My favorite thing to see in L.A. is Puppet Up and it’s not even close. Another phenomenal show and I got to share it with some of my favorite people in the world.

AND I MET MY HERO, BEAR. 😭

This weekend marks the 50th anniversary of THE BEAST MUST DIE - an ensemble horror whodunnit that pauses the narrative with a 'werewolf break' so that the audience can guess the identity of the creature. And honestly, in both life and movies, couldn't we all use a werewolf break?

If someone wants to provide financing so that I can make a feature film expanding the narrative of the Elizabeth Taylor “White Diamonds” commercial, I won’t say no.

BJ’s fabulous article is a perfect highlight of my ongoing belief that there’s a pipeline from Broadway star to horror movie icon because both mediums love theatricality and heightened reality. Honey, sing the house down AND put those teens at camp on notice, okurrr?

If you're hot under the collar for the love triangle prospects of CHALLENGERS, then I have a Gregg Araki movie for you.

While at a coffee meeting, I noticed that the cafe was spinning Hole's 'Violet' and I commented, 'I love that they're playing this,' and a guy two tables over whipped around to say, 'HELL YEAH DUDE.' And honestly, I can forgive the eavesdropping due to the righteous solidarity.

For the 'I can't wait for spooky season' crowd, please note - THEY ALL ARE.

Autumn: General Halloween aesthetics, things are dying. Spooky.
Winter: Very cold. Things are dead. Spooky.
Spring: Dying/Dormant things wake up. Spooky.
Summer: Heat. Chainsaw Massacres. Spooky.

Today feels like a good occasion to say that I certainly wouldn’t mind Cheech & Chong reuniting to make a horror movie.
