Derrickson and @crobertcargill.bsky.social stressing me out with another movie. I just finished the Black Phone 2 and it is brilliant. From style to performances to narrative, it takes everything from the first movie and cranks the dial higher. So many thrills plus complexity and heart. I loved it.

Quote this with the first four Horror movies that come to your mind that are 10/10s for you. No cheating. Just the first four that pop into your head.
I'll go first:
-Silence of the Lambs
-I Saw the Devil
-Coherence
-Jaws

The demon rears on its splayed legs and slaps its naked thighs, leering as it talks shit at you with its long, forked tongue. So listen, and listen good:

Trump’s allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, & TikTok.
They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ & NY Post.
They own Sinclair Broadcasting which has 200 tv stations and local news in 100 markets.
“Freedom of speech” is now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.
