#NewRead The Haar by David Sodergren. A nice contained simple horror yarn with a surprisingly relatable emotional angle...

30 years old - sounds like it was made yesterday... ❤️

Recently got back into this noodling Croatian jazz-funk banger...

Surprising even himself, BALMUDO somehow survives the Baron's gauntlet of improbable challenges uninjured. He returns to his now immensely popular barber shop with a restored reputation, proving that even accusations of interfering with corpses can be forgotten with the power of celebrity. (1/2)

THE #VALLEY100 IS OVER @vorsey.bsky.social @thelostbaystudio.com @sexualyoukai.bsky.social and @ostrichmonkey.bsky.social have won!

#ReWatch The Girl Chewing Gum (1976) & The Black Tower (1987) : 2 classic shorts from artist John Smith. Quirky and wryly amusing (and vaguely disturbing in the case of Tower) with great sound and film editing, do yourself a favour and spend your lunch break watching these!

#ReWatch The Last Wave (1977) - Peter Weir's follow-up to the masterpiece of Picnic At Hanging Rock. It's a much more overtly supernatural tale, grounded in the myths of indigenous Australians, with some fantastic imagery, but also some clunky storytelling. 1/2

Bringing some sunshine to your day...

I'm honoured to be taking part in the bonkers Mass-RPG experiment #VALLEY100 from @alfredvalley.bsky.social. My character: BALMUDO a barber with a fake accent, who was arrested for good-humoured graverobbing. SWEET SPOT: 15–30 LUCK: 1 ALIGNMENT: Odd STARTING LOCATION: 16 #VALLEY100

#NewWatch Act of God(1980) - fantastically quirky short documentary about the survivors of lightning strikes by Art-film Snob's favourite Peter Greenaway. Framing and editing are exceptional - makes you realise how much of a staid template modern TV docs have fallen into... youtu.be/Ruuxxdq4v4Y?...

To start with, I'll probably be using this for ruminations on culture I am currently consuming...
