I went long with Freddy himself, Robert Englund, for Letterboxd. Surreal to have him do the voice at you. You can read it below. Yes, I ask him about killing Burt Reynolds onscreen, don’t worry.

An honor of a lifetime to chat with Radu Jude, one of my favorite filmmakers of all time. I was left unsatisfied by his thoughts on AI but so moved on his take that TikTok has become the tool for modern folklore. A walking contradiction and I couldn't have hoped for anything less. Read it below.
"I envy how, if you see one second of Wes Anderson, you say, 'Oh, that’s a Wes Anderson movie. Of course.' I’m not able to do that." Radu Jude has a wild conversation with @brndnstrssng.bsky.social about Dracula and expanding the boundaries of cinema:
“Cinema Can Be Bigger”: Radu Jude on Dracula, AI, and One Battle After Another

Few filmmakers mean more to my sensibilities than Larry Fessenden. Never would’ve dreamed I’d get to write some words about one of his best let alone spend a Friday night with him helping out at his signing. Always meet your heroes even though he’d bust my balls for saying that

As her wonderful debut Queens of the Dead hits theaters this weekend, I interviewed fellow Pittsburgher Tina Romero about the film, following in her father's footsteps and bringing the Zombie into the future. Read it here:
