This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu

It is genuinely incredible to me how much evidence there is to support investing in the public good and how much animus there is to do this simple, effective thing.

Cast Janelle Monáe in the sequel.
If not, as long as they don't cast Jared Leto as goblin royalty. If they do, there will be blood in the scuppers.

2026 Begins With a 'Labyrinth' Re-Release in Theaters
Before its sequel (probably) comes out, why not watch 'Labyrinth' on the big screen again next January?

The new "Toxic Avenger" remake was a better comment on modern corporate corruption than the new "Running Man" remake.

Woke up thinking about Onibaba (1964).
What a film.
Two women survive in warring feudal Japan by tricking and murdering samurai, and stealing their belongings.
But when someone gets between the two women, the eldest tells of an evil curse that may be on them both...
Machete's way up for this one.🔪🔪

"I'm sorry sir, you misspelled 'potato' at a spelling bee for 12 year olds where the school had it misspelled on the script they gave you. Therefore you cannot be president. Next time just have sex with some of the 12 year olds. That's totally fine."

I'm getting a lot of LinkedIn alerts for companies seeking writers for "short-form vertical dramas." That is: three-minute serialized videos constructed for phones. These videos are to get big budgets and aim to incorporate known I.P.
So, #Quibi. They've invented Quibi.

A favorite of Guillermo del Toro, Él is a thrilling/upsetting marital drama from Mexico's Golden Age that starts at emotional abuse and spirals into madness. My Criterion column this month on the new 4K restoration of this Luis Buñuel classic: www.avclub.com/cult-of-crit...
Cult Of Criterion: Él
Luis Buñuel injected his masterful Mexican melodrama Él with just enough uncanniness to poison its lead's mind.
