When I watched this in the cinema last year when we got to That Bit I was doing little happy claps while everyone around me was going “what the fuck?!”

Since @mikemuncer.bsky.social is about to cover some Alien sequels on Evolution of Horror I guess it’s time to revisit the series lol I’ve been wanting to.
The original is still one of the best sci-fi/slasher/ cosmic horror films ever. Best cat too. 🐈

A mushed up banana peel that is camouflaged to match the environment around it and lying in wait for the unwary.
How’s the second #fridaythe13th treating everyone?
Because I took three steps out of my front door and, no joke, slipped on a banana peel like I was in a goddamn Loony Tunes cartoon. 🍌
The Friday the 13th curse is real y’all! (maybe)

It’s #lastfourfriday
Three in cinema watches this week. High stakes baking and coming of age in 1990 Iraq, Hammer Horror gets freaky with a messed up family, coming of age on a historic day in Nigeria and the most uplifting film about death you’ll ever see.

So that’s what this art style is called. I’ve always liked this aesthetic so now I can find the right rabbit hole to jump down. Thanks!
I work retail and seeing people do that every day drives me crazy! Are people just incapable of putting things back where they found it?
I have my pass!
This is such an amazing lineup! Some favs I’m looking forward to experiencing on the Megascreen. Classics I’ve yet to see and some deep cuts I’m ready to become obsessed over. (Spanish knights vs aliens? Yes please!)
Judging from the promo art choices I think I can guess the theme for this year, and if I’m right it’s the theme I would have championed had I any say in it. We’ll see on Monday if I’m correct.
(Time off work already booked!)
I finally saw Interstellar a few weeks back. In an actual planetarium! This was such an emotional scene, but there was a part of my mind that was going “Hey look! It’s that meme you’ve seen everywhere!”
Would not be the first guy who tried to leverage his wealthy family’s connections in Hollywood to make it in entertainment, fail miserably due to lack of talent and decide that their failure was all due to a liberal conspiracy against conservatives and become a right wing freak. (See Ben Shapiro)
I’ll always appreciate The House on Trubnaya for being a Cinderella story where her Prince Charming is trade unionism. 😍

So I’m about to watch Interstellar for the first time. And I’m doing it in an actual planetarium! Lucky me!

Oh I love Them! so much! I personally find it fascinating that both America and Japan made atomic monster attack films in 1954 about the risks of nuclear war and they are so different in tone.

Need a film to fill the gap? How about A House in Jerusalem? It’s the first horror film made in Palestine and also works as a good introduction to how an apartheid nation works on the ground.

I have a copy and I really enjoyed reading it. You should be proud of it, the dedication to the topic really shows in the finished book. 😁
Well it’s #fridaythethirteenth so I had better get back to watching the Friday the 13th films!
The F13 films really start to shine in the middle of the series when Tommy Jarvis shows up IMO. This is some great and efficient eighties cheese and blood.

I’m going Friday evening for a midnight screening of Send Help. Going to enjoy the upgrade over the old place, which I loved as much as the next guy but it had gotten really worn down.

My penultimate film for this year’s @slapstickfest.bsky.social is the better than its reputation Atoll K aka Utopia aka Robinson Crusoeland. Laurel and Hardy’s final film and parody of geopolitics, boarders, governance and… the Libertarian Seasteading movement?

Finally got to see One Cut of the Dead thanks to @slapstickfest.bsky.social
The best zombie film that I’ll tell everyone to watch but never say why. But I will say that it is one of the most original takes on the genre I have ever seen. Plus it’s really funny.

P-pods? 😱
For the second year in a row I’ve gotten up at Oh God! o’clock in the morning to see Yasujirō Ozu at @slapstickfest.bsky.social
Shoutout to Pamela Hutchinson for her very informative into and Günter A. Buchwald and Frank Bockius for their live soundtrack.
Hope to be back in 2027!

Early highlight from @slapstickfest.bsky.social is Buster Keaton en francais in The King of the Champs-Élysées. My first sound Keaton and probably the best. The intro by Polly Rose was also delightful.

On the bus 🚌 to the 2026 Slapstick Fest! Three days of comedy double teams, classy French wit and *checks itinerary* Japanese zombie mayhem.
At @wshed.bsky.social for what I’m guessing could be an all time cinema experience.
First my first ever Godard 😲 with Breathless which is one of my fav micro genres; French people do crime.
Then I’m going to see Richard Linklater’s Nouveau Vague about the maki of Breathless. 😆 So much France today

Got a really good #lastfourwatched this week, all cinema or film club in a pub basement watches.
We get Joan Crawford at her most unhinged, the genocide in Gaza represented in microcosm, the most highly rated film on #Letterboxd and the 🤯 movie.

New Sam Raimi? Why didn’t anyone tell me???
