Ariel rules!
HEAR HEAR.
Your post is the first time I’m realizing this film is a remake of a movie that I love.
How can it be that Wes Craven has been gone ten years today? Time goes too fast, man. ❤️🩹
Did you leave the apostrophe out of that statement on purpose?
Who did? Stephe?
I would wager that 95% of them are my fellow Americans. 🤦
Agreed. I actually noticed it long before I noticed the “Stephe”.
A man with this profile photo just told me I need to brush up on my horror knowledge.
It’s Thursday, my friend.
It’s Thursday.
Where are you?! I apparently don't understand the Earth.
Where is it still Wednesday morning?!
On Wednesday?!
It's past noon on Wednesday! You did it! You made it over the hump! Pat yourself on the back!
Yes. You. Do.
This looks awesome!
What were you doing tonight? I was hanging out with the best human around.
Look what just arrived, @clarkcollis.bsky.social! Can’t wait to tear into it!
I’m kind of speechless with this one. I can’t imagine the kind of person who continues to make the argument that it doesn’t count as real starvation if the kids were already sick.
Yeah, god it’s been a nightmare!
2AM. Still sitting on the plane. So tired.
It’s actually seven. We do it a lot. But we thought the short flight might be worth it. Wrong!
Our 45 minute flight from NYC to Richmond was delayed 90 minutes. After we boarded, we taxied out to the runway and the pilot then said the flight was cancelled. Then, 10 minutes later, he said it was not cancelled. We landed in Richmond 75 minutes ago and have just been sitting on the plane. Oof.
My two year old watches ONE friggin’ performance by David Patrick Kelly and now I’m stuck with this.
Oh rad! I’ll track it down!
Today I learned that the Harmonia Gardens set for HELLO DOLLY! was reused the following year for BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES.
Yeah. It breaks my heart. He's such a good egg, and has given so much of himself to so many.
Spotted inside Essex Market.
Fessenden’s in WEAPONS?!
4K costs a fortune to produce, but I’m certainly hoping it happens one day! In the meantime, the new extras on this disc are amazing!
Thank you so much, both then and now!
Whatever you all are up to this weekend, I hope it's filled with good cheer. You deserve it.
It's great except for that awful, awful Perry Trenchard! They need to quit giving that jerk a platform!
Excuuuuuuuuuuse me?! variety.com/2025/film/ne...
The WE ARE STILL HERE 10th Anniversary Blu is available on Aug. 5! Pre-order today! It rules! selects.darkskyfilms.com/products/we-...
♥️
God, I hope soon!!! Thank you so, so much for checking them all out! You're amazing!
This message made my day.
Wait, really?! 😂
10 years ago we went into the cold to make a movie about grief, ghosts and bad bets with unspeakable evil. What @tedgeoghegan.bsky.social, Karim Hussain, @barbaracrampton.bsky.social, Andrew Sensenig, Larry Fessenden, Lisa Marie & Monte Markham put on screen exceeded its budget & all expectations.
I’m loving how much people are loving the new NAKED GUN movie. I won’t get to see it until it hits VOD, but I’m excited to be excited about it!
@corybooker.com Seriously?
Thank you for being a legend!!!
Bring on the octalus!
I've been away from home for two weeks, working in Montreal and missing my family. My wife and son were supposed to fly up this morning and spend four days with me, but their flight just got cancelled and how they don't come up until late tomorrow night and I'm so freakin' sad. Bah.
As a Murder She Wrote superfan, I've always disliked that theory. First, the killers *always* admit their crimes and are very often caught completely red-handed and second, Jessica Fletcher is a totally brilliant author who puts all professional criminologist to shame, and I like her like that.
Can't wait.
I assure you that it's very possible to acknowledge the massive positive impact a certain just-deceased sports performer had on your childhood while simultaneously acknowledging that he was a wildly racist ultra-MAGA creep.
It's great, even though my favorite somehow didn't crack the list!
I'm afraid so. Dipping simply doesn't satisfy us anymore.
We riot if you don't drink every mystery sauce.
Ozzy is one of like 3 people in Decline of Western Civilization Part 2 that comes off as a decent human being and I always love the scene where Penelope Spheeris interviews him making breakfast while he explains the ups and downs of the business.
Oh yeah, and unremarkable gait. haha
Also Level 1 here. Inability to maintain eye contact, obsessive-compulsive behavior, social anxiety, issues with casual communication, and in no way needed to be formerly diagnosed—obsession with horror trivia.
You did the adult autism tests too? I decided to get a proper diagnosis earlier this year after realizing I was failing all of my son's toddler autism tests (that he was passing with flying colors). My doctor called me and said, "Yep, you're mighty autistic." I asked if that was the medical term.
GRIMPLES!!!
Aww, thanks! I love it when that movie gets mentioned!!!
WATCH WEIRD SLASHER MOVIES! xo
Dude's not even mayor yet and he's already cleaning up the city!!!
It no longer surprises me when a trailer's credit block has 25 producers listed on it. Lookin' at you, silly new RED SONJA movie.
Oof! Did you then climb to the very highest shelves simply to show them up?
I was just standing behind a very old man in line at the pharmacy. When he walked up to the counter and gave his birth year, it was the same as mine. Oof.
There's an all-new edition of Final Exam Horror Trivia happening at 2PM this Sunday, July 13th, at Rockbar! Join us for five rounds of expert level trivia, celebrity surprises, drink specials, tons of killer prizes, and the best community the horror scene has to offer! Mark your calendars now, NYC!
Just watched @tedgeoghegan.bsky.social 's _Brooklyn 45_ again. It's officially one of my comfort movies now. I've written some good things, but one of these days I'll write something like this. Not exactly like this, of course. Something that's mine.
Thank you so, so much. I really needed this today! I put my whole heart into that film and it means a lot when people react to it.
James Gunn's SUPERMAN is a romantic, exciting triumph. Big, beautiful... but so many snakes! Snakes in virtually every scene! Crawling the expanse of all backgrounds, slyly wearing human clothes, even falling from the sky! An odd creative choice, but somehow works! Bring on the larger DC Universe!
The disc is amazing! I've been digging through it this afternoon!
Aw jeez! Thanks so much, Taylor! You rock!!!

Verrrrrrrry rare physical media purchase for me, but I couldn’t resist.
It is a beautiful, top-tier, and consistently difficult film about an unassuming outsider stumbling into a very rural Australian community ruled my alcohol and baked by the sun. It is the DELIVERANCE of Australia. Warning: it does feature a real kangaroo hunt. Not to be missed.
One of my absolute favorite “difficult” films arrived via Australia Post today - and I cannot wait until the hottest day of the year to watch it while drinking seven fat cans of Fosters. @umbrellaent.bsky.social
Time to get up, it's another beautiful day in dumb fuck ghoul world
Thanks for all the kind words today, friends. I took your advice and did my best to turn things around. I appreciate all of you more than you know. Have a great night, all.
It's not even 10AM and I'm already having a rough day. Woke up stressed, my son had a breakdown over not being able to push a button he wanted to push, and I'm utterly buried in days' worth of work that all needs to be done in about fourteen seconds. What do you all do to relax in times like this?
Massive Attack via Instagram.
Thank you, Facebook, for removing this potentially dangerous photo I posted twelve years ago.
I feel far worse for the average, hard-working folks who don't have insurance. One quick visit like that and their lives are gone.
This hurts my heart.
Due to some breathing issues, my toddler son had to be placed in the ICU a few months back, at the hospital where my wife works. We have thankfully insurance, which thankfully covered nearly the full expense of the three-day visit. The full expense of the three-day visit, you ask? $198,000.
Happy Pride, bot!
Congrats! It’s looks like it was a ton of fun!
Zohran Mamdani: people should have clean water Interviewer: water? the very liquid that Hamas drinks?
Just keep responding to everyone with this, since it’s such a big deal to you. Me? I’m going to be more worried about the 98% of all predators who are straight. Happy Pride.
I’d be far more concerned with straight people.
You can caption a photo with any text you want. It doesn’t make it real.
Hey NYC! We’ll be up at PrideFest (4th Ave, between 14th and Astor Pl.) in a little bit if you wanna come say hi and hang out!!!
Since its inception, Final Exam's home has been Rockbar, a gay-owned dive bar best known for bear, leather, and kink events. They're also one of the most inclusive gay bars in NYC, and proudly open their doors to all genders, every spectrum of the LGBTQ+ rainbow, and - yes - the straights. <1/2>
It's Pride Weekend in most places around the globe (including my city, NYC), so this bears sharing again. Be loud. Be proud. Be safe.
Hey NYC! It's been a while, but Final Exam is back with an all-new live edition at 2PM on Sunday, July 13! Join trivia hosts @tedgeoghegan.bsky.social and #MichaelGingold at Rockbar for cold drinks, warm community, and piles of those incredible prizes you've come to expect from us!
"Vibe warfare" made me do a spit-take.
RIP.
You win.
Post the same actor in two roles that show their range
I'll never understand how H. Jon does not change his voice AT ALL, yet always manages to deliver completely different performances that 100% work.
Wait... this is a real email? Jesus. And I think the stuff I send is ridiculous.
FYI, this post is not a joke.
