I have watched the Ben Wheatley-directed film BULK, and let me tell you, it is an absolute fucking blast. Do you enjoy endlessly inventive, often psychedelic science fiction? Well then. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5F08...

Lovely pen work.
The front cover of a book called Cult Britannia. The title is in large white letters against a Union Jack flag background, where the central red stripes are made from strips of film. The subtitle reads Great British Genre Movies from the 1950s to the 1990s.
I've got a new book out! Cult Britannia is a 400-page beast covering hundreds of weird and wonderful world of British horror and science fiction movies from the quaint post-war 1950s through to the end of the post-modern digital 1990s.

George Romero. When Richard Matheson - author of 'I Am Legend' - saw 'Night of the Living Dead', he chided his friend Romero. 'It's a bit familiar, George'. 'Don't worry, Dick,' Romero later told Matheson. 'I didn't make any money from it.โ #georgeromero #illustration

Peter Cook. 'There's terrific merit in having no sense of humour, no sense of irony, practically no sense of anything at all. If you're born with these so-called defects you have a very good chance of getting to the top.'. #petercook. #illustration

When I was a schoolboy, I was a runner-up in a Sun newspaper design a Xmas card competition. My parents didn't tell anyone as they didn't want people to know they took The Sun. Here's my second attempt at Xmas card design. #threads #illustration

The Queen of Crime - Agatha Christie. When I was very young, my father's Christie paperbacks filled two shelves. I started to read them, favouring the Miss Marples. For me, they weren't comfort reading, but disquieting stories full of gruesome murders and ruthless killers. #agathachristie
It's great! If only...
