Made my first appearance on @rottentomatoes.com's "Critical Thinking" series to chat about all things Mike Flanagan! Double fun that I got to break down favorites and highlights with @pnemiroff.bsky.social, even if we can't agree on Doctor Sleep haha.

VERITY can't decide if it wants to be serious or trashy, and it would have been so much better if it had just committed to trashy. Still, the performances and cinematography are worth a watch. www.thewrap.com/creative-con...

For this month's new horror remake analysis over at @bloody-disgusting.com, I chose Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil's lesser-known South Korean remake: HANDSOME GUYS. What if Tucker & Dale had a demonic twist where each accidental death got Baphomet one step closer to opening the Gates of Hell? I liked it!

Huh. It’s a good pilot! CRYSTAL LAKE has a lot of love for Friday the 13th in visuals, in score, in machete kills. Linda Cardellini, my queen. Gore, baby! But there are already teases to where this series might go and oh boy, I am reaaaaaally curious to see if storytelling can pull off its swings.

I know once a movie is out of theaters it's dead to everyone forever, but @donatobomb.bsky.social and I finally had a chance to catch up on Na Hong-jin's HOPE, and boy do I love this little slice of bizarro Michael Bay. New podcast episode up for your listening pleasure.

I get that Alan Ritchson is Amazon’s golden boy, but does he just live at their studios at this point? Like, he wakes up under a desk and someone throws a new script at him and is goes, “you start filming in 20 minutes!”

My buddy @atommurray.bsky.social's puppet-fantasy short, THE TRAVELER & THE TROLL, is available to watch today. It's under 10 minutes, will make you laugh, keeps Henson's Labyrinth vibes alive, and is pretty darn impressive. Give it a look and tell Adam he done good!

Was looking for “Revenge of the Remakes” inspiration when @paulle.bsky.social just happened to drop a list of lesser known international horror remakes on @bloody-disgusting.com! So tonight I’m watching the South Korean Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil remake I didn’t know existed after an original refresh.

This is niche, but does anyone live in Glendale, CA, or have lived in Glendale? I have a question about Water & Power pricing. We downsized from our last rental, use the same amount of power (in a smaller space for the AC), and yet I'm paying TRIPLE the cost compared to ANYWHERE ELSE I've lived.

COMPLIANCE: I love how I'm middle-of-the-road on the most divisive, feel-bad movie of FF lol. A Screenlife(ish) surveillance-state horror flick that is uncomfortable, bleak, and not for everyone. Conspiracies come to life in repulsive ways, but the cynic in me couldn't look away. #FantasticFest

A highlight of my #FantasticFest: co-hosting RT’s “Fresh Frights” panel! Took the stage with friends I’ve made over the last decade-plus as a critic. A bit of a full-circle moment, since my first ever festival was FF back in 2014. Only fitting it be where I give my first Critics Conversation.

RED SNOW: A feisty Nordic Christmas Horror flick that plays by its own rules (complimentary). Vampires are the focus, but it’s hardly conventional. A darkly comedic, grab-bag approach gleefully paints the snow red with blood, while creature elements add a nice visual ick. A treat! #FantasticFest

THE SWALLOW: A quicksand version of The Blob meets The Ruins, plus a whole lotta SYFY Original energy. You’d think that would work for me, but boy it didn’t! Never hopped on its goofy-serious-wtf wavelength. Not even SFX by the legendary Tony Gardner could pull me through. #FantasticFest

HALF: A half-human, half-vampire flick with action choreography by Very Tri Yulisman (The Raid 2, The Night Comes for Us). Kicks enough ass, but is a thin experience that doesn't match the greatness of Yulisman's other works. Points for using a handheld juicer ... that way. #FantasticFest

TIKI DRINKS: One of my favorite trips of the festival. Finally getting time with my friends after cranking out reviews. A perfect prelude to a movie with action choreography from the team behind THE RAID and THE NIGHT COMES FOR US. #FantasticFest

GHOST IN A CELL: No one makes horror films like Joko Anwar, and he’s outdone himself yet again. The best film of the fest, and good luck beating it. Hilarious, full-blown gory, endlessly entertaining, meaty substance, kick-ass action, and so much more. The total package. #FantasticFest

PATHETIC FALLACY: My favorite Adam Egypt Mortimer by a country mile. Bizarre, renegade, punk-rock poeticism about life that swings a mean axe. Kid Cudi shines as a grief-stricken widower who Mortimer guides through a psychedelic slasher concept. Unexpected, intimate, and awesome. #FantasticFest

PRIMETIME: Robert Pattinson remains one of the most interesting and captivating modern actors. Tremendous performance. Horrifying, darkly comedic, and absolutely engrossing, but I'm not sure if all the tones vibe together given the source material. #FantasticFest

RIVER: The Strangers vibes with a culty twist? “Because you were on a boat.” Jane Levy and Jessica Rothe together are as good as you’d expect. Brutal kills. Super eerie vibes. Today was a good day of #FantasticFest screenings.

PLAY HOUSE: Nicolas Curcio turns his inaugural Fantastic Pitches win into a creepy home-invasion riff. James Urbaniak slam-dunks Creepypasta vibes as a VHS Mr. Rogers type, but this isn't a Buddy or Mr. Crocket rewrite. It twists, it turns, and it delivers. #FantasticFest

THE CYCLE: Jordan Downey's crime procedural creature-feature boasts his advocacy for practical effects, and for that, we're grateful. The first investigative thriller half takes its time getting to the action, but once unleashed, the film earns its praise. A backloaded flick for the patient viewer.

IN A VIOLENT NATURE 2: Secret's out; Johnny's back! As someone who thinks the original is just fine, ditto here. More walking, more ultraviolent slasher kills, more dead air. Director Nate Wilson runs the same playbook again, with a slight narrative bump (but worse performances?) #FantasticFest

VICTORIAN PSYCHO: I think I have a new favorite Maika Monroe role? A bloody and unhinged period satire marked by the beast. From the first frame, Monroe holds us in a hysterical state of unease. Would watch her slaughter high-society bastards all day. #FantasticFest

FLAPJAX: A spiritual sequel to Troma’s Poultrygeist, which is either a good or bad thing depending on the viewer. LOW budget goop that takes a while to deliver, but once it does, this passionate oddball might win you over. Shades of From Beyond, Malignant, The Stuff? Wild! #FantasticFest

Beware Boiúna: An unfortunate creature-feature miss. Sets itself up in a very Anaconda way, but filmmaking techniques can't deliver the thrills, visuals, or excitement that a snake of this size deserves. Dark, choppy, and convoluted. Bummer. #FantasticFest
