If you've seen a lot of Japanese cinema, and you think you've seen it all, think again. Keep a close eye on Third Window Films for the latest titles from independent and low budget Japanese filmmakers.

Japan's jishu-eiga scene is really amazing. A place where films made for barely nothing can get proper theatrical runs in cinemas, allowing for many young voices to get a footing in the industry. While the majority of these films never leave Japan, we're happy to do our share.

The Paulette Goddard glamour.

Coming to the end of day one and reflecting on what great work @kte75.bsky.social and @cinefeline.bsky.social have done to put together a conference that is wide ranging in terms of discipline, cultures, and periods covered while also designing panels that are coherent and compelling. Great day one!

Matt Denny@mattdenny.bsky.social · last yr.

It is Youth and Horror time! I am not presenting anything so looking forward for the opportunity to just enjoy learning new things. Great range of papers on the programme and hopefully a chance to catch up with some folks in the horror studies community
