Direct-to-video sequels are their own special thing, and some of them overcome their budgetary limitations with clever plotting and great performances. 🤔

So is DRACULA II: ASCENSION in that club? Listen to us talk to @kimbot.bsky.social and decide…

I’ve seen every STRANGER THINGS, once, and watching the S5 premiere made me question why we’re still here 😂 It’s felt like every season could have been the last. And as each episode costs ~$60M (!) it feels disconcertingly HUGE but still “TV” in scale somehow. An odd discordance.

De-ageing continues to get better. If I didn’t know better, that opening scene in the new STRANGER THINGS might as well have been shot with the actor 10 years ago.

DRACULA II: ASCENSION finds the vanquished vampire resurrected during an autopsy. @kimbot.bsky.social held the scalpel as we dissected this straight-to-video oddity starring Jason Scott Lee…

A beautiful box set. I’m sure @frankieisswell.bsky.social would agree.

🪦 RIP Udo Kier. The acclaimed German actor, and horror/vampire royalty thanks to his roles in films like BLOOD FOR DRACULA, BLADE, DRACULA 3000, and SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE.

Trump is such a stereotypical keyboard warrior coward. Once he’s in the same room with a man he’s spent months lambasting, he back-peddles and says complimentary fluff.

But you just know he’ll be extra poisonous behind the safety of his phone screen in mere hours/days.
