Physical media, baking, standing stones, these are a few of my favourite things.

Got a really good #lastfourwatched this week, all cinema or film club in a pub basement watches.

We get Joan Crawford at her most unhinged, the genocide in Gaza represented in microcosm, the most highly rated film on #Letterboxd and the 🤯 movie.

On Sunday evening I had the honour to meet the great Lloyd Kaufman at a screening of Tromeo and Juliet. So wonderful to encounter this utter sunbeam of a man who is still so dedicated to us fans. And also the lovely Patricia Kaufman who is also delightful.

#nowwatching Thirst (1979), an Australian cult/conspiracy exploitation film I first saw at @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social and loved it so much I had to grab a copy at the last Indicator sale.

(P.S. @indicator.bsky.social plz add Razorback and Next of Kin to your ozploitation line)

It’s “Oops, all seventies!” in this #lastfourwatched

An almost perfect run of communism spoilt by a last second Shaw Brothers. Three East German sci-fi glam disco sagas full of the glorious future of socialism followed by Chang Cheh showing how the disabled are still deadly.

It’s #lastfourfriday

We have suspenseful Hitchcock goodness, high stakes accountancy, a year in the life for some nice and ordinary people and the absolute worst porno I have ever seen.

Just put it in a sensible location and it will work itself out.

So Trump is sending in the military to invade Venezuela and is right now bombing Caracas. This won’t end well for anybody anywhere. If he actually puts boots on the ground I bet things will get out of hand very quickly.

I think mine might be worse. 😕

For my first #lastfourwatched of 2026 we have the ping pong movie that’s not actually about ping pong, brits trying to stop yanks from getting everyone killed, a new years caper in the far future of 1999 and the most 2026 film of 1987.

Christmas time is a time of ghost stories traditionally, so I’m going to be honouring that by watching the classic Ghost Stories For Christmas while wrapping my Christmas shopping. (Which I have now completed)

It’s #lastfourwatched Friday!

We have a very interesting gender bender twist on Jekyll and Hyde, an unfortunately disappointing Stephen King adaptation, Alice Guy’s recounting of the Paris Commune and the story of the most Japanese man who ever lived.

I had to wade through multiple surprise rivers to get to @cubecinema.com but it was worth it for their Cher party (guest staring Nic Cage and the moon)

It’s a game of two halves for my #lastfourwatched

First we had queer Chinese romance and character dramas followed by a bonkers Rock Hudson melodrama.

After that it’s the manliest films ever made with the first two Predator films, rewatched to prep for Predator: Badlands

#nowwatching It’s the day after #Halloween so it’s apt to watch The Day After Halloween (1979), or Snapshot if you’re outside the US.

Plus after a weekend of Ozploitation at Forbidden Worlds I’m hankering for some more Australian goodness.

Getting ready for a midnight #halloween screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show at @wshed.bsky.social and on getting into the theatre I see there’s a script for audience participation?

Starting to wonder just what I’ve gotten myself into!

My penultimate watch for #hooptober is the infamous 1992 broadcast that cased an uproar, GHOSTWATCH!

I was too young to see this back then, but I hope I’m grown up enough to endure Parky meeting a ghost. Been saving this just for Halloween!

It’s #lastfourfriday and I’m finishing up my #Hooptober list

We have Palestine’s first horror movie, my annual rewatch of WNUF and John Carpenter’s almost cozy ghost story.

Plus there’s my first watch of the BFI’s melodrama season. Fell in love with Jane Wyman ❤️

Day two of @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social and here is where we get to see some right dinkum boguns getting up to a bit of right nasty mischief.

Having myself an autumnal treat before the second half of Forbidden Worlds gets going. Pumpkin spice, big cookie and a heartwarming tale of adorable small town people (and serial murder).

After having to miss the last couple I’ve finally made it back to the Big Scream edition of @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social

Ozploitation is one cinematic rabbit hole I’ve wanted to get deeper into for a while. Those Aussies know how to have a good bloody time

My #lastfourwatched has an unintentional theme: ladies being extra.

We have anime ladies going crazy, German ladies getting arty and fabulous, twin ladies getting stabby and old timey lady getting spooked.

I have just survived three and a half days of dimension hopping, murder, ghosts and hell portals at @mayhemfilmfestival.bsky.social and I’m a bit tired. But I had an absolute blast! Nothing but hits all festival. Must now sleep. 😴

And in five days I’m doing it again at Forbidden Worlds! 😳

Back for day two of @mayhemfilmfestival.bsky.social and the film that got me to come all the way to Nottingham, CHESS OF THE WIND.

Been watching a fair bit of Iranian film this year, so I’m eager to see this almost lost pre-revolutionary era masterpiece.
October 17, 2025 at 12:44 PM
Started off my first ever trip to @mayhemfilmfestival.bsky.social with my first ever world premiere of a feature film, GAME.

A delightful mix of nineties rave culture, Rear Window, The Most Dangerous Game and Penda’s Fen. It’s really good!
