I LOVE it! One of those insane films that ups the ante with every scene.

Romance Reads for Every Taste They say there's someone out there for everyone...

There's so much more to romance than your mom's paperback bodice rippers (though those are abundant and SO fun to read).

For #ReadaRomanceMonth, I put together a list of cross-genre spice for every reader!

'Weapons' Review: Equal Parts Terror and Humor, All Unsettling Zach Cregger's latest toys with its audience, to truly unhinged ends.

The WTF factor in #Weapons is really what makes it.

'Weapons' Review: Equal Parts Terror and Humor, All Unsettling Zach Cregger's latest toys with its audience, to truly unhinged ends.

WEAPONS is a film that understands, at the molecular level, what it is to be uncomfortable, how that discomfort turns to tension, and where tension snaps into terror and hysteria.

I dug it.

Post a female character you love 💗

Samara Weaving as Grace Le Domas

TASTE!

Cinema belongs to HER, this year. Period.

#juliagarner #filmsky

It is an absolute delight to be completely taken surprise by a film. WEAPONS was totally unexpected, in every way. In its arsenal: unease, uncertainty, and unpredictable twists.

'King of the Hill' Season 14 Review: Crowning Revival Royalty It's good to be back in Arlen. Boy, I tell you hwat.

KING OF THE HILL has returned after 15 long years. This mega-fan, serial rerun-watcher, and self-identified Hank Sun-Dale Rising was not only satiated, but thrilled!

THE BEWITCHING by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

Horror
In a sentence: Forces of darkness torment three women, across three generations.

Moody and sharp. Silvia Moreno-Garcia has outdone herself with this macabre mystery. Darkness that wraps around you, like velvet.

I went into the #KingoftheHill revival with the highest of expectations (series super fan that I am) -- and was blown away. THIS is how you evolve a property.

Fantasia Fest 2025: 'Hellcat' Review A disarming, refreshed look at one of horror's most popular subgenres.

From @fantasiafestival.com: #Hellcat completely defies expectations! It flips genre conventions on its head to tease out a horror that is more thriller than gore-fest.

LET'S GOOOOOOOO

Summer of Slasher: 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' (1997) vs 'Scream' (1996) Movies don't create psychos, movies just make psychos subject to more tropes.

Before I get to my review of the #IKnowWhatYouDidLastSummer legacy sequel, I'm taking a look back on 1996 and 1997. SCREAM versus the OG. Two films so similar, but held in much different esteem.
