I'm proud to have recorded a video essay for the 4K release from Vinegar Syndrome / Cinématographe! It's the queer classic. Cher, Karen Black and Mark Patton. This film is powerful - and ready to shine brighter than ever. Sincerely!

Re-heat the leftovers and dig in 👅 Catch my essay for "Macabre" on the new Vinegar Syndrome 4K! It is an honor to champion Jane Baker. She has a taste for the finer things in life ;)

I never could have believed contributing to a VS release - and I really need to thank everyone. Especially, the V-Cinema discord for archiving the world's most overlooked cinema. I shout out a lot of…
I wrote a booklet essay for the 88 films blu-ray!!! Thank you to my Letterboxd friends for encouraging me (and surviving so many Groper Train titles in their feed). I'm proud to be a pinku addict from this app. The rot of our VHS is better than any film festival.
