find me under a pile of horror movies with my cat or following "that strange noise" down an alley with my recorder. currently most wanted for eating your french fries. (they/them)
if someone is having fun and likes wearing cat ears and that's a cause for you not to take them seriously, you're the cringe one

People saying "those games all suck though" are missing the point so bad it's flown over their head and hit me in the face. THINGS DON'T HAVE TO BE GOOD OR TO YOUR TASTE TO JUSTIFY THEIR EXISTENCE.
This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free.

i am the horror friend here to tell you, if you aren't a fan of splatter flicks or extremely miserable gore, don't let anyone drag you to Terrifier 3. it is not for you

the THINGS my co-writer and i say to each other making our little horror stories
I love voice acting! If I got an email titled "wanna be a cannibal?" in any other profession, I'd be super concerned!

last night, somebody rode their bike by me while in a scarecrow outfit and we locked eyes and i'm afraid i walked into the opening minutes of a horror movie. i hope i'm the final girl

ubisoft disbanding the team behind Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is such a big loss. not only is that legit an all-timer metroidvania, it's also who was left of Rayman

Reminder that I write a free newsletter about awesome DVDs, why they're awesome, and promote a love of movies/filmmaking.

The new issue is on Shaun of the Dead, and I've got a small contest going for those who can guess what I'm covering next!
The second issue of BONUS DISC, my newsletter about DVDs and the special features locked inside, is now live! Come join in on the fun as I revisit Shaun of the Dead (2004) and comb through a DVD full of movie nerd stuff made by movie nerds. bonusdisc.beehiiv.com/p/shaun-of-t...

A romantic comedy. With Zombies.

a haunted house, but it's just your dad saying what a good show last man standing is over and over after you tell him you're a critic
A haunted house, but it’s just people who ask “have you heard of Joe Rogan??” when you say you’re a podcaster
A haunted house, but it's just people pitching you their ideas when they find out you're a writer.

I literally cannot fathom the reception @redracula.bsky.social has gotten. When I had the thought to adapt Dracula in this way, I had no idea I'd be HERE a year and a half later. It's been a dream!
