A sequel to the 2016 Shane Black film, The Nice Guys, starring Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe.

[Christy Kleppinger @cbklep]

Genuinely my top film of the year. This was fun and gross and visually stunning. 10000/10

[Bloody Disgusting @BDisgusting]

Cinderella meets Cronenberg in the body horror movie THE UGLY STEPSISTER, which made an audience member vomit during its Sundance premiere.

Watch the official trailer.

Oh, um, no thank you. I appreciate the offer of the uh *checks notes* weak tornados, but we’re full up on natural disasters this year.

WEATHER ALERT 💨 Storm closing in on Southern California could bring ‘weak tornadoes’ https://t.co/a7u3r6vQUm

Literally like three weeks ago.

[Christy Kleppinger @cbklep]

This week’s Severance was the most aggressively great writing and directing I’ve seen in a long time. Erin Wagoner and Uta Briesewitz knocked that out of the park in every way. 🤯

[Christy Kleppinger @cbklep]

This was my go-to. I think I learned more about movies by wandering the shelves in here than I did at school.

[Shooter McGavin @ShooterMcGavin]

Shoutout to Hollywood Video. The place that was there for us in the 90s when we struck out at Blockbuster.

Excalibur basically rewrote my dna as a kid. I pitch this visual style to @littleklep for every single project.

Excalibur - 1981

[Ghost House Pictures @ghp_tweets]

We did it better... hope this helps 🖤

[Christy Kleppinger @cbklep]

This was genuinely one of the most fun, original, gorgeous debut features I’ve ever seen. Emilie Blichfeldt is a force to be reckoned with in a real way.
Couldn’t have asked for a better kick off to my first Sundance experience!!

[Variety @Variety]

During the #Sundance premiere of “The Ugly Stepsister,” a moviegoer leaned over into the aisle and vomited.

Emilie Blichfeldt’s body horror film has several scenes of crude cosmetic surgery, including its protagonist eating a tapeworm, sewing in eyelashes and enduring a barbaric rhinoplasty. https://t.co/jEvcBa4nCL

Water the root. Enjoy the fruit.

The city I love — my city — Los Angeles, has suffered unimaginable tragedy with these wildfires. From writers to directors, managers to journalists, and every day working folk — ALL these friends need help.

I know I am years late to the party but Naomi Scott is giving a master class in every second of Smile 2. It’s one of those performances that deserves all the recognition.

[Christy Kleppinger @cbklep]

Not to fall victim to nostalgia but I had the most vivid dream where I was wandering through a Hollywood Video and it made me genuinely emotional.

[𖤐 Bri 𖤐 @BriAnimator_]

we still talk about you

[Christian Becker @TheAmazingBeck]

They did

[Christy Kleppinger @cbklep]

Seriously this. Arkasha Stevenson made The First Omen a two hour masterclass in horror directing that I literally think about daily.

[Diego Crespo @thediegocrespo]

I don’t know why we aren’t talking about THE FIRST OMEN all the time. Pretty cleanly the best studio horror movie of the year. Every sequence is directed with the confidence of a seasoned pro and coalesces into a hellscape only captured by a master. I can’t believe it exists.
