freelance film & pop culture critic

As a film and pop culture critic, I work across multiple media including writing, podcasting and events. My main focus is genre cinema, particularly horror, but I get involved with anything from Y.A. books to ‘90s TV shows to true crime podcasts to kids films.

I write reviews, essays and articles for various outlets, diving deep into specific movies or taking a broader look at themes and trends, while always keeping a close eye on what’s new.

I produce podcasts and regularly appear as a guest on other people's shows, indulging in lively chats ranging from classic cinema to latest movie releases to ‘90s teen horror books and TV shows.

Loving a live event, I also programme film screenings in cinemas around the UK, host interviews and Q&As, and appear on discussion panels.

I have worked with, amongst others: Empire, Arrow Video, Second Sight, Shudder, GamesRadar+, National Galleries Scotland, Picturehouse Cinemas, Genesis Cinema, Regent Street Cinema, The Ultimate Picture Palace, Hyde Park Picture House, Tyneside Cinema, Chapter, Cultplex, Mockingbird Cinema, Flatpack Festival, Dundead Film Festival, Grimmfest, and The Evolution of Horror and The Final Girls podcasts.
