Former video store clerk, future corpse. Social media exhausts me, so I'm pretty much just a lurker these days. I make words, find them here: https://linktr.ee/bertsellsgraves

I have a hard time believing this. I've never once seen anything stupid on social media.

I can't possibly think of ANYTHING queer about ReAnimator.

Just saying, I know it's nomination season and all, and not for nothing, but I'm real proud of my story "Cicada Summer," Chthonic Matter, Vol. 3, Issue 2, Summer 2025, hint hint hint. #stokers

Yes yes, I know it's considered "tacky" to advocate for yourself. But if you don't, who will?

You had me at "Frankie Avalon gets stabbed in the dick."

I'm hot and cold on Blank Check, but this Coen series has been nonstop bangers.

Saying A LOT here, but this might be one of my favorite Friday Night Frights experiences. Such a great crowd!

JASON LIVES. The 6th movie is dying franchise had no right being as fun as this one was.

So they could actually be discharged in bankruptcy then?

Bert SG @bertsellsgraves.bsky.social · 7d

This movie is perfect.

Also, the first Armour screening I ever took my daughter to was The Blob, years ago, and she still cites that as a formative horror experience.

Couple of recent stories I'm proud of: "Yonder, Twixt the Vines" (Body Shots, Vol. 1), a tale of queer teens & killer plants in a dying swamp community; and "Cicada Summer" (Chthonic Matter, Vol. 3, Issue 2)), about a pair of hungry ghosts that share a gruesome revelation after a day in the park.

Long ago I wrote (but never finished) a comic about this loser who burns his own face off with acid so that skeletons will have sex with him. Thought it would be funny to give it a shitty EDGY ACTION cover, so I put all of my energy into that and never worked on it again.
