I thought I was going home today. Instead I found out Fanny and @oldfilmsflicker have ringworm. I’ll have to be away from them for a few of days. For now, between deep cleaning the apartment, PCR tests, etc we have to fundraise. I really hate doing this. gofund.me/9e2668d0d

Join us in wishing a happy birthday to horror legend Brad Dourif, born on this day in 1950. The iconic voice of Chucky, Brad Dourif is an Oscar nominee for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest with a body of work including The Exorcist III, Graveyard Shift & Rob Zombie's Halloween.

my first dispatch out of #SXSW is all about BABY/GIRLS, a doc about teen pregnancy in a post-Dobbs world that can be empathetic, but opaque. my @AustinChronicle review is live: austinchronicle.com/screens/sxsw-f…

SENDER is a compelling, tender thriller about mystery packages, addiction, and recovery. lower & dastmalchian are the MVPs of this one for me! read more in the @AustinChronicle #SXSW26 austinchronicle.com/screens/sxsw-f…

MY BROTHER'S KILLER is an engaging doc that gets thorny when it doesn't grapple with the tension between inherently unjust systems and the desire for progress in law enforcement. i wrote about it for @AustinChronicle #SXSW26 austinchronicle.com/screens/sxsw-f…

i mostly liked the slight, chaotic ERUPCJA. it's a movie about coincidences, friendship, and fate that is at its best when it uses colors and aesthetics to cement its mood. my @AustinChronicle review is live! #SXSW26 austinchronicle.com/screens/sxsw-f…

about to RT my #SXSW26 pieces for the evening crowd!
