"And that's why I've today decided to dress as the greatest warrior of them all: Liberace"

This week, we're talking about The Invite and the latest Jackass, so apologies if our language got the teeniest bit spicier than usual. #filmsky 📽️ apple.co/4vVhsZs

It's been too long since we've recorded a proper guest episode of @certifiedforgotten.com, and I love how @madmanmendez.bsky.social threw us right back in the deep end with Damon Packard's REFLECTIONS OF EVIL hahahaha. Holy shit, this movie.

Would like to baldly push my wares here this morning, especially a novel of mine that gets scant attention among my other work: BORIS SAYS THE WORDS. The more I think on it, the more I wish this had a bigger audience. That is, say, 15 readers, instead of, say, 5. Etc. a.co/d/07My296K

Amazing news! NEW VERA DREW MOVIE ALERT!!

THE OMEN Written by David Seltzer

Sometimes I have to remind myself that there’s a lot of good shit around, including a lot of folks on here. You’re great, and I love seeing posts about other pockets of joy around the world. Please keep making this a great hang?

Thrilled to reveal the cover for my new book Scaredy Cats: A Devilish History of Felines in Horror out next spring from @arsenalpulp.bsky.social. Cover design by Fleck Creative.

Sorry the InfoWars theme song is still stuck in your head. The good news is there's a second one coming in three days. I'm two weeks ahead of the game on this, so I can guarantee the cycle will repeat.

For Ranker, I wrote about comedians who were cancelled, not for their jokes but for their behavior. www.ranker.com/list/comedia...

When I was a little kid these opening credits gave me the creeps

Your friends to the north wish you a very happy Fingers Crossed Today’s The Day day. Enjoy!

The book launches in two months. Can you tell? #booksky

Thank Christ they’re married I can defecate now

We will never be profitable but we can put beautiful books in your mailbox

Watching the Calgary Stampede parade, and who should go by but our lovely, not slimy at all premier!

It’s #FridayReads time! Let’s share books & boost all signals. Repost this & let us know what to repost for you. Flying back to Austin tomorrow, so I’m a bunch of feelings in a blender and just want folks to read about home, my friends, magic, storms…and it’s only $13! www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0316...

So far, I have two reviews for my new novel (e-book) THOUGHT UP DEMONS, your typical gory apocalyptic religious satire. Even if you don’t dig it, I’d love to hear from you. And if you haven’t picked it up yet, click the link below! a.co/d/00nNdpQu #booksky

If you missed it the first go around, get on the good foot: MAN FINDS TAPE is terrific cosmic fun, and Tubi has it. (The man below I’m quoting is wonderful in it. Shh.) Watch it now!

I’m rewatching the latest SALEM’S LOT, and I liked it the first time. The second time around strips the expectations away and I’m loving the atmosphere and performances. It’s not a patch on Hooper’s, but hey, what is?

Thanks, Alex! Here's that drawing and a link to the book, THOUGHT UP DEMONS a.co/d/069PKAtV

I am a VERY newly annointed single mum and the circumstances leading to this newfound status have been really ugly - deeply unpleasant, upsetting and destabilising. If you've ever enjoyed my books, blu-ray work or horror documentaries, now is the time to help a sister out!

Now Showing: first time watch. Oh boy, let’s go

At Darker Times we believe you can love and hate things and express those opinions and all still be friends! It can even be fun! (But if you agree with me we both know we are secretly right.)

messing with stickers to slap on a handful of copies i put in my local indie shop. if you are in LA, you might see these pop up in North Fig Bookshop!

Sylvia Donner had been through a lot in her almost forty years; but she wasn't expecting a deceased serial killer nor a slovenly bored deity to upend her world. Certainly not on the midshift at the Sugar Shack. Check out THOUGHT UP DEMONS, all for the price of a couple eggs. a.co/d/069PKAtV

As Amazon buries the world in deals this week, we are bringing back the two books and a t-shirt bundle, at a lower price. The shirts are comfy, made and printed in the U.S. The books, too, are comfy. malarkeybooks.com/store/twoboo...

Affordability is back again if you like buying bread and canned meats from Dollarama

My 2026 has been a divorce-shaped Stygian nightmare of housing insecurity, drifting between Airbnbs, couchsurfing + housesitting. But the goddess just blessed me with my own tiny apartment! I need to move/furnish it for myself + kid almost from scratch: a humble call for help if you can to do so!

The latest issue of @filmstories.bsky.social is now out, featuring my film music column with new reviews, a top ten of Pixar soundtracks, and a feature on Masters of the Universe (1987). There’s also a long article by me on the music of Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Link in replies.

This is AJ. It’s his birthday so act accordingly. Hope it’s been great, bud!

10 years ago my wife kindly asked me to, “find someone else to talk to about Friday the 13th movies with” and Kill By Kill was born! This Friday, join us as @genadoesthings.bsky.social and I take stock of the many silly movies, delightful guests, and unhinged characters we’ve covered for a decade.

Hey Bluesky, could you help me signal boost my Big Cartel shop? A sale or two would be a massive help. Jeremy Creatures are designed and hand-sewed by me, and they take many hours to create. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

back on my bullshit (talking about Poltergeist as a reflection of white 80s middle class anxieties)!!!!

I can't wait for so many more readers to get lost in the gorgeous world of THE OATHS THAT BIND US! Lee (Lee A. Everett) was the very first client I signed, and OATHS is magical, enthralling, and a fresh approach to so many classic fantasy elements. Stay tuned for this one!

It’s #FridayReads time! Repost this and let us know what to repost for you. This multi-award-losing novel is still only $12! I hate Bezos, but not everyone can pay $20+ and with no contract/my editor gone from Mulholland, every copy matters. Go on, share what you love! www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0316...

New clip! @isaacbutler.bsky.social, author of THE PERFECT MOMENT: GOD, SEX, ART, AND THE BIRTH OF AMERICA’S CULTURE WARS, explains why culture wars will always rage in the USA. Watch the full episode on YouTube: buff.ly/WH8tHuC Listen on Apple podcasts: buff.ly/S3ARqym

So HUNGRY—the hungry, hungry hippo movie—is actually a decent aquatic horror flick? Good creature SFX! On VOD now.
