If you can believe it, eleven days world-class cinema right here in Philly has already come and gone! Thank you to the sponsors of the 34th Philadelphia Film Festival!

THE PLAGUE - And indescribably bizarre, but oddly relatable tale about the cruelty of hormonal young boys forced to cohabitate. It’s as gross as it is funny as it is fascinating. Top-tier kid performances. Joel Edgerton wears flip-flops in every scene. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

PRIMATE - In a world replete with horror movies about trauma and grief, it’s nice to have one that’s simply about a rabid chimp ripping people to shreds. Killer score, amazing practical gore effects — a blast for me and my fellow sickos. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

My favorite movie from this year’s Philly Film Festival was “Nirvana The Band The Show The Movie” and it’s not even close. Y’all need to see this in theaters next year and just have a blast. #PhillyFilmFestival #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

IT ENDS - A mishmash of sci-fi concepts shouldn’t work this well, but the thematics are strong, the characters likable, and the dialogue whip smart. I hope that this gets a theatrical release and a lost Colleen Hoover fan wanders in and has their mind blown. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE - 🎶Mother Mia Here I go again My, my, how can I resist you?🎵 ::rhythmically slaps chest:: #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

For a limited time, you can now get Film Festival merch online! Due to popular demand and in-person merch sellouts, Super Yaki x PFF34 are now offering online preordering through 11/2 to be shipped in late November. superyaki.com/collections/...

Just announced! The Philadelphia Film Society will be presenting Colman Domingo with this year's Lumière Award at 34th Philadelphia Film Festival this Sunday following DEAD MAN'S WIRE. Limited tickets are available, get yours today at the link below! ✨ filmadelphia.org/movies/dead-...

BARRIO TRISTE - A cinematic machete to the throat. An assault on the senses that cannot be described but through experience. Extremely my shit, and probably my fav of the fest so far. Something about that digital grime just sets me off. I LOVED this. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

New this week at PFS 🖼️🔭 Guillermo del Toro's FRANKENSTEIN and Kelly Reichardt's THE MASTERMIND are opening at the Bourse! Both are Official Selections from PFF34, if you missed the sold-out screenings at the Film Society Center we'll see you this week! filmadelphia.org/showtimes/

Get your Philly Film Fest totes, Super Yaki shirts, A24 hats, and Criterion DVDs ready for what people (us) are saying will be the definitive performative cinephile contest of the year! This Saturday at 1:30 PM outside the Fest Lounge 🎞️

LIFEHACK - An exciting and flawlessly executed heist movie … all on a computer screen. Who says you need an EMP and cool outfits to steal a ton of money with your friends? #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

HONEY BUNCH - Although it treads well-worn (tired?) territory, a novel plot-structure, strong direction, and a star-making performance from Grace Glowicki make this decidedly fucked up little movie more than worthwhile. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

HEADS OR TAILS? - come for John C. Reilly as Buffalo Bill Cody, stay for a layered, gorgeously shot “on the lam” western. Inventive direction and a duo of excellent leading performances elevate a standard script. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

NO OTHER CHOICE - Park Chan-Wook’s playful direction proves a perfect match for this twisted adaptation of Westlake’s THE AX. Madcap hilarity meets pitch black satire. A perfect film. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

Tinsel & Tine #MiniMovieReview DAY 2 PHILADELPHIA FILM FESTIVAL #PFF34 THE PRESIDENT'S CAKE - HASAN HADI | IRAQ, UNITED STATES, QATAR | 2025 | 102 MIN | ARABIC @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social @philafcc.bsky.social

Magellan is fantastic, it was wonderful to see a slow-cinema insta-classic and then dissect everything that was shown and not shown with my brother afterwards. What else are film festivals for? Support @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social if you're in town

Seated for Frankenstein at @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social, packed house, gonna rule

Having a blast at the @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social Philadephia Film Festival. Three movies down so far and plenty more to go in the next week!

MAN FINDS TAPE - A clever concept and imaginative execution struggles under the combined weight of its framing device and needlessly expansive mythology. It’s a fun watch, but it tries to do way too much and drowns its own potential to scare. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

NUREMBERG - Five unfinished movies mashed into one unfocused mess. Ugly and devoid of energy. A handful of striking moments, and a wealth of unintentionally funny ones. Michael Shannon innocent. Russell Crowe and Rami Malek guilty. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

CASE 137 - a thrilling and upsetting police procedural that criticizes the state’s talent for self-preservation, even when guilty of flagrant abuses of power. Timely, urgent, and masterfully executed. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

URCHIN - A frank portrait of addiction and homelessness with an empathetic and explosive performance from Frank Dillane. I’m forever mad that writer/director Harris Dickinson has the gall to be so damn talented and so much younger than me. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

BLUE MOON - Hawke disappears into Lorenz Hart, depicting a brilliant artist’s booze-fueled transformation into a shell of what he once was. Despite the heavy concept, the film remains light and funny. Musical theater nerds will go gaga for the material. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

Gary M. Kramer reviews locally-made DEAD GIVEAWAY for #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social scullyvision.com/2025/10/18/d...

DEAD GIVEAWAY - A friend of mine made this, so instead of a biased review I’ll just say that I’m really proud of him and also I would like to take Mikaela Hoover out for a steak dinner. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

HAMNET - A Shakespeare riff that is going to make a lot of Shakespeare fans out of people who don’t like Shakespeare. A staggering piece of cinematic art. It’s a shame I will never be able to say the title without giggling (this is a me problem). #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

MIROIRS No 3: While it doesn’t go anywhere unexpected, it goes there with Petzold’s distinct brand of grace and melodrama. If you’re into this sort of thing, you’ll love it (I am into this sort of thing). #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

HYSTERIA - a slow burn until it’s not. A masterful set up that puts a million pieces in play without revealing its hand, and then a compelling mystery unfolds. One particular turn of the screw made we squeal. Brilliant!! #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

THE DATING GAME - a sweet-natured look at an unexplored angle of the One Child Policy: a skewed man-to-woman ratio makes dating a challenge for young Chinese men. Light, but thought-provoking. #PFF34 @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social

Premiering at the @phillyfilmsociety.bsky.social's festival tonight, I got to interview director-writer Ian Kimble about his feature film debut DEAD GIVEAWAY: comicon.com/2025/10/17/3...
