Fangoria’s Frankenstein special is a total treat. Packed with great features old and new. I even get a mention on page 91, my first time in Fango for more than a decade. Many thanks @philnobilejr.bsky.social

In my final recap (sob!) of the Friday Night Lights Rewatch Project for @foreveryoungadult.bsky.social, it's VERY fitting that there's a Lavon Hayes-George Tucker reunion since I'm such a huge Hart of Dixie diehard.

We landed in Germany four years ago today! We were so very overwhelmed 😆 Moving to a continent where we knew no one and nothing has been strange and stressful but also rad, thrilling, beautiful, mind-expanding. I’d change it for nothing.

What movie villain is a horrible person, but an absolute joy to watch on screen?

I'm having a hard time placing my WICKED: FOR GOOD review, so to the masses I go: I have forgotten more about the play and novel than most people will ever know to begin with, and I would be a huge asset to your outlet.

I'll happily pub on my own, of course, but being paid is also nice!

just launched my new weekly column at MovieWeb, Memory Holed – starting with a look back at why we memory-holed Shane Black's The Predator:
Memory Holed: 2018's 'The Predator' Was a Horribly Misguided Misfire
There's a reason you forgot Shane Black's sequel existed. Several reasons, actually.

Meredith is KILLING IT. (As is Fango.)

The book is wonderful, but I'm almost more excited about these one-shots, as they have the potential to broaden Fango's audience in a tangible manner. And they're fun! For the whole family!
so yes, MORE exciting Fango news! I've got a snazzy new title: Head of Single Issue Publications. We're kicking off a new division with this gorgeous Frank one-shot, detailing every plodding step of Mary Shelley's Creature, from Villa Diodati to del Toro: www.fangoria.com/fangoria-pre...

THIS is the really fun project @jasonkauz.bsky.social and I have been working on! So excited for y’all to see it.

Co-signed! Seeing this movie on Monday and can’t wait to re-read @richardlnewby.bsky.social’s interview with Trachtenberg afterwards.
If you do check out PREDATOR: BADLANDS, maybe pick up the latest issue of FANGORIA. @richardlnewby.bsky.social has a really good article about the film in it.

Next week I'm visiting three countries (Austria, Slovakia and Hungary) as fun lil day jaunts, and after 40 years in Texas where I could drive 14 hours and not leave the state, this will never not be amazing to me.
