It’s national Canadian film day… here’s a sneak peak of the movie we made this summer, at home, about home, DRINKING AND DRIVING. Our very own, very low budget, very independent film, coming soon!!

I knew as soon as I saw Priscilla Galvez' A FERMENTING WOMAN w/ Sook-yin Lee that I wanted to offer it a home on the blu ray for Marina De Van's IN MY SKIN. Both feature women who have unusual relationships with their bodies, and both test the gag reflexes of audiences! Get it at severinfilms.com

used part of my $200 bribe from Doug Ford to order a Vinegar Syndrome DVD of The Strings, so I'm feeling very Canadian indeed

If you love quiet horror, Vinegar Syndrome has the 2020 movie “The Strings” (a musician goes to a beach house in the off-season to work on her new album; spooky hijinks ensue.) The soundtrack is beautiful and unsettling. #Horror

I highly recommend jumping on this ASAP if you are in the USA and were planning to donate since the exchange rate is at a record low and will likely climb back up again now. tinyurl.com/castrationmo...
