📼 NEW EPISODE! 📼 From writer/directors @peterhallhuman.bsky.social and @paulgandersman.bsky.social, our review of the latest Rustic Films release MAN FINDS TAPE (2025) is now available. The movie is available on all major vod platforms, and our new episode is out wherever you get your pods!

I love indie horror and discovering new filmmakers is always exciting. I really love MAN FINDS TAPE and truly enjoyed my conversation with writers/directors Peter Hall and Paul Gandersman. bloody-disgusting.com/interviews/3...

Man Finds Tape is a fun, inventive exercise in low budget first person POV/faux documentary narrative. It demonstrates the filmmakers have a strong grasp on using our current media environment to craft a story, as well as how to use genre to create surprises. Free. www.patreon.com/posts/man-fi...

Phenomenal year. Lifelong dream came true. Eternally thankful to all involved that brought it to life. And now on to 2026 where we will start up on the next film (and many more things).

Man, this was a really cool one to listen to. We made this movie for weirdos like us, so seeing it connect with other weirdos (complimentary) is exciting.

On our new holiday episode, we're watching the Robot Santa slasher Christmas Bloody Christmas!

In the spirit of making my needs known, I’m heading for over draft again. All of my funds will go to paying rent, leaving me with nothing to pay bills or buy groceries in January, which is my birth month (yay). Any help would be much appreciated. ko-fi.com/soniasulaima...

I would really like to make a nice Christmas meal this year, but we're dead broke. if you can help, I would greatly appreciate you. no pressure! just thought I'd try. PayPal.me/TeriClarke

I wrote a small Christmas Horror for the blog! Hope you all have a very cozy time, even when you receive a cursed object as a gift. 🖤 www.scribblezilla.ca/post/the-chr...

This time of year is fucking hard. The holidays are a fertile ground for dark thoughts. Loneliness can drown you, even when you're surrounded by people. Take care of yourself. If you feel like you're drowning in darkness, please talk to someone. Friend, family, stranger. Anyone. You deserve love.

Sometimes you work with cast or crew just once. Other times you make 5 movies with the same person. So instead of saying goodbye, on the last day of shooting, many of us say “See you on the next one.” Today, I don’t want to say goodbye, so let me just say, PJ, my friend, see you on the next one.

FYI: The SMILE franchise is expanding with a brand new prequel set in the world of modeling. Get ready to SMILE: FOR THE CAMERA as we’ve got all the gory details right here.

If you see this post a comics cover you love Any of the 90's THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD comic covers were immensely foundational to me

NEXT WEEK It's our 2025 Christmas Episode! @crobertcargill.bsky.social returns to talk BLACK PHONE 2 spoilers, and we chat about his mind-expanding take on 1980's CHRISTMAS EVIL! Episode drops 12/24 at Noon Central!

As this gets a little bit of love from RAVENOUS fans, here’s an interview I did with cinematographer Anthony B. Richmond for the film’s 25th anniversary.

Rian Johnson bringing his own copy of RAVENOUS to put onto the Criterion Collection shelf is probably the best thing that’s going to happen to me this week. youtu.be/U2plMSuOgrI

Happy to see my short story “Barbershops of the Floating City” (@uncannymagazine.bsky.social) on Jay’s annual recommendation list alongside some of my favorites from this year! Always a joy finding new favorites I might have missed otherwise too.

If anyone has $200-300 for me to do an editing project for them this week, I could use the work for a few extra expenses this month and to help feed the rescue cats. Word count within reason is considered. Dev, copy, line, proof. DM or email me! Link in bio. ☺️

And if you happen to live in Austin and want to see MFT on the big screen, the Alamo actually added a few more showings! Adding screenings of an indie horror movie?! In this economy?!?! Blows our mind. ManFindsTape.com for more info there.

And an enormous, infinite spiral of thanks to anyone who has checked out MFT. You might be surprised how few people it takes to nudge the needle on a movie like ours on VOD charts etc. The fact that anyone is paying attention to us is because of people like you clicking play and telling friends.

Gonna get mushy with a mini thread... MAN FINDS TAPE is officially Certified Fresh, so I'd like to take a sec to thank every critic (on RT or not) who took the time to give our little movie a shot. It means so, so much to everyone involved that you gave your time to consider us.

Thank you to all that came out for our MAN FIND TAPE screenings in Austin, LA, and NYC. Available now for VOD on all platforms (www.magnetreleasing.com/manfindstape/) @peterhallhuman.bsky.social @paulgandersman.bsky.social @magnetreleasing.bsky.social @crobertcargill.bsky.social

Because I couldn't stop thinking about it and wanted to make sure as many people as possible see it, I wrote a bit about @peterhallhuman.bsky.social and @paulgandersman.bsky.social's MAN FINDS TAPE over on the newsletter. matthewjacksonwrites.com/film-review-...

Oh hey, we're doing a Reddit AMA tomorrow about MAN FINDS TAPE. Ask us those Qs, get those As. www.reddit.com/r/movies/com...

Had a chance to sit down with Peter S Hall and Paul Gandersman, as well as the cast to talk to them about their really good found footage film Man Finds Tape #manfindstape thecinemen.com/2025/12/08/m...

It's John Buscema's birthday. I got to work with JB at the beginning of my career when (in a state equal parts terror and excitement) I took over CONAN from Roy Thomas. Let's just say I had a lot to learn, but it was an honor working with one of my artist heroes.
