ICYMI, my latest "Outside the Blue Box" article is up on the @thegeekshow.bsky.social Patreon - this month, I tackled DISCIPLE OF DEATH, a deep cut of Brit strangeness featuring Louise Jameson, Rusty Goffe, and the thoroughly fascinating man that was Mike Raven.

NEW REVIEW @thegeekshow.bsky.social ♀️🎞️🍌

Read here for my thoughts on the new restoration of Doris Wishman's DILDO HEAVEN, a digital-video mind melter about womens' sexuality and awkward-looking toy monkeys that just screened at Fantastic Fest courtesy of the awesome @muscledistribution.bsky.social!

The Geek Show @thegeekshow.bsky.social · 15d

As far as movie titles go, this one certainly takes some beating *Cough* From Sexploitation Legend Doris Wishman, #fantasticfest presents the long-lost Dildo Heaven.

NEW REVIEW @thegeekshow.bsky.social 👔🧪🌃

Read here for my thoughts on TIE MAN, a home-made Canadian superhero oddity (just shown at Fantastic Fest) that is, beyond anything else, admirably singular.

The Geek Show @thegeekshow.bsky.social · 17d

Our first piece of #fantasticfest coverage this year is a odd one. Tie Man is a comedic fantasy noir with an unusual vigilante, think #Darkman but with more Ties.

A remake of the oddest kind, the never-predictable Steven Kostanski hits the 1980s sleaze-tastic fantasy movie Deathstalker, and brings it back in a way only he can.

Here in North Yorkshire, it's about time the legacy of James Cook was looked at with big boy pants on, and new Fantastic Fest movie Marama does just that.

Like Graham, we dig Indonesian Horror, and like he says: it's only a matter of time before the major global breakthrough. Is A Woman Called Mother that movie?

One director people could never accuse of being predictable is the eccentric French auteur, Quentin Dupieux. A tradition he keeps up with The Piano Accident.

Didn't think that I'd end up watching a Conan O'Brien clip as research for a review for @thegeekshow.bsky.social unless it was either for MAC AND ME or something Paul Rudd-related. However, I have, and you'll never guess what for.

Derelict is an Anglo-Franco crime thriller that tackles the trauma of the vengeance, marking it out from the usual revenge fair. Out on @101filmsuk.bsky.social Blu-ray @aimpublicity.bsky.social

After all the horror, it's nice to come back down to earth. Well, not nice, the other one. Vincent looks at the impressive super low budget thriller, Derelict.
