Last rave review goes to YOU - the people I will most likely never have the privilege of meeting in person, the ticket buyers and movie fans who have allowed me to indulge my own day dreams and sometimes bash them into movies…the people I owe everything to. If you see me, say hi so I can say thanks.

Next rave review: a film called The Plague. Whilst not strictly a horror film, it is tense and unnerving in ways that dig under your skin with barbed hooks. Directed with such confidence by Charlie Polinger and featuring some of - if not THE - best acting from teenagers I’ve ever seen, this one hits

Time for some good reviews. I just finished reading this first rate crime thriller by S.A. Cosby. The whole book is a tense, white-knuckle ride from start to finish. And Cosby delivers a masterclass on how to make your readers be VERY afraid of your villains. Surely a limited series is in the works?

Thanks for all the birthday love, legends.

Such is the Videodrome-esque gravitational pull of social media that I occasionally feel guilty for never posting here. In order to atone for my sins, ask me any questions and I’ll check in and answer them.

This is my favourite song from the album right now. Not sure if it was intentional but it gives The Sword vibes in the best way.

Absolutely fucking loving the new album Something To Consume from Die Spitz. It shreds. Please listen to it.

Philip Seymour Hoffman’s delivery of the line “…cos I work on the films so if you ever, you know…” in this scene is some of the greatest acting of all time. RIP to this genius.

Ahoy there! Most times when I use Bluesky it feels like mumbling into the void and I’m not sure who is actually out there listening…but for those who are: I hope you have a great 2026. The kind of year filled with personal victories and moments of joy that rekindles your faith in human beings. Hugs.

happy new year everyone! 🎆🍾

After a banner year of Warner Bros putting unique, filmmaker driven original movies into theaters and getting giant audience turn out for them, the corporation that now owns them would like you to know that actually you didn’t like this and that what you really wanted was to watch at home.

Watching The Silence Of The Lambs on VHS in order to add another layer onto the cocoon of nostalgia psychosis that I have woven around myself as a way to detach from the modern world.
