I love PREDATOR 2. Here’s a thing I wrote about how much.
FYI: The ultimate hunter takes on an urban jungle. PREDATOR 2 more than holds its own, a fascinating time capsule and classic in its own right. What's your favorite line?

Rewatching the original IT mini-series and it is so, so good. Tommy Lee Wallace completely nails the central strength of King's novel - the God-given beautiful authenticity of pre-teen friendship, strong enough to defeat the worst this world can throw at you.

I buy less discs these days (my to-watch pile was becoming unreasonable!) but these two pre-orders arrived recently: an under-celebrated John Carpenter meta-movie & possibly the most brutal film I’ve ever seen. Classics both.

Rewatch of the peerless AUDITION. My @letterboxd.social reviews are nothing if not consistent.

Got my contributor copy of @secondsightfilms.bsky.social’s release of THE FLORIDA PROJECT, for which I’ve written an essay on one of our greatest living actors - Mr Willem Dafoe. Really proud of this one.
Thanks again to Chris, @phillipescott.bsky.social & Kat Ellinger for having me onboard!

New tattoo day! A beautiful upper arm Jesus by the incomparable Kris at Vivid Ink Coventry (plus filling in a space in my inner elbow). Right hand sleeve almost complete.
(First shot is an old tattoo which was never finished 20+ years ago and acted as the guide for today)

Just finished these novellas by Seishi Yokomizo. ‘Murder...’ was so-so (a little light on characterisation, too focused on plot mechanics) but the second story ‘Why Did The Well Wheel Creak?’ was a stone-cold banger: a gothic horror told in letters and steeped in dread. Definitely worth checking out

Just finished @stephenking.bsky.social’s THE OUTISDER - absolutely floored. I was gripped, moved to tears and enotionally wrecked by an ending which lands like a ten pound jack hammer. Best novel I’ve read all year.

Watched Kurosawa's CURE for the first time yesterday. Haven't been this unnerved by a film in a very long time.
