By the way, if you're in TV or film, have pitched Warner or Paramount or really any studio, & believe that the Warner-Paramount deal will harm your ability to work or diminish your pay, go to this website and share your story. That's the evidence needed for a state AG case: blockthemerger.com

if you're at #SWPACA26 i have been granted inexplicable permission to lead a roundtable discussion on folk horror and *gestures broadly* tomorrow

Fuck this and everyone who helped get things to this point. Trans rights are human rights—full stop.

"Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind refugee from Burma who Border Patrol agents dropped off at a doughnut shop Thursday and left to find his way home, 5 miles away, has been found dead." To read the words is to damn all involved, from Trump on down.

I was on Twitter for the writers and the book recommendations, the essays, the poetry, the community. I am here now for the same. I’m a nerd. Please reply with a favorite recent essay or poem or story or book recommendation, and thank you.

One of Tubi's recommendations to watch next is Dan Curtis's Dracula starring Jack Palance, not exactly someone I picture in that role 😬 I think I'm more inclined to rewatch The Comedy of Terrors

cat went right for the pupils there, holy moly #horrorwatch

oh now the cat decides to chill?? #horrorwatch

i've seen this bonnie tyler music video before #horrorwatch

"stone by stone" checks out architecturally, can't disagree with your police work there #horrorwatch

what. what? #horrorwatch

"i tried to kill a stray cat with a cabbage" is delivered perfectly. chef's kiss #horrorwatch

it's weird how the long british obsession with ancient egypt has carried into horror. like, they were drinking liquefied mummies into the 30s #horrorwatch

the proto-steampunk romance of it all is delightful #horrorwatch

just a normal british day of sending forty thousand dogs after a fox while dressed for an awards ceremony in thousand year church ruins #horrorwatch

A lovely and much appreciated prerequisite for inclusion in both #horrorwatch and #folkhorrorfriday #watchparties

cat! also she's alive already? #horrorwatch

Thanks for your efforts putting this on. I've come away from almost all these films surprised and edified. Many new favorites. #folkhorrorfriday

gastrohororr! the horror of front of the house staff showing customers what really happens back of the house! #folkhorrorfriday

honestly never sure what to do with the tattoos in this movie. i mean. they're on a witch. #folkhorrorfriday

if there's one thing i remember from boy scouts it's that you should never ever sharpen a saw that close to your crotch #folkhorrorfriday

another possible double feature: THE COMPANY OF WOLVES we got well stocked larders, woods, shrooms, gender roles, ominous feasts #folkhorrorfriday

oh. oh no. this creep. christ, this has aged. um. #folkhorrorfriday

excited to revisit this Osgood Perkins fairytale. i have a soft spot for its beautiful shots, but i wonder how well it holds up #folkhorrorfriday

The dealbreaking question for all AI filmmakers: if it only cost you $30,000 to make, why should people pay $20 each to see it?

I propose to make universal the old policy of the Blackfriars conference at the American Shakespeare Center: If you do not end your paper on time, you will be forced to exit, pursued by a bear. Literally, a bear will come take your paper from you.

the world order effectively letting the palestinian genocide occur with no real objections has effectively dropped the formalities around pretending to care about genocide in the post-ww2 era and so the 21st century will be marked by more genocides & attempts to depoliticize them

it is happening again (squash and lentils, mirepoix, potato gratin)

I went to camp with an English kid and we called him sheep-shagger and he was significantly more upset at the implication that he was Welsh than than implication that he shagged sheep the enmity runs deep

and now she's playing a more dramatic piano tune while this guy is polishing his rifle. phenomenal #horrorwatch

the piano music when she watches them is a bit... what #horrorwatch

Bava really was a master of atmosphere. While other films of this period looked fake and cheap, his set-up shots always look natural and spooky. #HorrorWatch

"i'm not afraid of a ghost, i fought with napoleon" buddy that's not the argument you think it is #horrorwatch

it's been a hot minute since i watched BLACK SUNDAY so i'm glad i can revisit it for #horrorwatch

Another book to add to the acquisition pile!

it's Friday the 13th, i'm obligated to tell you my book about horror movies is out now. it's about folk horror, ecohorror, gastrohorror. sadly Jason only gets a cameo, but Stardew Valley makes a surprise appearance at least

Next #FolkHorrorFriday, we are watching GRETEL AND HANSEL by Oz Perkins. Not my favorite Perkins film, but I'm eager to revisit the striking visuals. 9pm ET. Free to stream on Tubi.

WHAT?! WHAAAAT???? #folkhorrorfriday
