My favorite film on this 4th day of #FantasticFest is MÁRAMA from New Zealand: an anti-colonialism film with a deliciously perverse gothic heart and an appropriately angry #Maori heroine who’s really good with a machete. #maramafilm

#FantasticFest secret screening no. 1 featuring pillow lips and soft pink nips. #silentnightdeadlynight #RohanCampbell

My favorite film on this 3rd day of #FantasticFest is the red hot & unapologetically horny queer Brazilian thriller, #NightStage in which private thrills put public personas at risk. This one doesn’t judge and never tsk-tsk’s the lead couple’s love of public sex and cruising spots. #MakeMoviesGay

Opening night of #FantasticFest : I talked to so many people (I never talk) that I started losing my voice and I stayed up so much later than normal that I think I might die. Oh, and I saw some films, some knights, and a dragon.

Imma be at FANTASTIC FEST starting Thursday — I’ve been the artist for @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social for the past 8 years, so hit me up if you need some design work! #hauntedddavidart #fantasticfest2025 #filmfestival #posterdesign #fantasticfest #filmfestival

Wishing the happiest of birthdays (and many more) to my beloved Queen of #Halloween , @therealelvira.bsky.social -- long may she reign. #haunteddavidart #ElviraMistressOfTheDark #QueenOfHalloween #horrorhost #boobtube #hostesswiththemostest #CassandraPeterson

Consider this an “end of summer” piece as I need to get working on Halloweeny autumnal art. #haunteddavidart #beefcake #supportqueerartists #queerart #whitesocks #shortshorts #jockstrap #gymfantasy #scent #queerartist

I honestly did not realize they were twins until they said so (like 25 minutes in). I thought he was just Uncle Karl’s longtime roommate.

“I wanted you to tell me about the dreams that you never would have dreamt.”

It’s been a week of highs and lows. (AKA “give it to me Italian style). #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched

Yesterday was my birthday and I am now so old that I can only be contacted via Ouija cake. (The letters are shaped like bones!!!) #birthday #birthdaycake #ouija #gothcake

Rant ahead: Can we stop demonizing gay sex, especially in films about gay relationships? People in love have sex. Period. You show it in straight films. This is pandering to an audience that won’t even see this film. Sex is healthy; sex is fun. It doesn’t lessen or cheapen anything, coward.

Because we survived another day in the hellscape, a treat flashback to Trent Reznor filming the "Closer" video -- formative perv shit!

Post a meme made by you

I hope that seeing Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth doing press for GDT's #FRANKENSTEIN isn't setting my hopes too high...

Happy #FrankensteinDay — it's Mary Shelley's 228th birthday and her monstrous creation still endures (and, naturally, I'm going to homoertoticize him). #haunteddavidart #maryshelley #horrorbeefcake #greaser #pompadour #frankenstein #supportqueerartists #queerart

TGIF -- celebrating the long Labor Day Weekend by wishing on was on a beach getaway with my partner in crime rather than sitting behind a desk counting the hours. #haunteddavidart #supportqueerart #queerartist #boybeach #herringcove #horrorbeefcake #supportqueerart #queerartist

My latest drawing is inspired by a fabulous gold & black robe from a J.C. Leyendecker painting as well as seeing y’all post about #MorganSpector (among other things). #haunteddavidart #beefcake #jcleyendecker #homoerotic #supportqueerartists #queerartist

Hear me out...

I know it's only Wednesday, but I have spent every day this week wanting to scream into the void until I pass out from lack of oxygen.

If you see this, post a bad woman you love

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Thinking about that absolutely obscene droplet of water on Omar Ayuso's upper lip. #omarayuso #eyebrows

Regretting that I cannot explode into a swarm of bats and disappear into the night sky (because I don't want to be working right now).

Today is the first day of August and y'all know that means we're celebrating the #13WeeksOfHalloween all up in here. Do whatever it takes to set the appropriately spooky mood. #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #halloween #supportqueerartists #queerart #witchhouse #queerartist #supportqueerart

Nicholas Hoult. That’s the post.

You ever go out someplace absolutely determined NOT to have a good time? Just me?

Okay, a Paul Mescal + Josh O'Connor film, but instead of it being another sad-sack "Brokeback" tale of heartbreak, it's an NC-17 film where they're mercilessly spree-killing bigots and fucking each other with abandon.

This is the ideal gay couple. You may not like it, but this is what peak faggotry looks like.

Very specific weekend genres.

Last night I dreamed that I was telling someone what it was like when I died.

Watched #BruceLabruce last night; caught a big screen matinee of #PinkNarcissus today. Dare I say that life is alright sometimes? #queercinema #supportqueerartists #onscreennudity #jamesbidgood #queergaze

HOT TAKE: If I’m watching a movie in the theater and someone starts talking or using their phone/camera, I should be able to kill them.

Goddammit, I live in a shitty state that's now requiring age verification for sites I've been enjoying for years. (now I know how Lovecraft's characters felt).

Hi #PortfolioDay , my name is David and I'm a professional graphic designer/illustrator who creates film festival art and spooky beefcake pinups. #haunteddavidart

It seems exhausting to keep doubling down on the hate just because people liked something that you personally didn't enjoy. (and I'm talking about general shit that doesn't hurt anyone).

Over the weekend, I repurposed my old sticker art into a vintage beefcake magazine cover to be used in the background of a new piece I'm working on where you'll never even notice it because I'm like that. #haunteddavidart #beefcake #supportqueerartists #queerartist #gaymagazine #supportqueerart

I love her.

Feeling awkward about my #LastFourWatched

Celebrating Friday with a refresh of my #Nightwing piece because wouldn’t it be cool if someone let me do a #comicbook cover? #haunteddavidart #supportqueerartists #queerartist #beefcake ##queerart #supportqueerart #jockstrap #dickgrayson

Grocery stores and the post office both need special shopping hours strictly for customers who know what the fuck they’re doing there.

Excited to show off my logo for @pleaserspunishers.bsky.social podcast, hosted by @caitlynofthenorth.bsky.social and @eversonpoe.bsky.social coming soon! #haunteddavidart #supportqueerartists #queerart #supportqueerartists #supportqueerart #queerartist #queerpodcast #queerhorror #queerhorrorpodcast

They just don't make them like this anymore. (I mean both the movie and the posters).

Well, well, well, if it isn’t officially summer. Happy Solstice, everyone. #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #supportqueerart #queerartist #gothsummer #queerart #boybeach #herringcove #supportqueerartists #summersolstice #artegay

Celebrating #PrideMonth with the boys in my own weird, spook-tinged way. Cheers. #haunteddavidart #beefcake #supportqueerart #supportqueerartists #queerartist #artegay #ItWasaDarkAndStormyNight #underwearparty

Sometimes I sit down and let out a big sigh that I never came up with my own Spidersona.

#PrideMonth be all about that YEARNING. #letterboxd #pride #supportqueerfilms #swallowed #pendasfen #folkhorror #bugcrush #CarterSmith #gaydirector

The energy I bring to Pride Month. #pride #pridemonth #supportqueerartists

In honor of #PrideMonth and the release of #GuillermoDelToro ‘s #Frankenstein trailer, here’s a beefy rendition of the titular #monster . #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #itsalive #supportqueerart #queerartist

#LastFourWatched for today’s #LetterboxdFriday All these four have in common is death. And maybe some minge.
