Is the John Wick series less about assassins and more about dog lovers? My amazing birthday buddy, Professor Stacey Abbott (@profsaabbott.bsky.social), takes me on a walk on the canine side at Fedora.

I was delighted to be able to talk all things John Wick on the @tippingmyfedora.bsky.social podcast. So much to talk about from fight choreography, stunts, Hong Kong hero movies, dogs, art direction, guest stars, and the star presence that is Keanu Reeve. For anyone who loves John Wick.

Hammer to John Wick. Yesterday I was on BBC Radio London talking about Horror and Hammer Studios. Then I recorded an episode of the podcast @tippingmyfedora.bsky.social on John Wick and noir, martial arts, gun-fu, Donnie Yen, the baroque mise-en-scene, and dogs (and much more). #horrorNU #johnwick

Have you noticed a trend this season?

Yes - mostly female vampires! Dracula’s daughter, Hammer’s Mircalla, the Bordello’s Lilith, and here comes another in Italy’s I VAMPIRI…

Dirt in the Gate specialises in showing films that are available on film. So they do tend to be a bit older but they do show quite a range. Something for everyone.
