information provided to them by the agency, which they had no reason to doubt and no obligation or ability to double check. “Other than law enforcement, APS is the only agency authorized by law to investigate reports of suspected elder abuse,” attorneys for Angus and Duke state in court filings. “As attorneys in the County Counsel’s Office, neither respondent had the authority much less the duty to conduct their own investigation regarding Mr. Magney. Had they attempted to do so, it
would have constituted usurpation of APS’ statutorily conferred function.” In closing briefs, each side used an opening quote to denote their positions on the case. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions,” the State Bar’s petition begins before arguing that Angus and Duke failed to take a number of crucial steps before aiding the APS in wresting control over Dick Magney’s care away from Judy Magney based on the “misguided belief that they were trying to protect him from his abusive wife.” “Under the guise of protecting Mr. Magney, respondents filed intentionally deficient and misleading pleadings before the Probate Court to obtain temporary orders to medically treat Mr. Magney, in flagrant violation of Mr. Magney’s fundamental rights,” the brief states. In addition, the State Bar alleges, when presented with evidence that “their initial assumptions were incorrect — and their client deliberately concealed information from them — they did not take any action to remedy their misconduct, but instead, doubled down, compounding the misconduct.” Angus and Duke’s brief, meanwhile,
starts with the quote, “A person cannot be undead; there are no do-overs if you get it wrong,” in presenting arguments that the county counsels “acted in a manner consistent with the very highest standards of the legal profession.” The brief also asserts that the county attorneys acted on what they knew at the time and their belief that Dick Magney’s life and well-being were on the line. “The (State Bar) failed to prove by any standard, let alone by clear and convincing evidence, that Ms. Duke or Ms. Angus failed to perform with competency, (filed) the petitions without reasonable cause, sought to mislead (a) judge, or acted with moral turpitude, dishonesty or corruption,” the brief states. Angus and Duke are also asking Wang not just to exonerate them but also to dismiss the case entirely, stating they have evidence to clear their names but are legally barred from providing it to the court due to attorney-client privilege and other confidentiality requirements. That evidence includes more than 60 emails exchanged between the county counsels, APS and the Public Guardian’s Office, which Angus and Duke say would show what they knew and when they
knew it, but which the board of supervisors has declined to waive its secrecy rights over and allow to be seen in the case. Instead, the motion states, Angus and Duke have been left “to defend themselves with one hand tied behind their backs.” “Respondents are facing disciplinary charges which threaten their reputations, their unblemished careers and their ability to practice their chosen profession,” the motion states. “They have a constitutional right to put on a full and complete defense to the (State Bar’s) charges. The court should require nothing less.” Wang denied a similar motion made by Angus before the trial began. In a previous interview with the Journal, David Levine, a professor at University of California Hastings College of the Law, said there’s nothing to preclude the county — the ultimate holder of any attorney-client privilege in its county counsel’s office — from waiving its rights. “We’re not reviewing the conduct of the entity of the county,” he said. “It’s a narrowly focused proceeding on whether these attorneys violated their professional obligation as licensed attorneys for the
state of California.” But the county is footing the bill for Angus and Duke’s defense, which, combined with seeking legal advice on the State Bar matter, is nearing the $600,000 mark. With the exception of Fourth District Supervisor Virginia Bass, who cited the confidentiality of closed session in declining to comment, none of the other supervisors responded to Journal inquiries about the county’s decision not to release Duke and Angus from the restrictions of attorney-client privilege or the board’s reasoning for using taxpayer money in a situation where the county itself is not liable. Not all of the current members were seated when some of these decisions took place. The State Bar is seeking a 90-day suspension of Angus and Duke’s law licenses, with a one-year stayed suspension and one-year probation. Wang has until January to render her decision. l Kimberly Wear (she/her) is the Journal’s digital editor. Reach her at 442-1400, extension 323, or kim@ northcoastjournal,com.

he 35-year-old Eureka man fatally shot by a California Highway Patrol officer last month on Mad River Road fired at least one round at officers before the officer returned fire, video of the incident released Oct. 8 shows. Having followed Charles David Chivrell, who had a pistol holstered on his hip and a briefcase in hand, for approximately 1 mile, during which he repeatedly refused to comply with their directives, police formulated a plan to shoot him with non-lethal pepper balls — small rubber capsules filled with a chemical irritant similar to pepper spray. Footage from body-worn and patrol car cameras shows an Arcata police officer get out of a patrol vehicle about 100 feet from Chivrell and open fire on Chivrell with the pepper balls as he walked away. After being hit with the first of six or seven balls, Chivrell can be seen pulling his pistol as he begins to run away. Moments later he can be seen turning and firing his handgun at officers just before he is shot with a single bullet fired from CHP officer Michael Griffin’s rifle and falls to the road. The footage released Oct. 8 by the Arcata Police Department is edited into what’s called a “critical incident video” that offers a nine-and-a-half-minute narrative of the fatal interaction. It walks viewers step-by-step through the incident, from why officers were called to the scene on Sept. 9 to Griffin shooting Chivrell. The Journal has California Public Records Act requests pending with both APD and CHP seeking full, unedited video and audio recordings from the incident. APD has indicated it expects to release the footage it has this week. CHP, meanwhile, responded Oct. 11, saying releasing its video would compromise the multi-agency investigation into the shooting, though it failed to specify why, as is required by law. Under Assembly Bill 748, which went into effect in July of 2019, law enforcement agencies, with limited exceptions, are required to release video footage of

shootings and other use-of-force incidents that cause “great bodily harm” to a suspect within 45 days of the incident and as soon as doing so will not jeopardize investigations into the incident. The Journal will challenge the CHP’s decision to withhold the video. Officers from both CHP and APD responded to the rural section of the Arcata Bottoms just before 11 a.m. on Sept. 9 to a report of a man walking with a gun. A CHP officer was first to locate Chivrell and contacted him on Mad River Road. Footage of the initial interaction shows the officer pulling up behind Chivrell and using the loudspeaker on his patrol vehicle to ask him to stop. Chivrell initially keeps walking but then stops when the officer tells him, “Stop walking and drop what’s in your hands. Drop what’s in your hands and put your hands up.” Chivrell seemed to comply initially, putting down the briefcase and raising his hands but when the officer asked him to walk toward the patrol vehicle, he didn’t and instead responded angrily. “Motherfucker, it’s my right to bear arms. Go ahead and shoot me,” he can be heard yelling. “I’m not going to shoot you. You keep your —,” the officer started to respond, stopping when Chivrell dropped his hands, picked up the briefcase and starts again walking down the road, away from the officers. “Stop walking,” the officer shouted after him. The video then notes officers followed Chivrell for more than 15 minutes and a mile as he walked down Miller Lane and turned right onto Mad River Road, with officers stopping to speak with him “several times.” The next clip of footage in the video captures audio of one of the exchanges between Chivrell and officers. “Put the briefcase down. Hey, you know we have procedures, right?” a CHP officer says. “Yeah. You know that I have my rights,” Chivrell responds.
“I understand that and I am not here to violate your rights,” the officer replies. “What are you here to do?” Chivrell asks. “I just want to see your hands. Right here like this,” the officer says. “Dude it’s … go ahead, you can’t shoot your guns at me anyway you fucking idiot,” Chivrell responds. “I want your hands like this. Let’s just talk,” the officer says. “How about like this?” Chivrell asks. “Where are you headed?” the officer asks. “I just told you, dude. I’m going to fucking McKinleyville,” Chivrell says. “Where in McKinleyville?” the officer asks. “I’m probably going to go up there to the only motel and run out some fucking Mexicans that are running the show and spending all the money,” Chivrell says, his voice trailing off at the end. “Hey, hey, don’t walk away man,” the officer says. “We just want to talk,” another officer chimes in. “Hey, go back to Mexico. You don’t have papers here,” Chivrell responds They’re silent for a moment and the footage catches the cops looking at one another. “Well, we’ll keep following him, I guess,” one of the CHP officers says before asking one of APD’s officers if they’ve called out for the SWAT team. He answers that he hasn’t but a sergeant is en route to the scene. The next clip shows the CHP officer again calling out to Chivrell over the loudspeaker, urging him again to stop and talk to them. “Hey, you’ve got the right to bear arms. I agree, OK?” the officers says. “You don’t have the right to talk to me,” Chivrell responds. “I do right now. In the state of California, I do. That’s the problem,” the officer answers. While the officer does not explain what he means, carrying a handgun — openly or concealed — in a public street is illegal in California under Penal Code 26350,

devices.” If officers discussed whether to do that with Chivrell it is not captured in the released video clips. In the footage, you can see the officer train the weapon on Chivrell and begin to fire. After several of the nonlethal rounds can be heard discharging, a fellow officer can be heard saying, “Did he draw? He drew,” before a gunshot rings out followed immediately by a rifle shot. Footage of the same moments from a patrol car camera shows Chivrell appear surprised when hit by the first pepper ball — reacting almost as if he’d been stung by a bee. When the second one hits him, he looks back and takes off running at an angle away from the officers and from the right side of the street to the left. When he crosses the middle of the road, he can be seen turning back toward the officers and pointing the handgun at them. “Hey, drop your —“ an officer shouts, interrupted by the gunshots, before Chivrell falls to the ground. Chivrell was handcuffed at the scene and officers performed CPR until paramedics arrived. He was pronounced dead upon arrival at Mad River Community Hospital. The shooting remains under investigation by the county’s multi-agency Critical Incident Response Team, with the Humboldt County Sheriff ’s Office and the District Attorney’s Office jointly leading the investigation. Watch the full “Critical Incident” video from the Arcata Police Department at www.northcoastjournal.com.

meaning the officers had probable cause to detain and speak with Chivrell. “Hey, can we just cooperate?” the officer asks “Just shoot me,” Chivrell responds. “No, I don’t’ want to shoot you,” the officer says. “I don’t want to shoot you, man … Hey, let’s talk about this for a second,” the officer says. “I’m going to McKinelyville,” Chivrell answers. “Meet me there.” “That ain’t going to happen, man,” the officer says. As he’s walking down the road away from officers, Chivrell can be heard telling them his name but the officer doesn’t quite catch it, repeating it as “Gerald Seville.” The next clip comes as Chivrell approaches a curve in Mad River Road that is lined with several farm houses, and captures one of the CHP officers noting the change in surroundings. The video notes that at this point Chivrell has touched his holstered pistol at times (though none of the footage released shows that) but has not drawn the weapon at any point. “We know he’s armed,” the officer says to a fellow officer in the patrol car. We know he’s non-compliant. We know he’s pretty unpredictable. So, we’ve got to worry about other people here … not just us.” “As long as that gun stays in the holster…” the officer continues without finishing the sentence. The next clip shows the Arcata police officer opening fire with the pepper ball gun. Through the officer’s body-worn camera footage, you can see the patrol car pull up about 100 feet behind Chivrell, at which point the officer exits the passenger-side door of the car, aims and fires without warning. APD policy states, “When reasonable, a verbal warning and opportunity to comply should precede the use of these

hen President Joe Biden nominated me to be the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, I felt the profound importance of what that moment meant for Indigenous peoples in our country. I knew then, as I still feel now, that we’re at the beginning of a new era where Indigenous knowledge in our work to combat systemic inequities and craft policies to ensure fairness and a bright future for everyone is valued and prioritized. Representation matters. When people whose communities have long been underrepresented and oppressed are at the decision-making table, we can develop solutions that benefit all of us. I’m proud to be part of an administration that recognizes and trusts that my life experiences can inform policy-making in an effort to correct the mistakes of the past and help to create a future our ancestors would be proud of. With humility and gratitude, part of my role at the department is to be a megaphone for tribal issues and bring Indigenous representation to the highest levels of government. Native Americans, Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiians have pushed for this kind of representation for hundreds of years. There is much work ahead. During my time in Congress and in response to what I heard from Indian Country, I made the missing and murdered Indigenous people’s crisis a priority and passed the Not Invisible Act and Savanna’s Act. Now, with the formation of a new Missing and Murdered Unit and the launch of the Not Invisible Act Commission, the Interior Department is leading the way to implement these landmark laws. Working with the Department of Justice, we are ensuring that resources across the federal government bring justice to our families. I am a daughter, a mother, a sister and an “auntie.” I understand what loss of a loved one to this kind of violence would mean. As we continue to work on the crises that face Indian Country, one priority is to make sure the federal government recognizes that the long history of forced assimilation has contributed to the trauma and

Supes Pass Testing Requirement for County Employees
T
he Humboldt County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to move forward with a policy requiring all county employees who are unvaccinated for COVID-19 to undergo weekly testing for the virus. After hours of discussion and public comment, the board stopped short of passing a vaccine mandate for county employees and instead directed staff to come back with a policy to implement a testing regiment for those county employees who don’t have proof of vaccination. County staff presented four policy options for the board Tuesday: remaining status quo, following state and federal mandates; requiring weekly testing for unvaccinated staff; requiring vaccinations with religious and medical exemptions; and requiring that all new hires be vaccinated. Eighteen months into a pandemic that has now killed more than 714,000 Americans, including 106 Humboldt County residents, a majority of the more than two hours of public comment taken on the agenda item was decidedly against the idea of a vaccine mandate for county employees, much of it rife with misinformation about the science of COVID-19, vaccinations and the law. “We know you are being paid to push this agenda,” charged one commenter, intoning baselessly that county supervisors and health officials are somehow in the pockets of pharmaceutical companies and profiting off the pandemic. At least two county employees also spoke in favor of a vaccine mandate, saying they felt it would help protect them, vulnerable loved ones and the community from infection and critical illness. When the matter returned to the board, it appeared Third District Supervisor Mike Wilson and Fifth District Supervisor Steve Madrone were supportive of the idea of mandating vaccinations for all employees, but it was clear First District Supervisor Rex Bohn and Second District Supervisor Michelle Bushnell were not on board.

Bohn said he “firmly” believes in the vaccine but wasn’t comfortable with a blanket mandate that didn’t include some kind of testing option for employees. Bushnell, meanwhile, asked repeatedly why only unvaccinated employees should face a testing requirement if breakthrough infections of fully vaccinated people are known to occur. Health Officer Ian Hoffman said the California Department of Public Health and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control currently don’t recommend surveillance testing of fully vaccinated individuals, as studies have shown them to be less infectious for shorter periods of time than their unvaccinated counterparts, while supply chain issues still limit the availability of testing supplies. Bushnell at one point said she wouldn’t vote for anything but continuing the status quo, saying she doesn’t believe only testing the unvaccinated is an effective measure to prevent disease spread in county buildings — despite studies showing unvaccinated people infected with the virus are generally more contagious than their vaccinated counterparts — and that she was uncomfortable with mandating employees get a vaccine that could cause an adverse reaction. “I don’t want that on my shoulders,” she said. After hours of debate that was often circuitous or delved into the weeds of how staff would implement the board’s ultimate policy direction, Madrone made a motion to require vaccines for all staff, with limited exemptions for employees with religious or medical reasons for not getting vaccinated being required to test weekly. The motion was later modified to simply require weekly testing for all employees who are not vaccinated. Bushnell objected, saying she still thinks the county “should test everyone” but ultimately joined the rest of the board in voting to direct staff to draft the new policy, which is slated to come back before the board for final approval in the coming weeks. After the vote, Wilson asked the board to revisit the option of requiring all new hires to be fully vaccinated. Sheriff William Honsal then addressed the

board, echoing comments he’d made earlier in the meeting, noting that his short-handed department has been approached by officers in other jurisdictions that have passed vaccine mandates about job openings. “Whether it’s a doctor’s recommendation or they already had COVID, they do not want to be vaccinated and are required to under their current employers,” Honsal said, adding that requiring vaccination for new hires would diminish his pool of candidates. “I just don’t want a vaccine mandate for new hires to prevent someone from wanting to come to work for the county of Humboldt.” Fourth District Supervisor Virginia Bass then raised concerns about the lack of a vaccine mandate for county employees becoming a “recruitment strategy,” but said she would want to “do more research” before officially weighing in on a potential mandate for new hires. Bushnell then reiterated her opposition to any kind of vaccinate mandate, saying that “misinformation or not … people have a right to what they put in their bodies.” Madrone then indicated that he wants to “treat all employees the same” and wouldn’t support a vaccine requirement for new hires if one wasn’t in place for all county employees, effectively ending the
discussion. The County Administrative Office and Human Resources will now meet with county employee unions and Public Health before coming back to the board with a recommendation on how to implement a testing program for all unvaccinated employees. The board’s vote came exactly a week after the Eureka City Council unanimously went a different route, voting to require all employees without a vetted religious or medical exemption to get fully vaccinated for COVID-19 by Nov. 23. The staff recommendation in favor of the policy was put forward by the city’s Human Resources Department and was supported by the city’s employee unions, according to a staff report. Councilmember Kim Bergel indicated she was conflicted by the proposed mandate but ultimately voted in favor of it, saying the pandemic has created a reality where community needs outweigh individual concerns. “This isn’t about individual people anymore,” she said. “This is about a community as a whole working together.” — Thadeus Greenson Posted 10.12.21 Read the full story online.

Moderne Beauty Restoring the Eureka Theater to its former glory By Gabrielle Gopinath newsroom@northcoastjournal.com
L
iving inside a movie theater is a fantasy many cinephiles have surely entertained, but few have indulged. George M. Mann, builder and original proprietor of the Eureka Theater, was one of the few. Mann worked from the 1920s through the 1940s to build a chain of movie theaters that would eventually span from Klamath Falls to Vacaville. The Eureka Theater, largest and grandest of the houses he built, was also — unbeknownst to most — the site Mann chose for his private residence. Thanks to the efforts of the Eureka Concert and Film Center, the theater building has been undergoing a comprehensive restoration. On the eve of its fall 2021 reopening, I joined a small group to tour its grandly designed public rooms and equally luxurious private ones. I was hoping to learn what motivated Mann, this regional theater mogul, to situate a jewel box of a private apartment just steps from the popcorn-scented lobby. The Eureka Theater closed its doors to first-run films in 1996 but changes to the 1939 decor have been blessedly few. Ascending to the mezzanine today is still to enter a space that makes you catch your breath. The lobby is a swelling, graciously proportioned vault defined by swooping contours, with rosy light radiating behind delicately tinted panels of inset glass. Curving staircases embrace the lobby on both sides, ushering suavely in the direction of the 40-foot screen with its gilded flanking panels. Visually, there’s so much going on that no visitor is likely to notice

an unmarked door positioned unobtrusively toward the rear of the space. Opening that door, Eureka Concert and Film Center board member Gregg Foster beckoned guests into the inner sanctum, a foyer leading to Mann’s seven-room, 2,000-square-foot private apartment. He pointed out the amenities: one bath, crown moldings, round mirrors, built-in storage, an oval dining room with recessed lighting, a sunroom with a view of Humboldt Bay and a picture window opening onto the backside of the theater’s marquee ornament, shaped to suggest the skyline of a Futurist metropolis. (From street level, it looks a lot like the Emerald City as rendered in Victor Fleming’s film adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, which opened the same year.) “Mann was from back East; he originally came out to California around the time of World War I,” Chuck Petty, vice president of the Eureka Concert and Film Center, explained. Eureka native Petty’s long-term involvement with the restoration effort is motivated not only by memories of taking in first-run movies at the Eureka as a child, but also by his passion for historic preservation and a generalized “interest in keeping old buildings going.” He has compiled an in-depth repository of information on all things theater-related, including the builder’s biography. By the 1930s, Petty said, “Mann had recently been married for the third or fourth time. His son Richard, who would later inherit the business, was working with him at that point.” Mann spent long hours on

municate the idea of speed. Most were public structures with a transportation connection: ocean liners, airport terminals, roadside cafes, and bus and train stations. When deployed in movie theaters, the same architectural stylings hinted not so much at travel velocity but at speed of a different order: 24 frames per second, the threshold of critical flicker fusion, the point at which still images appear to move. Surely this has altered 20th century lives as much as any other accelerant. David, born in Massachusetts to Armenian immigrants in 1905, did as much as anyone to bring modern design to rural Northern California. As construction manager for Redwood Theaters from 1935 to 1943 (he never became a licensed architect), his modernist inclinations paralleled the fact that his immediate family had suffered a very modern experience of forced dislocation and exile. His parents had come to the United States in 1890 from what is now eastern Turkey to escape genocide; the family moved west to California by 1920. David trained in the
Los Angeles firm of theater architect S. Charles Lee and worked in the Culver City art department of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer before going to work for Redwood Theatres. His picture palaces looked like they were built for speed — none more so than the Eureka Theater. Its extravagant styling signaled va-va-vroom with horizontal streamlining, rounded corners, recessed lighting, chrome hardware and an eye-catching, city-shaped marquee. The lavish interior wowed moviegoers with appointments in a palette of nuanced hues, including chartreuse, periwinkle blue and French gray. Murals on both sides of the enormous screen reiterated the theme of technological mastery. Gilded images of horse-taming heroes echo the forms of a famous pair of colossal sculptures created by Guillaume Coustou for Louis XV’s palaces at Marly and Versailles; those, in turn, depicted a subject from classical legend, Alexander the Great mastering the horse Bucephalus. Bent on conquest, the streamlined Alexanders flanking the Eure-

ka’s screen proclaim 1930s America as heir to the European tradition and successor to earlier empires. They exude confidence in the culture’s capacity to dominate and outmatch nature, just as it had made the moving pictures talk. Indeed, expectations for this half-million dollar venture ran high before the gala opening. “Completion of the project will mark an epoch in the history of Eureka, and is expected to be followed by the greatest business expansion this community will have ever witnessed,” the Humboldt Standard trumpeted. “The appointments, beauty and comfort will be second to none in the entire state.” The 1,700-seat theater, hailed as the largest between San Francisco and Portland, Oregon, elicited raves for its state-of-the-art technology, including a 21-by-28-foot Walter White sound screen and audio equipment from RCA Victor. “Many new and modern ideas were worked into the building,” the Humboldt Standard concluded, “bringing to Eureka and Humboldt County an edifice that is truly a ‘building of the future.’”
When it opened, the Eureka offered six screenings daily. Ticket prices were 35 cents for adults and 40 cents if you wanted to sit in the loge, where you could smoke. The grand opening kicked off with a screening of “Going Places,” a musical starring Dick Powell, Anita Louise and an uncredited Louis Armstrong, with advance publicity couched in the swinging jazz-cat lingo of 1939. “Gather around, Mr. and Mrs. Humboldt County,” advertisements urged. “Now’s the time to palpitate, ’cause you’re ‘Going Places’ with the hottest killer-dillers in the kingdom of swingdom.” The Eureka would enjoy an uninterrupted 57-year run. But like other single-screen venues of its generation, it struggled to compete in the era of the multiplex. After it closed in 1996, it was purchased by Rob and Cherie Arkley, who donated it to the newly formed Eureka Concert and Film Center in 2000. Since that time, the nonprofit has been carrying out a meticulous restoration intended to bring the building’s exterior and interior back to their original 1939 splendor, enlisting local talent, like
artist Peter Santino. Achievements to date include the installation of new fire, security, heating and lighting systems. The lobby now gleams with fresh paint in colors carefully chosen to match the uncommon originals and the mezzanine’s ceiling shines with new silver leafing. Earlier this year, the center engaged metalworker Dan McCauley to restore the structure supporting the marquee ornament, which had sustained damage in a windstorm. It’s also raising funds for rebuilding and restoring the neon “EUREKA” sign, which remains a local landmark and, in Foster’s words, “a source of pride for the community.” Future projects include a new bar built by Wallace & Hinz for the mezzanine lobby, as well as restoration of Mann’s apartment. Workers also recently addressed the termite damage in the apartment’s walls. Now, plans call for the space to be completely refurbished in period style. “We’re currently focusing all of our efforts on the apartment, hoping to make it available as a unique short-term rental,” Petty said. He’s hopeful guests will be able to sleep where Mann slept sometime in the nottoo-distant future. Meanwhile, the theater had planned on a grand reopening with House of Floyd, the San Francisco-based Pink Floyd cover band, on Oct. 30, but canceled the show. The Eureka Theater press release states, “We love [House of Floyd] and looked forward to sharing them with our community. However, we love our friends and neighbors even more than our beautiful theater. Given the state of the pandemic in Humboldt County, our small team of volunteers, after consulting the Public Health department, felt that we would not be able to ensure that everyone would be safe at this time.” As of now, the only scheduled event is a Nov. 11 fundraiser for the Humboldt County Historical Society. New ways of thinking about the movie-going experience and new approaches to its monetization will likely be essential to movie theaters’ survival. We don’t watch movies the same way we used to, our viewing habits altered by the ubiquity of devices and the immediate availability of films on demand. More and more movies go straight to streaming platforms, minimizing theater runs or skipping them altogether. All this, of course, has been exacerbated by a pandemic that’s rendered sitting in a crowded venue even less appealing. In an age that sees wage laborers moving seamlessly in a typical day from pants-optional Zoom to “Netflix and chill,” going out to the movies constitutes a big commitment. So a movie theater is and must be much more than a frame for the moving image. Now, more than ever, it’s a destination.

If movie theaters’ ongoing viability hinges on their ability to maximize the experience, picture palaces like the Eureka may enjoy an inherent advantage in the post-COVID long-run. The lavish, Instagram-able design that rendered them instantly obsolete when the miniplex came along now constitutes their allure. If you’ve grown up looking at palm-sized moving images, the impact of a close-up projected on a 40-foot screen is not to be denied. There’s a generational aspect to this cycle that bodes well for the success
of the short-term rental plan, too. If you’re a member of a generation for whom the economy has rendered home ownership in much of California out of reach, you might well revel in the opportunity to role-play theater magnate for an evening. Additionally, Mann’s apartment appeals to viewers on a more timeless level. Its builder’s reputation as a pragmatic businessman aside, there’s something inescapably whimsical about actually living at the movies that speaks to the 12

year old in all of us. Opening an unsigned door to enter a different world — a space categorically different than the one you left behind — is the stuff of children’s fantasy. Remember the Pevensie kids opening a wardrobe and finding Narnia, Willy Wonka beckoning Golden Ticket winners into his fantastical chocolate factory or Dorothy’s entrance into Oz? Entering Mann’s luxe pad through an unmarked door in the mezzanine lobby restages a child’s fantasy for an adult audience. It is easy to imagine the contemporary viewers who will be eager to pay for the privilege. Mann was undeniably onto something when it came to situating his private sanctum. What better place for indulging fantasy than a movie theater, a temple built to house 20th century aspirations in the form of flickering, larger-thanlife visions of desire? l Gabrielle Gopinath (she/her) is an art writer, critic and curator who lives in Arcata.

Cooking for the Feast
And keeping Portuguese tradition in Ferndale By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com
T
he farther back you walk into the Portuguese Hall Association, past the rows of people young and old sitting at long tables covered in red gingham cloths, the stronger the aroma of meat, onions, peppercorns and allspice gets. And there behind the divider is its source: a team of volunteer cooks and servers dishing out Portuguese sopas do Espírito Santo and slow-cooked alcatra. On Sunday, Oct. 10, after a morning Catholic mass for the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, honoring the day the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared before three children in Portugal, the Portuguese Hall Association of the Eel River Valley fed some 100 people after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. Organizers felt ready to try again with a vaccinated crew of volunteers, a spacious hall, open doors and a smaller event than the all-day Pentecost Sunday feast. But even for this lesser celebration, the cooking began the day before. “Used to be the women years and years ago,” says Stephanie Koch, the association’s chair, “but now we have men that cook the meat and the traditional sopas.” As the older generation of cooks died off, she says, a handful of men stepped up to carry on the tradition and cook the recipes that had been passed down. One of those men is 72-year-old Steve Lorenzo, a retired dairy technician who was recruited by a cousin some 25 years ago. “He said, ‘Well, you know you can’t ever quit — you sign up, you have to do it for life,’” Lorenzo recalls with a slightly wheezy laugh. “There’s always been a Lorenzo cooking, so I said, ‘Yeah.’” He’d gotten an early start, chopping vegetables for his grandmother for community feasts. “My avó used to cook … and as a kid I used to come all the time.” That’s how he learned to make the sopas do Espírito Santo, a regional cabbage soup from the Azores islands, made with bacon and bones, mint and spices, and served over staled bread. Outside that region, to which many of the Portuguese in the Eel River Valley trace their lineage, “Few people have heard of it and fewer than that have tasted it.” After hours of cooking, the bones,
bacon and spices have given the broth a tea-brown color. Once the broth is strained, they add wedges of cabbage and mint. This batch uses mint from a volunteer’s garden. “A Portuguese cook always has mint in the garden,” says Trish Lorenzo, Steve’s wife. She fishes out the limp stems of mint that have done their job and uses a small knife to cut the cores from the wedges of cabbage so the now tender leaves separate into the aromatic broth. The thick slices of French bread floating on top have soaked up the soup to near melting. Her apron, covered in blue and white hydrangeas, remains shockingly unmarred. Lorenzo, who bought land in the Azores, returns from trips there with hard-to-find ingredients, like dried pimenta doce, a powdered sweet red pepper, as well as tweaks to the recipe. “We can’t duplicate the way they cook over there,” he says, noting everything from clay pots and wood fired ovens to the meat they use alters the flavor. And not everyone agrees on the best way to cook traditional foods, which are sometimes done differently, depending on which side of the island you’re on. “They ridicule each other — ‘Oh, those guys over there, they don’t know what they’re doing,’” he says with a laugh. “The older people who want to do this, it’s about preserving the tradition. The younger people just aren’t into this, so it’s harder to get people to learn or to come.” Kevin Oliveira’s ponytail hangs out the back of a green cap and sways across his back as he moves a pot of soup to the pass-through. He started helping out in the hall’s kitchen 11 years ago. “They told me it was a lifetime sentence and I’m here and I enjoy doin’ it. Preserving our traditions.” It’s also how he learned to cook the sopas and the alcatra, which requires cooking hunks of beef broken down from a chuck roll for about eight hours in spices and wine. The final product gives easily under a spoon, fragrant and seasoned through. “Yesterday we started at 9:30 and I turned the stoves off at 7:15,” he says. On Sunday, the cooks were back at it by 8:30 a.m. with plans to clean and pack Continued on next page » northcoastjournal.com • Thursday, Oct. 14, 2021 • NORTH COAST JOURNAL

up until at least 4 p.m. “This is the small one,” he says, wiping his brow once the food is served. Today’s meal took a mere six pans of meat — about 120 pounds —instead of the 36 pans they usually cook for Pentecost Sunday, 50 days after Easter. For that, they cook all night and serve two seatings. Cooking the sopas and alcatra at home just isn’t the same, says Oliveira. “You only get this flavor cooking this amount.” After two years without a feed like this, Steve Lorenzo is happy to be back in the kitchen, though he was unsure how many people would show amid a pandemic. “Lotta people were concerned about it,” he says, “like my 90-year-old aunt won’t be coming but my 92- and 94year-old aunts are.” At the prep table, a younger pair, Steve’s nephew Matthew Lorenzo and Nicholas Fisk, lift the meat from pots of cooking liquid and cut it into chunks for serving. Matthew was not, he informs us

with a wry smile, told about the lifetime appointment before joining up. The last of the loaves of sliced Portuguese sweet bread are shuttled out to the tables to be slathered with butter and eaten with the meat and soup, followed by cups of vanilla ice cream. Steve Lorenzo is taking a break, leaning against the wood paneled wall, when a woman comes up to wish him happy birthday. He’d spent his 72nd birthday the day before hunkered over pots of bubbling soup and beef. “When you get older than dirt, it doesn’t matter,” quips Trish, earning a grin from her husband. Oliveira waves a hand toward Steve. “As long as he’s standing, he’ll be here.” ● Jennifer Fumiko Cahill (she/her) is the arts and features editor at the Journal.

FISHING THE NORTH COAST
Klamath Adult King Harvest Quota Filled By Kenny Priest
fishing@northcoastjournal.com
I
f you’re looking to harvest an adult Chinook salmon in the Klamath basin, the Trinity River is your only option as of Tuesday. On Monday, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife determined the recreational fall-run Chinook salmon catch will have met the Upper Klamath River adult fall-run Chinook salmon quota (of 208) below Iron Gate Dam for the 2021 season. This triggers the closure of the adult fall-run Chinook salmon fishery on the main stem of the Klamath River from 3,500 feet downstream of the Iron Gate Dam to the State Route 96 bridge at Weitchpec. The adult fall-run Chinook salmon fishery on the lower Klamath River, from the estuary to the State Route 96 bridge at Weitchpec closed Sept. 8. The spit fishery at the mouth of the Klamath closed Aug. 28 and will remain closed to all fishing for the rest of the year. Except within 100 yards of the mouth (spit area), the main stem of the Klamath River will remain open for the harvest of salmon (jacks) less than or equal to 23 inches. All adult Chinook salmon caught must be immediately released and reported on an angler’s report card. The daily bag limit remains two jacks per day. Both the upper and lower Trinity River sections remain open to the harvest of adult fall-run Chinook salmon. The daily bag limit on the Trinity River is two fall-run Chinook salmon, with no more than one adult greater than 23 inches. Anglers may monitor the quota status of open and closed sections of the Klamath and Trinity rivers by calling California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s fishing information hotline at (800) 564-6479.
Willow Creek weir counts
The week ending Oct. 7, a total of 587 adult kings were counted at the Willow Creek weir. The jack count for the week was 94. For the season to date, 2,833
Paradise resident Wes Palade holds an adult king salmon taken on the lower Klamath earlier in the season. Photo courtesy of Kenny Priest/Fishing the North Coast Guide Service
(adults and jacks) have been counted, including both hatchery and wild. The totals are the highest dating back to 2004. The next highest was in 2012, when a combined 2,609 adults and jacks were counted for the season.
Dungeness crab testing continues
Domoic acid testing in Dungeness crabs is roughly halfway complete on the California coast. To date, samples from Crescent City, Trinidad, Bodega Bay, Half Moon Bay/San Francisco and Monterey have all been tested at least once. Only Monterey had crabs that exceed the action level of 30 parts per million. For more information, visit www.cdph.ca.gov.
The Oceans: Eureka
The Pacific halibut bite and effort have both slowed down considerably. According to Tim Klassen of Reel Steel Sport Fishing, the lack of effort could be have something to do with the slow fishing. “There aren’t many anglers still trying and not many are looking around,” he said. “If you land on the right spot, the fishing can be good, which is pretty normal for this time of the year.” Cape Mendocino continues to provide solid rockfish action. “There’s fish to be had but we’ve had to look around a little to find a wide variety,” added Klassen. The warm tuna water is staying put at just more than 55 miles straight out. There could be a small weather window Saturday.
Shelter Cove
The salmon and rock fishing continues to be excellent at Shelter Cove. “We had salmon limits every day last week,” said Jake Mitchell of Sea Hawk Sport Fishing. “It’s been a real mixed grade with barely legals all the way up to 30 pounds. The salmon have been right at the Coast Guard buoy. The rock fishing has been excellent, as well, with limits everyday we’ve gone. We went to Gorda one day and got two halibut before coming back to cove and getting our salmon limits.”
The Rivers: Lower Klamath
Fishing has been tough on the lower Klamath as the run is winding down. There are some steelhead around, and the occasional coho. The late-run kings should be making their way into the river soon, especially if we see some rain. Boat pressure has been light. The daily bag limit is two jack Chinook 23-inches or less and two hatchery steelhead.

ow that we’ve harvested the fruits of our labor and cleaned up the garden — you have cleaned up the garden from spent plant debris and fallen apples, right? — it’s time to think ahead to what to plant. I know, I know, we’re just barely into autumn and here I am talking spring. But a little planning means you’ll not only have gorgeous flowers to look forward to, but some tasty garlic to harvest in the summer. I’m talking bulbs, folks. Bulbs of all sorts. Let’s start with the spring flowering bulbs: tulips, daffodils, freesia, ranunculus and the like. Many nurseries and big box stores have received their shipments of these beauties, so this is the time to buy them. You can also order online from quite a few vendors. When it comes to bulbs, this is one of those few areas in life where bigger really is better. The larger the bulb, the bigger the flower. I’ve seen some bulbs in the dollar stores that aren’t worth the dollar you spend. They’re the dregs from the suppliers, who save those giant bulbs for the catalogs or places like Costco. Save your dollar and get some that will actually grow a flower that doesn’t require a magnifying glass to see. Most bulbs you buy will have planting instructions on the package somewhere. It’s an especially good idea to follow the planting depth suggestion. I usually mix a little bone meal into the planting hole, as this helps feed the bulb over the winter. If you have trouble with raccoons in your area, however, you may want to skip that step, as I’ve learned raccoons will dig up the bulbs to get to the bone meal. Another pest to be aware of is the gopher, the gardener’s nemesis. They love, love, love tulips, but will leave daffodils alone. If you want to enjoy some tulips, you can either put them in pots or use some gopher wire/mesh to put down before planting the bulbs. You can put your tulips in the fridge about six weeks before planting to give them

ARIES (March 21-April 19): According to my understanding of the upcoming weeks, life will present you with unusual opportunities. I suspect you will find it reasonable and righteous to shed, dismantle, and rebel against the past. Redefining your history will be a fun and worthy project. Here are other related activities I recommend for you: 1. Forget and renounce a long-running fear that has never come true. 2. Throw away a reminder of an old experience that makes you feel bad. 3. Freshen your mood and attitude by moving around the furniture and decor in your home. 4. Write a note of atonement to a person you hurt once upon a time. 5. Give yourself a new nickname that inspires you to emancipate yourself from a pattern or habit you want to leave behind. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus poet Donte Collins’ preferred pronouns are “they” and “them.” They describe themself as Black, queer, and adopted. “A lover doesn’t discourage your growth,” they write. “A lover says, ‘I see who you are today, and I cannot wait to see who you become tomorrow.’” I hope you have people like that in your life, Taurus—lovers, friends, allies, and relatives. If there is a scarcity of such beloved companions in your life, the next eight weeks will be an excellent time to round up new ones. And if you are connected with people who delight in your progress and evolution, deepen your connection with them. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Gemini author Lisa Cron advises her fellow writers, “Avoid exclamation points! Really!! Because they’re distracting!! Almost as much as CAPITALIZING THINGS!!!” I’ll expand her counsel to apply not just to writers, but to all of you Geminis. In my astrological opinion, you’re likely to find success in the coming weeks if you’re understated, modest, and unmelodramatic. Make it your goal to create smooth, suave, savvy solutions. Be cagey and cool and crafty. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu told us that water is in one sense soft and passive, but is in another sense superb at eroding jams and obstacles that are hard and firm. There’s a magic in the way its apparent weakness overcomes what seems strong and unassailable. You are one of the zodiac’s top wielders of water’s superpower, Cancerian. And in the coming weeks, it will work for you with even more amazing grace than usual. Take full advantage of your sensitivity, your emotional intelligence, and your empathy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo author James Baldwin told us, “You read something which you thought only happened to you, and you discover that it happened 100 years ago to [Russian novelist] Fyodor Dostoyevsky. This is a great liberation for the suffering, struggling person, who always thinks that he is alone.” In that spirit, Leo, and in accordance with astrological omens, I urge you to track down people who have had pivotal experiences similar to yours, either in the distant or recent past. These days, you need the consoling companionship they can provide. Their influence could be key to liberating you from at least some of your pain. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Poet Octavio Paz described two kinds of distraction. One is “the distraction of the person who is always outside himself, lost in the trivial, senseless, turmoil of everyday life.” The other is “the distraction of the person who withdraws from the world in order to shut himself up in the secret and ever-changing land of his fantasy.” In my astrological opinion, you Virgos should specialize in the latter during the coming weeks. It’s time to reinvigorate your relationship with your deep inner sources. Go in search of the reverent joy that comes from communing with your tantalizing mysteries. Explore the riddles at the core of your destiny. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “We must never be afraid to go too far, for truth lies beyond,” declared novelist Marcel Proust. I wouldn’t
normally offer that counsel to you Libras. One of your strengths is your skill at maintaining healthy boundaries. You know how to set dynamic limits that are just right: neither too extreme nor too timid. But according to my analysis of the astrological potentials, the coming weeks will be one of those rare times when you’ll be wise to consider an alternative approach: that the most vigorous truths and liveliest energies may lie beyond where you usually go. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Author William S. Burroughs claimed his greatest strength was a “capacity to confront myself no matter how unpleasant.” But he added a caveat to his brag: Although he recognized his mistakes, he rarely made any corrections. Yikes! Dear Scorpio, I invite you to do what Burroughs couldn’t. Question yourself about how you might have gone off course, but then actually make adjustments and atonements. As you do, keep in mind these principles: 1. An apparent mistake could lead you to a key insight or revelation. 2. An obstruction to the flow may prod you to open your mind and heart to a liberating possibility. 3. A snafu might motivate you to get back to where you belong. 4. A mess could show you something important you’ve been missing. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In her novel We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Sagittarian author Shirley Jackson wrote, “Today my winged horse is coming, and I am carrying you off to the moon, and on the moon we will eat rose petals.” I wonder what you would do if you received a message like that—an invitation to wander out on fanciful or mysterious adventures. I hope you’d be receptive. I hope you wouldn’t say, “There are so such things as flying horses. It’s impossible to fly to the moon and eat rose petals.” Even if you don’t typically entertain such whimsical notions, the time is favorable to do so now. I bet you will be pleased with the unexpected grace they bring your way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn author Susan Sontag wrote about people who weren’t receptive to her intensity and intelligence. She said she always had “a feeling of being ‘too much’ for them—a creature from another planet—and I would try to scale myself down to size, so I could be apprehendable and lovable by them.” I understand the inclination to engage in such self-diminishment. We all want to be appreciated and understood. But I urge you to refrain from taming and toning yourself down too much in the coming weeks. Don’t do what Sontag did. In my astrological opinion, it’s time for you to be an extra vivid version of yourself. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I am diagnosed with not having enough insanely addictive drugs coursing through my body,” joked comedian Sarah Silverman. Judging from current cosmic rhythms, I’m inclined to draw a similar conclusion about you. It may be wise for you to dose yourself with intoxicants. JUST KIDDING! I lied. Here’s the truth: I would love for you to experience extra rapture, mystic illumination, transcendent sex, and yes, even intoxication in the coming weeks. My analysis of the astrological omens suggests these delights are more likely and desirable than usual. However, the best way to arouse them is by communing with your favorite non-drug and non-alcohol inebriants. The benefits will last longer and incur no psychological cost. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “The truth is,” writes cartoonist Bill Watterson, “most of us discover where we are headed when we arrive.” I sense this will describe your life during the next six weeks. Your long, strange journey won’t come to an end, of course. But a key chapter in that long, strange journey will climax. You will be mostly finished with lessons you have been studying for many moons. The winding road you have been following will end up someplace in particular. And sometime soon, I suspect you’ll spy a foreshadowing flash of this denouement. l

SCREENS
Slasher Culture
There’s Someone Inside Your House By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com
THERE’S SOMEONE INSIDE YOUR HOUSE. Is a slasher movie ever just a slasher movie? Probably not. Go back and watch a few of the genre’s prototypes from the ’70s and ’80s, and you’ll find — more easily with the distance afforded by time — some recurring themes and popular mores fairly leaping from their stories and conventions. In her book Men, Women and Chain Saws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film, Carol J. Clover names “the final girl,” the scrappy, tomboyish survivor who always escapes the gauntlet, even as everyone else is cut down. Clover points out the ways in which the archetype subverts and eventually upholds gender rules — all of which seems impossible to miss now but back then it was like that saying about fish not seeing the water they swim in. Netflix’s There’s Someone Inside Your House hews closer to some genre conventions than others, especially in terms of the final girl, but updates its themes to fit the times. Maybe not the pandemic, but there’s anxiety over the outing of secrets that echoes the current hysteria over “cancel culture,” and there’s some commentary on privilege. The story also revolves around characters — Black, mixed-race, non-binary, Latino and gay — who’d never have been considered when I was watching slashers at basement sleepovers. If nothing else, it’s surely a sign of the direction of mass-market entertainment. It’s clumsy in places and tries too hard with its ending, and a teen murder spree is no place for meaningful development of more than one or two characters. Truly, if you want a master class in updating the genre with a broader range of characters, watch Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy. But it’s heartening that we can have something like There’s Someone, a just OK movie with a diverse cast — a somewhat goofy slasher we’ll all probably forget when spooky season ends. There’s Someone Inside Your House opens, fittingly enough, with a Nebraska high school football player killed in
26
his home, sliced up by an intruder wearing a mask of his face in a closet plastered with photos of him beating a teammate bloody in what appears to be hazing ritual. The intruder then posthumously outs him for his misdeed, texting those same photos of the beating to the whole town at the big game. Meanwhile, hazing victim Caleb (Burkely Duffield), the one gay player on the team, is busy scoring a touchdown before a distracted crowd. Ostracized by his teammates, Caleb finds a literal seat at the table with the movie’s central clique: recently transferred Makani (Sydney Park), NASA hopeful Darby (Jesse LaTourette), disaffected rich kid Zach (Dale Whibley), sharp-tongued Alex (Asjha Cooper) and Rodrigo (Diego Josef), who pines for her. Soon enough, it’s apparent the killer on the loose is bumping off people with secrets and, what, 3D printing these masks? Makani may be holding more secrets than her friends, and little by little her relationship with the sheriff ’s outcast brother Ollie (Théodore Pellerin) and the awful business that made her leave her home in Hawaii for Nebraska. If you came for a helping of classic teen slasher tropes, the goods are here. The murders, largely committed with a long knife, spew plenty of blood: Achilles tendons are cut, throats are opened and the camera lingers just long enough so you don’t miss it. The killer dutifully slow walks after frantic victims, sending a blade blindly through wood and metal barriers while their prey dodge and shriek inside. And while it’s not built as a mystery with a trail of clues, the speculation as to who

Rediscovering the joys of in-person high school. There’s Someone Inside Your House
the stabby one is shifts here and there to keep us interested. Still, the setup about secrets goes to hell in the third act and the showiness gives way to a pointless kill or two. The movie, directed by Patrick Brice (Creep, 2014) draws as much from Heathers or Mean Girls in its humor as it does from Wes Craven in its gore, but veers toward Breakfast Club now and again in its ham-fistedness. It works so hard in the end to be kind and offer hope that the worst of us isn’t all of us. That it’s jarringly kind to the people who are supposed to be expendable might be a sign of the times, too.

aptain Brunch, the saltiest of our local old salts, agreed to take me on a sea pickle expedition. But first, he sized me up with his one good eye and said, “Aye, lad, do ye have the guts to face the treacherous sea pickle, yar?” I explained I get a little seasick but wasn’t concerned about being harmed by a bumpy, jelly-like, fibrous tube no more than 2 feet long. Even if I fell overboard, I could out-swim any sea pickle (Pyrosoma atlanticum) because they only move about 2 inches per second. Captain Brunch kicked a barrel of Champagne with his one good foot and said, “That sounds like book learnin’, lad. If ye swim away from one, there’s sure to be others lurking in the direction ye swim! They travel in vast shoals of torment!” I said, “I appreciate the maritime tradition of being obsessed with a mortal enemy amongst the ocean’s fauna, but a sea pickle isn’t exactly a leviathan that smites entire whaling crews.” “Bah! Captain Ahab was a pussy! He had but ONE mortal enemy. I have MILLIONS.” Captain Brunch swept his one good hand across the horizon to indicate the enormous armies of sea pickles that can form when environmental conditions favor them. Indeed, waters off the northwest coast of the U.S. experienced a massive and unexpected bloom of sea pickles in 2017. Scientists think this was associated with unusually warm near-shore water but that doesn’t fully explain it. Explosions of sea pickles, the captain explained, made it impossible to catch fish because “nets and hooks alike are fouled by the teeming bastards!” I said, “I first found them washed up here in 2017, and scattered ones this year and last — not enough to be hazardous. But book learning taught me that their high densities at sea could believably interfere
28
with fishing. They surely can’t cause a person bodily harm though … Did sea pickles take your leg and eye and everything?” “Nay, lad, this is cosmetic surgery. But be warned! The sea pickle will transfix ye with its fire and lure ye to Davy Jones’ locker!” He may have a point. Sea pickles are called Pyrosoma, which means “fire body” in Greek, and they produce blue-green light. Each sea pickle is actually a colony of many individual tunicate animals known as zooids, which each produce a little bioluminescence, adding up to a glowing sea surface. We sailed with a late breakfast of eggs Benedict and mimosas, while he spun yarns of fishless horror. For example, he described night visits to his cabin as sea pickles chanted, “No lox for your bagels!” For emphasis, he harpooned a Belgian waffle with his one good tooth and cocked his good ear to enjoy my shrieks. But I countered with calm facts. I said, “At night, sea pickles migrate to the surface from as deep as 2,500 feet. As they move through the water column, each tiny zooid filter feeds on plankton by pumping water through its mouth and into the tube. Water from many zooids exits the tube at the open end, which creates the jet propulsion. But they can’t rocket onto a boat.” Then I unwisely suggested the captain suffered irrational fears and should perhaps seek counseling. Shaking with rage, Captain Brunch saluted me with his one good middle finger and shouted, “I order ye to walk the plank! And after ye scrape these dishes into the sea — being careful not to get any yogurt parfait on the plank — go to the galley and wash them! There’s dish soap under the sink, yar.” l Biologist Mike Kelly (he/him) writes science-based satire as M. Sid Kelly. It’s available at Eureka Books or everywhere e-books are sold.
