This looks SO GOOD.

The Tates just landed in the US and are still making money off their misogynistic material on Spotify. Petition here: chng.it/5gPjfrFQGG

If you see this, quote with a horror film you love.

Horror fans! This week our free panel 'What about the men? Masculininty in Horror Film' takes place on Wednesday 26th Feb, 7pm, online. Come and join us for some good chat. forms.office.com/pages/respon...

Finally gave in and watching 'The Conjuring 2' (I don't love these films but meh) and please can someone explain the random and extremely cringy Elvis singalong in the middle? What am I watching? What is happening?! WHY?

Remember to keep joy in your revolution. Community justice is also about the right to have spaces that *aren't* just concerned with survival.

Even though all our other idols are fucking losers, we still have Placebo 🖤

I will be part of a wonderful panel discussing 'Men and Masculinity in Horror'. Wednesday 26th February at 7pm on zoom - join us! I'll be speaking on contemporary horror film and why we need varied and more progressive representation of men, for men. #BAFTASS forms.office.com/pages/respon...

Watching 'Class of 1999' and I forgot what a masterpiece it is. Teenage gangs rule the US cities! Martial law! Drugs and uzis flood the streets! Pam Grier as a robot teacher! But all the kids still go to school...

They had no business giving 'Saw X' this much heart, I'm tearing up... This dude just needed to be looked after and given some damn respect!

Good morning.

I am DESPERATE for a Bioshock TV show. Cillian Murphy would make a fine Atlas. Seriously - forget your Fallouts and your endless Resident Evil retreads, give me RAPTURE. Would you kindly just do it, please.

done and dusted

The Prince Charles Cinema, for those who don't know, is something of a cultural landmark in London famous for showing a super eclectic roster of classic and contemporary films. Losing it would be a travesty. Please sign even if you're just a film fan! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/sa...

Loving Lola Young's 'Messy' - feels like an anthem for 2025. www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-k2...

My heart will forever be with Kimiko and Frenchie 🖤 Kinda surprised 'The Boys' doesn't get more love, it's so refreshingly different.

Saturday is treat day

You have two wolves inside of you. They will need to also buy tickets for the movie.

Was having a sweert nap when the emergency phone alert went off. Don't think my fight/flight system will ever recover.

It is Blue Monday but also National Cheese Lovers Day. BLUE CHEESE MONDAY!

'Fix their hearts or die'. One of the greatest quotes ever uttered. David Lynch gave the world so much joy, thrills, and confusion. He will be missed 🖤

Now. 'Woman of the Hour' had a lot of important things to say, and I love that none of those things were about that scumbag Alcala. What an awesome film. "What are girls for?"

Interesting. Almost as if all the bluster is just that.

I really hope 'Smile 2' gets its dues for the incredible music - even more than the first one, Cristóbal Tapia de Veer nailed the uncanny atmosphere. I've loved him since 'Utopia', please give this guy more horror work!

Enjoy a kale and ginger smoothie, a Vitamin D supplement, AND THEN an almond croissant. We can have it all x

You‘ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you? Oh no

Clarissa explained none of this.

Oof, Timothy Olyphant in 2010's 'The Crazies' delivers a killer line: "Don't ask me why I can't leave without my wife and I won't ask you why you can". The SASS on that!
