After posting CMAT's Peter Bogdanovich yesterday, I started thinking about other pop songs related to movies and the first one that popped into my head was Hammer Horror by #KateBush. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR4K...

So David's been watching movies he knows I'd probably enjoy without me. AGAIN. I don't know how this marriage has lasted. I really don't.
So, John Barrymore's son has raised a zombie army to attack Rome? What else have I missed? dcairns.wordpress.com/2026/02/03/b...

The President shit himself on live TV. Melania bombed. The Epstein files are sending shockwaves through the Alt Right. Liam and his dad are back home. A Texas district that was DEEP red for 35 years flipped blue. Pretti's killers have been identified.

Small wins, but you can feel the change coming.

David @dcairns.bsky.social is on a ladder taping paper cups to the ceiling for Certain Reasons. I forgot he was up there, walked into the hall and got the fright of my life. After I'd recovered my equilibrium I told him I was going to tell everyone what he was up to,

Great post over on FB for all you #ADHD folks out there. Turns out that science has proved we're not so' broken' after all. Then there's a great request. We're asked to describe the worst advice we've ever been given by neurotypical people. Here's mine. www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1...

We all owe @rianjohnson.bsky.social a big Thank You. #WakeUpDeadMan is like baby bear's porridge, it's 'just right.' I'm not damning it with faint praise. I mean that sincerely. It's perfect. For years Johnson has been providing us with the benefits of good, old fashioned story telling,

#TheElephantMan #DavidLynch #FreddieJones There's a thing going around other sm platforms where you pick your favourite line delivery from a movie. This is one of my favourites (shame about the colourisation). Thanks to @faceyouhate.bsky.social for the info. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zC1e...

Another edit session on the Mysterious Next Project over. It will be the most comprehensive look at this as yet unamed film ever commited to 4K. I was up recording VO until 4am today. I was so knackered I collapsed into bed with all my clothes on. Now we're going to have pizza and #WakeUpDeadMan.

Aaah, #GeorgeRomero's Monkey Shines. What I love about this film is that Romero makes the lead disabled character completely, realistically human. No 'noble suffering' for this guy. He's pissed off about being quadraplegic after an accident. He even wants to die. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD8T...

Recorded VO for our Mysterious Next Project at 3 o'clock in the morning in our living room. I chose to sit in the classic W-sitting #neurodivergent sitting position. For those of you who don't know anything about neurodivergent sitting positions, here's a handy guide.

#RayHarryhausen #Bubo Look at this thing! It's a 1960s Japanese transistor radio that bears an uncanny resemblance to Bubo the mechanical owl from The Great Mr H's last movie. The auction is bound to be closed now dammit.

#WCFields #botd The film that once caused a comedy producer friend of mine to go into a strange kind of panic because she didn't understand why getting a bucket full of fake snow thrown in your face every time you opened the door was funny. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMDs...

Poor #SydneySweeney, enslaved by her own breasts. Forced to exploit them while they're still perky to make an honest buck. “I wanted to create a place where women can move between all the different versions of who we are," she said.

#DrJekyllandMrHyde (1931) #coercivecontrol #abuse It's astonishing that a film made as relatively early as this is in the sound era completely nails the complexities of domestic violence. This scene could have been written yesterday. Despite the fantastical element it's completely emotionally real.

#RubenMamoulian #DrJekyllandMrHyde (1931) #FrederickMarch #BestActorOscar #specialeffects #filmsound It's insane listening to the transformation scene from this film through headphones. I've never tried it before. I thought he just made sounds but he actually speaks during this. He says, "Oh yes."
