I really liked Dust Bunny, once I locked in on what kind of films it was.
Mads was great, Sophie Sloan is a star

Primate was the best @horrorthon-fest.bsky.social surprise film in years. It's a lean effective chimp as killer slasher basically

Had a really good time with #Primate at @horrorthon-fest.bsky.social.

More movies starring an Academy Award winner as a workaholic widower who needs to reconnect with his daughters should feature a killer chimp.

If you're wondering what to see at @irishfilminstitute.bsky.social Horrorthon this weekend I can recommend FLUSH (Friday night), a hilariously grim French saga that takes place entirely inside a very small toilet. It might not sound promising but I saw it with an audience who went wild for it.

Revisiting “The Descent” in 4K at @irishfilminstitute.bsky.social. Shoutout to @ohdeerdiner.bsky.social for pointing out that despite being set in dark caves, the film is still lit beautifully and strongly without ever being overlit.

A gorgeous restoration of a stunning (and gnarly) horror classic.
