WHY IS IT NEVER HIM

Hyperventilating after seeing TEENAGE SEX AND DEATH AT CAMP MIASMA

I love when the movie theatre is FULL! People clapping and cheering!

IT ENDS turns its highway-to-nowhere premise into one of the year's best horror films. The horror becomes the realization that adulthood might just be another loop with no exit. Sustained dread, killer sound design, & a tough metaphor for your 20s. My review: themarmaladematinee.com/it-ends-revi...

‘It Ends’ Review: Stuck at the Exit Ramp of Adulthood

Alexander Ullom’s feature debut It Ends opens on silence: a dark forest, a car stopped, the beeping of doors left open, then we are pulled…

Went in expecting a summer dump. Got the best dinosaur movie since JURASSIC PARK, and with a strong family drama at its centre. A fun time at the movies. My review of THE END OF OAK STREET: themarmaladematinee.com/the-end-of-o...

‘The End of Oak Street’ Review: David Robert Mitchell’s Suburban Nightmare Is the Best Dinosaur…

There was no reason to expect much from The End of Oak Street. The trailer dropped just a couple of months ago without much fanfare…

I really hope that all of the people in my feeds who rail against gen-AI flyer art (and rightfully so) and are also horror fans, don’t fall prey to Ice Cream Man now that the reviews are pointing to its abundance of AI effects. Don’t be a contradiction, speak with your wallets here.

I started getting followed by some "film festivals" and "writing festivals" and thought "oh, these are cool!" Then I looked a little closer. They're all part of a network that preys on writers, charging us for reviews, and feeding our stuff into slop generators. So I made a list.👋🏻🖕🏻😠

Another #Fantasia has come & gone, & once again delivering a genre slate full of surprises. Fantasia was the first festival I ever covered & it remains one I always look forward to. With this edition now behind us, here are some of the films I saw that stood out: www.peliplat.com/en/article/1...

Excited to be back

Many stories are described as an odyssey, but there’s only one true odyssey. Nolan once again has created something staggering. With THE ODYSSEY, he reminds us of what we lose without this kind of epic storytelling.

This week I reviewed Apple TV+’s LUCKY. It’s a sleek, emotionally resonant crime thriller that rises above familiar cat-and-mouse beats. Strong performances, sharp craftsmanship, and a compelling father-daughter dynamic make this a satisfying thriller. Read here: nextbestpicture.com/lucky-review...

"Lucky" Review: Apple TV+'s New Crime Thriller Is A Worthy Showcase For Anya Taylor-Joy

THE STORY – “Lucky” centers on a young woman (Anya Taylor-Joy) who left behind the life of crime she was raised in years ago, but must now embrace her darker, criminal side one final time in a despera...

I was going to see a BLADE RUNNER and BLADE RUNNER 2049 double feature in IMAX but we got so much rain the theatre is flooded 😩

Before Pride Month ends, here are some underrated films I would recommend. All have been watched by 100k members or fewer on @letterboxd.social. Happy Watching! 🌈 boxd.it/VkEJu

Prime Day got me unfortunately

Finding out that GTA 6 isn’t getting a physical release has ruined my entire week

Finally saw OBSESSION and it really lived up to the hype. Inde Navarrette delivers one of the best performances of the year. It takes a lot to spook me with horror these days but she is absolutely *terrifying*.

My friends went to peru and brought me back this little crochet paddington 🥹

#PrideMonth watch: LEVITICUS turns queer shame into literal horror, using a shape-shifting monster as a metaphor for guilt & repression. Tense, emotional, & tender, it reclaims the "monster" narrative & argues that inflicting fear is the real evil. My review: www.peliplat.com/en/article/1...

'Leviticus' Review: Reclaiming the Shape of the Monster

Leviticus opens on a string of bad omens before either of its leads says a word. A pool shower clicks on with no one nea

Can’t go anywhere without being like i bet the backrooms are in there

If the academy was cool they’d nominate BACKROOMS for production design

I hope BACKROOMS and OBSESSION really opens the eyes of the big studios because their success is going against everything big studios think audiences want.
