Book 10 - #DavidBowie: #Starman by #PaulTrynka. A superb book, well written by someone who cares about Bowie. However, when it comes to Bowie's discography, the comments are based on personal opinion. #MusicHistory #BookSky #RockLegend #Biography #GlamRock #BowieBiography #ArtRock

Mr Vampire 2. I genuinely enjoyed the first film, but this is a poor sequel which leaned too much into the comedy for me. I also didn't like the child vampire character. #HorrorMovies #HorrorSequel #SlapstickComedy #HoppingVampires #Vampire #HongKongVampires #Jiangshi #HongKongHorror #Kyonsi

This film wasted its potential, but William Marshall, with his beautiful voice, gave it some gravitas. It did build tension well, and I love the animated opening credits. I understand its cultural importance, but for me, it was an average, pretty cheesy vampire film. #HorrorMovies #CultClassic

In the room sat a single, folding chair. On it lay a neatly printed Manila folder with Elias’s name, dated yesterday. ​The horror wasn't the monster under the bed; it was the realisation that the "mystery" he’d been running from had been curated for him by someone who never left.

Of course I'm going to do a writing prompt. Of course I am.
Go to.
I'm waiting.

This tale works better in an anthology, like in the Tales From the Crypt film. To turn into a full-length, it has an unnecessary flashback. This is a disappointing, dull and unremarkable. #HorrorMovies #PreCodeHorror

Why give him a claw hand if it is not going to come into play more? Fred Holbert isn't bad; he retains his childlike innocence despite his violent streak. It is a terrible but interesting film that goes nowhere and drags a little. #HorrorMovies #SlasherFilm #PsychoKiller #ExploitationCinema

For me, this was style over substance, but Mia Goth was mesmerising again, and the soundtrack was perfect. But as the trilogy goes, my order would be Pearl, X and then Maxxine. #HorrorMovies #HorrorFranchise #Slasher #HorrorTrilogy #HorrorSequel #HorrorFan #1980sAesthetic

I’m officially in the home stretch of my A to Z of So Bad, They’re Good, etc & #WonderfullyWeird cinema. I’ve conquered 24 letters, but the themes for J and O are playing hard to get. #WritingCommunity #CultClassic #BMovies #ZGrade #FilmWriter #Cinematography #WritingUpdate

The Mia Goth monologue is the highlight of the film, but her whole performance is creepy. It is a slow burn with a nice mix of horror and drama. They did a great job in making it feel like a 1918 film. The off-kilter soundtrack adds to the atmosphere. #HorrorMovies #Slasher #PsychologicalHorror

I love the mixture of hard science and supernatural elements. But Peter patronising Jill and the general shouted dialogue wears thin early on and distracts from the suspense and good atmosphere. The film has some issues with the pacing. The melodramat makes it a little disappointing.

I really thought I’d nail this DIY project. Turns out, I’m just screwed.
​45 minutes in and I haven't even made it past the second instruction. If you need me, I’ll be sitting on the floor next to my unfinished table. Send help (and maybe a carpenter). #DIYFail

Back from watching The Strangers: Chapter 2. It was fine until they introduced the homing hog! #HorrorMovies #SlasherHorror #MaskedKillings

Trading the #NightShift for the big screen! Huge thanks to my friend for the invite to a #PrivateScreening of #TheStrangers:Chapter2 in #Norwich tonight. ​Before the jump scares start, I’m hitting up my favorite shops and grabbing a proper meal. #NorwichLife #DayOffVibes

Book 9 - #77ShadowStreet by Dean Koontz. I really struggled to get through this book. But I persevered only for it to come to an abrupt ending. #HorrorBooks #ThrillerReads

Storms, secrets, and speculative genius. Great to see this interview with #PhilipReeve on his latest, #BridgeOfStorms. A must-read for anyone who likes their fantasy with a side of existential weight.

Latest entry in the 'Bad Movie' diary: #StudentBodies. ​It’s a 1981 slasher parody that is aggressively silly, but honestly? Exactly what I needed. Between the 'Breather' being the least threatening killer in history and the Horsehead Bookends, it’s a masterclass in absurdism. #80sHorror

The plot is flimsy, the editing is bad, the music is annoying and the acting is terrible. The opening scene of the film within the film is better than the actual film. The ending is somewhat predictable. #HorrorMovies #Slasher #SlasherFilm #AustralianHorror

This is a poorly crafted, badly lit and acted film. The film's jungle setting is eerie, making the film oddly watchable. #HorrorMovies #MonsterMovie

Blessed #Imbolc, everyone. Imbolc is the time of the 'first stirrings', the moment life begins to wake up in the dark of the belly. #WheelOfTheYear #SpringIsComing #ImbolcBlessings

This could have been interesting but the ending is a mess. The film is a missed opportunity #HorrorMovies #SupernaturalHorror

If you’re a fan of #NickCave, you need to stop what you’re doing and find a way to watch Nick Cave's #VeiledWorld. ​It’s more than just a #MusicDocumentary; it’s a deep dive into the creative psyche, the weight of memory, and the raw, spiritual energy that defines his work. #TheBadSeeds

Book 8 - #TheVoices by #FRTallis. A great book, I am unsure about the ending as if the author didn't know how to finish the story. Interesting concepts are explored throughout. #HorrorBook #GhostStory #SupernaturalFiction

A below average film, it started well but it never went anywhere. The script is predictable with no real suspense, the special effects are unconvincing and the jump scares are lame. #HorrorMovies #ExorcismFilm
