"Turns out this past couple of weeks there was the first showing of the new Philippe Brothers film, Bring Her Back. And wow, what a journey that was. The theater was absolutely packed. I think everybody did some similar research to find out if that was the film in question. And I was really looking forward to this movie. I thought the trailers looked very strong. I was not a huge fan of the Ph...

"I think that the majority of the films in this franchise are not very good, but then also, you know, I think they contain something that I also see in the new terrifier films. You terrifier a franchise that's absolutely exploding in terms of popularity. But I. A franchise I find very little value in. I think the story is pretty flimsy."

"It'll always be a three way tie. Night of the Living Dead, 28 days later and Hereditary are three of the most like terrifying films that I've seen at multiple stages of my life. And I always go back to all of them just to revisit them and why they bother me. I remember Night of the Living Dead used to come on channel 20 here in Chicago. I don't even know if that channel is exist anym...

"My favorite summer slasher is Jaws, because it's a good classic film, and it's. It's always a great film to watch in the summer. It's set in the summer, so I think that's probably one of my favorites of all time. Even watching it makes you feel like it's summertime sometimes. Beyond that, I don't know. It's probably. It's probably it for me. As far as a slasher, I think Jaws."

"Yeah. Hello, my dear friends. I hope all are doing well. Yeah. This is really interesting question and unique question to be answered that what is your favorite summer slasher? Well, talking about this question, I must say that here summers are we know that it's scorching and sometimes piping hot. That's why I would not prefer any kind of heavy makeup. So so I such put a loose powder and my re...

"For me, it's happiness. If you are going to watch this movie, just forewarning, please go into it and know that this is not a pick up and play film. This is a movie that is tackling a lot of very, very sensitive subject matter and it does it in a weird way of black comedy. And I guess you could call it the suburban drama at the same time, which is very fascinating because it's not a ...

"Oh, Rocky man. Riffraff. Frankenfurter. Oh, my gosh, Magenta. All the characters. My high school senior year and into college early years was really highlighted, or at least the leisure part by midnight movie showings of Rocky Horror. The Rocky Horror Picture Show. One of my best best buddies, and we're still friends. I'm so fortunate, was Riff Raff."

"So I am. I picked this prompt because my best friend who she passed away four years ago, she was a total Rocky Horror fan. She was obsessed with the movie. The movie theme song was the ringtone on her phone. I never really got into Rocky Horror like that, but this jumped out at me because she would have loved this and she would have been all about this being the 50th anniversary. So m...

"That's why that film has aged well. And we don't have a ton of black horror films that have aged well, unfortunately. You have Ganja En Hess, which I think is directed by Bill Gunn. It's a pseudo vampire movie, and there's a lot going on in that movie. I love the cinematography, I love the tone, I love what it does with religion, and I love what it does with fear and black profession...

"It was, it was one of these screenings where you're screaming and doing things and I had no idea what I was doing. But I had some friends guide me through it and it was so fun. Really unforgettable and I love it. And now the cinema, independent cinema in Copenhagen that I volunteer at sometimes, they often show Rocky Horror and it's just a blast every time. And it's really nice to bring it to ...

"I just love basically every episode of the original run with the exception of, I think it was season four when they switched and they sort of experimented with the hour long format. I think they kind of lost some of what made it so special. But yeah, I really love the original Twilight Zone. I do love the sort of later iterations of it as well. They did one in the 80s, they did one in the ear...

"Gut Feeling by Jar Magic is a horror short story that I wrote that I am so excited to share. It's a first person narrative that really puts you in the shoes of the character, the protagonist, the main character, and the story takes place during an organized kidnapping that's going unnoticed by the community. And from the very beginning the protagonist gets like a sense that something is wro...

"I felt like there were some scenes, particularly with the unicorn's magic, that, you know, 10 years ago might have warranted practical effects. And I'm a huge fan of practical effects, but instead they used animation. And I felt like, you know, the unicorns in certain scenes didn't look as well as they should for, you know, such a movie. But I thought that the acting was. Was great."

"So I just came back from watching it last night. I was privileged enough that my school was having an advanced showing before it released in theaters. Shout Out. Superb. Who runs a lot of the events at UC Berkeley? So we saw it at amc and honestly, I could not recommend it more. I thought that it was super, super, super fun."

"Couple of weeks have told me about. So that's definitely being added to my list. But the Buffalo Hunter Hunter is a book that just sounds incredibly interesting. And Stephen Jones, the thing that I think makes his style of horror storytelling so interesting is that he sets a lot of these books against the backdrop of the Old West. And in the case of the Buffalo Hunter, X Hunter takes place in...

"So if there's an actor. If there's an actor to be obsessed with right now, it's definitely going to be Bill Skarsgard. I hope I'm saying his name correctly, but I'm obsessed with him right now. The first time I watched him in a. In a role was when he played it, Stephen King's it, and he played Pennywise. And I had no idea that he was the one that was playing that. That character until I ...

"So I saw the movie Opus this, this past weekend. I saw it, I think one or two days after, after its opening. I really liked it. I thought it was really, really fun. I thought that, you know, trying, you know, to sort of jump around spoilers. I will say I think it was very, very interesting take. I mean I, I'm an avid letterboxd user."

"I think that rebooting Scream, or not quite reboot, but making Scream for a new generation with Scream 5 was the perfect choice to make for the type of films that they are. I mean, for films that are all about, you know, making fun of Hollywood and making fun of these tropes. I think that at a time when people are always complaining about constant reboots and a lack of originality, it ma...

"I would like to recommend the book youk Like It Darker by Stephen King because I love how the book makes me feel so real and creepy. Each story takes you to a place that seems normal at first, but slowly turns darker and more unsettling. He creates an atmosphere where you can almost feel the tension in the air, like something bad is just around the corner. It's not just about scary momen...
