- Folk Horror Time! Revisited TUMBBAD (2018). An Indian cautionary tale of generational greed involving a secret source of limitless treasure. The film occasionally drags following a wonderfully macabre Brothers Grimm-esque opening, but explodes into life whenever the magic money pit is revealed...

- Found your sauce in Tesco...
- That time I pilfered the Italian merchant from Jan van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait and captured him in lino print as a floating phantom. No one bought it but I had fun...

- This is the scene that first came to mind when I heard the sad news. Sheila mouthing Ron's lines as he delivers them is so perfect...

- Revisted František Vlácil’s top notch allegorical folk tale THE DEVIL'S TRAP (1962). Miroslav Macháček superb as the priest hell-bent on persecuting a respected miller who puts his faith in nature over religion, and thus suspected of being in league with the devil...
- El Chupacapybara, is that anything? I did an illustration and got it out of my system, anyhoo...
- Revisited Cronenberg's THE BROOD. Banger flick. The straight-faced commitment to such outlandish material, the rage beasties are genuinely upsetting. Wondered if it was an influence on Weapons - the laser-guided kids as murder weapon. Also the bland male lead uncannily resembles Alden Ehrenreich...
