Quite famous now but was definitely part of the cult sphere when it first came out in the 70s. One of the great examples of when a film can scare you by the information that it leaves out- so many questions by the end that will plague you!

British coming of age film set in a grimy bathhouse. A cautionary tale about being obsessed with a really hot girl who’s older than you. Beautiful, unsettling and so underrated. David Lynch said in an interview in 1982: ā€œthere's never been a colour movie I've freaked out over except one, this thing calledĀ Deep Endā€œ

Holy shit, this was so good. Allow me to reference critic reviews: Noel Murray and Scott Tobias ofĀ The A.V. ClubĀ putĀ Blow OutĀ at #1 of their list of De Palma's besThe quintessential De Palma film, this study of a movie craftsman investigating a political cover-up marries suspense, sick humor, sexuality, and leftist cynicism into an endlessly reflective study of art imitating life imitating art. & In 2023,Ā TimeĀ selectedĀ Blow OutĀ as part of their list 100 Best Movies of the Past 10 Decades, praising it as "a film filled with mistrust, one where the ghosts ofĀ ChappaquiddickĀ and theĀ Zapruder filmĀ lurk in the corners."

The vibes.. the music… it’s just yes. honorable mentions that I don’t think I’ve seen mentioned yet include: -30 days of night (a vampire movie that is very like a zombie movie.. in Alaska..) -lair of the white worm (so kooky and hugh grant is reaaaallly looking good) -midnight mass (mini series) -The Coppola Nosferatu with Winona and Keanu and gratuitous Sapphic makeouts -the vourdalak (the vampire is a puppet and it works) -shadow of the vampire and Herzog nosferatu double feature -kuroneko (for a different take on what a vampire can be) -Nadja (briefly featuring David lynch) -and Habit (especially if you live in New York)

Been a very slow year with not much acting work at all but, last year I managed to get a line of dialogue in the last season of house of the dragon, and also filmed two seasons of a kids show for the BBC. I’m happy I stuck with this wish, even if it’s painful to continue pursuing it sometimes :)

every time I give this a relisten I’m always shocked by how consistently great it is as an album. Obviously, ā€œThe Idiotā€ gets a tonne of praise and deservedly so, and even though this album helms a lot of Iggy Pop’s most popular singles, I never see people talking about it as an album and what it does brilliantly. even with ā€œThe Idiotā€, Iggy Pop was very much performing under David Bowie wing and environment- a lot of dark and brooding electronics and atmosphere which complimented Iggy well but, here he is definitively Iggy Pop. I think people forget that ā€œpunkā€ music (which Iggy hated the label of) doesn’t necessarily fall into a genre, more so an attitude of performance. This is proved time and time again in this album, as Iggy covers styles of hard rock, blues rock, ballads and soul- all unmistakably polished with a punk edge. Punk isn’t the music you play, just how you play it (at least I think so), and it’s so obvious that Iggy and the band just had a blast recording and performing this, they don’t take themselves seriously, if anything, poking fun at the restrictions of rock and pop songwriting in the process. Yet, the album never feels like it’s smarter than you, it’s inviting you in to feel the excitement. Such a blast of a record, if you need a pick-me-up like I did today, give this a whirl!

I didn’t know how to kiss normally. She went in with a French kiss, an ungodly amount of tongue but, I can now tell we were both very nervous and didn't know properly what to do. We were in a cinema and her mates were sat a few rows away but kept looking over to see if we were kissing yet. Coincidentally, we were watching Fast & Furious 7 just after Paul walker had passed- she went to kiss me at the final farewell scene and I genuinely told her to stop & have some respect LMAOOOOOO. I was an awkward kid man, bless her.
