Writer. Film lover. Horror evangelist. Anti-fascist. Night owl. Misfit toy. Pragmatic idealist, and skeptic at the same time. Autistic. AI is for suckers. All I want is to be an honest man and a good writer.

The thing about Shane Gillis, and all of the dipshits like him, is that they’ve got nothing else. They’re marginally decent at something, and without the controversy, that becomes blatantly clear. Nothing about the Gillis’s of the world is interesting if they’re not being edgelord bullies.

I’ve said before, I really think the reversal of this question is the more instructive version. Why would a man set foot in a frat house?

HELLBOUND: HELLRAISER 2 (1988): The first-time watch of (most) of the HELLRAISER sequels begins, and wait, hold on, this one fucking rips? Just balls-to-the-wall cosmic horror, with some of the best matte paintings I’ve ever seen in a horror film. Also, weirdly in rhythm with THE PERFECTION.

“Trump is a coward who is weaponizing his DOJ to fuel hate and intimidate his opponents with baseless attacks like these, just like he’s doing with Rep. McIver, Lisa Cook, and Tish James,” said Pressley, who is also Black. “We stand with you, Congresswoman Omar.”

River – Official Trailer
The Trailer has been released for River. The sun is down. The boat is dead. There’s no cell service. And there’s someone standing, staring, from the shore. From the producers of Backrooms and Obsession comes a vivid, visceral new vision in the slasher genre, marking an electrifying feature-film debut by writer-director Joshua Giuliano. River stars Jane Levy (Don’t Breathe, Evil Dead), Jessica Rothe (Happy Death Day films, Pulse) and Max Mattern (Cape Fear, Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy) as estranged siblings who reunite in their rural hometown after the death of their father.

I don't think this sort of casual lawlessness is a distraction at all, I think it's the whole enchilada. ICE and HSI are thuggish scofflaws regularly deployed on American soil to terrorize nonwhite people so the president can make his allies in the right-wing press show black & brown suffering on TV

I'm genuinely worried about what social media is doing to our collective relationship to storytelling, and our ability to to understand, interrogate and get the most out of it.

The only other thing I'm going to say about Flanagan's Carrie is that all of the focus on what it's not, misses what it is, and it strikes me as far more creatively and artistically ambitious than the "IS IT ACCURATE/LOYAL TO THE NOVEL?" discussions leave room for.

This drives me crazy too. The Princess Bride is constantly used as an example for the anti-self aware meta humor argument of a movie with sincerity, but its literally a self aware meta romantic comedy. Its proof that the "being self aware and meta is anti-sincere" argument is wrong, actually. 🤷‍♂️

As I said, intentional or by product of capitalism, the end result is the same. I think both are likely, and the different actors don’t have to share an intention to contribute to that result. The speed and scope of consolidation if media industries suggests it’s both, to me at least.

This is the same story as city govts and police departments targeting activists. In both instances, the people with the institutional power refuse to recognize the opposition as essential to maintaining stability. It’s paranoid power, acting accordingly.
