I'll keep fucking saying it until people get it or I annoy them into submission. And trust me, I can be REAL FUCKING ANNOYING. Ask around. #ProtectTransKids #TransLivesMatter #FuckJoRowling

For Cinema Sunday, I decided to check a huge #firsttimewatch off the list: Ben-Hur (1959)! The 4K UHD remaster of this, first off, is pristine in both sound and vision. It brings out the absolute BONKERS scale of this movie - all practical effects, sets, extras, etc. (1/2)

Man...Project Hail Mary. A magical, soaring anthem of a movie. It made me feel the way I did the 1st time I watched Star Wars. Raiders of the Lost Ark. Back to the Future. See it on the biggest screen you can. They don't make 'em like this anymore. 🖤 #ProjectHailMary #RyanGosling #AmazeAmazeAmaze

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

My personal favorite flicks of 2025. If you agree? Great! If you disagree? Great!

#JackieChanukkah, Night 8, Movie 8. A #firsttimewatch. #NewFistofFury was the official-ish sequel to Fist of Fury, the famed Bruce Lee vehicle. It set Jackie as the would-be successor, onscreen and off, to the Dragon. (1/2)

#JackieChanukkah Night 7, Movie 7. A #firsttimewatch. A much more serious role & film during his '90s peak, #CrimeStory is like watching Jackie and his stunts crossed with a John Woo production. (1/2)

#JackieChanukkah Night 6, Movie 6. A #firsttimewatch. The #AroundtheWorldin80Days remake had no right to be that fun! It was a damn good time, and I cheered for the #ArnoldSchwarzenegger & #SammoHung cameos especially. A pleasant surprise all around. Watched on Disney+. #JackieChanukkah2025

#JackieChanukkah Night 5, Movie 5. A #firsttimewatch. I was a bit hesitant when I started #HeartofDragon last night. I wasn't sure about #SammoHung playing a special needs adult & Jackie playing his brother/caretaker. However, this was surprisingly nuanced...(1/2)

#JackieChanukkah Night 4, Movie 4. A #FirstTimeWatch. I watched #Gorgeous last night...surprised to find it's a romcom! The highlights here are both fights against Brad Allan, the 1st non-Asian member of the Jackie Chan Stunt Team. Watched on Blu-Ray from 88 Films. #JackieChanukkah2025 #JackieChan

#JackieChanukkah Night 3, Movie 3. A #firsttimewatch. #WhoAmI is bonkers. Jackie dangles out of a chopper, fights in clogs, and RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF A GODDAMN SKYSCRAPER. This one might as well be his late 90s highlight reel! Watched on Blu-Ray from Umbrella. #jackiechanukkah2025 #JackieChan

#JackieChanukkah Night 2, Movie 2. A #firsttimewatch. I was looking forward to #KarateKidLegends, as it succeeds #CobraKai & connects Mr. Han to the Miyagis. It was fine...could've used more Jackie, but I get it. At least it's a #tight90, which I dig. Watched on Netflix. #JackieChanukkah2025

#JackieChanukkah Night 1, Movie 1. A #firsttimewatch. As a fan of #TheKarateKid, I wasn't sure what I'd get w/ the 2010 version. Jackie's the best part of it, ofc, but it had heart. Thumbs up from me; a strong start to this year's festivities! Watched on Netflix. #jackiechanukkah2025 #JadenSmith

Here's the #JackieChanukkah2025 watch list: The Karate Kid (2010) Karate Kid: Legends (2025) Who Am I? (1998) Gorgeous (1999) Heart of Dragon (1985) Crime Story (1993) New Fist of Fury (1976) Around the World in 80 Days (2004) See you soon for Night 1! #JackieChanukkah #8Nights8Movies1Man1Chan

This feels very fitting tonight. We need actual leaders that will fight the tide of fascism, not these spineless charlatans that let it drag us all under. #Murica

Maybe my favorite thing about #Jacktober is when we bust out the full list and go #ByTheNumbers! We tallied 66 movies this year, w/ 41 #firsttimewatches for a 62.1% clip. (Cont.)

#Jacktober Day 31, Movie 65. There's 2 kinds of people in this world: those that love & recognize #HalloweenIIISeasonoftheWitch as the classic it is, and those that are wrong. Which one are you?! Watched on Peacock. #Jacktober2025 #EternalSexGodTomAtkins #SilverShamrock #JohnCarpenter

#Jacktober Day 30, Movie 64. A #firsttimewatch. #HellboyTheCrookedMan is a smaller movie than its predecessors - that's a feature, not a bug. I thought #JackKesy was a good Big Red, in a faithful adaptation of one of my favorite #MikeMignola stories. Watched on Hulu. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror

#Jacktober Day 29, Movie 63. #TheWolfMan: my GF's favorite of the #UniversalMonsters and therefore a must-watch. PS, #LarryTalbot is a total fuckboy in this movie, and it's hard to feel bad for him. 😂 Watched on Google TV. #Jacktober2025 #1940shorror #UniversalHorror #LonChaneyJr #ClaudeRains

#Jacktober Day 28, Movie 62. The finale of the Apocalypse Trilogy, #InTheMouthofMadness is not only the best Lovecraftian horror movie to date, but the finest horror film of the '90's. I SAID WHAT I SAID. Incredible! Watched on 4K UHD from Arrow. #Jacktober2025 #DoYouReadSutterCane #JohnCarpenter

#Jacktober Day 28, Movie 61. A request! Goddamn, do I love #PsychoGoreman; an intergalactic splatterfest w/ a wicked sense of humor & killer practical FX. Makes me wish crazyball caught on as a sport, y'know? Watched on Google TV. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror #IDoNotCareForHunkyBoys #OrDoI #PG

#Jacktober Day 27, Movie 60. A highly recommended #firsttimewatch, #Insidious was a MUCH better Wan/Whannell movie than #DeadSilence was last night. It was also a treat to see the OG #LinShaye pop up in this as well. Watched on HBO Max. #Jacktober2025 #LeighWhannell #JamesWan

#Jacktober Day 26, Movie 59. A #firsttimewatch. #DeadSilence was...very meh. Probably my least favorite movie of this year's marathon. Also the constant blue filter is something I'm glad that horror left back in the 2000's. Watched on Blu-Ray. #Jacktober2025 #JamesWan #LeighWhannell #2000shorror

#Jacktober Day 26, Movie 58. It was a real treat to see #ParaNorman on the big screen, and with the new short #TheThrifting in front of it as well. I wish we had more adventures in this universe. Watched at @regalcinemas.bsky.social. #Jacktober2025 #Laika #animation #horrorcomedy

#Jacktober Day 25, Movie 57. Another yearly #UniversalMonsters rewatch, #Dracula holds up 94(!) years later on the strength of #BelaLugosi's performance, one of the most influential ever put to film. Watched on 4K UHD from Universal. #Jacktober2025 #1930shorror #UniversalHorror #HollywoodGothic

#Jacktober Day 25, Movie 56. Another #firsttimewatch as I finished the series w/ #HotelTransylvaniaTransformania. To quote @thatmovieisfine, it was indeed fine, but not memorable. 😅 Watched on Prime Video. #Jacktober2025 #hoteltransylvania #animation #monstermovie

#Jacktober Day 25, Movie 55. A #firsttimewatch. Is #hoteltransylvania3 as good as the first 2? Nah. Am I still having fun with this series? YES. I wish this had existed when I was young. Watched on Netflix. #Jacktober2025 #horrorcomedy #animation

#Jacktober Day 25, Movie 54. A #firsttimewatch. I threw on #HotelTransylvania2 because I enjoyed the 1st one so much. Any movie that gives me surprise #MelBrooks & #NickOfferman is OK by me! Watched on Hulu. #Jacktober2025 #horrorcomedy #animation

#Jacktober Day 24, Movie 53. Surprisingly, #HotelTransylvania is a #firsttimewatch! Gotta say, it's delightful, and finding out #GenndyTartakovsky directed it has me kicking myself for waiting so long. Watched on Hulu. #Jacktober2025 #animation #monstermovie #AdamSandler #SelenaGomez #AndySamberg

#Jacktober Day 23, Movie 52. My most anticipated #firsttimewatch, #Frankenstein is clearly #GuillermoDelToro making his passion play. It's a fantastic, gothic, storybook work of art. I can't wait for everyone to see it very soon. Watched at Roadhouse Cinemas. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror

#Jacktober Day 22, Movie 51. A #firsttimewatch that my GF lobbied for, #Zombeavers was fucking ridiculous. 😂 Everything from the transformations onward made me giggle. Watched on Prime Video. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror #horrorcomedy #CurseYouBillBurr

#Jacktober Day 22, Movie 50. A #firsttimewatch. I'm not sure why people disliked #WolfMan. I really enjoyed it, both from a story and makeup FX perspective. I'm going against the crowd and recommending it! Watched on Prime Video. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror #UniversalMonsters #UniversalHorror

#Jacktober Day 22, Movie 49. A #firsttimewatch. Our 1st great Bad Movie of the marathon! #Necropolis is pure sleaze. It has everything: Punk witches! Reincarnation! '80s NYC! Sassy hookers! Ectoplasm! Demonic breastfeeding! Ridiculously fun. Watched on Prime Video. #Jacktover2025 #80shorror

#Jacktober Day 21, Movie 48. A #firsttimewatch. #Flatliners was very 1990 & VERY #JoelSchumacher. With everything good, bad & weird it entails. 😂 The assembled cast is definitely the best part. Watched on Fandango. #Jacktober2025 #90shorror #ghosts #KeiferSutherland #KevinBacon #JuliaRoberts

#Jacktober Day 21, Movie 47. A #firsttimewatch. #FrankieFreako was delightfully janky, in the way only 80s/90s puppet horror could be. A love letter to old-school practical effects movies. My kind of weird! Watched on @shudder.com. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror #horrorcomedy #puppets #GunCollege

#Jacktober Day 19, Movie 45. A #firsttimewatch. #Viy is a Soviet folk horror about the death of a witch & her torment of the seminary student sitting prayer w/ her body. Simple premise, but one that shows clever effects & a battle of wills. Watched on YouTube. #Jacktober2025 #60shorror #folkhorror

#Jacktober Day 19, Movie 44. A #firsttimewatch. #NakedLunch may be the most confounding movie I've ever watched. I liked it - unmistakably a #DavidCronenberg movie - but I'm still ruminating on the Burroughs of it all. Watched on 4K UHD from Arrow. #Jacktober2025 #bodyhorror #WilliamSBurroughs

#Jacktober Day 19, Movie 42. #TheOldDarkHouse had been so overlooked for so long, it's nice to see it be re-appraised as the classic that it's always been. #JamesWhale influenced almost as many projects with this as he did with #Frankenstein the year before it. (cont.)

#Jacktober Day 18, Movie 41. A #firsttimewatch. I honestly don't know what to write about #TheHauntedWorldofElSuperbeasto. It's dumb. It's crude. It's absolutely ridiculous. And by default, it's easily my favorite #RobZombie movie. Watched on DVD. #Jacktober2025 #animation #horrorcomedy #DrSatan

#Jacktober Day 18, Movie 40. A #firsttimewatch, #GoodBoy features the handsomest, bravest hero at the movies all year - Indy! Really impressed by his performance. This was a fun #shortassmovie. I recommend it, especially for dog owners. Watched at AMC Theaters. #Jacktober2025 #modernhorror

#Jacktober Day 17, Movie 39. A #firsttimewatch. #TheKeep is intriguing. It's uneven (due mostly to studio interference), but you won't catch me ragging on a flick where an ancient evil is awakened & says, "Yeah, you know what? Even *I* hate Nazis, the scummy fucks!" before wiping them out. (cont.)

#Jacktober Day 16, Movie 38. "KARLOFF DOES NOT DESERVE TO SMELL MY SHIT!" Oh man, #EdWood is so much fun. Not my favorite #TimBurton movie, but very close to it. #MartinLandau as #BelaLugosi is an all-time performance. Watched on Google TV. #Jacktober2025 #biopic #Plan9FromOuterSpace #Vampira

#Jacktober Day 16, Movie 37. Another yearly stop, I had to finish the Karloff/Monster jams w/ #SonofFrankenstein. Half the jokes you love in #YoungFrankenstein were the direct result of this. It also features my favorite death scene in any horror movie, too! Watched on Google TV. #Jacktober2025

#Jacktober Day 15, Movie 36. A standing request by my friend Tyler. I've been overdue for a rewatch of #PhantomoftheParadise. It's safe to call it my favorite DePalma movie! Watched on Google TV. #Jacktober2025 #DeathRecords #PaulWilliams #BrianDePalma #BEEF

#Jacktober Day 15, Movie 35. A #firsttimewatch, #GalaxyofTerror starts as an Alien ripoff, but ends up about controlling fear & FIGHTING GOD. AWESOME. P.S. I see you in the credits, James Cameron! Your prints are there! Watched on Shudder. #Jacktober2025 #80shorror #RogerCorman #NewWorldPictures

#Jacktober Day 14, Movie 34. I hadn't watched #TheRockyHorrorPictureShow since at least 2018 when I hung up my heels and retired from Sins o' the Flesh In LA. With the 50th anniversary upon us, I turned on the new 4K restoration tonight. (cont.)
