“I loved and supported Aaron as my son, and now I love and support Airyn as my daughter. I don’t know what the big deal is . . . I love all my children.” Robert De Niro (81)

While the final season of 'You' may not satisfy all its fans, it's an admirable enough send-off for the hit Netflix series. Read Cass Clarke's review on Dread Central.

M&M is here & already cooler than me

Ok hear me out… what if John Wick 5 is the Constantine sequel we didn’t know we needed??? Dante-themed set pieces. Devil’s Advocate callbacks. Connie Nielsen can punch someone again. Charlize is an Old Guard of hell. Let’s fight John’s way back to the mortal realm

This is a very on-brand must-know/must-see pop culture byte for me.

How did no one tell me that the Equalizer is a Denzel horror movie supporting worker rights for Home Depot & sex workers??? Mad at you all

Watching The White Lotus S3 is an EXPERIENCE for me because my college ex bf moved to Thailand after I broke his heart (arguably, deserved - albeit, savage) to find himself & my OTHER ex turned drinking buddy followed & now they’re besties there in beach polos & married (tho sadly not to each other)

I swear I’m gonna shut up at some point today BUT I’m fucking proud of this new thing over at @dreadcentral.bsky.social. Huge thanks to @cassclarke.bsky.social for listening to my podcasts and alerting me that I said something interesting in my tipsy rants. www.dreadcentral.com/editorials/5...

Been being inspired lately by my tens of teenagers & them realizing “oh, Cass has written before…” & wanna make some 2025 goals for myself to work on & believe in myself more…here goes! Manifesting being a cool horror writer momma…

hard to believe that our public institutions are suddenly behaving in a manner that many many people have been warning is the logical endpoint of a capitalist government for a hundred years

Baking a baby & a book idea. Very curious — any horror filmmakers who have been pregnant before interested in speaking with me about their experience? “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” is long overdue for a counter culture update & modern day survival guide…

Hate self promo , but super proud of T Blockers, a trans hangout/horror film I made when I was 17 w no money that played my dream festivals & is now a SHUDDER exclusive & on Bluray. A personal film that feels scarily more relevant now then when we shot it, word of mouth is everything 🥹

Yellowjackets 🐝🐝🐝 — damn. Such a great start. Foaming at the mouth. Sharpening pick axes. Calling all deities for more 🤤

Black History month is here!! Looking for some horror movie/TV recs made by Black filmmakers &/or starring Black leads??? Let’s gooooo -HIS HOUSE -VAMPIRES VS. THE BRONX -INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (tv show) -SISSY -MA (still needs a franchise plz) -GOOD MADAM -NANNY -THE BLACKENING

I’m gonna be a great parent. Adding this to their bookshelf in the nursery — got those contrast colors!! 😂

Since the current administration wants to use DEI to peddle racism, let’s remember that white women benefited the most from those programs. And once again, they overwhelming voted against themselves. www.levelman.com/why-white-wo...

This is so goddamn funny

THELMA!!! Easily one of the best comedies in the last decades. Best comedy this year too.

Everything I’m hearing about PRESENCE makes me think it’s giving LAKE MUNGO vibes or possibly THE HOUSE AT THE END OF TIME & I’m here for either/both/everything.

Smile 2 ruined me being able to gulp down my 32 oz water bottle in one long drink without commentary

Ok, I spent my morning with my spouse learning what is a “hot cross buns” song & it just gets funnier each time I hear it… I’m not gonna be allowed at recitals because I can’t stop laughing at the idea of a choir of kids talking about 🍑🍑🍑… challah bread is right there! Crossed & twisted & delicious

I’m sorry but I just saw Dev Patel twist a dagger 🗡️ into a villain’s neck with his teeth 🥵🥵🥵 I slept on MONKEY MAN for too long. Not perfect, has some pacing issues, but gorgeous fights (staging works, inventive environmental awareness, & blend of martial arts styles) & I want more, Dev!!!

So here's what's cool about my job: Yesterday morning I said, "We really ought to have TWIN PEAKS available." So then a bunch of people scrambled, worked really hard, and now you can watch every episode of David Lynch & Mark Frost's original series for free on Pluto TV: pluto.tv/us/on-demand...

Well, it might be time I finally hit play on THE FIRST OMEN… if I can watch this, then I truly know I’m ready to start researching “ways baby could exit my body in the coming month(s)…”

Pregnancy is wild because your 4AM thoughts are next level. Last night, me to myself: Member when your 8th grade gym teacher made RHODE ISLAND teens learn line dancing to Madonna’s “Hey, Mr. DJ…” song. Was she a gay all along? What a missed opp…
