It's been a long journey, but my book on V-Cinema (aka my first academic monograph) is finally a thing you can hold and read, thanks to Routledge publishers

Hard to believe it's been more than 6 months since the release of 'Fate in Film,' published by Wallflower books. Many thanks to those who've let me talk about it and/or spread the word: @drjonty Book Cellar Uncharted Books Rebecca Crown Library The Daily.

You Hurt My Feelings is a delight. Holofcener's dialogue feels particularly effortless in Louis-Dreyfus' hands.

Such an honor to contribute to the LARB. Check out my piece on cinematic absence in Mark Jenkin's 'Enys Men' here!

Dead Reckoning is the first in the MI series that feels like a joyless exercise. An oddly muted retread of Fallout.

A Thread of Violence sets a new bar for true crime: critical, thorough, thrilling - but never salacious.

Wasn't as taken with Talk to Me as others seem to be, but enjoyed it nonetheless. Some words, courtesy of Film International. filmint.nu/danny-and-mich…

Who the hell puts The Idiot's Guide to Wills and Estates in a little free library?

Some thoughts on Hlynur Pálmason’s exhausting and altogether remarkable Godland. thebigpicturemagazine.com/new-release-go…

Critics comparing Immaculate to extreme cinema are due for a Martyrs rewatch.

A truly great horror film is scary both in the moment and in retrospect, and usually for very different reasons. Case in point: The Exorcist, whose family dynamics are deeply unsettling upon rewatch.

An excerpt from a fascinating 2022 book by Thomas M. Puhr from Wallflower Press's Short Cuts series, FATE IN FILM: A DETERMINISTIC APPROACH TO CINEMA. Not surprisingly, given the topic, many of the films discussed are #horror films Columbia University Press horrorhomeroom.com/fate-in-film-a…

With the new Nosferatu right around the corner, there's no better time to dig into some German expressionist-inspired tales of terror, courtesy of BearManor Media

Wanted to exercise my 100-words muscles a bit: it's been a minute. Some thoughts on Alexandre Koberidze's beguiling 'What Do We See When We Look at the Sky?' screenicebergs.blogspot.com/2024/12/100-wo…

“Author Christopher McKittrick makes a persuasive case for celebrating the consummate professional Miles became rather than mourning the icon she never was….” Thanks to Film International & Thomas M. Puhr for the review of my book about VERA MILES! #classicfilm filmint.nu/vera-miles-the…
