RIP Udo Kier. From Suspiria to Ace Ventura via Bacurau, Blade and everything in between, the man and his piercing blue eyes would steal any he popped up in throughout his long and wildly varied career. An absolute powerhouse of presence and versatility that will be greatly missed

Annual reminder about turkey frying safety:
While it lacks the songs & the oomph of the first film, #WickedForGood makes up for it with decent character work, an emotional punch & the powerful performances of its stars. The tunes are less memorable, the plot is messy & the pacing is off but there’s enough going on to deliver a fitting finale

Watching this Squid Game challenge nonsense on Netflix and I’m sorry there are far too many mullets on that look like they were cut with a knife and fork to be taken seriously. Like wtf are we even doing here

New set photos of Werwulf going incredibly hard. I just imagine Robert Eggers shoots are mostly just a wild, feral blood bath and I'm now making it a life goal to get on one
