Took me back to my early teens creating this one! 😍 #HorrorSky

I just apologised to the dishwasher for opening it before it was done 🤦🏻

This movement will not be stopped. Powerful #redline protest for Palestine in Bath today 🇵🇸

Loved NIGHT TIDE (Curtis Harrington, 1961). Could well be a beatnik Val Lewton/RKO production. Beautiful leads, fantastic soundtrack, dreamy, mythical California setting. Like slipping into a deeply comforting opium dream.

Made this tribute video for British actress and Hammer Films star Veronica Carlson, when she passed 3 years ago (on this day). #Hammerfilms youtu.be/qwm56ZDNluE?...

London today. Heartening to see so many defiant souls out in force ❤️🇵🇸 #freepalestine

The world is going backwards. We will not. We are extremely proud to be a safer space where entertainment, inclusion and welfare take equal precedence - and we will always fight to protect this. All forms of abuse will be met with immediate bans. Our comms are always open for feedback.

Listening to The Song of Achilles and falling in hopeless love with it all over again. My favourite book of all time, @madelinemiller.bsky.social is a true, true poet ✨💔

A full house for Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter on the big screen in Bristol! 🗡️🧄🐸🩸 #HammerFilms

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic. (posting in 3 parts due to Bluesky's 1 minute limit)

Haven’t been brave enough to read the full Vulture article yet but given the commentary, Neil Gaiman clearly a monstrous man. A lesson that such unchecked misogyny can lurk in even those whose work seems imbued with emotionally intelligence. I hope his victims heal and due justice is served.

Been away on a writing retreat with my ma in the depths of the Forest of Dean, and have returned abounding with creativity. A new page (well, multiple pages) turned. 🏡✍️📽️

Goddamn man he absolutely nailed it. It is entirely possible.

Please welcome and follow @mothinali.bsky.social a fantastic Green councillor and a pillar of his community, who is being targeted by the far right. A smashing guy, who absolutely does not deserve this hatred. Go show him some bluesky love. 💚💚💚

My full review for #Nosferatu 🖤 boxd.it/8kZDif

Nosferatu sublime aesthetically, like being lost in a dread-filled dream. I struggled to connect with it emotionally though. Like admiring a magnificent painting but not being moved by it. This perhaps due to the screenplay’s intermittent hamminess being at odds with the film’s visual authenticity…

Doesn’t feel like 2025 has begun. Have a sneaking suspicion I should cherish this peaceful no-man’s land while I can…🫣

Today is the fourth anniversary of the passing of British actress Barbara Shelley, famed for her work with Hammer. Will never forget the golden afternoon we once spent, discussing her life in film. x

Finally leaving my cave of chocolate, crisps, wine and cheese in the new dawn of a modest life. I feel exposed and disorientated but trust in the process. 🙏

An afternoon away from the noise of life and reconnecting with source energy. A blessed Winter Solstice to you all ✨

Happened across a man in deep emotional distress late one night this week. I sat with him and during that time two other men passing by asked us if we were Ok or needed anything. So heartening. Bristol can feel like a special place sometimes.

If you see this post something toothy.

After Wes Streeting's decision to harm a generation of trans children for nothing but culture war and his own personal disgust I hope Labour are never welcome at another Pride for as long as he lives

Just discovered we’re getting Nosferatu a week after the US release. The small pleasures in life mean a lot right now. The disappointment is palpable. 😐

Official trailer for #28yearslater is now out. youtu.be/ammLRovn_GQ?...

This is 45! 🖤🎂

The dramatic high winds early this morning made me wanna venture in to the night in a shawl with a lantern. 💨

My mum is in touch with a woman whose daughter & grandchildren are in Gaza. They’ve lost everything but plans are in motion with the Home Office for them to join her in the UK. The costs are huge though. Please donate or share. This is a LEGIT way to help. Thank you 🙏 More info: gofund.me/4f66150c

Savouring the devilry of this moment…🖤

Before we were SO connected with the pain and suffering across the world, we lived in small communities. Tapering the intake of the world’s woes and focusing on the good that can be done in ‘our own corner of the garden’ has been key for me this year.

Existential musings seem to be lining up in my head like nobody’s business. Bloody exhausting!

My hedonistic side satiated to the max at the weekend and now feel like being alone with a stack of gothic movies for the rest of December.

My Insta timeline consists almost entirely of sponsored and superfluous Wicked content and haunting Palestine videos. The world seems to get more and more dystopian by the day…

Crazy how some songs physically hurt when heard because they instantly take you back 20 plus years. The depths that music can reach…💔

Olympus calling…

Mad how the other place just feels like a dead space now…yesterday’s news, last season etc, etc. 🚮 (I’m just gonna lean in to the Twitter vs Bluesky discourse until it burns itself out).

My prized Countess Dracula vid, signed by Ingrid Pitt herself when I was but a teen. Happy heavenly birthday to the delectable lady today. Pretty sure she’s raising hell up there 👑

Since culling all major western news outlets, I find myself once more attuning to the mysterious and ancient vibrations that exist within me. Hadn’t realised how much my frequency had been scrambled post my brain becoming so busy comprehending the chaos of the world. Feels good to be home.

Morning Bluesky. May Diana of the Amazons guide you through this (damp) midweekery.

Portal number 12.

This moody weather’s making me want to light a fire and curl up in front of The Brides of Dracula at 09:59am.

The Popular with Friends feed = thirst trap central atm. A cheeky (if somewhat distracting) lift of a Tuesday morning. A more integrated sexual lib clearly a mainstay here. I dig.

I long for the days of wistfully watching wild birds feed in my garden whilst scriptwriting at my kitchen table (Instead of the existential dread that threatens to blight each day!). At least connecting with good souls on BlueSky a welcome reprieve.

Elon Musk’s basically Lex Luther isn’t he.

Family includes everyone! ❤️

Just had my first needless negative interaction from a stranger on this here app. Knew it wouldn’t always be so sunny! At least it feels like a lone village nut causing trouble rn. Easily sorted 🚫
