I suspect those Xmas plunges are more dangerous than a big hungry fish.

I think I remember it was December Boxing Day that the UK release happened. Just in time for the crazy cold Boxing Day dips across the country.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Don't forget, MAYHEM are screening DEMONS at Broadway Cinema's first ever ALL-NIGHTER... 21/22 June.

Tickets: www.broadway.org.uk/whats-on/hor...

‘Space travel is queer’: the unstoppable film-maker skewering Bezos and Musk’s macho fantasies She founded Nasa’s orchestra and has bounced heartbeats off the moon. Now Nelly Ben Hayoun-Stépanian has made a hilarious film taking issue with the tech bros’ dreams of celestial conquest

In Ben Hayoun-Stépanian’s mind, space exploration forces us to reimagine everything. “It’s queer. It’s decolonial. It’s pluralistic.” We need to let go of the binaries and borders, she says.

As part of the Broadway Cinema All-NIghter, Mayhem are screening DEMONS 21/22 June. BOOK NOW: www.broadway.org.uk/whats-on/hor...

Once upon a time, Reader's Digest regularly sent out flexidiscs promoting their latest record collections. Some of these discs actually played after negotiating the postal system - but not many. A tale of a lost world of hard sell and promotional ephemera. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Libc...

And you can even watch

Hundreds of Beavers Live hosted by @scsheil.bsky.social for @mayhemfilmfestival.bsky.social.

Glad you rated the artwork - it's great!

Oh thank you! That's very kind. Everyone should own your terrific book PHASES OF THE MOON - the best analysis of werewolf cinema written.

For those I didn’t know on the other site: I’m a lecturer in film and media and a freelance film writer. I wrote a book on werewolf movies and am currently researching anti-capitalism in contemporary American horror. I also run an annual conference on 21st century horror (@fear2000.bsky.social).

MORE FILMS!!! Excited to announce we'll be hosting the UK Premiere of Bertrand Mandico's CONANN, as well as previews of Joe Lynch's SUITABLE FLESH and Ariel Vida's TRIM SEASON. We also have a gorgeous new artwork courtesy of FORECAST DESIGN!
