I just watched Eli Roth’s Ice Cream Man. You should not. This is a terrible, mean spirited, no fun, badly made donkey fart of a cinematic experience. Go watch something worthwhile instead. Anything but watch this. Serious worst film of 2026 contender. #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/fEeY41

A ½ review of Ice Cream Man (2026)

This is my first Eli Roth film and, God willing, my last. On a whim I decided to try the Scream Unseen screening at my local Odeon, hoping that it would be something like Leviticus or something furthe...

I first read it in the @blpublishing.bsky.social anthology of apocalyptic stories. Easily the one that stuck with me the most, absolutely haunting stuff. Happy Soft Rains Day!

Happy There Will Come Soft Rains Day to all who celebrate!

My favourite independent #physicalmedia group is currently @refusefilms.bsky.social This is a company that really cares about the films that it’s releasing. For their Troma collection I haven’t seen this amount of extras since the early days of DVD. Plus it’s the best place for really indie film. 📀

It’s #lastfourwatched time! First I had some John Carpenter comfort food with one of his most under appreciated films, with a delightfully Nigel Kneal style story and hobo Alice Cooper. Then a triple bill of obscure Sammo Hung films, two of which I hadn’t heard about before. #filmsky #Letterboxd

I’ve only just finished #CineRedis26 and another film festival starts singing its siren song. I mean, gooey kiwi alien sex body horror comedy and Guy Maddin? Am I supposed to be able to resist that?

My last film of @cineredis.bsky.social is the reconstruction of Erich von Stromheim’s original vision of Queen Kelly. And with an intro by @pamhutch.bsky.social who literally wrote the book on this film I’m ending this year’s fest in style. 😁 #filmsky #Letterboxd #CineRedis26 boxd.it/fs4GA1

A ★★★★½ review of Queen Kelly (1929)

My final film of Cinema Rediscovered 2026 has me jumping on a bus to travel all the way to the lovely streets of Clevedon and their wonderfully preserved old style Curzon Cinema. You know a cinema is ...

Just came back from my final film of @cineredis.bsky.social which had me jumping on a bus to Clevedon and their amazing Curzon Cinema. Which is one of the prettiest cinemas in the West Country. 🧵 #CineRedis26

First film of the fourth day of #CineRedis26 is the absolutely perfect Matinee by Joe Dante. With an actual appearance by MANT! themselves! Thank you @cineredis.bsky.social for helping me discover what has instantly become one of my all time favourite films.

Important #CineRedis26 update: I did it! Watched every one! Officially the most films I’ve watched at The Watershed in a single day. Yay for cinema!

Third day at #CineRedis26 and I’ve got SIX films booked today? Is this the day I discover I’m kino Icarus and I’ve gotten too close to the sun?

One of the most interesting deep cuts of #CineRedis26 is this hyper obscure film by South Korea’s first female director, Park Nam-ok. Not even ten minutes of missing footage can stop this being a fascinating look into post war South Korean society. boxd.it/fpECoF

A ★★★½ review of The Widow (1955)

Something I really love about Cinema Rediscovered is that amongst the classics back on the big screen they’ll also put on some super rare deep cuts for the dedicated film lover. Like this melodrama fr...

Got introduced to the films of Satyajit Ray thanks to #CineRedis26 Best described as a Sometimes Dudes Don’t Rock film this really gets into the entitlement of certain types of guys have when dealing with anyone else. #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/fpr90j

A ★★★★ review of Days and Nights in the Forest (1970)

My first Satyajit Ray film thanks to Cinema Rediscovered. And as well as directing it he also wrote the script and did the wonderful soundtrack. Which makes him the John Carpenter of Indian art house ...

Another addition to my collection of film festival tee shirts thanks to @cineredis.bsky.social Danger: Diabolik was a great opener for the festival so it’s an obvious choice to adorn the fest’s apparel. Plus I’ve wanted apparel based to show my love of Mario Bava for a while now. #cineredis26

Third day at #CineRedis26 and I’ve got SIX films booked today? Is this the day I discover I’m kino Icarus and I’ve gotten too close to the sun?

Another masterpiece discovered by me at #CineRedis26 Films about films can be tricky to pull off but Ming-liang makes it about the experience of film and makes a heartfelt masterpiece. Plus seeing it for the first time in the cinema is the best thing possible. #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/foFoXJ

A ★★★★★ review of Goodbye, Dragon Inn (2003)

First Tsai Ming-liang film, seen in a cinema thanks to Cinema Rediscovered which is the only proper way to see this film for the first time. This is the film that inspired the descriptor ’slow cinema’...

Ever since I saw Chess of the Wind I’ve been wanting to see more Farsi language horror. Looks like this could be just what I need.

Horror Lex®@horrorlex.bsky.social · 2w ago

Farsi baladi? Max Bledstein's "Contemporary Iranian Horror Cinema" looks to the Persian provocateurs behind FISH & CAT, GIRL'S DOMITORY, and PARKWAY. Now out from @universitypress.cambridge.org www.cambridge.org/us/universit...

Hey @cineredis.bsky.social what was the name of the guy who did the great intro to the Sacrifice screening? I want to give him a shout out in my Letterboxd review but I forgot to remember it! 😢

Second film of #CineRedis26 is my first ever Andrei Tarkovsky film! Is a long, deliberately paced film the best thing to watch right after breakfast? I say yes. Also the new restoration looks absolutely amazing. #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/fon6Fh

A ★★★★½ review of Nostalgia (1983)

Day two of Cinema Rediscovered and I’m starting with an early morning double bill of Andrei Tarkovsky’s last two works. Now a deliberately paced two hour meditation might not be everyone’s idea of ear...

As I get ready for the full day of #CineRedis26 here’s by review of Danger: Diabolik that opened to a sold out crowd yesterday. The restoration looks great, and we had a wonderful video intro by superfan Edgar Wright. On to day two! #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/fnPGzr

A ★★★★½ review of Danger: Diabolik (1968)

The first film of Cinema Rediscovered 2026 is a glorious pop art phantasmagoria of daring deeds, unpredictable plans and the sexiest criminals you will ever see. Pre film there was a video intro by Ed...

Only one more day till @cineredis.bsky.social is back. I’ve got my tickets to 18(!) amazing films. Doing half hard to see world cinema deep cuts, half big fun times. What I’m really looking forward to is Tarkovsky, Joe Dante and Party Girl Productions! boxd.it/UL0OE

What I’m watching at Cinema Rediscovered 2026

Judging from the sounds coming from the pub across the road from me Argentina has just lost the World Cup.

It’s Friday so it’s time for #lastfourwatched This week it’s been a Sam Neill memorial watch week. Mostly his horror output but also a wonderful, heartfelt comedy. The guy always brought such a presence to whatever role he was in. Plus he has quite the unique scream! #filmsky #Letterboxd

Belated shout out to @wshed.bsky.social for their Wong Kar-wai weekend where I was finally able to get into this guy’s amazing films. I marathoned four features on Saturday and it was one of the best times I’ve had in a cinema for ages. Please do more director weekenders.

I’ve got a list on #Letterboxd of all the films I’ve seen at @wshed.bsky.social and the other weekend it crossed 200 entries. Since The Watershed is one of my favourite places in Bristol I thought I’d share some details from the list with you all. 🧵 boxd.it/LFYum

I’ve gotten the lineup to this year’s @cineredis.bsky.social and I have serious problems picking my Sat + Sun films. Josie and the Pussycats vs Queen Kelly Taxi Driver vs Ghost World Miss the end of Prince Achmed to get the bus to the Curzon instead? Is there a way to be in two places at once?

hey everyone wanna see what a manufactured hate campaign is shaped like???

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

It’s #lastfourfriday We have a double bill that I watched at a fundraiser for families in Gaza, a documentary and a Wes Anderson esque tale about Palestinian life through the years. Plus Juggalos and Ben Wheatley doing action dad. Both with surprise trans representation. #filmsky #letterboxd

#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched #filmsky #tvsky only watched one film this week, the Martin Short doc apart from that I watched the 3 hour Jiminy Glick compilation on youtube and finished a couple of tv series

I’m pretty sure that for me it would be X-Men: The Last Stand. At the time I was a massive X-comics fan and I adored the previous film in the series. So realising about halfway through that this wasn’t very good was such a deflating moment for me.

Ryan Godfrey@ryangodfrey.com · 3mo ago

Inspired by Sean’s memory of the 1987 MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, what was the movie you saw as a kid that made you realize it was possible for movies to be bad? For me I think it was THE ICE PIRATES (1984).

Just saw Obsession. This Curry Barker guy is going to go places. But the lead performances are the MVP. Absolutely one of the best made horror films of 2026. And not one that resorts to cheap tricks, just ratcheting tension and uncomfortable questions. #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/en0YHj

A ★★★★½ review of Obsession (2025)

I did not have ‘absolutely terrifying frowny face’ on my 2026 horror bingo card. But yeah, this is absolutely one of the best horror films of 2026. I'm not big into YouTube creators so Curry Barker ha...

It’s time for #lastfourwatched Finally started that Evil Dead series rewatch to prep for Evil Dead Burn. The first is peak micro budget indie horror, II is still supreme and Army is just so much fun. Also is it weird to have David Cronenberg as cinematic comfort food? #filmsky #Letterboxd

Saw my first Damien McCarthy feature the other night, and it really hit with my folk horror loving self. On the strength of Hokum I think I’m going to have to see the rest of his filmography. #filmsky #Letterboxd boxd.it/ecYpBr
