"People die around #TheMonkey in these insane ways. Oh—people died around *me* in these insane ways." Oz Perkins is the son of "Psycho" star Anthony Perkins and model & photographer Benny Berenson, who both lost their lives in terrible ways. We talked about finding dark humor in the unthinkable:

One of my fave bits in my new interview with Theo James & Osgood Perkins for THE MONKEY- "Maika Monroe had a hard time with me on Longlegs because I laughed through most of her scenes, to be honest with you. I just found that character to be so adorable and hilarious."

Every horror brand - Fango, Bloody Disgusting, Dread, Rue Morgue, HorrorHound, Shudder, Screambox - is curated by humans. That’s always been rad but never thought it would one day be literally radical

Hey you, wanna make your friends envious? Buy a Jade Daniels Candle on thatnerdchick.com ALL of the proceeds from your purchase of it go to Blackfeet Community College. Also, as if you needed more incentive, @sgj.bsky.social helped me design these so you know it's TRULY Jade Daniels approved.

Trouble Every Day auteur Claire Denis is returning to the world of cannibalism with THE SOAP MAKER, a remake of a 1977 cult film based on an Italian serial killer:

Wait wait wait, you mean to tell me that Melanie Griffith starred as a sex worker with a little butt tattoo in the exact same spot in two back to back 80s thrillers?? This question inspired by revisiting BODY DOUBLE on Criterion Channel then throwing on a 1st watch of FEAR CITY after.

Pre-ordered!

Movie that currently seems available to stream only on Kanopy (but also on VOD): CALIGULA: The Ultimate Cut. Seems like a good Sunday kind of watch? 😜

Contractually obligated "Hey, it's Saturday, y'all. Did I mention I have a new movie out, streaming exclusively on Apple+? Called THE GORGE? I did? Great! We'd love if you watched it!" post.

I just need you all to know that the Tillamook Dubliner cheese sticks are a god tier snack.

Marina De Van's notorious IN MY SKIN (2002) now on blu, scanned from the original camera negatives for the first time ever and featuring extras by @redroomrantings.bsky.social @horrornonna.com @alexwest.bsky.social @necromandrea.bsky.social + author of The Monstrous-Feminine herself, Barbara Creed!

What do you mean, today is not Friday? 😫

Feels weird that I have to even say this, but if you're going to give a glowing review of your friend/editor/family's film, you should at the very least disclose that personal connection.

Out today on 4K: Scream Factory's THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER Collector's Edition, loaded with special features including an audio commentary by me! Treat yourself.

And big reminder: Kanopy (and Hoopla or any other streaming service your library provides) COSTS your library money. Sometimes a lot of money!! So if you’re a Kanopy user, support your library! Make sure they’re well funded!

Not sure we give Kanopy enough credit for having such a great, expansive catalog filled with new releases and deep cuts alike, for free via library card - yes, this is another reminder to support your library.

This thread explains what we in physical goods are facing as a result of the tariffs being forced upon foreign countries better than I could ever have. If you think it won’t affect you, it will. I can’t imagine any person that won’t feel some sort of ripple effect from this, even the wealthy.

Thank you @hauntedmeg.bsky.social! We love JASON LIVES in this family. bloody-disgusting.com/interviews/3...

This news makes me so happy. Huge fan of this filmmaking duo.

Thank you to Sony Pictures for keeping me safe this Valentine’s Day with the most unexpected tool to ward off the #HeartEyesMovie killer. It's perfect, hahaha. It's a bit NSFW, so only sharing a piece of what's inside the box. Iykyk. Buzz buzz. 🐰😂

Anyway, I am, once again, looking for a job. In the meantime, I am back on the freelance grind and will be sending out pitches for work! My social media profiles have all now been updated and include a way to reach me. Don't be a stranger.

The Jurassic Park nerd is reporting for duty 🫡 Which evil genetics corporation is Martin Krebs working for? What's the real goal of the DNA? Which one of the 5 Deaths are they going to? I have some concrete answers on Jurassic World Rebirth and many, many theories. www.ign.com/articles/jur...

I used a folded up tissue to rescue a tiny spiderling that was struggling to climb out of my sink. But it didn't want to leave the tissue, so I left it on the counter to find its way when ready. It's been days though, and the spiderling has gotten cozy in there. So I think I just have a new pet.

The original mask concept for HEART EYES' killer would've made for a very different experience. The screenwriters behind this slasher reveal what their killer might have looked like, how that evolved, and talk creative slasher kills in a new interview:

Relating something fierce to John Trent today as IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS turns 30. We all read Sutter Cane at this point.

This week’s streaming picks are dedicated to occult horror movies that unsettle with haunting depictions of secret societies, sects, and supernatural terror. And where to watch: bloody-disgusting.com/movie/385289...
