I know Christmas is over but I really put a lot into this piece on ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE, so I just wanted to share it again here: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/harmonies-he... Shares & subs (both free & paid) are greatly appreciated - cheers y'all! 🖤

Some Christmas horror streaming recs to spice up the holiday

Merry Xmas, ya filthy animals. Hope you all have a great one 🖤

Christmas Eve plans

New at @bloody-disgusting.com, my list of the best horror books of 2025, featuring @sgj.bsky.social, @haileypiperfights.bsky.social, @scumbelievable.bsky.social, @claymcleod.bsky.social, @ericlarocca.bsky.social , @talkscaredpod.bsky.social, and MORE! bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3...

Did you guys know that BLACK CHRISTMAS is my favorite movie about abortion? I wrote about it from that angle and how the violence of the picture overlaps and is linked to the central question of the right to choose. It's one of my favorite movies in general. www.patreon.com/posts/patron...

It’s me, the person who actually had a decent time with the new Anaconda despite its many flaws. A silly ode to the passion for filmmaking and the childhood movies that made us.

For their last chat of 2025, @neilbolt.bsky.social & @notfunnyj.bsky.social share the remainder of their game of the year picks! 🍎 apple.co/4jbbApk 🟢 bit.ly/494Qd4l @bloody-disgusting.com @bloodyfm.bsky.social @frankiepixel.bsky.social

Finally got around to Spinal Tap II. Hurt to watch Rob Reiner in his final film. The man radiated such sincere warmth and joy for the good in humanity. A tremendous loss 🖤

HORROR IN THE HIGH DESERT GIVEAWAY Grand Prize — Dolly's Box full of goodies. Other prizes: Signed Posters and Props from Majesty. ENTRY IS SIMPLE: Drop a comment on this post - tag a friend - and tell us your favorite scene from the HITHD movies. We will do a live drawing at the end of January.

Sometimes you work with cast or crew just once. Other times you make 5 movies with the same person. So instead of saying goodbye, on the last day of shooting, many of us say “See you on the next one.” Today, I don’t want to say goodbye, so let me just say, PJ, my friend, see you on the next one.

As a longtime Bears fan, I am in SHOCK right now. What a game!

Finally got around to One Battle After Another and you all weren't kidding. That was a MOVIE

Did you ever think you'd see Jason at Christmas? Check out this festive fright I wrote and directed for @paramountscares.com starring legendary final girl Melanie Kinnaman and brought to life by an incredible crew of merry mischief makers! youtu.be/A9X6_i2Zt1g?...

For all the Grinches out there (like me) this one’s for you. 🎄

Fun little item put together by our @dreadcentral.bsky.social staff. So many jaw-dropping moments in horror this year.

Manor Vellum 168 | “Misunderstood Monsters: Rebel GREMLINS in the Machine” by Matt Konopka @werematt.bsky.social 🩸📜 medium.com/@manorvellum... 7/9

Check out Matt’s top ten horror films of the year then tune in on January 2nd for the 3rd Annual Belial Awards where Matt and I will cut deep into the best of 2025

I'll admit, there's still a handful of horror films I need to catch up on from the year. That said, here are my top ten of 2025 for @dreadcentral.bsky.social:

ICYMI: Before the next episode of the podcast drops tomorrow, be sure to check out episode 70, where returning guest @werematt.bsky.social and I discuss the ongoing (?) Heavy Metal magazine produced NOTLD comic series THE RISE from Romero’s son George C. Romero. The links are in the post below!

Interviewed Rohan Campbell for @dreadcentral.bsky.social on the new Silent Night, Deadly Night. We talked stepping into the boots of Billy, that insane Nazi massacre scene, and what horror franchise he’d like to appear in next.

Oh hai! I’m gonna be recording a LIVE podcast situation about all things ROCKY HORROR w/ @theterigamble.bsky.social and @michaelvarrati.bsky.social this Saturday in North Hollywood! Fun! Details at the link - FREE but a good idea to reserve a spot 🖤 m.bpt.me/event/6745132

Folks, it's a good one! @werematt.bsky.social and I were talking it up in the Dread Central staff meeting this morning!

Can't wait to watch this. Every one of the Horror in the High Desert films from @dutchmarich.bsky.social have been creepy as hell, and it sounds like Majesty keeps that trend going.

Had the pleasure of attending a screening featuring a handful of @stephenking.bsky.social Dollar Baby shorts the other night at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. My thoughts on what was a magical evening:

Thankful for all of you who have shown me kindness over the years, you're the best. Been on a bit of a social media sabbatical (got tired of complete strangers wanting to start fights over movie posts), but hope to be around more often because I miss you friends

Happy Thanksgiving all! Here's a list of 6 streaming horror films to test your stomach that I wrote up for @dreadcentral.bsky.social

Pleasure as always chatting with my friend Bede, this time about the unfinished zombie comic series from George C. Romero!

Went to bed with genuine hope for the future last night. Felt pretty damn good, I must say

🚨 LOOKING FOR WORK 🚨 I have extensive experience in the music and horror film spheres. From interviewing big artists (Hayley Williams is my fave) to dissecting current trends in horror movies, I’ve done it all! Here’s my brand new updated portfolio! 🧡 authory.com/BeeDelores

Manor Vellum 283 | Misunderstood Monsters: The Working Dead of THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD | Written by Matt Konopka @werematt.bsky.social | 🩸📜 medium.com/@manorvellum... 3/3

With Predator: Badlands releasing soon, I took a look back at Without Warning for @dreadcentral.bsky.social, the other alien hunter film that laid the ground work for Predator

One more for October! Tagging in @billielizzie.bsky.social and @meltyfeelings.bsky.social as both of your films are mentioned! Happy Halloween y’all! #GastroHorror #HorrorSky #FilmSky

I just made my @fangoria.bsky.social debut (!!!!!) writing about 10 essential indie horror films. My picks include Slay, HeBGB TV, Deadware, and Death Drop Gorgeous 💅🏻 www.fangoria.com/essential-in...

Was a joy to join the @finalgirlsfeast.bsky.social team to discuss a film that I think embodies the spirit of Halloween better than any other, Trick ‘r Treat

Happy Halloween! Don’t forget to leave candy out for Sam

I wrote a piece on the work of writer and director James Gunn, who is engaged in a pretty incredible ongoing enterprise that despises bigotry and authoritarianism and reaffirms patriotism for progressives. www.vulture.com/article/jame...

Before the month is over I figured I'd reshare this piece on screenlife horror and LIVESCREAMERS. Give it a read. I'm super proud of it and all the work I do at @certifiedforgot.bsky.social

Mickey Keating's latest hit @shudder.com this month, and if there's one thing about me, I am present for every Mickey Keating effort. Home invasion by way of Keating's unique style is decidedly different from his prior work, but I'm still here for it! My latest for @dailygrindhouse.bsky.social:

Had a blast hopping on with Bede and Steve (and Douglas!) to talk the much-maligned TCM: The Next Generation

Finally watched Good Boy (enjoyed it!). Indy is indeed a very good doggo. 10/10 canine performance

ROTLD, a film with braaaaiiiinnnnssss

“In time, I learned the inevitable truth…We become the living dead. Walking, talking corpses that just haven't realized it yet.” New 🩸 on the membrane from Matt Konopka @werematt.bsky.social Tomorrow! 10/24/25 6:00AMET manorvellum.com

Got my contributor’s copy of umbrellaent.bsky.social New Extremity Collection Vol. 2! Thrilled to have an essay in here on the wild ride that is Dobermann. Hope you all enjoy this gorgeous set, available now.

Have another busy day ahead of me at work (and then EVENT HORIZON tonight!!!) so I just wanted to quickly share my celebration of HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL ‘99 that just went up today: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/halloween-sc... Shares/subs greatly appreciated!!

Define “perfect ending”

Guillermo del Toro is a treasure. I could listen to him talk film all day. For @dreadcentral.bsky.social, I wrote up a reflection on his journey to making Hellboy based on his comments out of Beyond Fest.
