There’s something so inherently crushing about grief, having to adjust, move on and forward. In horror, it’s just has visually damaging. @tugcekutlu.bsky.social takes us back through ‘Talk to Me’ for #NightTideMag 👻 📽️

HOLDING THE THRESHOLD: AFTERLIFE AND REFUSAL TO LET THE DEAD REMAIN DEAD IN ‘TALK TO ME’
Talk to Me (2022) frames grief not as passage but as paralysis; a suspended state where the refusal to accept absence traps the mourner in a self-perpetuating loop of contact and collapse.

She deserved more and is one of the MANY reasons the industry biases are hurting all of us.

New #NightTideMag review:
Whistle (2025): cursed object horror meets high school hierarchy. Familiar “cheat death” mechanics and a sharp focus on teens abandoned by every adult in the room. 2.5⭐️
Fun, flawed, and fully committed to its slasher nostalgia.

Home invasion horror can sometimes come from too much politeness.
From Funny Games and Speak No Evil to Creep and The Guest, we look at how social conditioning, discomfort, and the pressure to be “nice” turn hospitality into a threat. 👻📽️

HOME INVASION BY INVITATION
When horror lets danger in politely, these films expose how being “nice” delays survival; turning hospitality, discomfort, and social obligation into the real point of no return.

Bait-and-switch horror works because it understands expectation.
The switch isn’t a mistake; it’s the whole design.

For #NightTideMag, @lmariewood.bsky.social shares a celebration of Blacula: a flawed yet fearless horror film with the unwillingness to look away from brutality, racism, social disparity, or queer marginalization. 👻 📽️

THE IMPORTANCE OF ‘BLACULA’
L. Marie Wood looks into Blacula as horror with its eye firmly on the real world; examining police violence, queerness, segregation, and cultural tension through Prince Mamuwalde’s tragedy.

Today, we honor George A. Romero. With Ben, he gave us a figure defined by care, leadership, and survival, only to end his story with a clear, devastating truth. Romero trusted horror to tell that truth plainly, and it changed the genre forever. Thank you, George. #NightTideMag 👻📽️
