Happy #NationalPickleDay to all who celebrate

This was a lot of fun - an unhinged Cinderella from the viewpoint of the ugly sister. Visually gorgeous, funny, sad and absolutely revolting - Rhinoplasty! Sewn-on fake eyelashes! Tapeworms (oh my GOD)! - the moment the too-small slipper made its entrance I knew things were about to go VERY left.

Happy Halloween! May all your love triangles be impeccably chic 🦇

Ah NO! Not Dave! This is such sad news

Cyndi Lauper's birthday! Please enjoy this *impeccable* New Wave Marie Antoinette moment

Happy Birthday to the eternally wonderful Laurie Anderson

Watched this last night and loved it - from Robert Wynne-Simmons, who also scripted The Blood On Satan’s Claw. Bleakly beautiful, smokily atmospheric - while Wynne-Simmons himself has said that he doesn’t feel the folk-horror label fits, this definitely occupies the same magical space.

It's Christopher Lee's Birthday - I gift your timeline this slice of sheer glamour Christopher and Gitte Lee. Los Angeles, 1985

#NowWatching - Tired of harvesting sinners, a succubus attempts to corrupt a pure-of-heart soldier (William Shatner!). Shot entirely in Esperanto to create an otherworldly air - a visually *beautiful* (cinematography by Conrad Hall!), atmospheric folk horror oddity with more than a nod to Bergman.

Current favourite thing: Little Edie with her brother Buddy, 1980

#BOTD the inimitable Angela Carter
