Tomorrow has the chance to be such a *huge* day.

The missing link here is Nobuo Nakagawa’s Ghost of Yotsuya—which desperately deserves a restoration, alongside other greats of Kaiki cinema

Such a damn masterwork. The primal drums of the opening, how it marries slow burn dread with feral emotion, how bizarrely experimental yet beautifully classical it is. Better than Onibaba by my reckoning. Love Kuroneko.

Not posting the soundtrack list to Spider-Man: Brand New Day but Michael Giacchino remains undefeated when it comes to super specific puns

I'm excited to finally share that my @nighttidemag.bsky.social essay investigating the etymology of "J-Horror" is being printed in my colleague Tom Mes' amazing book! I grew up reading Tom's work, so this is really a hell of a thing that I can't believe is real. On sale 8/27 at Frightfest!

I know “J-Horror” makes for snappier headlines but while all J-Horror = Japanese horror, not all Japanese horror = J-Horror. When describing anything outside of 1988-2008 (w/ limited examples up to 2010) it just sounds impatient & deeply incurious, like calling every horror survivor a final girl.

After working on this case professionally, I need there to be full closure on what happened to the Yuba County Five and for someone to find Gary Mathias.

COLONY is a gory delight. I'm such a mark for movies that make a contagious cosmic gumbo of hive mind horror and Irwin Allen disaster movies. It's a film about stepping up and working together, especially when the dead have you beat on that front! What a blast. #Fantasia2026

The soundtrack for DRIVE is pretty much untouchable, and it all kicks off at 100% with Kavinsky's Nightcall. It just makes an ordinary night out feel so epic. I think about the cut at 2:07 between Gosling hitting the lights and the overhead synth sting way too much. A day of tragic losses. RIP.

This is so damn heartbreaking. RIP to a man who made such beautiful, transcendent music www.bbc.com/news/article...

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY – Man, my favorite thing about the Holland run is that he just *gets* both Peter Parker and Spider-Man. A good kid trying his best to make everyone's lives better, even in spite of others' (and his own) limits. Surprised at how choked up I got during this one!

I had a great time with Takashi Shimizu's latest, THE MOUTHS. This adaptation of a novella by Sesuji (About a Place in the Kinki Region) takes some remarkable formal swings – has a Brechtian kinship with The Vast of Night and Monolith as it does his previous Ju-on films. Fun stuff. #Fantasia2026
