Life is Short, Coincidences are Ridiculous
I try not to believe in ridiculous bullshit, but ridiculous bullshit seems determined to try its hardest to make me believe in it. Just like shooting a movie in a haunted mental hospital and having…

Want real insight into making indie #horror and balancing art with what sells? I’ve profiled Andy Edwards, who’s nailed it without losing his unique voice. First in my new series on the careers of indie 😊 amicushorror.co.uk/lawrie-brews... #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily

After next week I'm going to be largely offline for a couple of months, so if you need something out of me before that it's probably best to give me a shout over the next few days (don't worry, it's not a bad thing)

15 years ago, DVD & Blu-ray Review magazine called me a 'funny guy' before proceeding to trash my then-latest movie.
I used the 'Pat Higgins is a funny guy' pull-quote for years, knowing it was the only positive sentence in the piece.
Ah well, the magazine's long gone and I'm still hilarious.

Now playing: Nemesis the Warlock on the C64 for the first time since the 80s. I had forgotten the way monsters sometimes burst out of your dead foes. This was hardcore onscreen violence for 1987. #retrogaming

Since March 2018, Powertool Cheerleaders Vs the Boyband of the Screeching Dead has been a daily part of my life. From scripting to pre-production, all the way through to sorting out distribution and marketing, not to mention two years of actually shooting the thing in the middle. (1/)

Decades too late, I FINALLY saw Friday the 13th Part III in wonderful 3D as intended. Had an absolute blast with it. My new favourite F13 viewing experience, overtaking Jason X in a theatre on opening weekend. It'll never be my favourite franchise, but goddamn I love 80s 3D.

We went to see an episode of QI being filmed in the 00s. Never saw it air. It had Rich Hall make a brilliant joke about time travel (which I guess may not have made the edit). We've been trawling iplayer looking for it for an hour now. No joy whatsoever. Can't remember the other panelists, alas.

Flashback to Cannes 2008. Feels like yesterday. I associate this fest with the smell of Lush's Sonic Death Monkey shower gel, which I had then but got discontinued shortly after. It's now available again, and the smell transports me.
