From Slamdance: If you missed any of my coverage from #Slamdance 2026, you can find it here.
I was bummed to have it be interrupted when I got sick, but, sometimes, that's the way it goes.
From Slamdance: I had the chance to screen the new Jacob Hatley and Tom Vickers doc CLOVERS.
It follows three different Asheboro, N.C., people as their lives intersect socially and personally, their choices carrying with them a powerful sadness brought upon by a self-made inevitability. #Slamdance
From Slamdance: Shot with only an outline so as to encourage improvisation and being in the moment, Lakatos and Sandler are mesmerizing as two betrayed women whose entire identities are shattered and whose concepts of justice veer into the absurd in DANNY IS MY BOYFRIEND. #Slamdance
Sometimes friends are the last thing you need, as shown in Jessica Barr's ambitious directorial debut - The Plan, fresh from its #Slamdance World Premiere.

Final #Slamdance Review:

When we talk about abuse of power, we have to be willing to look at the systems that protect it.
Thank you, Will for a thoughtful conversation.

🍄 Hungry Hollow is the indie horror trip you didn't know you needed. Sarah Ruyle’s short just crushed it at Slamdance 2026 with its "mouthwateringly cute" yet terrifying forest feast. A massive win for #IndieAnimation and experimental storytelling. #HungryHollow #SupportIndie #Slamdance
Beneath the gross out humor & gags of DYSPEPSIA BY SALTY BISCUITS lies a surprisingly fun study of paranoia & friendship

THE BULLDOGS is beautiful, immersive, and deeply human. A documentary that, like life, doesn’t provide closure.

Sly snark and a relatable, awkward celebration of the weirdness of normalcy, THE HUMAN, WILL is instantly likeable. And damn funny.

A very difficult movie, Max DeFalco's street grotty street level drama TEN WILL asks when is someone’s sentence truly over?

Keeping with the punk themes of this year's #Slamdance, we head to Chile for Matapanki. A truly DIY aesthetic superhero movie, with a truly singular style.

Me at #Slamdance! I hadn’t been to a film festival since 2015! I saw the features #TheOldManAndTheParrot, #DannyIsMyBoyfriend, and #ThreeColors Pan African. Passes were only $50.
STILL STANDING captures the haunting limbo after the #Eaton fire with unsettling imagery & a simmering emotional pull. No faces, just fragments & fallout. Brief, urgent & a clear call for accountability.

From Slamdace 2026:
Gabriel de Varona’s feature directorial debut THE OLD MAN AND THE PARROT is both outrageous & exceptionally grounded as it offers a gentle reminder that our time is short and sweet for certain, so enjoy it while you can. #TheOldManandtheParrot #Slamdance

#Slamdance, you program some really wild shit.
Couldn’t even look at the screen the last ten minutes, just sat there staring at my lap and listening. But this is to the film’s credit.

The ad libbed #indie comedy DANNY IS MY BOYFRIEND has jokes that both burst with fire & merely smolder. Yet the film’s freewheeling charm sticks the landing.

Courtney Sposato’s animated short STARING CONTEST is deceptively simple but packs a political punch.

MURPHY'S RANCH has 2 working-class adopted brothers going against everyone’s favorite villain. This #shortfilm has a hip #80s PI vibe that deserves to be seen.

Slamdance 2026 delivered a gem. Santa Zeta, starring Nekane Otxoa, is a gripping, socially urgent thriller confronting real-world monsters. 4.5/5 from HMU.
