This film is beautiful and amazing AND UNDISTRIBUTED in the US as yet, so this weekend may be your only chance to see it on the big screen. www.cinemavillage.com/Now-Playing/...

Of course this was my first thought. 👋 @fangoria.bsky.social!

“I would take seven of them and remake Seven Samurai,” he said. “Seven Samurai with the Knicks. OG would be the guy with the bow and arrow. Brunson, you could see would lead the guys when they were outnumbered. Josh Hart would be the crazy Toshiro Mifune character. Now that, that I can see.” 😂

Mamdani's speech at the Knicks parade was easily the best I've ever heard at an event of that sort. I posted the whole thing on YouTube for your viewing pleasure. Highly recommended.

Mamdani: "Solidarity with a government that is committing genocide is a very different thing than a question of solidarity with people of a specific faith. I'm proud to be a mayor of the city with the largest Jewish population in this country."

Be honest: How many of you realized the guy in the red shirt is, in fact, a young Antonio Banderas?

Honored to have lent a hand as co-producer of this episode!

Hey author friends. I'm seeking an established literary agent for a non-fiction book I've spent the past two years on. Been tooling around on Publishers Marketplace for some time, but thought I'd open it up to friends, as well. Any advice, opinions, or insight would be very welcome!

Paramount calls real people’s experiences of past mergers and a lived understanding of how our business works “fear-mongering”. What it actually is? Reality. Nobody knows better than those of us who have been doing it for our lifetimes and livelihoods. Corporate lawyers lie and spin #blockthemerger

We are devastated to learn of the passing of Anthony Head, endeared to fans around the world for his role as Rupert Giles on BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER the series. We send out deepest condolences to his friends, fans, and family.

YES, FINALLY! Joko Anwar’s IMPETIGORE and his two SATAN’S SLAVES movies are among the best and scariest horror films of the last decade, and not enough people have seen them — or even heard of them!

“The filmmakers who will matter in the long run […] are not the ones with the most followers. They are the ones using whatever platform is available to them to tell stories that nobody else is telling, in a language they developed themselves.” Great read. www.jeffrauseo.com/p/obsession-...

Maybe my favorite horror movie ending?

They’re turning the entire federal internet apparatus into a galaxy of phishing sites that are controlled by the president and do not adhere to any federal privacy or disclosure rules.

PSA: Strange Days is streaming on Hulu 🚨🚨🚨

Recommended! I had a chance to catch a live reading of this a while back and it was a blast.

they’re shooting crowd control munitions at crowds that include multiple members of congress, the governor, and a sitting united states senator. they fired pepper balls at the senator. they cannot and will not be reigned in by democracy, whatever’s left of it.

This warms my cold, dark horror heart — and not just because of a very kind personal shoutout from @sharai.bsky.social. The Shudder team when I was there felt like we had a mission, and it’s so lovely to hear that others felt it too.

Star Trek: A New Hope

This is fun.

With the end of THE BOYS, I'm reminded that too many folks slept on HBO Max's THE FRANCHISE, a gloriously dark satire set in the superhero entertainment complex trenches, in the vein of THE STUDIO and WONDER MAN. play.hbomax.com/show/c657b31...

Wrote about the apparent end of Neil Gaiman's TV empire, something that I (along with a lot of other people, I'm sure) have a lot of complicated feelings about! consequence.net/2026/05/neil...

Of course faux progressive Dan Goldman is going negative. I can't wait to vote for Brad Lander.

New York Friends! Come screen The Devil in Silver with me at The Twisted Spine Bookstore. Sunday, May 17. 7PM. We'll watch episode 1 then I'll be in conversation with Clay McCleod Chapman. Watching horror with a crowd in the dark. What could be more fun? www.eventbrite.com/e/special-sc...

I feel awful about having to ask for help, but we are suing our landlord for refusing to make repairs due to extensive water damage and active leaks in our apt. We have signed a lease & paid deposit on a new place, but need help with moving expenses. Any help or shares are greatly appreciated. xx

Hello. I currently have some housekeeping work lined up and I’m selling some things today but I’m about $1000 short on mortgage and bills. If you can’t donate sharing helps. This is humiliating and I really hope I get a job soon.

We must understand that the Voting Rights Act was not merely about ensuring Black Americans rights, it was about democratizing America. This ruling is not just a decimation of Black rights and Black Americans’ ability to have representation, it is a fatal blow to multiracial democracy.

Today is the LAST DAY to submit your films for consideration for our 2026 edition. LAST CALL Y'ALL filmfreeway.com/ChattanoogaF...

Wow! REFLECTIONS IN A DEAD DIAMOND might be my favorite film of 2025, so nice to see it get awards consideration.

A bit late to the (wedding) party, but I'm happy to confirm that "Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen" is an A+ horror tv series. For me, the initial "what is going on?" half was more creepy fun than the "so what do we do about it?" that followed, but it all works and they stick the landing.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who submitted a film this year. With just four days to go until our 2026 submissions period is over we’ve once again smashed the record number of films we’ve ever received that we set last year. Seeing our festival grow over these last 13 years has been so rewarding

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, DC, Marvel, Disney, Pixar, Spielberg, Cameron, Wachowskis, or Ghibli.

Saw this meme and I did it. Opening line to Neuromancer.

There are just 9 more days to submit your films for consideration in our 2026 edition of CFF! TIME WILL SOON EXPIRE.

ChatGPT is not the actor here; it’s a product. You can’t investigate ChatGPT anymore than you can investigate autocomplete. OpenAI is the responsible party here, and this NYT social post should reflect that.

I can vouch for 4 of 5, and I'll be seeking out the 5th soon.
