At the movies: The Lords of Salem.

Currently winding up far too small of a theatrical release, you may be fortunate enough to catch this weird, majestic film in a theatrical location. It's a major leap for Zombie, and I can't help but love it. Don't get me wrong, I'd like to see what happened with some of the other subplots from the book, but I haven't been this pleased with a horror film in a long time. Have a read of my extended thoughts over at the Scene, and then see the film.

At the movies: Evil Dead '13.

I got to talk with Jim Ridley about the new Evil Dead. You can read it here. There is some trenchant observation with just a tad of leavening bitchery. I hope you enjoy it.

At the movies: Stoker.

I was given the chance to write about the exquisitely messed-up English-langauge debut for Korean director Park Chanwook, and it's an opportunity that I leapt at. When you see Stoker, and you certainly should, you'll sink into its sensual enchantment and you will want to get new wine glasses. It's not just a testament to Nashville's exceptional film industry, some of the finest artists and craftspeople I've had the pleasure of sharing a mutual horror at our state legislature with, but an example of how you can rope together several disparate elements and turn it into something unexpected and glorious. Not to be missed...

Think P!nk

A few things about one of my favorite popstars and modern divas.

At the movies: John Dies at the End.

You need to see this. Seriously, dude. You need to see this.

Kam chang leepa sank tones, all around.

This weekend, I'll be hosting The Belcourt's midnight screenings of "Sine Yo Pitty On The Runny Kine," starring Pootie Tang. You know you need to be there. Wapatau to the bammies...

A Disco Whispers, 'Perhaps Tonight..."

I had the privilege of writing about Space is the Place, West Nashville's monthly Italo party, for the Nashville Scene this Valentine's Day. I hope to see you there.
