It's that magical time, when I become obsessed with curling. A sport that manages to be very compelling and faintly ridiculous. Truly the sport of kings.

Having a blast watching Rocky IV on TG4. A tremendously 80's musical boxing movie.

What a classic. Proof that some directors are just great from the very start of their careers. Cheers to Jay for a great pick and goodnight. #beyondfriday

A brutal kill for poor Welles. The quick cut of the shooter popping up shows what a great editor Carpenter is. #beyondfriday

This looks interesting. #beyondfriday

I could imagine a version of this where Kurt Russell and Keith David are playing this pair of cool convicts. #Beyondfriday

Guns don't kill people. John Carpenter kills people. #BeyondFriday

Carpenter is riffing on Howard Hawks Rio Bravo here. But the visceral impact of Napoleon's blasting shotgun is pure Peckinpah. Also, that shooting was just awesome. #beyondfriday

The use of silencers is wonderfully eerie and intense. Carpenter does a nice job of making an action movie with the atmosphere of a horror. #beyondfriday

Real Michael Myers vibes with the silently stalking gang members. #Beyondfriday

A brutal kill that made this movie a classic. But Carpenter is demonising the Irish again with this ginger psycho. Seriously guys. Micheal Myers. Sliver Shamrock. What's his problem? #beyondfriday

This film might a cautionary tale of not giving your kids junkfood. #beyondfriday

What a high impact and low budget opening. It looked like the police shotguns were inverted shots of the same footage. #Beyondfriday

This track is one of may favourite John Carpenter themes. What a righteous dude. #beyondfriday

It's the second #beyondfriday in a row that I made this mistake. I'm blaming middle age and the 11pm kick off time.
My #bootlegfriday trailer is for John Woo's The Killer. It's one of his Hong Kong classic action melodramas and Arrow are releasing a 4k remaster of it this April.

An absolutely fantastic choice. I can't wait.

Let us not forget that Catherine O'Hara was hired for "Saturday Night Live," spent a week there, decided it sucked, quit, and went back to Canada to make more shows with her friends.

R.I.P. to Catherine O'Hara. She was a wonderful actress with tremendous comic timing and screen presence. She also did a fine job playing a larger then life Irish mammy in Last of the High Kings.

Openly simping for ICE and supporting their murder of Alex Pretti and Renni Good is one hell of a decline. I appreciate that it's all part of him holding out a virtual begging bowel to support himself. But that rationale is even more contemptible.
Nine years to the day since Graham Linehan foresaw his own fate.

Heads up every. The very rare decent SNL skit just dropped.
