Last year someone took my Priscilla poster and used it as the official one in Letterboxd without asking or tagging me. There it found a great reception and created a trend amongst users. It’s cool that my The Substance poster is now getting love too with my name attached to it 😌

So it’s that bad, huh?

For years, many Mexicans, myself included, have pushed back against the shallow, stereotypical, and inaccurate representations of our cultural identity in media, denouncing portrayals that reduce us to tequila, mariachis, piñatas, and sombreros. Today, our very own capital city chooses to embrace and celebrate that same caricature of Mexico in the heart of our historic downtown through FIFA’s cardboard depiction of our culture. Shame.

Ok diva

This inspired me to make my tribute poster this way

This is as if The Drama had a beautiful twist and ending

Backrooms without context

I’ve been in love with him since I watched Obsession

Being disappointed by Backrooms got me thinking about films that more successfully tap into analog and liminal existential horror, at least for me. Films that better capture the dread of being trapped in nothingness, the uncanniness of identical, sterile artificial spaces hiding uncertain dangers, or fragmented narratives that genuinely feel like nightmares: Vivarium, Skinamarink, Inland Empire, and Cube.

Backrooms proves that its analog horror belongs on YouTube, in short form. Once stretched into the sterile, pristine, high-definition renders of a feature film, paired with surface-level psychology (and, worse, clumsily and hollowly overexplained mythology), it loses all potency. You can have two great actors like the always compelling Reinsve and the powerhouse that is Chiwetel Ejiofor, wandering through labyrinthine, disorienting spaces, and still leave us cold. No dread, no substance, no story. Just atmosphere and setting. Many will project their own ruminations onto the maze and extract yet another “profound” horror metaphor about trauma, abuse, or identity. But ultimately, it all feels cosmetic rather than psychological. And even then, it's underwhelming.

The neurodivergent urge to stay up two hours past when everyone fell asleep just to exist without anyone’s needs attached to you.
