While others are far better experts in horror films than I (looking at you @thehorrorchick.bsky.social ), if you have Shudder, they have one of my FAVORITE films streaming now: THE HAUNTING (1963) It's biggest effect may be something cheaply done now, but the build up & tone created as the...

In space, no one can hear you scream—and I can't hear you reading the first part of a long series on Alien spacecraft either. Starring Ron Cobb, Chris Foss, and H.R. Giger. Together, they would revolutionize space sci-fi and influence everything that followed.

Last year I was asked about doing an official poster for Trick 'r Treat. So, I came up with a concept & sent over the work in progress. They ultimately passed, but I finished it anyway. It's (clearly) inspired by the poster for House (1985)

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...
A casual Star Wars alien fella at the cantina, in a sun faded, reddish photo. Someone will be mad at me for not knowing who this is. Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

I saw this at a preview screening packed with a vast amount of friends. When we got to "A leaf on the wind" there was a lot of gasps and swears thrown out. But the worst thing? We couldn't tell anybody. What was a secret for a couple months became half a year of holding it... as it burned us all.

RESIDENT EVIL was great stuff! Not trying to reinvent the wheel, as much as Creggers is trying to make a damn fun horror film - and it succeeds! Some good scares, as well as beautiful cinematography. I appreciate that while not trying to be the game, it puts enough moments to feel like you are.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

The first movie memory I have is seeing LIVE AND LET DIE at the drive-in, somewhere in MA, possibly the South Shore Twin. The last new movies I saw were THE EXPENDABLES 3 and HERCULES at the Vineland Drive-In, CA The last one I saw was EVIL DEAD 2 at the Mendon Drive-In during the Pandemic.
