The Traitors are IDIOTS. Have immediately lost interest in The Celebrity Traitors now that they’ve murdered Charlotte Church. Especially when Kate Garraway was right there. #CelebrityTraitors

@sitgesfestival Feels Like Home just won the Melies d’Argent Best Feature prize at @sitgesfestival. That was the jury I was on two years ago. A fantastic film, another of the best films I’ve seen here this year.

And Obsession deservedly won the Youth Jury prize at @sitgesfestival. It’s fantastic - my second favourite film I saw here. I hope it gets a decent poster soon.

In “I Only Came to Use the Phone” Gabriel García Márquez (1978) describes a nightmarish chain of events of how a woman enters a psychiatric hospital in the rain to use the phone but is mistaken for a patient, tries in vain to explain, and is never allowed to leave.

@NerdlyUK Out this week, but also playing @sitgesfestival: Black Phone 2. I was kind of lukewarm on this after seeing it, but it grew on me as I was writing about it. My review for @NerdlyUK: https://t.co/o2Z6JFU6tD

@sitgesfestival This morning’s screening at @sitgesfestival: Sisu II: More Sisu. Not quite on the level of the first one, but still a bloody good time.
