I couldn't be prouder to have an essay included in the first beautiful book from The Nottingham Horror Collective. As a huge fan of their zines, to have been asked to submit for this massive independent publishing project is a joy and an honour. 📚 DEAD PRETTY: BEAUTY IN THE HORROR GENRE

ICYMI Hammer Time recently entered the 1970s with our first film of the decade: TASTE THE BLOOD OF DRACULA. And it's a banger! 🎧 part of @evolutionofhorror.bsky.social

the problem with a Hammer Horror addiction is that you're increasingly susceptible to Peter Cushing's gorgeousness and athleticism. (thank god this one's not got the rolled up sleeves in it. No-one is prepared for Curse of Frankenstein.) I blame @bunnydarke.bsky.social for enabling me in this.
