@BonesAndEllie In terms of classic status there’s no denying that it and The Social Network are his generation defining masterpieces. But his best films are still definitely Zodiac and Gone Girl.

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@TheCinesthetic This is all I could think of during this scene, I think Larry David was more convincing than Pacino

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

Just watched A Complete Unknown.

Give Colman Domingo that Oscar!

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@carouselshotgun Agreed, Pearl is the best film there, but Evil Dead 1-3 is the better trilogy

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@NOTMYJOBFLO This is the woman who was mouthing “please not me” as her 2020 album of the year win was announced

[Narinder Kaur @narindertweets]

38 appearances from Nigel Farage and a staggering dominance of right-wing figures on #BBC's Question Time while progressive voices are silenced. MSM has become a mouthpiece for bigotry and racists, ignoring the real voices of the public. This isn’t balance, it’s bias.

@Boopa1219 I mean, I get what you’re saying and I do think it’s silly to treat it like some big controversy, but intimacy coordinators are there to ensure standards are being upheld. It’s not up to the actors to gauge whether they will or won’t need one and that’s the point.

@evildeadthing Alien: Romulus

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@Evil_Dead_Zero Romulus, easily

@HouseOfHorrorCo 2nd row, all good to great movies I think

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@HouseOfHorrorCo Midsommar is my least favourite but there’s a level of craft and ambition to it where I at least completely get why it’s viewed as a classic, Abigail on the other hand…

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@BeAfraid_horror Both are great, definite comfort movies, I think Prey has to take the edge considering it’s the best film in its franchise while there’s at least two Alien movies better than Romulus

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@evildeadthing Immaculate, really hated the other two

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@evildeadthing 🪤

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@evildeadthing Cuckoo, easy, the most underrated horror of last year

[Hal Kitchen @HalKitchen1]

@kevin_thecritic Trap and Heretic were great, I still really liked Folie á Deux and Nightbitch was absolutely fine.
