My book Transmedia Terrors in Post-TV Horror is now available as a paperback (and at a much more reasonable price!). You can pre-order it here: www.routledge.com/Transmedia-T...

Had the most brilliant time at the National Film Archive of Japan

Thrilled to get my contributor’s copy of this brilliant edited collection. My chapter analyses online racist (anti-)fan cultures’ toxic conspiracies of ‘blackwashing’ directed at Black actors cast in Western screen media, which perpetuates white victimhood.

Thrilled to get my contributor’s copy of The Nightmare Before Christmas edited collection. I wrote about three of my favourite things: horror, media audiences… and food!

Three upcoming special screenings curated and hosted by our brilliant third-year Media, Culture and Journalism students as part of their Curation, Exhibition & Events module. These events are autism-friendly relaxed screenings.

A wonderful trip with our third year Media, Culture and Journalism students to Bristol to visit the @wshed.bsky.social A huge thanks to Steph Read and Maddy Probst for the tour and their session on film programming and curation. Great to catch a screening of Mickey 17 too!

And as part of the special dossier on horror fans and audiences I got to write about my favourite film of all time. You can read my open-access article on Battle Royale fans here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
