The Crazies - (2010) Think of the best of the zombie(ish) genre and what do you get?

The Crazies - 2010

Memorable kills and heartbreaking deaths held together by the endlessly talented and charismatic Timothy Olyphant.

Blade Runner 2049 - (2017) Big budget indie film...I wish there were more

Blade Runner 2049 - (2017)

It plucks subtle notes about love, predjudice and purpose, while windmilling the stronger chords of humanity, greed and acceptance.

The absolute best scifi-film ever made

Dredd - (2012) Where is the sequel?

Dredd - (2012)

Gritty, violent, unashamedly loyal to its source material and yet its a highly original story. Dredd is a fantastic example of storytelling that doesnt pander to fans, but excites them.

Where the f**king sequel?

Heretic - (2024) Is there a more charasmatic actor than Hugh Grant?

Heretic - (2024)

Hugh Grant could play Batman and be the right choice.

Physcological, theological and thoughtful horror at its best.

Manhunter - (1986) Laden with moments of unnerving surrealism with the knack of making you feel like you're experiencing a waking dream, I will comfortably put this crime thriller into the horror category.

YouTube video by Alien Vault Alien (1979) Complete P7 - Cocoons, Parker, Lambert and suicide pills

The dark arts of the YouTube algorithm served this up and I thought it would interest you @perfectorganism.bsky.social

Some of the ash scene in particular is fascinating

The Haunting - (1963) Its what you cant see.

The Haunting - (1963)

Steven Speilberg and Martin Scorcese favourite horror film - The Haunting is unsettling and uncomfortable viewing.

Alien Romulus, a film I dislike so much it showed me just how much I love the original Alien trilogy This is a long one.

Hate to do it, but I had to get this off my chest...

...but it all comes from a place of love for the original trilogy.

Predator 2 (1990) There’s plenty wrong with the follow up to the 1987 Schwarzenegger classic.

Predator 2 - 1990

For me, an underrated classic.

Could’ve easily been a retread of the first one, but they tried something a little different - and for the most part, it really worked.

Beyond Shadows A quick announcement about a small…shift.

As ever, the best way to support anyone or anything is to tell just one person about it - and that’s my ask for this book.

Think of that one person who might enjoy a collection of #sci-fi and #horror flash fiction and send the link on.

A quick announcement and small book full of very short #sci-fi and #horror stories.

FB and insta have been deactivated for a long time for me. Finally deleted Instagram for good last night. My only problem is messenger, which I use meaning I can't delete FB.

Not to mention WhatsApp.

That's how they get you.

One of the reasons I prefer the Assembly Cut is because I don't need to see Spike getting 'chestbursted'.

Out of all the brutality and despair in that film (and its brilliant by the way), that part was a step too far.
