Made my first appearance on @rottentomatoes.com's "Critical Thinking" series to chat about all things Mike Flanagan! Double fun that I got to break down favorites and highlights with @pnemiroff.bsky.social, even if we can't agree on Doctor Sleep haha.

SCORCH MARKS is officially out now! I'm a proud producer of this apocalyptic queer horror that marks the feature film directorial debut of @brendohales.bsky.social. A truly remarkable cast & crew...and an undeniably sumptuous nightmare. October begins at the end! Watch now on @mydekkoo.bsky.social!
This is one of the dumbest, most fun pieces I’ve ever written. I want a The Garment of my own.

Had a double date with friends at this new, gimmicky sushi place. The rock and roll theme/gimmick was fine but the sushi was A+. Will happily go there again
For those who don’t know, Peter Cullen was also the first voice of Mario in the Donkey Kong segments of “Saturday Supercade”. Before Charles Martinet, before Lou Albano, before Chris Whathisname. It was a-him!

Earlier this week, I released my article on one of my favorite films of all-time, THE FLY, which celebrates its 40th anniversary this month. I tried to put a lot of love into this, so I thought I'd share it again: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/summer-of-mo... Open to free & paid subs.

This still doesn’t feel entirely real-and yet! Very happy and very grateful.
@monagle.bsky.social keep forgetting to ask you about the new Alien comic and if you’ve read it yet?
Went to another card show this weekend and even had the confidence to do a bit of haggling. Got some really fun cards but my favorite has to be this Oshawott. Lookit that face!
I may be a grumpy old man, but even I know the importance of video to a successful publication. That's why @donatobomb.bsky.social and I have started publishing our 30-minute @certifiedforgot.bsky.social episodes on YouTube with full video.

I'd gotten sick of hearing my own voice on this subject, but someone mentioned that it helped. So, here we are. I wrote about 5PM, the ever-dreaded weekend, and how they change meaning the second you lose your income. www.picketywitch.com/the-fear-of-...
The Fear of 5PM (and the Threat of the Weekend)
All that's left at 5PM is us, our thoughts, and our cursors. If you believe in the starving, depressed artists trope, you assume this is a boon. If you've been a starving, depressed (or in my case, an...

You are absolutely allowed to dislike a movie simply because it stars a well-known abuser. You are absolutely allowed to oppose giving well-known abusers awards, prestigious roles, and praise. That is not an unreasonable standard to have—it is a very reasonable one
Didn't think we'd ever cover a Criterion release on the podcast, didja? Welp, welcome back @theneonbanshee.bsky.social as this week's special guest, who brings us her latest sleepover favorite (no joke), Juraj Herz's THE CREMATOR. Oh the places this conversation goes...

“If we don’t have equal access to music, we risk not hearing from so many voices in the music world. Just think about how many people we’ve never gotten to hear from because they didn’t have access to music education.“ My latest for Style Weekly.

Alright, folks. I don’t do a whole lot of self-promotion but this warrants it, I think. Just won this award for my screenplay. I get a nifty cash award but also a grant for production and I get to attend an event where they’re doing a table read of the screenplay. Absolutely wild and awesome group
I’ve only been collecting a few months but pulling this today blew my whole mind. Lucky me!
"While DETENTION draws heavily from Japanese video games — its alternating versions of the school mirror the mixed-realities approach favored by the SILENT HILL franchise — its horrors are heavily rooted in Taiwanese history." Don't forget: DETENTION is the high that SILENT HILL fans are chasing.
How ‘Detention’ Became Cinema’s Greatest Video Game Adaptation
Taiwanese horror film 'Detention' is, by any meaningful evaluation, quite easily the best video game adaptation of all time.

Targets (1968) is a weirdly prescient movie about mass shootings before the US got really into mass shootings. It’s also about Boris Karloff.
Y’all, this current post holidays depression is hitting hard this year. Digging my way out seems really tough. Sorry to be a downer-just letting the one or two folks that read this know why I’m so quiet right now
Multi-faceted greatness, this is a top pic for holiday horror, slasher, and horror film. @donatobomb.bsky.social does a great job of appreciating this and the restoration. Not to mention all of the extras! Genuinely regretting getting the blu on sale and not waiting for this.
Beware Boiúnato@donatobomb.bsky.social · 10mo agoIf you give me the chance to write about BLACK CHRISTMAS (1974), I'm going to take it. In honor of the new Limited Edition 4K Steelbook from Scream Factory, I wrote about why Bob Clark's Christmas horror classic is still my favorite slasher film.
