"Death is just a word." The Grabber goes full Krueger in the upcoming #blackphone2 🩸Poster by me. šŸ˜‰šŸ¤˜ #digitalartwork #horrorart @scottderrickson.bsky.social @crobertcargill.bsky.social @digidimmy.bsky.social @universalstudiosfl.bsky.social

This is the world record for the longest filibuster, set in 1957, which Cory Booker will break in less than an hour:

Visuals from inside #TheGorge, now streaming on Apple+

I recently watched INCENDIES (2010), and that sealed the deal. For me, Denis Villenueve is the most exciting director in the world right now — SICARIO, PRISONERS, ARRIVAL, DUNE I & 2 — and my personal favorite, BLADE RUNNER 2049. His films are consistently both high art and high entertainment.

Don’t know how many times I’ve seen this, but it gets better with every viewing. A punk horror masterpiece.

Love this article — Gareth Edwards’ MONSTERS really does deserve the overused term ā€œunderratedā€. It’s amazing film (especially for the small budget) and yes, it’s a good follow-up if you enjoyed THE GORGE. screenrant.com/the-gorge-mo...

OFF BOOK EPISODE!! This is a goal-accomplished moment - as @scottderrickson.bsky.social comes to Talk Scared about his career in horror, his new movie, THE GORGE, and delights in the fact that one of his movies ruined my life! An absolute pleasure. All podcast platforms

#TheGorge is now @AppleTV’s biggest movie launch ever. deadline.com/2025/02/mile...

With his sci-fi romance THE GORGE out now, I’m grateful to @scottderrickson.bsky.social for taking the time to discuss his latest leap into the unknown and a career spent contemplating not only the existence of evil but the catharsis we seek in confronting it, for @thedailybeast.bsky.social.

You can also now stream the score to our film by the FUCKING INCREDIBLE Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Go back thirty years and tell that Cargill that one day he’d get to make a bananas big budget science fiction romance with music by Nine Inch Nails and he’d have called you a fucking liar. So cool.

My new film #TheGorge is now available on AppleTV+ It’s a romantic sci-fi action horror political spy thriller. A perfect date movie for tonight or any night over this Valentine’s Day weekend. Hope you enjoy!

The embargo is up so I can tell y'all that I had a blast with THE GORGE. It's romantic, it's funny, it's got '90s action vibes, it's got great monster designs. Just a hell of a popcorn flick experience from @scottderrickson.bsky.social, @crobertcargill.bsky.social and the whole crew.

Akira Kurosawa, Taylor Swift, and Cloverfield. Fantastically fun conversation with @scottderrickson.bsky.social about making his first drive-in movie, The Gorge (with a shout out to @crobertcargill.bsky.social in there). Arriving this week on Apple TV+ www.austinchronicle.com/daily/screen...

@scottderrickson.bsky.social’s #TheGorge is an entertaining character study that moves through horror, romance, sci-fi & action-adventure genres. Miles Teller & Anya Taylor-Joy share a flirty chemistry. Houses a solid Reznor & Ross score too! My review via @variety.com: variety.com/2025/film/re...

@scottderrickson.bsky.social & @crobertcargill.bsky.social's The Gorge left me Stupefied with just how many Risks it's willing to take. The Second Act of this film is so FRESH & UNEXPECTED that it will undoubtedly spark many questions and debate amongst the #HorrorCommunity for Years to come.

Watched The Gorge last night. @scottderrickson.bsky.social crafted a surprisingly moving, emotional, intense, and engaging sci-fi/action/drama. Can't wait for everyone to see it this coming weekend!

NEW EPISODE! You know @scottderrickson.bsky.social from his movies DOCTOR STRANGE, SINISTER, THE BLACK PHONE, and THE GORGE (streaming Friday); you may not know that he lives and breathes Kurosawa. He joins us on this week’s GUIDE FOR THE FILM FANATIC to talk RASHOMON: pod.link/1274489817/e...

While doing press this week for my new film THE GORGE, I’ve been describing it as a ā€œromantic science fiction action horror political thriller,ā€ which I think is pretty accurate. It premieres on Feb 14th on AppleTV+

THE GORGE is ziplining over Sunset Blvd, and I am GEEKING THE HECK OUT

For as long as I can remember, movies were the antidote.

Missing the good ol’ days when Hitler and Nazis were bad.

i simply cannot understand, on any level, how these folks are just bursting with hatred for their fellow human beings. so keen to be cruel. so gleefully eager to watch other people suffer and die. it is the most un-Christlike behavior imaginable.

The Scream is only one painting in a triptych — three paintings, same bridge: The Scream, Anxiety, Despair Edvard Munch Museum Oslo, Norway

PRESENCE is classic Soderbergh — elegant, evocative, artful and seemingly effortless. A beautiful film.

Black Phone 2 is wrapped. Couldn’t be more excited about what we’ve shot. More soon.

And that’s a wrap! Black Phone 2 is in the can! Time to pack up, go home, and get ready for post! Very excited for y’all to see what we’ve cooked up. Thanks again to our amazing cast and crew for 3 months of magic. Now to wait for y’all to find out how the hell we figured out to even make a second.

My favorite David Lynch film is Lost Highway. Saw it four times in the theater when released. The fourth time wasn’t to watch it, but to listen to the subversive sound design. Lynch is in the end crawl, credited as the sound designer.
