Seattle is back in the movies! Or at least a version of it is. In my latest for @bloody-disgusting.com I wrote about what a recent crop of horror movies get right and wrong about the Emerald City and why I love them anyway.

Really cool Valentine’s Day piece from @brianwaves42.bsky.social, in which he pens a love letter to horror's fictional vision of Seattle:

"Can you let go of what makes your heart soar if it's something that will inevitably destroy you?"

Keep your eyes peeled for this Friday’s episode…

I discovered this movie a couple years ago and it is an absolute delight. Well worth adding to your Christmas season rotation.

Writers Who Use AI Are Not Real Writers Dorothy Parker famously (but probably not really) said, “I hate to write, but I love having written,” which is a sentiment I don’t largely understand or agree with in the broader …

Read that article about the """writer""" generating 200 books a year with AI and needless to say, I had THOUGHTS

Scene from A Mighty Wind of a man and woman singing to each other.

Watched ‘A Mighty Wind’ for family movie night and after this scene…I am definitely not okay. 😢

Spines of the paperback books of The Omen I-IV

When I got home I discovered that I now have the complete set! I knew I had the first one but had forgotten about II and III.

Does this mean I have too many books?

No. No it does not.

I had the immense pleasure of returning to @26mfhpod.bsky.social along with brilliant guests Heather Drain + Paul G. to celebrate the legacy of the late great Udo Kier. Tune in to join the lovefest!

Paperback book—The Omen IV: Armageddon 2000

Back cover of the book The Omen IV

A surprising find from the used bookstore today—The Omen IV: Armageddon 2000. Apparently it’s a direct sequel to The Final Conflict but has nothing to do with the tv movie from the 90s. I am intrigued!

I had a great time with it! Not a very full theater but everyone who was there seemed really into it. Including laughing at some of the stuff I was certain only people like me would find funny.

‘American Gothic’ – Revisiting the Underseen Sam Raimi-Produced ’90s Horror Series While the film side of horror experienced a rough patch in the 1990s, prior to the renaissance, things looked hopeful on the television front. If nothing else, horror was simply more present on TV. Of...

Turned in my 500th article for @bloody-disgusting.com:

It's a revisit to Trinity, South Carolina, in the Sam Raimi-produced and Shaun Cassidy-created horror TV series, AMERICAN GOTHIC (1995). Starred Lucas Black, Gary Cole, Paige Turco & Jake Weber. An underseen, great show.

With your dive into silent movies lately, this would be a perfect time to check it out! A big element is just the dawn of the new medium and how movies were made at the time.

If it’s someone’s birthday weekend they get to choose the movie for family movie night. Bethany always picks her favorite movie. And her current favorite movie is…The Big Lebowski. I approve.

Has heaven shown you too much?

Our latest episode is now available on THE PROPHECY (1995). We discuss angel fashion, that stacked cast, Bible fan fiction, and of course Christopher Walken. (Link in comments)

So excited to see this in the big screen!

The Prophecy is such a wild movie. We had a great time digging into this most 90s of 90s movies!

Escaping reality for a bit in my sanctuary and another classic on the big screen.

I love so many of Catherine O’Hara’s performances but I think this is the one that will always be my favorite. #RIP

This article means a lot to me, and to be able to write it, share it, and have it published means the world to me.

‘Send Help’ Review – Sam Raimi Is Back In Fine Splatstick Form In Survival Thriller Comedy Few directors have as much fun splattering their cast with as much goop and viscera as possible as director Sam Raimi. One can practically picture the amused filmmaker guffawing behind the camera in p...

SEND HELP is full of vibrant personality, packed with all of Sam Raimi's signatures. It’s a raucous, goopy good time at the movies. Read the full Bloody Disgusting review: bloody-disgusting.com/reviews/3931...

Who Was at the ‘Melania’ Premiere?

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT: Trump takes over the Kennedy Center, illegally slaps his name on it, and uses the venue to premiere a film about his wife—a film, directed by an accused rapist, that is a gift from the founder of Amazon, who wants to avoid regulation and is firing a fuckton of reporters.
