I fucking love THE RED MASK, out of Screamfest. It's a meta-slasher that hits all the right beats. It references The Strangers, Funny Games, and Scream while also doing its own clever thing. My @bsidesbadlands.bsky.social review! bsidesbadlands.com/the-red-mask...

ScreamFest 2025: ‘The Red Mask’ is a smash in the making -

'The Red Mask' plays Screamfest, is directed by Ritesh Gupta, and stars Helena Howard, Inanna Sarkis, Kelli Garner, and Jake Abel.

If Gen AI has million haters, then I am one of them.

If Gen AI has 10 haters, then I am one of them.

If Gen AI has one hater, then I am THAT ONE.

If Gen AI has no haters, that means I'm dead.

If the world is pro Gen AI, then I am against the world

Until my last breath, I’ll always hate Gen AI

I love black and white films. I think my favorite decades of horror are 1940s-60s

DEAD BY DAWN, out of Screamfest, is an unfortunate mess. As the love child of StageFright (1987) and Opera (1987), it’s neither as compelling as those classics nor inventive enough to stand on its own. My review! bsidesbadlands.com/dead-by-dawn...

ScreamFest 2025: ‘Dead by Dawn’ will make you yawn -

'Dead by Dawn' plays Screamfest, is written and directed by Dawid Torrone, and stars Sylwia Boron and Bartlomiej Topa.
