YouTube video by The Geek Show

Join me, @scaredsheepless.bsky.social & @autistichorror.bsky.social as we talk about Yorgos Lanthimos. It's on this episode that Dogtooth joined my "that's it!?" list for movies whose reputations are far stronger than the actual material.

Looking at some gigs for my birthday next year, there's one with Armand Hammer (Elucid + Billy Woods). I love their music, individually and together, but I've never been to a hip hop gig outside of a festival.
What sort of vibe are we talking about here? Anyone seen either of them?

This is just a petty thing to moan about, but I am going to do it anyway.
Its really annoying that barely any press screeners work with the internet browser on the fire stick.
Then again, its amazon, so of course its shitty.
I have four for soho horror to do and not one worked.

Enjoyed this one plenty, but it made me want to finally get around to watching clearcut. Did it have a UK blu-ray? I thought it did, but I can find no sign of it ever existing.

Manthan is an amazing film, and the funding of it, the sense of ownership the dairy farmers who paid for it had over the film, the collective impact it had, it's all like a fairy tale from another dimension, given the bleak situation that indie cinema in India finds itself in today...

It is brilliant though, or is it brilliantly stupid? Either way, I enjoyed myself way more than I expected to.
Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie is quite the title, and contrary to our total ignorance to the original series - it has nothing to do with Mr Cobain.

This is weird.
I've experienced horrible news and the shock it gave me. Hope to not experience that again any time soon. Now, I've got some good news today and again - shock. Only this time, I'm feeling numb. Don't think it has sank in yet. Or positive shock is just bonkers, could be that too.

I'm back on the short film train, researching and finding stuff whose tone can help me in my writing process for short 2. When I happen among a short I like, I'm going to add it in this thread.
First, a cute talk on the post-apocalypse story - Bounce House.

All the power in the world to people who dig GDT's stuff, but me? I can't face another adaptation of this fucking thing.
Fan favourite Guillermo Del Toro adds his spin to one of the most spun out book adaptations in cinema history, Frankenstein. But how does his version stack up? Out next Friday on #Netflix.

In the USA the Israelis pay American Politicians $52,000,000 a year to keep them on side.
In the UK it isn't even £1,000,000.
But as you can see they all fall over each other to do their bidding.

#nw killing of a sacred deer for a podcast tonight. I have to ask - why does this have such a strong reputation? I don't get it. I say this as a fan of Lanthimos's work, for the most part, but this one, it's just not doing much for me.

#nw Prince of Darkness (1987) for a podcast recording later. I know full well how unpopular an opinion this is, but it is one of my favourite Carpenter movies. Mainly as it falls in a favourite horror genre, "sciencing spooky shit", you could call it sci-fi horror but it doesn't capture the vibe.
