This week’s Movie Monday must-watch is a psychological horror. A Tale of Two Sisters is a slow burn story inspired by a folktale that you won’t be able to look away from. 🩸

The only thing better than attending the Access:Horror Film Festival as a guest is attending as a filmmaker. 

The Earlybird deadline is in 10 Days (November 30, 2025): filmfreeway.com/AccessHorror... 

We can’t wait to watch your film!

Monstrous Me is a documentary that harnesses the rich and untold power of horror as a way of reckoning with disability identity through cinematic monsters. We’re asking for a small donation of just $6.66 to help us get the funding we need to bring it to life.
