@Maverick_Vo Slaaaaay

But also got a rejection for another show I was pitching from a major local network. So balance I guess...

[Christian Grobbelaar @ChristianTMI]

Watched the final cut of my pilot and cried. In the new year we're gonna smash the rest of post production and then do everything we can to get this show picked up.

@JHBWater we still don’t have water in Ferndale. It’s been a month now since the maintenance.

@rangerjayfilm I love Haunt, Scream and The Strangers: Prey At Night for comfort horror.

@MovieCriticSA Cinemas lately have been total Bedlam. There is no enforcement of rules (and I am not talking about laughing at a funny moment, or jumping at something scary - like have fun!) and it makes the whole (expensive) experience totally not worth it.

[Christian Grobbelaar @ChristianTMI]

I am done going to the cinema. 9 out of the last 10 cinema visits have been plagued by people talking non stop. And not just one group, multiple groups. It's so disappointing going to see a movie you've been looking forward to and then having surround sound chatter throughout.

Hollywood needs to fucking get real with these three hour movies.

@BenJohnson2018 I really should check Twitter more often. If you're still looking. JHB based (but I have accommodation in CT) screenwriter with credits on KykNET & Mzansi Magic.

Hit me up. :)

The older I get, the more I feel like I'm becoming more like Marge Simpson. I just don't have the energy to hate things anymore. Boy, wasn't that movie fun? Isn't Christmas nice? I just think potatoes are neat.

@awardwords I like storyboard fountain. It's super minimal, but gets the job done and lets you get through boards with relative ease.

Hereditary (2018)

[Christian Grobbelaar @ChristianTMI]

Titane is the Frenchest movie I have ever seen.

[Christian Grobbelaar @ChristianTMI]

@chadmichaelward Honestly Evil Dead 2013 looks absolutely incredible and I reference it every chance I get. The Lodge, Hereditary, It Follows, Possessor, It Chapter 1, The Invisible Man and In Fear all bring some really interesting things to the table, visually.

ASIAN HORROR RECOMMENDATION THREAD

Since the spooky season is upon us, I wanted to share a list of underseen Asian horrors! We love Ringu, Ju-On, Train To Busan, etc. but this list will highlight movies that a lot of people might not know about:

Getting my car cleaned today so am I like officially recognised as a grown up or something?
