Had a great time at the Tyneside Cinema last night watching Soylent Green and taking part in a post-screening panel on the film. We talked about life, death, the environment, funeral practices, science fiction, and dystopia. So much to think about with this film. #horrorNU.

I had a marvellous time at Dirt on the Gate in Christchurch, introducing a 35mm screening of The Lost Boys…a classic 1980s teen vampire film. It was a packed house and was so nice to talk to so many enthusiastic horror/vampire/film fans. I look forward to future screenings @dirtinthegate.bsky.social

Delighted to have contributed to this wonderful Blu-ray of Don Bluth’s The Secret of Nimh, released as part of Eureka’s Masters of Cinema series. Been a fan of the film for years. Nice to see it feeling the love. Also features contributions from @cinefeline.bsky.social & @drsamsummers.bsky.social
