The Film You Are About To See by @haleynewlin.bsky.social is an old school slashery creature feature that pays homage to the genre as well as horror movies of old. It's whiplash action and goosebump inducing vibes will leave you breathless. Highly recommend you pre-order.

I finished @haleynewlin.bsky.social's THE FILM YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE while on our cabin trip, & I absolutely loved it (made me cry)! Since I gave myself a dumb injury while on that trip & am kind of bed ridden, I've decided to recreate the movie marathon from the book. First up, THE TINGLER (1958)!
