Backrooms got my vote for one of the best films of 2026.
There’s been plenty of bangers this year, but I keep thinking about this one because of Parson’s ambitious scope and drive as a young person in film.
Review live on ABC.

Leviticus is another standout Aussie horror from 2026. Its modern, queer, and has a fresh twist that really works.
Review is live on ABC.

And that concludes my clean out of freelance work promo! Hopefully I keep things up to date now.
Penny Lane is Dead is an Aussie indie horror by Mia Kate Russell. I really dug it.
Full review live on ABC.

I’m an outlier but, as high as my expectations were, I genuinely did not enjoy The Odyssey (and PLEASE read my review before assuming why): abc.net.au/news/2026-07-16/t… #TheOdyssey
Ah, small country Australian towns: where the authentic Indigenous art is sold right next to golliwogs 🙃
Sure. This may as well happen.
I'm in WHO Magazine talking about indie horror like Backrooms and Obsession: who.com.au/entertainment/mov…

I’m at that stage of life where I have to choose to fix only one of several pressing medical issues, in order to not go broke and homeless. Just need to decide whether I want to sleep, not have migraines, or not have debilitating neck, jaw, shoulder and chest pain!
I can’t imagine watching Widow’s Bay in the summer. I’m in Australia, where it’s winter right now (rain, wind, darkness) and it so perfectly matches the vibe
Come to Widow’s Bay Shepposting on Facebook, we’re putting Mayor Tom Loftis in the Backrooms #appletv #widowsbay #backrooms #matthewrhys
illuminations minions joyfully released in swarovski crystals, apparently. thank goodness we have all been informed.
The Vampire Lestat is a wild swing for the Interview with the Vampire series. The only thing I’m certain of SO FAR is that the way he pronounces ‘Reddit’ absolutely takes me out. #iwtv #TheVampireLestat
If you're as obsessed with Widow's Bay as I am, please join my meme and shitposting group, 'Shepposting': facebook.com/groups/widowsba… #widowsbay #appletv #tv
