If you see me posting here, remind me I have too many books, BluRays, DVDs, comics & games to get through to be wasting time on socials. Those backlogs aren’t going to clear themselves.

Saw Udo Kier on stage in Berlin in 2019 at the premiere of ‘Iron Sky 2’ (a film I am happy to defend). He played Hitler riding a T-Rex called Blondie, and was having a whale of a time at the premiere being a) very drunk and b) pleased as punch about the line ‘Sieg Heil, Mutter Ficker!’ Total legend.

Scratch ‘n’ Sniff cinema is the future!
This thing absolutely stinks, and I’m concerned it’s going to contaminate my messenger bag before I can get it home and get it safely in a ziplock bag.

I’m on a train from London to Manchester catching up on my backlog of @2000ad.bsky.social, and the many announcements utilising the ‘See it, Say it, Sorted!’ slogan are giving me ‘Be Pure! Be Vigilant! Behave!’ vibes.

Huge thanks to @scoutthehorizon.bsky.social for another brilliant @sohohorrorfest.bsky.social. Another triumph and a real highlight of the year. Looking forwards to next weekend’s SoHome selection which I’m sure will be amazing.

Shoutout for the short film ‘Atom & Void’ shown at @sohohorrorfest.bsky.social alongside the feature ‘ICK’.

One of the best short films I’ve seen this year (and possibly ever).

Day 2 - Film 6
The originally programmed ‘I Bury The Dead’ got pulled by the distributor for ‘reasons’. Its replacement was ‘ICK’. Great fun! A combination of ‘The Faculty’, ‘The Blob’ and ‘The Thing’ all wrapped in a big MAGA allegory and with a killer soundtrack.

Ngl, I preferred the ‘Whirled Cinema’ branding. Given the location and exterior it now unfortunately gives the vague impression of being an adult cinema club from the 60s/70s if you didn’t know any different. Maybe that’s what they were going for. Nonetheless, I’m here!

If you want to tell Labour that cosplaying as Reform is both stupid & inhumane fill in this questionnaire.

It’s a bullshit questionnaire worded as if the whole thing is a done deal, has badly worded questions and is riddled with double negatives that seem designed to confuse, but nonetheless.
