#FantasticFest is over, and I ended up writing 6 reviews for @fangoria.bsky.social! They can all be found here: www.fangoria.com/authors/bran...

A huge shout-out of course to the boss man, @philnobilejr.bsky.social, who made it all happen, and who was too kind to plug ‘em in the Fango newsletter. 🤘

The @mickgarris.bsky.social / MASTERS OF HORROR panel at #FantasticFest was actually the best thing I’ve seen all week (OK, maybe besides BUGONIA). My guys.

My next from #FantasticFest! I really loved SHELBY OAKS’ placement in time. Stuckmann has the good.
