Last week, I returned from the Boston Underground Film Festival, a twenty-five year-old genre festival held at The Brattle in Cambridge, MA. So as is my tradition, I wrote a round-up of my favorite shorts and features!

Happy first #LetterboxdFriday of spring!

It's been a slow start to #buff2025 so far. But that's okay, three days chalk full of features and shorts remain!

Fréwaka is easily the best so far, but is just missing a little something throughout. And it doesn't quite stick the landing, so I couldn't justify an extra half-star. But it's still quite good, and suitably creepy.

#Buff2025

Excited for the Boston Underground Film Festival to start! I'm seated for The Surfer, which is the only film in the whole weekend I've heard of. That's part of why I loved this last year: the joy of discovery!

Let's get ready to watch a truly stupid amount of #movies !
