GET IN MY DECK YOU BEAUTY!!!! @arrowvideo.bsky.social #PhysicalMedia #JohnCarpenter

Well, slept two hours! Woke up wide awake and antsy to get something done! 🤷 (That NEVER happens! 😂)So, I've spent the last two hours deep cleaning the house 💪while listening to the awesome movie podcast from @filmutopiapod.bsky.social. Specifically the series on 80's fantasy films! So much fun! 👏

#NowWatching Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994) Craven's meta-horror dress rehearsal sees Freddy clawing his way out of the movies and into real life, stalking Heather Langenkamp as herself, before properly cracking the code two years later with Scream. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991) The once-effective dream stalker concept goes full Looney Tunes with Freddy now offing teens with power gloves and dream parachutes before getting blown up in 3D like a cartoon villain who really should’ve quit five movies ago.

#NowWatching A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989) Freddy hitches a ride in a fetus to rekindle the family business, but what should be terrifying ends up a surreal mash of gothic set design, soap opera melodrama, and your man cracking jokes like the drunk uncle at a christening.

#NewEpisode From The Princess Bride to Willow & Erik the Viking, Film Utopia tackles the twilight of 80s fantasy. Expect arguments over what counts, Steven’s undying love for Buttercup & a nod to fantasy-adjacent oddities like Big & Mannequin. 🐉🎶 👉 tr.ee/VBiHI1O06m #PodcastAndChill

#NW A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988) Dir. Renny Harlin Freddy goes full MTV Sitcom in a nightmare circus of one-liners, only to be outmatched by Alice, the quiet girl who basically speedruns a self-confidence arc by stealing her friends’ powers. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NW A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) Dir. Chuck Russell A group of misfit teens discover their superpowered alter-egos in dreamland. Meanwhile, Nancy returns as the world’s least reassuring counsellor, while Freddy cements his career as horror’s ultimate stand-up comic.

#NW A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985) Dir. Jack Sholder Freddy ditches dreamland and basically moves into a sweaty teenager’s body like the world’s creepiest Airbnb guest. Less 'effective possession horror', more 'unintentional coming-of-age' drama. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NW A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) Dir. Wes Craven A wisecracking burn victim in a fedora with knife-fingers turns slumberland into slaughterland, forcing suburban teens to pull all-nighters harder than my clubbing years. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

Rest in peace, Mr. Robert Redford 1936-2025. A staggering acting career - including some of our favourites; Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting, and Three Days of the Condor - are left as your legacy. Not to mention, the honour of immortalisation by appropriate meme. 🫡

#nw Tron (1982) Dir. Steven Lisberger In a stellar year for cinema, Disney dropped perhaps the greatest example of "ahead of its time" ever; a dazzling neon fever dream where a programmer gets sucked into cyberspace to battle with glow-discs and light cycles. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NW Attack of the Giant Leeches (1959) Dir. Bernard L. Kowalski. A local park warden uncovers an infestation of rubber-suited bloodsuckers in a Florida swamp, turning a tale of moonshine and adultery into an eco-horror PSA about the dangers of skinny-dipping. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Alien Resurrection (1997) Dir. Jean-Pierre Jeunet A cynical studio science experiment resurrects Ripley as a part-alien action figure and straps her into a script bulging with clichés, space pirates tossed in from a different movie, and KY-drenched Xenomorphs.

#NowWatching Alien 3 (1992) Dir. David Fincher Crippled by studio meddling & rewrites, Fincher's debut kills off fan favourites offscreen, strands Ripley on a lice-ridden prison planet, and delivers a bleak, brutal chapter that’s as fascinatingly flawed as the chaos that birthed it.

#NowWatching Aliens (1986) Dir. James Cameron Cameron shows the world how a sequel’s done, taking Scott’s horror-in-space and cranking it into a war movie, where Ripley trades trauma for firepower. The OG still rules, but this is bigger, louder, and damn near perfect. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Alien (1979) Dir. Ridley Scott A routine space haul turns nightmarish when the crew picks up an unwanted passenger that uses humans as incubators, resulting in the galaxy’s nastiest unplanned pregnancy. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Prey (2022) Dir. Dan Trachtenberg Stripped of franchise bloat, this warmly welcomed, back-to-basics approach follows a determined young Comanche warrior drawn into a lean, deadly round of cat-and-mouse with the signature alien hunter in 1700s North America. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching The Predator (2018) Dir. Shane Black Shane Black shits the bed with this spectacular stain on his legacy as the OG Predator writer, in which a wisecracking squad of PTSD vets, an autistic kid, and Olivia Munn with a tranq gun stumble through an incoherent plot & misplaced 'comedy'.

#NowWatching Predators (2010) Dir. Robert Rodriguez Adrian Brody cosplays a gravel-voiced tough guy among a video game character select screen of Earth’s deadliest killers, all dropped into an alien hunting ground where “continue?” isn’t an option. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Predator 2 (1990) Dir. Stephen Hopkins Danny Glover sweats his way through a drug war while a dreadlocked alien with a skull fetish stalks the criminal underbelly of Los Angeles. Then Gary Busey shows up. As Gary Busey. Perfection. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching (again) Predator (1987) Dir. John McTiernan A mud-bathed Arnie uses Boy Scout tactics to get even in the jungle after his squad are neutralised by an intergalactic hunter with a face only a mother could love. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NewEpisode In an age of goblins, barbarians & questionable wigs, three men dare to revisit 1984–86 fantasy! From Legend to Labyrinth, Red Sonja to Highlander, Film Utopia uncovers music, magic & madness. Also: Clancy Brown impressions. 🎙️⚔️ 👉 tr.ee/VBiHI1O06m #PodcastAndChill #80sMovies #Fantasy

#NowWatching For a Few Dollars More (1965) Dir. Sergio Leone Eastwood’s icy drifter and Van Cleef’s steely colonel try to out-stare each other while hunting a psychotic bandit with a pocket-watch fetish, before reluctantly teaming up for some of the coolest gunfights ever staged in a Western.

#NowWatching Exorcist III Dir. William P. Blatty The only true sequel. Spinning heads are out, something even creepier is in; Part detective noir, part theological horror, and all capped off with one of the greatest jump scares ever filmed. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

Rest in peace, Mr. Terence Stamp. You were magnificent, sir. 1938- 2025

#NowWatching Exorcist: The Beginning (2004) Dir. Renny Harlin A high-ranking contender for the coveted 'Prequels Nobody Asked For Award, where a faith-confused, young Father Merrin fights Satan in Kenya with eary 00s CGI and piss-filter cinematography. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977) Dir. John Boorman & Rospo Pallenberg A baffling & illogical sequel with a hungover looking Richard Burton, a traumatized, tap-dancing Linda Blair, and James Earl Jones dressed as a giant locust because… reasons. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Omen III: The Final Conflict (1981) Dir. Graham Baker An now-adult Damien is pretty much Satan’s middle manager on Earth. Aka, a politician, dodging holy daggers, manipulating prophecies, and trying to stop the birth of Christ’s second coming #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Damien: Omen II (1978) Dir. Don Taylor & Mike Hodges. An adolescent Damien befriends a telepathic murder-crow before moping around military school, where every adult who tries to discipline him meets a Final Destination style death. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

Shelving unit from British Heart Foundation for £5, and it's just slightly bigger than my boutique collection 🥰 This satisfies me right in the OCD. #PhysicalMedia #Bluray #4k #Filmsky #Horrorsky #Mutantfam

#NowWatching The Omen (1976) Dir. Richard Donner A wealthy couple accidentally adopt the Antichrist; a cherubic Rottweiler enthusiast with a penchant for staring creepily, making nannies hang themselves & skewering priests. You'll lose your head watching this one. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

💀 youtube.com/watch?v=xECx...

#NowWatching Legend (1985) Dir. Ridley Scott A glitter-drenched fairytale where Tom Cruise must rescue Mia Sara from Tim Curry’s devilishly horny Lord of Darkness; a villain so spectacularly over-designed he makes the rest of the film look like a perfume ad for unicorns. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching The Exorcist (1975) Checking out William Friedkin's commentary on the Director's Extended Cut from 2000. 🎙🎧 #EveryNightIsMovieNight #MutantFam #Horror #HorrorCommunity #HorrorFan #HorrorFam #HorrorAddict #HorrorFamily #ClassicHorror #HorrorMovie #HorrorFilm

#NowWatching Wizards of the Lost Kingdom (1985) With entire scenes stolen from other movies, this shitshow is like someone emptied Roger Corman's stock footage cupboard onto a strip of celluloid. There's an evil sorcerer, naturally, discount Chewbacca & more smoke than an 80s disco.

#NowWatching Barbarian Queen (1985) Dir. Héctor Olivera. More fantasy sleeze from Argentina featuring sword-slinging warrior women on a vengeance quest with wooden performances and more tits than a maternity ward. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Ladyhawke (1985) Dir. Richard Donner He's a wolf at night. She's a hawk by day. With date night off the cards, they enlist a sparky, irritating young thief to help break the spell. All to a soundtrack that sounds like Rush got lost in the dark ages. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

Our summer quest continues! From Hawk the Slayer to Krull, join us for oiled barbarians, swords & sorcery animatronic dragons, stop-motion monsters & boobs everywhere! It must be early 80s fantasy! From 1980 to 1983 🎙️🐉⚔️ 👉 tr.ee/VBiHI1O06m #PodcastAndChill #NewEpisode #80s #FantasyMovies

#NowWatching The Dungeonmaster (1984) Dir. Charles Band Like if Tron was written by a D&D nerd; A computer dork is yanked into a magical deathmatch by an evil wizard and made to fight through 7 bizarre fantasy levels, including a stop-motion demon & a cameo by W.A.S.P. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

Robocop x2 for the first 2 showings, then finish the day with Lost Boys at 7.05.

Well, colour me shocked! 🫨

This is entirely correct. #PhysicalMedia forever 💿📀📼

#NowWatching Red Sonja (1985) Dir. Richard Fleischer A lava haired, vengeance-driven warrior in a fetching chainmail bikini teams up with Conan's knockoff cousin, Kalidor, to stop a glowing green murder-lamp. The swordplay is stiff, but the 80s cheese is legendary 🗡🧀 #EveryNightIsMovieNight

#NowWatching Zombi 3 (1988). Dir. A shit-show of Lucio Fulci, Claudio Fragasso, and Bruno Mattei. Toxic gas makes the dead rise and all logic dies screaming in this patchwork zombie meltdown that feels like it was shot on Crack and edited with a machete. #EveryNightIsMovieNight

This ranked list is wild... #ragebait variety.com/lists/marvel...
