IT'S SHOCKING! IT'S BEYOND YOUR IMAGINATION! NEXT! B-Movie Monday welcomes MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE a film so good the director didn't work again for about 30 years! Join us this Monday from 8pm! #FC-Announce www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgEA...

Just realised that the Battle of Hastings beginning because a French jester charged the English line alone was basically a 'Le Roi' Jenkins moment. Which is a pun that works on like five levels.

How about a film that sits at the exact midpoint between Louis Malle's MY DINNER WITH ANDRE and A LOVE LETTER TO EDIE? Lovely!

One sensational Hammer double bill - Dracula: Prince of Darkness and The Plague of the Zombies were released in the UK on this day in 1966 🖤

Nice charity shop find

Happy #FrightfulFriday, everyone! #filmsky #horrorsky #moviesky

Lady Brannan and I, flying to Ireland. Got pulled at Manchester as she’d made a Battenberg cake to bring over with us. Turns out a long dense, oblong object, wrapped in tinfoil, that smells suspiciously similar to Semtex tends to arouse suspicion.

20-ish years after Sax Rohmer created her for The BBC, Harry Alan Towers & Jess Franco brought South-American female supervillain SUMARU to the big screen. And #TheFilmCrowd, you lucky, lucky people, are going to watch one of those films, tonight at 9pm GMT! THE GIRL FROM RIO! Link in post below👇

Had...& still have, after more decades than I care to think about. Still here, despite being completely knackered, & replaced by vinyl, which was replaced by CD, which was replaced by remastered collector's edition CD... ...by "replaced", I mean "I bought a newer version, and kept the older one"

I just finished the finale of #StrangerThings &, while I can see how it's divided folks, I have to say I found it very satisfying. Lots of gorgeous needle drops; The Cowboy Junkies' achingly lovely version of The Velvet's SWEET JANE being a highlight. And HEROES, (coincidentally) on Bowie's birthday

If you see this, post a vampire who isn't Dracula.

While my first post for Japan-uary XV has been delayed due to unforseen circumstances (namely the flu), here's another recycled review: cinematiccatharsis.blogspot.com/2021/01/fish... #filmsky #moviesky

Mike at @horrorgeek.bsky.social takes on the debate over Lucio Fulci's THE BEYOND; cack-handed trash, or a work of art that expresses the nightmare of cosmic horror by wilfully abandoning any logical sense of time, space, or narrative? And he's got the right answer ;) www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQYo...

"Won" this magnificent calendar at a friend's drinks the other day. Accidentally forgot to bring it home, turned up in the post

In case you missed it, Nigel Farage said Reform would vote against scrapping the two-child benefit cap because some of the families who will benefit include people who are “foreign-born”. Imagine being so racist that you would rather keep 450,000 children in poverty.

JOIN US! tomorrow at 9pm GMT, as Jess Franco goes all "Sexy Eurospy", in the company of George Sanders, Maria Rohm (well, it WAS written & produced by Harry Alan Towers) & Shirley Eaton in the role of Sax Rohmer's other Bond Villain, SUMARU!

Happy Birthday David Bowie. God I miss him. #bisexualicon

I found a 3 hr movie about Mark Harmon discovering an ocean liner that sunk 40 years earlier and finding that PEOPLE ARE ALIVE IN THERE AND LEAD BY CHRISTOPHER LEE. AND (maybe even worse) THEY'RE BRITISH! Apparently it was inspired by some people suggesting Titanic might have survivors down there.

The Flash Gordon newspaper comic strip, created by Alex Raymond, premiered on January 7, 1934.

Views on this one have been a bit sluggish, so I'm posting it again.... mostly because it's one of my favorite episodes so far. The smooth vocal stylings of @suede.bsky.social doesn't hurt either. Hope you enjoy it, and if you do... please drop a comment on it. youtu.be/BpHULyr6xC4

We all dealt with covid in different ways, an English soap writer dealt with it by making a set of microbudget (couple thousand dollar) HP Lovecraft movies with a distinctly arty bent. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mB6...

Any character played by the deeply eccentric actor, and David Cronenberg favourite, Robert A. Silverman.

Controverial opinion but starting wars is bad.

I'm back from my time away. Here's a thread of my favourite film-related videos from YouTube that I missed sharing in my absence. One from each creator, but you should totally check out all of their work. 1/lots ;)

#NextOnFC - Right; enough of "good" films. Time for a mini-season of Jess Franco! I'll start you off easy; a film with lots of atmosphere, & relatively little perviness ;) THE DIABOLICAL DR. Z! JOIN US! this Monday, the 5th of January at 8pm GMT, & start the madness! Link in replies👇 #TheFilmCrowd
