homoerotic 80s horror movies are all that we have
- david lynch struggled to get financing for his new film right before he passed. john waters just canned a film for the same reason. our greatest artists are aging and no studios are interested in funding the auteurs whose influence shaped the artform while they’re still with us
- john waters, paul verhoeven and david cronenberg are all working on new movies right now. it’s like they saw all the anti-sex scene discourse and assembled the pervert film elder avengersAUBREY PLAZA is set to star in JOHN WATERS’ “Liarmouth” — his first film in over 20 years. Production will begin this summer in Baltimore tinyurl.com/bdf9hbu7
- vintage gay werewolf comics that double as great transmasc metaphors my beloved 💚
- bro what do you mean i should learn how to code or become an influencer. im meant to be an 80s video store clerk recommending gory horror movies to the neighbourhood scamps. im meant to be a small town radio dj who plays too much new wave and gets involved in a local mystery.
- the way that frankenstein's monster invented the ig baddie pose
- will never get people who say that "dated" special effects take them out of a movie. im different. i see a rubber bat fly by with fishing line and im hooting and hollering

- completely in love with the cover art of monthly halloween, a horror-themed japanense magazine from the 1980s
- oh you KNOW david byrne was queening tf out over getting to sing his depression song on live tv!!!
david byrne made a playlist of songs that make him cry recently and now i cannot for the life of me get the mental image of him sitting down and crying to robyn out of my head - in the 80s you couldn't get diagnosed as autistic, you had to become a new wave frontman and figure it out from there
- reminding all men on the 40th anniversary of sleepaway camp that they can and SHOULD still dress like this
- thinking about david cronenberg discussing the bodily autonomy of trans people as a metaphor in crimes of the future on his birthday today. more cis filmmakers should be as cool as this
