Still kicking myself that this is my life. Anatomy of a Horror Film started last week, and I've finally fulfilled my dream of talking loudly about horror films for a living. Had to begin this journey talking about one of the all time best female friendship films, The Descent!

Lots of film-y stuff happening this month!

Today's the day! Join @SaffronAsteria and I later today to discuss The Descent! 9pm U.K./3pm CST

Anatomy of a Horror Film is here! Join @SaffronAsteria and me tomorrow to discuss The Descent! youtube.com/live/SRlJC5e...

Can't wait to regale @saffronasteria with the story of me watching my first ever horror film...

Really excited to sink my teeth into dissecting The Descent! 10th August, 9pm BST!

Any indie horror books I may have missed and need to catch up on?

Trying to be much more intentional in what films I watch, so if you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them! I specialise in analysing horror films, and would love more non-US centric gems to discover.

Spent the day immersing myself in culture in Islington yesterday. Firstly, saw Under The Shadow at the @AlmeidaTheatre, an incredible film turned into a play, before seeing some fantastic comedians at @angelcomedy. I'm so lucky to live in London.

Really excited to be part of this incredible anthology, can't wait for the Kickstarter to go live! www.kickstarter.com/projects/rvb...
