- Now Playing: Exploring the Edgar G. Ulmer bluray recently gotten with a return to 1951's THE MAN FROM PLANET X, featuring an Alien who's design unquestionably unnerves me more than a Xenomorph ever could. #EdgarGUlmer #TheManFromPlanetX
- We lost one the very few who could do anything from Comedy to Horror to Fantasy to Drama just as the masters of Golden Age Hollywood could. He carried that ability to delight us for so many years & his loss is cinema's loss. Rest Well Rob Reiner. Thank you for opening up our varied imaginations 💔
- Cheers to @kinolorber.com for stepping up to get two of Jack's Paramount efforts on physical media for dorks like me. February cant come soon enough. Getting mine Pre-Ordered and hoping this is the start of more BluRay Benny to come! #JackBenny #PhysicalMedia kinolorber.com/product/jack...
- Now Playing: Noir Mondial prep for an upcoming chat with @zinshiraz.bsky.social . Tonight sees the FIRST adaptation of Cain's POSTMAN, the 1943 Luchino Visconti film, OBSESSIONE!
- For what its worth, I love Paul Dano. I feel theres something about portions of his energy in There Will Be Blood where he seems to evoke a quiet simmering like Elisha Cook Jr. could. You arent exactly sure of the threat, but a very quiet menace lurks amid the emotions of embarrasment and insecurity
- Belated snap of My Holiday Gifts to myself including a lovely new bluray from @criterion.bsky.social , a triple feature courtesy of Edgar G. Ulmer, and @kristenklopez.bsky.social 's book covering an oft negelectrd viewpoint of film. Excited to dig into it all this coming week!

- Im not happy. If the Disney/Fox merger has taught me anything, its that what will eventually follow includes limiting access to catalogue titles of the past & even outright discarding physical media circulation (unless a boutoque label pays to license). (1/2) variety.com/2025/tv/news...

- Jon M. Chu did it again, Wicked: For Good retained its own amazing identity while giving visual flourish that evokes the echos of an Oz from 86 years ago. And as an extra notice: Colman Domingo did Bert Lahr proud as well. #WickedForGood

- Quiet enjoyed it! Not a masterpiece, but a film that exceeds its confines into something impressive & confident. Coming to the film, one must be prepared for a terrifying tragic poem under the guise of horror mystery. The very last moments alone had me nodding fervently with approval #LaLlorona
- Now Playing: Been a long week of episode prep, video editing, & life period. Settling in now for a new experience of an old story direct from Mexico in the year 1933, LA LLORONA! #MexicanFilm #LaLlorona

- Enjoyed Frankenstein & would recommend. Without getting too in-depth I'll say two things 1) del Toro crafted the film Laemmle Jr. wished he would have had the money to produce w/ content the code would have forbade. 2) Elordi carried Boris' and Lee's spirit w/out neglecting his own unique stamp.
- Day 31 of BallyBOO goes for another double bill, this time tracing the origins of a sub-genre: Slashers & Scream Queens. Its also an excuse to watch 2 of my favorite movies back to back ❤️🎃 Settling in for PSYCHO (1960) & HALLOWEEN (1978) #Psycho #Halloween
- Day 30 of BallyBOO consisted of an afternoon of pod pal Matt Willocks & I kicking back to some spooky flicks together! Loved getting to introduce him to 1939's THE MAN THEY COULD NOT HANG & absolutely floored by our mutual first time watch of the 1962 shocker 'BURN, WITCH,BURN' #FilmsWithFriends
- Now Playing: Day 29 of BallyBOO pays tribute to the grand year of 1931, where Universal unleashed two titans of terror that cemented a genre & changed the course of film history. It's DRACULA followed by FRANKENSTEIN for this evening! #BelaLugosi #BorisKarloff #UniversalMonsters
- Now Playing: Day 28 of the BallyBOO see's the cinematic conclusion of Prof. Quatermass at Hammer Studio's. With Andrew Kier now with the credentials, its Sci-Fi terror that probes the questions of our origins as a spiecies. From 1967, it's QUATERMASS & THE PIT! #Quatermass #HammerFilms
- The Eddie Cantor & Bill Powell ones are 🔥
- I hate gay Halloween, What do you mean you're going as the center clock from the zeppelin in Madam Satan?
- This 💯👏
- Day 27 of the BallyBOO seeks to resume what was started yesterday as I fell asleep on the second half of my double bill 20 minutes in. You could say I was pretty DEAD TIRED.... No , I dont like that either. Anywho, settling in for NOSFERATU : A SYMPHONY OF HORROR #Nosferatu #MaxSchreck #FWMurnau
