I had never seen anything quite like THE FURIOUS before. Unrelenting, generous, precise, virtuoso. Accutely aware of the genre's past while forging a way forward. Some action design ideas are pretty unique.

A 20th anniversary acreening of the legendary cult film FUNKY FOREST: THE FIRST CONTACT. A surrealist anthology epic from co-directors Katsuhito Ishii, Shunichiro Miki and Hajime Ishimine. Special thanks to @thirdwindow for making this possible!

This year's lineup includes the Toronto Premiere of Charlie Roxburgh EVIL PUDDLE, starring Matt Farley as a hopeless romantic whose irresponsible exploitation of ancient Pilgrim magic has sinister consequences in this delightful tribute to Irwin Allen disaster films.

My bud @peterkapow.bsky.social was too tired to do dankness this year... but circumstances gave him the resolve to do it to support the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund and Islamic Relief Canada. AND he's showing the latest Motern film EVIL PUDDLE! LET'S FUCKING GOOO universe.com/dankness2025

THUNDERCRACK (1975) is not Midnight Movie #10 but it’s campy, sexy and hysterical.

Peter Kuplowsky @peterkapow.bsky.social · Jul 24

WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER (2001) is not Midnight Movie #9 but it’s just as surgical and niche in its spoofing.

1 4

Peter Kuplowsky @peterkapow.bsky.social · Jul 24

THE PHANTOM MENACE (1999) is not Midnight Movie #8 but it is a prequel set many years before its first iteration. It also drops you into a wildly dense universe of factions and freaks….

1 2

Peter Kuplowsky @peterkapow.bsky.social · Jul 24

NOTHING BUT TROUBLE (1991) is not Midnight Movie #7 but it’s the most abject and hilarious exercise in poor taste since PINK FLAMINGOS- wait maybe I should have used that film….

1 1

Peter Kuplowsky @peterkapow.bsky.social · Jul 24

GOD TOLD ME TOO (1976) is not Midnight Movie #6 but it’s as profane and comes from the co-creator of one of the most notorious exploitation films in recent memory.

1 1

Peter Kuplowsky @peterkapow.bsky.social · Jul 24

DELICATESSEN (1991) is not Midnight Movie #5 but it’s similarly darkly whimsical. And an overdue feature debut.

Peter Kuplowsky @peterkapow.bsky.social · Jul 24

HOT FUZZ (2007) is not Midnight Movie #4 but this director does conduct bloody bedlam in a small town.

MY FATHER IS A HERO (1995) is not Midnight Movie # 3 but it kicks as much ass.
