#NowWatching 📽️

Happy Friday! My last four watched movies are below 👇 #filmsky

28 Years Later is exactly the kind of bleak and raw chaos I wanted. Danny Boyle gives us a kinetic, emotional rollercoaster that uses a bunch of different camera techniques to great effect. This is a ride you don’t want to miss out on. 📽️🔪 @28yearslater.bsky.social

Our chief film critic Steve Prokopy joined David Cronenberg for a post-screening Q&A of The Shrouds at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social 📸: Tumpale Mwakasisi

I finished this movie late last night! More thoughts to come but in short: absolute cinema 🙌🏾 #TheLordOfTheRings #filmsky 📽️

🇹🇿 Tanzania mentioned on The Rehearsal, we’re so up right now! 👏🏾📺

#nowwatching for the very first time. I opted for the extended version vs. the theatrical cut and have been having a blast so far. #filmsky

4 games I’d give a 10/10 🎮

The Ugly Stepsister is a grotesque reclamation of the fairy tale’s forgotten figure. A seething blend of body horror and feminine rage, this one is not for the faint of heart. It comes out in theaters today! #TheUglyStepsister 📽️🔪

It’s Letterboxd Friday so here are my last four watched films! I’m still riding the Sinners high after watching it on Monday. Go see it in theaters!!!✨

#Sinners is an unholy masterpiece baptized in blood and blues. Michael B. Jordan is mesmerizing in dual roles, and Coogler crafts horror that’s spiritually terrifying. I left the theater like I’d just survived something holy and harrowing. 📽️🔪 @sinnersmovie.bsky.social #SinnersMovie

I’ve been obsessed with this album lately 🎧

Me liking all the tweets about the movie Sinners #AddtoBlackSky

My #LastFourWatched for #LetterboxdFriday! This week has been amazing, I definitely recommend checking out these films when they open in theaters! #filmsky 📽️

It was lovely to hear Mark Anthony Green chat about his movie Opus at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social! Opus is an eerie Willy Wonkaesque dive into the dark side of fame. John Malkovich is delightfully bizarre, and Ayo Edebiri is exceptional. 🎵🔪 #OpusMovie #horror #filmsky 📽️

Need weekend plans? We got you covered! Check out Your Curated Weekend for ideas: thirdcoastreview.com/2025/02/27/y...

Debating whether Santa is the most popular person on Earth is funny. Devolving into a combative, half hour pitch session that explores more bizarre yet accurate contrasts to that Santa claim is masterful. It’s a food podcast. All timer too! @doughboys.bsky.social @blankcheck.bsky.social

This is a great entry episode for new Doughboys fans. It’s been my favorite podcast for years. Zach Cherry is a perfect guest. He indulges in the dumb vibe, introduces novel segments, and almost yeets himself out of the Headgum studio due to shame. The boys stumble. My heart swells. Five forks!

My #LastFourWatched for #LetterboxdFriday! I had some big hits and some big misses 😅 This week was #horror movies and The Brutalist 📽️

My #LastFourWatched for #LetterboxdFriday are #sci-fi and #horror movies, just the way I like it ✨ @letterboxd.social 📽️🔪

Happy Spotify Wrapped Day! 🎧 #MusicSky

Rereading Jurassic Park for the first time since 1995. The tone is so much more of a techno horror than I remembered. Less adventure, more suffering. The film is nearly flawless but it’s great seeing the depth of certain characters who were trimmed, hybridized, or didn’t make it to screen.

If you’re into sketch comedy, you have to check out The Birthday Boys! One of the tightest sketch shows I’ve seen, no filler sketches—just bangers. 📺 You can currently stream it through Pluto TV on demand! @plutotv.bsky.social

After yapping about Mass Effect for the longest time, I finally started playing BioWare’s Dragon Age Inquisition! 🎮 I’ve been loving it so far and I’m excited to dive deeper into RPGs! It’s on Xbox Game Pass and EA Play so it’s definitely worth checking it out.

👋🏾 Hi there! 🔪 I'm based in Chicago & I'm a horror and science fiction fan 📺 🎮 I love playing video games--I will talk about Mass Effect, Cyberpunk 2077, and Control all day. 🪩 I produce events to help people make new friends in Chicago. 💿 I love goth & dark wave music!
