I STILL WANT THE SUSPIRIA PEACOCK

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha: The Legacy of ‘The Howling’ and One of Horror’s Most Unsung Femme Fatales I think it goes without saying that The Howling is one of the most celebrated werewolf movies of all time. Though it was released the same…

Still Howling after all these years!

I’m crying 🥹

I’ve taught my final class in this series! What an experience. I’ve learned so much about teaching and I’m eager to continue. Couldn’t have asked for a better group of intellectually curious film fans. Deeply grateful to @thecoolidge.bsky.social for this opportunity. 🙏✨

Getting home after a long day.

30 years ago, Katherine Bigelow made a sci-fi flop that changed her career for the better Strange Days is a noir-soaked science-fiction thriller set against a backdrop of racial tension, police brutality, sexual assault, and disruptive tech

It's about time Strange Days finally begins getting the retrospective love and respect it deserves. To me, it's the best pre-Matrix cyberpunk film other than Blade Runner and Robocop, and still better than most cyberpunk films made since.

This is why the inflatable costumes works so well -- it works the same way calling them "weird" or "creepy" did. It disrupts their narrative, and makes them seem pathetic rather than cool-and-cruel.

Dying to see Guillermo’s Frankenstein 😍

Heard someone mention the movie Sneakers so I’m going to have to watch Sneakers again. One of the all time great movie casts: Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, River Phoenix, Dan Ackroyd, Sir Ben Kingsley, James Earl Jones, Howard Tobolowsky. One of the great hacker heist movies

Bob Hoskins meets Princess Diana as a full size Roger Rabbit costumed character stands next to them.

I need to know what Bob Hoskins said to Princess Diana in front of Roger Rabbit at the London premiere of WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT (1988).

I just love this lil guy.

The guy, kind of a long angular face and beak of a nose and raggedy teeth

Every punk band got that one bassist who looks like the first zombie in NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD

Asking the video store employee how scary a movie is from 1 to naked bike ride

D'Angelo, R&B's reluctant icon, has died at 51 The expressive singer made just three albums, including his 1995 debut, Brown Sugar, but retreated from the public after each. He had been battling cancer, according to a statement from his family.

I really do hate this timeline.

Since it came out on this day (see last RT for context) it's worth noting that NEW NIGHTMARE only existed because Bob Shaye apologized and gave Wes retroactive pay for all the years they were milking Freddy without his involvement.

Holy shit

Feel good movie, anyone?

YouTube video by Hammer Exclusive Q&A from The Curse of Frankenstein Premiere Behind the Scenes with Hammer Experts

At the premiere of the restored version of The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), I was on a panel discussion with Lucy Bolton, Wayne Drew, Melvyn Hayes, Mike Muncer and David Pirie.

Red Rooms poster with red title text and black and white photo of Juliette Gariépy, the lead.

Red Rooms is a tense, evocative, subtle, and complex film that pairs well w movies like Anatomy of a Fall. Billed as horror due to events that happen offscreen, but more of a hybrid. Disturbing, dislocating, with stunning choreography and acting. (Def understand aversion to watching it, tjo.)

Update: The ISS has suffered a massive estradiol leak. All the astronauts are now women. NASA cannot reach them because they're too busy making out.

Helpful thread

have been thinking of rewatching THE FIRST PURGE in light of the federal paramilitaries trying to instigate violence and provoke a reaction from americans

Watched this while baking my quiche 🥰

Yay!!

It doesn’t get any better than Mario Bava and Val Lewton. A perfect combo.
