A ★★★½ review of The Vampire Doll (1970)
I really enjoyed this, the first of Michio Yamamoto's thematic 'Bloodthirsty' Trilogy, which focusses on a young woman (Kayo Matsuo) who goes in search of her brother (Atsuo Nakamura) who's recently d...

This is goofy as fuck, but I found it quite charming because they're playing it so seriously while being terrorised by the fluffiest monsters you've ever seen. It's a bit dull at times, but I enjoyed it more than I was expecting.

When man meets a force he can't destroy, he destroys himself. What a plague you are. I think it's probably the best part of a decade since I've seen this. I'd remembered really loving it, but didn't g...

We’re long past the point of pretending any Trans+ person is safe in the country @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social and this Labour government have created But let’s be clear: publicly harassing someone simply for being Trans, and for making personal decisions about their own body, is morally repugnant

The British establishment is in full force attempting to rehabilitate the image of JK Rowling before Christmas. Absolutely desperate to make Harry Potter a unifying moment of British culture instead of the fundraiser for hatred it has become.

While we protested about women’s safety, funding cuts and racists weaponising us, these men stopped to shout at us and film us. Well done to the woman who got the footage. When they were next to me they were very aggressive and police were looking the other way. They did eventually notice.

".. its widely accepted it was a bad brexit deal" Because the priority was to undermine Corbyn, not get the best deal. Who can forget the likes of Jo Swinson, Ed Davey, Anna Soubry & Luciana Berger voting against a customs union. Or Keir (clip below) rejecting his own proposals!

Your regular reminder that in 2023 I was asked on Women’s Hour to be interviewed by Emma Barnett about Alice’s inquest. I said no, because Emma is GC, but I’d go on with someone else. They didn’t engage with me after that. The BBC is biased. It’s anti-trans and anti-anyone who supports trans people.

A ★★★ review of Leprechaun Returns (2018)
There can't be many franchises where the final one is the best, but I'd say it's definitely the case for the Leprechaun films. There were only 2 of the 8 I really hated, but there are no great entries...

"Back in 2019, he was hired as a featured player and fired days later when podcast clips resurfaced in which he made racist and homophobic comments." Sounds like a lesson could've been learned from that and they could've not hired the dickhead again?

The BBC is already giving Nigel Farage coverage for a speech he hasn’t even delivered. Report on what he says tomorrow, by all means. But previewing it now gives him free publicity and lets him set the agenda before anyone can scrutinise his words.

Welp, extremely disappointed to learn Zack Polanski has decided to capitulate to the British Establishment and genocidal ethnonationalists (but I repeat myself). As the Corbyn years showed, no concession will ever be greeted positively, instead always seen as cause to make more demands.
