Doing a first time watch of this instead

Tried to watch HE-MAN AND SHE-RA: THE SECRET OF THE SWORD for #Junesploitation Cartoons day. Made it less than 6 minutes.

Saw I LOVE BOOSTERS, BACKROOMS, and OBSESSION all this week and haven't felt more optimistic about the future of movies since maybe 1999

Happy Pride Month

There are GREAT answers in the comments and quotes BUT HAVE YOU CONSIDERED the 1991 Richard Greico star vehicle IF LOOKS COULD KILL? Not enough of you have seen this, and it shows.

Some new @letterboxd.social favorites for Pride month

The last 13 of 26 first date anniversaries with @erikabromley.bsky.social

Saw I LOVE BOOSTERS, BACKROOMS, and OBSESSION all this week and haven't felt more optimistic about the future of movies since maybe 1999

I caught up with I LOVE BOOSTERS and I can imagine it annoying the shit out of some people, the way CRANK or DOMINO did for me, but it's very much my shit. Somehow feels to me like a spiritual successor to Pee-wee's Playhouse and Liquid Television.

Obsessed

The “When Carolco Was King” 50th anniversary Retrospective happening at The Vista the next few weeks is spectacular! ticketing.uswest.veezi.com/sessions/?si...

Hey everyone! Today DEAD & BURIED celebrates its 45th anniversary so I decided to show it some love. This is a great underappreciated horror gem of the early ‘80s that deserves all the love: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/a-new-way-of... Open to free & paid subscribers- cheers!

Hot up and comer Michelle Wilson will NOT be shining her love at America 250.

I had SO much fun putting together this list of female-led heist movies for The A.V. Club, in honor of all the female shoplifters in I Love Boosters! Truly a heist movie for every mood here

Paul Schrader wrote and directed some of the best movies ever made and he's going to be remembered for getting dumped by AI

Hey everyone! I’m spending the next few months celebrating movies that I love that also feel quintessentially summer to me First up is Jan de Bont’s SPEED, a movie I’ve been obsessed with since 1994: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/summer-of-mo... Shares/subs greatly appreciated! 🚍

I think anyone who thinks Tobe Hooper couldn't have directed Poltergeist hasn't actually seen any of the rest of Tobe Hooper's body of work other than Texas Chainsaw Massacre and even then, what are you talking about, TCSM is a perfect movie

Come on Knicks/Spurs Finals let's party like it's 1999 baybee

One of my favorites on one of my favorites

Have some new stuff going up this week so I wanted to share a few pieces I've written recently as I'm terrible at promoting my work. 1st up, a look at William Petersen & cinematic masculinity in the '80s: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/william-pete... Open to both free/paid subs!

These 10 movies are perfect, I will hear no arguments to the contrary

I may be in the minority here, but I love THE MANGLER! Fun Tobe Hooper/Stephen King collaboration with a wild ass premise but a surprisingly thoughtful commentary on the industrial and capitalistic rot behind small town Americana. Powerhouse performance by Robert Englund going full blown Mr. Burns.

My fellow Gorehounds, raise your hand if your love of horror movies have connected you with goodness and joy. 😂

I don’t want to talk about why one social media app is superior over the other; I want to talk about Charlie Sheen and KISS

I don’t understand people who never rewatch movies. I consider my first viewing of a good movie as, like, an opening bid.

THE WAIT IS OVER #junesploitation

I wish we lived in a world that recognized everyone’s right to just exist goddamnit.

Celebrating the 30th anniversary of its controversial Cannes premiere, I wrote for @letterboxd.social about the autoerotics of ruin in David Cronenberg’s CRASH—his horniest, holiest (and holey-est), and most subversively hopeful film. letterboxd.com/journal/cras...

New podcast! @patrickbromley.bsky.social and Rob praise the comic masterpiece that is PEE-WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE: www.fthismovie.com/2026/05/ftm-...

Well not sure if this works or not (technology bad), but my first novel, THOUGHT UP DEMONS, is available on Kindle! It's messy, weird, grossy, funny, messy again, and gassy. I hope you like it. a.co/d/0he4HMpQ

URBAN LEGENDS FINAL CUT > URBAN LEGEND

I’ve done an inexplicable thing.

Hey y’all - I didn’t realize this went live but there’s a new book celebrating the RE-ANIMATOR franchise coming soon & I did a lion share of interviews for it, plus the history of the 1st film & celebrated Stuart Gordon’s live theatre legacy too. Pre-order now! www.kickstarter.com/projects/pul...

Hi everyone! I’m very excited to say my next work will be released on ebook in a few days. It’s called THOUGHT UP DEMONS, and it’s your typical apocalyptic cosmic horror dealing with good, evil, and fast food dining. Stay tuned for more details! Cover art by the grandkids; no fucking AI to be found.
