What’s a movie you saw as a child that has left a lasting impression on you? I’ll never forget the day that little me watched Coraline for the first time. It’s a film that has shaped me into the person I am today and something I still rewatch multiple times a year. Saw ! Not only did it revolutionise horror as a genre but it further showcased the quality of films being produced by Australians. It’s fun, gory, and dramatic with an unsettling soundtrack and unique aesthetic that’s instantly recognisable. What’s one of your all-time favourite TV series, and why? A show I come back to constantly is The Haunting of Hill House . The short series is a devastatingly beautiful ghost story about grief and family that is scary without having to rely on jump scares. What have you been watching lately that you’d recommend? Anne Rice’s Interview with The Vampire ! This show is incredible, showcasing complex themes of love and loneliness. I encourage anyone who is a fan of vampires and all things gothic and gory to give it a go. What’s one of your all-time favourite films, and why?
