The Exorcist Hereditary Poltergeist (the original - not the remake) The Blair Witch Project Special mentions to Evil Dead 2 and my favourite film of all time, Aliens (which is more sci-fi action than it is horror IMO).

2 more days...

Absolute viral banger. youtu.be/lCp7rZWpt5o

Me 5 minutes ago: "I wonder what Pauly Shore is up to these days?" www.instagram.com/reel/DJKtpZb...

Alien Earth just keeps getting better. Manipulation everywhere. Each Lost Boy getting compelling and unique narratives. That final scene with Wendy. And goddamn - that sheep scene was brutal perfection. Kill it with 🔥 Hawley's writing is simply flawless.

Oh fuck right off... #TodaysWordle

Ahhh it is that special time of the season where I begrudgingly cheer for my most despised NRL clubs because their victories benefit my team the most heading into the finals. Feels dirty maaannn 🤢

wubba lubba dub dub opening night sessionnnn!

Between the release of Weapons in cinemas and Alien: Earth on streaming less than a week apart, my sci-fi/horror boner is in no danger of receding any time soon.

I am one of maybe thousands of children who learned what perpetual motion is based on the nickname of a famous Rugby League player back in the 80's Can you imagine our societal wealth of wisdom if we also had the Thermal Dynamic Duo and Peter "The Quantum Mechanic" Sterling running out each week?

Over the years I've developed tinnitus from playing in bands & getting worse the older I get. I've started writing music again lately and I always seem to gravitate the scale back to a derivative of C. This morning I worked out that my tinnitus is a C note and it all suddenly makes a lot of sense.

Ah dear dear I needed that laugh today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBsP...

Oh my lord the aesthetic, art style, lighting and animation - all just perfect! Hints of old school Sierra/Lucasarts styled humour. Should have named the game "Made For Ben"

Going into the new Superman film I was completely disinterested and prepared for an absolute mess of a film. Coming out of the film I had done a complete 180. Gunn's biggest challenge was breaking the mould of the legacy DC film aesthetic. It was hopeful, loving and humorous. And it simply worked.

Every morning I get an appreciative hug from my girl. Don't ask me about my kids though 😉

Not sure if an AI referring to itself as "Mechahitler" is better or worse than a SecUnit naming itself "Murderbot".

People I haven't seen in 10+ years look like their parents now, aaahhhh.

Looked up Susanna Hoffs (from The Bangles) on Wikipedia and saw this absolutely wild sentence.

I've never watched a single episode of Tiny Chef, yet I would die for him after watching this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2uQ...

Just walked out of 28 Years Later (which was excellent by the way) and the first comment overheard from an audience member as I was walking out: "that zombie had a bigger dick than Rob's dad" ...and now I have questions.

Today a friend pointed out an old game dev blog of mine from 15 years ago that I had completely forgotten about. It has sent me down a rabbit hole of revisiting my old projects - many of which never saw the light of day One or two would be amazing to resurrect for a modern market if I had the time

The algorithm keeps feeding me articles about series that Netflix and Prime Video have cancelled - shows I've never heard of. Maybe - just maybe - the problem isn't quality related and more to do with lack of promotional effort and discoverability on the platform? You only get out what you put in.

The only use case for the old place...

Bernie clearly still cooks with gas. Dropping truth bombs and spitting fire better than anyone.

Just got the OneUI 7 update pushed to my phone and they have nailed the UX and UI. Impeccable timing with all the WWDC hate flying around the mobile dev community right now.

Mood right now...

it’s like watching Piss and Shit have a fight

I'm sorry but until we start seeing these decisions being enforced and the government held accountable in their failure to comply, these rulings aren't worth the paper they are printed on.

Mobland is very good. That is all.

For contrast I decided to revisit the Book of Boba Fett after the top notch #Andor finished up its run and it just confirmed to me that it really is night and day in terms of quality.

Well, shit. That Black Mirror episode "Eulogy" from season 7 absolutely destroyed me. Turned me into a disgusting sobbing mess.

Just another reminder for you horror gaming geeks to jump on this doco series. But be warned that my ugly mug might jump-scare you with fresh takes on various subjects. (For you Exmortis fans I chat about the games in Episode 4) Go go go! terrorbytesdoc.com

Not enough people acknowledge how top-tier of a punk rock one-two punch the first two Foo Fighter albums were. Regular contributors to the nostalgic soundtrack of my high school/university years.

Film review time! Ben's hot take edition... A couple of films I have watched these last few days...

ALL EPISODES OF TERRORBYTES ARE OUT NOW! Thank you so much to everyone who made this incredible series possible! Backers - check your emails for access to your digital copies and make sure to check your spam folders!

Not sure who the original artist is (I found this on the Star Wars sub-reddit) but this was too good to not repost on socials.

Rewatching all four seasons of The Man in the High Castle because... well... *gestures to everything*

Just had to explain to my kids that the orcas now have TWO (2) US fighter planes...

Can we please just ban fake trailers for upcoming films from YouTube? Supremely frustrating to get a minute into watching an "official teaser trailer" before realising all dialogue has been AI generated voiceover and there is no clear plot nor narrative context.

The Silver Surfer harbinger of this era.

Inject more Peta Credlin screenshots directly into my feed.

Font selection matters... especially when browsing supermarket shelves from a distance.

The dream.

It's where he stores his Hitler moustache when it is not happy hour.

This continues to be an evergreen post. Latest cooked opinion from Forbes is about the most recent Last of Us episode.
