Didn’t make it to #SXSW, but did get a chance to see @gerardjohnson.bsky.social’s new housing crisis thriller ODYSSEY virtually, and when I say Polly Maberly’s on some real queen shit in this one? I mean it. collider.com/odyssey-movi...

spent most of today in the car so i haven’t been able to talk about it, but if nish kumar’s touring near you p l e a s e go to see him, if only to hear the phrase “beefed himself into a coma,” which i will now be repeating for the rest of time

Fangoria is hiring a brand new Director Marketing! I was their Director of Marketing from 2005-2015, & it is an incredibly fun and rewarding position. And the team is just wonderful! Love horror movies? Love marketing and social media? Here is the link to apply- jobs.fangoria.com/director-of-...

Don’t even need to see it to know @bigfinish.bsky.social did Time Tunnel better 🤷🏻‍♀️

Why is it that I only ever have good pitch ideas literal months before or after they’ll be relevant enough to actually get published?

Absolutely begging for something to rescue me from this valley of mid-tier experiences.

With A Thousand Blows out on Hulu today, now seems like the time to share the best @girlies4mcgann.bsky.social Easter egg I’ve ever snuck into a review.

caught covid in california right before my birthday, send movie recs for my sickbed

Post #gally1 welcome home committee (aka the only one still awake at this hour) is excited to see me.

End of travel day update: a sincere and exhausted fuck you to Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.

Threw Jeopardy on for the flight home and stumbled across the most appropriate clue possible. #gally1

Didn’t take nearly enough photos, but baby’s first #gally1 was more than I could ever have hoped for. I miss you all and your wonderful faces already!!

Big shout to @bigfinish.bsky.social for making us lose our absolute gotdamn minds at 10:30 in the morning by announcing NINE AND ROSE TOGETHER ON AUDIO BABEY #gally1

Maybe my favorite moment of #gally1 so far: listening to the very eloquent and smart-looking Miles Richardson drop a truly hilarious f-bomb at the newcomers panel.

So could we?? 👀😍🎥

finally finished scarlet empress on the flight to gally

being delayed two hours on my last leg to #gally1 = catching up on off-menu and writing fanfiction over the sit down dinner i didn’t think i was going to get to have

if i have to see one more thing about that accursed jamie lloyd production of much ado i think I might actually have a stroke where is the CHARACTER

shoutout to my best friend who, when i was bitching about the misogynist way this book paints iris wildthyme and her relationship with eight, sent me this in response:

trying to read eighth doctor adventures for podcast reasons, aka enacting psychological torture on yourself for the sake of a hobby

Extremely mixed bag week, but the stuff that hit really hit.

“This release contains adult material” Are we about to get body horror Doctor Who with Paul and Reece?? Because if so you will NEVER hear the end of it from me.

normal conversation to have watching classic who: “is that someone i’m supposed to know?” “yeah, that’s mike yates.” “cool, cause i just looked at him and saw nothing but elis james.” “does that make benton john robins?”

Somehow managed this with another Criterion title/awards show combo, this time with the Grammys and Black Narcissus. God bless.

updated my letterboxd four faves for the new year and tell me why i feel GUILTY changing 3/4 spots out

I should note that my mother, who’s worked as a nurse for nearly forty years and in Pittsburgh hospitals for thirty of those, couldn’t even make it through 20 minutes of #ThePitt weeks after I used her as a reference for this review.

With just under two weeks until the big event, we wanted to make it socials official that we'll be at this year's @gallifreyone.bsky.social! We'll have lots of ribbons to give out, so let us know if you’re going!

Dear Baby Jesus, please give me the confidence of a man driving a Cybertruck convinced that none of us in this intersection are making fun of him.

The coolest thing I learned in writing this? That the first Frankenstein movie wasn’t the James Whale film, but a one-reeler silent film from 1910 that’s far more accurate to the book, which you can watch in full on YouTube.

may have forgotten my mat BUT my instructor did make me feel like i was in an episode of annika by playing norwegian funeral chants so all is well

you can tell the state of my sanity by the fact that i managed to forget my mat — the only thing i actually need for the workout — on my way to yoga

God this is such a great movie. There's a giant monster worm. It's weird, blasphemous, deeply horny folk horror that doesn't take itself too seriously. Surreal. Peter Capaldi cuts a snake-man in half with a longsword.

let’s GO
