I personally thought Steppenwolf was great. Clear John Ford influences, sort of very sick and twisted version of The Searchers, if you will. 😎 #Steppenwolf Celluloid Screams

Mystery film at #CelluloidScreams was #TheRuleofJennyPen and it's the standout film of the festival so far.

It’s been a wild weekend! Lecturing on Mother/Daughter Trauma in Horror with Cine-Excess, having an excellent time at Celluloid Screams and meeting our new pup!

This year's Secret Film at Celluloid Screams was Geoffrey Rush/John Lithgow starrer The Rule Of Jenny Pen. And it was very good indeed.

Absolutely ecstatic to be a part of the Celluloid Screams Celluloid Screams jury, alongside some killer horror colleagues: Amber T, Josh Saco and Rachel Barker. There were so many wonderful and terrifying films, it was an honour to watch! Decisions revealed at the closing gala ✨

One more glorious day in the bubble here in Sheffield. Some great films lined up today. This year's Cell has paced itself and standards are high, themes are broad. I think #TheWailing is trying to convince me to bump it up the personal top 5 this morning.

Get Halloween ready with hmv Sheffield 🎃 #Sheffield #sheffieldcitycentre

🩸NightTide Magazine had a great time at our 1st Celluloid Screams! Our first review up is Frankie Freako! 'There was such an air of gross-out, toilet humor in 80’s horror that’s been missing from modern films. Comin’ in hot to fill that hole is Frankie Freako.' nighttidemag.com/2024/10/31/fil…

PUPPET MASTER: THE RULE OF JENNY PEN (Celluloid Screams Review) Through the false sense of security with films like The World According to Garp, Harry and the Hendersons, and god awful Footloose, we forget that horror especially loves John Lithgow. nighttidemag.com/2024/10/31/fil…

I adored Grafted! (Celluloid Screams Review) Exploring body horror & the power of pretty, it centers on Wei, whose raised Port Wine stain may be the key to creating a pathway to beauty or a highway to havoc. nighttidemag.com/2024/10/31/fil…

It’s so hard to fund films so… Roman Coppola, Eduardo Sanchez and I are teaming up with Decentralized Pictures & Arts3 Foundation to give 2 horror filmmakers $25k each to make a horror short! We’ll help with production and much much more! follow DCP for info on the new HORROR initiative!

Thank you Vice Press & Celluloid Screams for screening Halloween 🎃 last night at the Showroom Showroom Cinema .So good to see it on the big screen. Great poster too Matt Ferguson James Henshaw #Halloween #vicepress
