My learned colleague is referring to our Kiyoshi Kurosawa podcast SERPENT'S PATH. There's only three episodes, so it's a great jumping on point!

The word "woims" belongs to Sluggo. I don't make the rules.

Abel said this to me last year and I've thought about it every day since. "It’s a test, bro. Just take it as a test."

The thing about there needing to be a path of redemption for people who have been “canceled” is: there already is a path to redemption and it’s called “redeeming yourself.” The path is open! No one is blocking that! You just have to do it!

Good luck to the Artemis II crew

This goes in the "Kate Beckinsale's Daughter's Boyfriend Laid 2 Eggs" category of the world just generally going insane.

Bad Boy Batty Bat Bat Here he is being thrown into a chair.

That thing where Republicans pretend(?) not to understand how solar energy works (and that it can be stored in batteries) is so annoying.

Really surprised that there hasn't been a renewed push for 2022's AT THE GATES. Noah Wyle starring, about a rich couple "sheltering" their housekeeper and her son from immigration agents who may - or may not - be outside the house.

Lily Linneker: Any relation? Eddie: [puzzled] Well, I've got a mother. Lily Linneker: No, no no no, I meant Adolf Hitler. Eddie: Yes, that's her!

A little bit of a mystery here for an upcoming episode of BARTEL ME SOMETHING GOOD. Gregg Araki's THE LIVING END notably features Mary Woronov, and - according to IMDB and MANY reviews - also features Paul Bartel in an uncredited cameo as a character called "Twister Master".

HE IS RISEN! (From 2012's FIST OF JESUS)

If I was in the Texas Chain Saw Massacre it wouldn't have gone down like that.

If there was a TV in the backrooms it wouldn't be so bad. Maybe some wallpaper

WHAT'S THE BUZZ?! Cinema Smorgasbord SELLS OUT with our look at Norman Jewison's film adaptation of the Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice rock opera JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR. Liam's a scholar, so we go long on RELIGION, FAITH, BEEFY DISCIPLES, CATS, and SO MUCH MORE!

One of the best surprises of mzs.press's history is the runaway success of independently published film history books by Scout Tafoya (@honorszombie.bsky.social). His biggest seller is John Ford: God Made Him a Poet. We have 15 signed copies, for just $20 plus shipping. mzs.press/SIGNED-But-G...

Guys, I've got a great idea for Come From Away 2: www.bbc.com/news/article...

I'm the only one you can trust on here.

I would happily work in the scary empty office space if I got two weeks of vacation a year.

A what about what

Leave the SALO jokes to the amateurs and give this a watch

If you fall for a (terrible) April Fools joke, it's probably just best to delete the evidence - even if it ends up being popular - because otherwise it just spreads a bunch of misinformation.

This is NOT what I signed up for

I bet I could fit my whole head in big bird’s cloaca

This is the only one I'll allow.

Uh oh! I forgot to update again, so I have to post about TWO episodes. First, we checked out the AWFUL coming-of-(middle)-age comedy/drama THE LEMON SISTERS from 1989 with Diane Keaton, Carol Kane and Kathryn Grody as a trio of friends who grew up singing on the Atlantic City boardwalk. Sorta!

I constantly see extreme, ridiculous reactions to benign tweets and - without fail - there's someone in the responses going "this is what BlueSky is like all the time" No! That's Twitter! That's what Twitter is like. It's literally happening right here.

And we are live. If you have a Criterion Channel subscription you should be able to find the series that we programmed on their main page. I hope that everyone enjoys the series and finds a new favorite.

Film festivals are going to have to put some sort of filter/ban on accepting short films "made" with generative AI. I've run into a bunch doing pre-screening for Fantasia this year and they are - without exception - *awful*.

The world is better with trans folks in it. I'm sorry it's so continually - and disappointingly - been so unkind to you. Those who perpetuate anger, hatred or violence towards you and your loved ones are now and forever my enemies.

Who totaled Laura Palmer

I am loath to do this, but I need your help. My 20+ year marriage has unexpectedly imploded. There's a kid involved. Aside from Lupus, Autism and a shitty 2009 Mazda, I have nothing. Things are fairly desperate right now, so if you can help out now in any way at all I'd be really grateful ❤️

Why, Donald? So you can fly away from your feelings?

Instead of that likely terrible Eli Roth movie, you should watch MR. ICE CREAM MAN, one of the weirdest and best-looking SOV horror movies I've ever seen.
