@what_scream 🖤🖤🖤

@NickyRR @EvolutionPod What a movie 🖤

Bloody lovely bumping into @michaeljblyth yesterday. Decided to use one of his old @EvolutionPod episodes to programme my evening viewing.

@CarineinAlbion Oh god, that scene 😭

Absolutely floored by Andrew Haigh's ALL OF US STRANGERS at #LFF2023. Unbelievably good. However, as a single gay man in his 40s who grew up in Croydon, that film really should have come with a trigger warning. I fear I may never stop crying.

@NickyRR Actual footage of me in the screening...

@michaeljblyth Must admit, I deliberately avoided this one as I know I'd be an uncontrollable mess.

@EvolutionPod (To clarify, he wasn't)

@EvolutionPod I told the other kids at school that my dad was the presenter.

I was obsessed with this show. Any other fans of Knightmare?

@NickyRR Oh you 🖤

Doing my #LFF2023 homework and, lord, I'm missing automatically adding everything @michaeljblyth programmed.

@NickyRR @TheMovieMike My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time, Nicky x

@TheMovieMike @michaeljblyth you two will be delighted to hear I've run out of cinema options to the extent that I'm about to see W*s A*ders*n do his film again.

@CasparSalmon Yeah. Oh well. Hate you forever.

@CasparSalmon Oh go on then... Leave What’s the Frequency, Kenneth? Near Wild Heaven Laughing So Fast, So Numb

@EvolutionPod Only 3% for THE GUARDIAN? I demand a recount.

As voted for by patrons, we’ll be discussing CRUISING (1980) in depth for our William Friedkin special, coming soon to Patreon!

🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨 This week, some burglars get more than they bargained for…@michaeljblyth joins me to discuss both the sublime and ridiculous with Wes Craven’s THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS and David Fincher’s PANIC ROOM. Out now!

I’m not saying it was his best, but it’s my favourite 🖤

How do Wes Craven and David Fincher use the geography of the home to crank up the horror? 🏡 This Friday, @michaeljblyth and I discuss THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS (1991) and PANIC ROOM (2002).

@NickyRR Oh stop (but don't, y'know, actually stop)

Here he is, my favourite film programmer.

I made a website. Please check it out and share with anyone you think might be interested... michaeljblyth.com

@ceddarz I actually think he's gotten a bit younger 🤯

@michaeljblyth I would die too. Amazing how he’s barely aged in 25 years!!

I spent the afternoon with Gregg Araki today. Teenage me dies. (41 year old me also dies) #SundanceLondon
