A box set I co-produced for @eurekavideo topped the @BFI's list of the best Blu-rays of 2024, which isn't a bad way to end my first year as a home video producer. A nice feeling to end the last day at work! Long live Louis Feuillade.

An article for the @BFI inspired by my upcoming #ArtofAction season of human hunting films @showroomcinema (and Mike Tyson’s wild conspiracy theories).

Nearly 100 years after The Most Dangerous Game, films from Revenge to Bacurau to The Hunt have played on the concept of humans hunting each other for sport. In the 21st century, the idea even has its...

Yesterday, I was sent a video of Mike Tyson expressing the belief that the rich pay to hunt humans. He's (probably) just seen too many movies. You can find out where this trope comes from by joining me for The Most Dangerous Game @showroomcinema on Sunday:

I programmed a season at @showroomcinema as part of #ArtofAction themed around people hunting each other for sport! Kicks off next week with The Most Dangerous Game. It’d be lovely to see you if you're in Sheffield. 🎯 . Tickets for the first film here:

I wrote about the politics of 1990s Hollywood action cinema (and, inevitably, 1980s Hollywood action cinema) for the @BFI and #ArtofAction.

It was the era of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dolph Lundgren, Steven Seagal and Jean-Claude Van Damme. But times were changing. Politics were changing. And so did American action movies.

Heading home from @mayhem_festival, but ended on a high with The Paragon and Dark Match. The first is a comedy about petty revenge and the psychic plane for What We Do in the Shadows fans, the second a brilliant horror throwback that pits pro wrestlers against backwoods cultists.

The Last Video Store is my standout from day three of @mayhem_festival – a love letter to VHS culture, the tactility of physical media and Canadian genre filmmaking.
