Watching THE BRIDE! again today just made me realize how relevant its portrayal of feminine rage is and remember that it's incredibly punk rock. It's not perfect but it's an extraordinary work of art from a female filmmaker that is worthy of reassessment.

Be sure to check out the latest issue of Fangoria and be first to hear about our latest, crazy project - the one I’ve been hinting at being unlike anything anyone has quite done before. Me + Scott + Ethan. News dropping soon for everyone else!

Revisiting THE BRIDE! A fierce performance from Jessie Buckley and a bold swing by director Maggie Gyllenhaal, that mostly works for me, but I expect it to be completely overlooked in awards conversations, which is sad.

Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s DIGGER is BARDO blended with BIRDMAN, a satire about the didacticism of contemporary satires. It doesn’t work and Tom Cruise is adrift. “It’s instead a sneering premise awaiting a drop of humanism.” My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social

Digger review: Iñárritu and Cruise dig themselves into a metafictional morass

It’s excruciatingly painful that this languid, self-satisfied film doesn’t work.

As a lifelong cinephile and horror fan I would never write a piece scolding people for not being aware of the latest horror movie trend. My own daughter doesn't like movies like I do and can't deal with horror at all. Hey, Rolling Stone, here's my pitch.

Michelle Swope @redheadfrommars.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I read the Rolling Stone piece and don't understand why this writer is so mad. I'm from the south and don't usually listen to country music, but I'm usually aware of artists. I've never heard of this person or this song and that says more about the Rolling Stone writer than it does about me. 🤷

The vast majority of creatives are struggling. Writers are leaving LA in droves. Directors are driving Uber when they aren't lucky enough to get gigs directing dubs or subs for foreign films. Recognizable actors are finding jobs they won't be recognized in. The whole industry is shitty right now.

If you ever wonder why writers and creators share and reshare their work as well as discuss followers, it’s because opportunities are largely based on UMVs (unique monthly visitors), in addition to talent. If you want to see creatives you like cover more stuff, follow them and share their work!

This infection is still kicking my ass, so after finishing TRUE DETECTIVE: NIGHT COUNTRY, I decided to start back at the beginning with season one. Love the connections between seasons 1 and 4 and Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey are just spectacular together.
