I love that people are watching THE ESTROGEN GOSPEL all of a sudden because of the season but, fair warning, it isn't particularly Halloween-y beyond generally spooky and ghostly vibes. I released it online last December because I feared it might disappoint spooky season viewers in that regard.

Just attended a screening of QUADROPHENIA at HOME in Manchester that was advertised as being accompanied by the Daniel Farson ITV doc LIVING FOR KICKS, but disappointingly what was actually screened was just a brief extract from it as opposed to the full 39 minute film.

Apparently THE ESTROGEN GOSPEL got screened at the Trans Library in Helsinki, Finland, alongside the great T-BLOCKERS - which is wild and unexpected and delightful to hear. I hope people enjoyed my little folk-horror passion project that I made all those years back!

Fugly AI slop SCREAM 7 Fanta cinema ad might be the most unappealing thing ever. Might as well have had an ICE CREAM MAN tie in at this rate. Appalling.

Freddy Krueger @realrobynadams.bsky.social said it best I feel that aptly describes Freddy. He has the abilities of a fairy tale character but he was born out of actual human depravity.

It's kinda funny how I'm apparently considered to be a notable figure in the "Trans New Wave / Trans New Weird" film scene, but I don't get discussed as much as other people because nobody knows what to make of my films.

Earlier this year as part of our uni film course, my friend and regular collaborator Rhys Smith invited me to make a film with him based on the Greek tragedy of Orpheus. I wrote a script based on discussions we had, and the result was OPHELIA. The finished film is now available to watch. ☠️🎸🎶

I don't make movies which aren't colourful and I don't make movies which aren't wonky. If you see a movie that isn't those things then I didn't make it. I might have been in it or been involved in it but that's not my thing.

Not a lot of new horror releases coming out this Halloween, eh? There are a bunch of films, sure, like WICKER and I LOVE BOOSTERS, but less horror than you'd think for the season (not none, just less). There is, however, THE DEVILS, which might catch people looking for seasonal viewing off guard.

Have submitted it to a carefully curated handful of festivals now - looking forward to people seeing this one, it's a bit different but very me and it's still sincere even if it's tongue-in-cheek. I've been told by several people it's my strongest and most stylistically confident, which is good.

Now that the NDA on Hammer's ITHAQUA (2026) has expired I can mention the thing which I've forgotten to put in my review, which is that there's an unreasonably funny gross bit where a guy gets naked and there are brown stains all over his bumcrack. Like I guess it's period accurate but also, LMAO.

The videogame guy I'm controlling? That's not me; I'm me. The main character in a novel I'm reading isn't me either. More and more I feel like this is an unusual attitude towards art.

Horrific news. I wish I could say that I'm surprised things have got to this point but I'm not. Something needs to be done about this. Urgently. This is unimaginably cruel and so many appalling things have to have happened in order for things to reach this point.

Guy in a hi vis jacket walking past The Christie thought it would be really funny to say "Good evening, sir" to me. It kinda was, but only because he said it at midday, which was bizarre.

If you're worried about the optics of this movie, don't worry - THE SHAKES is a proudly pro-murder film. I joke. Mostly.

It's a difficult life being a disabled transgender artist. Luckily for Sally, she's figured out how to only make it difficult for others. I'm delighted to reveal the gorgeous poster for my new horror-comedy THE SHAKES, designed by Eloise Hall!
'70s-style splatter horror poster with the title "The Shakes" at the bottom, with the word "Shakes" in red and giving off the appearance of shaking motion. Above it is a black-and-white image of a long-haired woman in a jacket with red hands, holding a tin of means in one and a meat cleaver in the other. Next to her, a descending tagline reads "if you'd like to know Sally's secret... prepare to shake hands with death!". The woman is stood against a square cut-out containing a photograph of some faded nature scenery. The background behind it all is beige and splattered with black blood.

This is just obviously an astroturfed hate campaign to me. Before it was an obscure indie that I heard mostly positive things about but now it's the latest target of the far right and they're useful idiots which worries me because apparently not even indies are safe anymore.
