Puppeteers are performers too! The folks who bring your favorite adorable, or killer, puppets to life like this little guy are also repped by SAG and striking for better wages! ✊🏻 Just because you don’t see their faces doesn’t mean their performance isn’t also being captured on camera, and it is as equally vital. Hopefully we can all get back to slaying it on screens soon 🔪🖤 #sagstrike #chuckyseries #chuckys3

That time Danny Elfman himself threw a bucket of water on Liam Neeson 🪣. If you haven’t listened to the very first episode of Flesh & Blood & Bone covering @tonygardner’s time working on the 1990 film Darkman, you can now watch along on @kyraegardner’s YouTube!

Little me would be horrified I’m sharing this on the internet but I can’t resist now. The @realgeicocaveman has returned after a long hiatus and it brought me back to when my dad turned me into a caveboy for their TV show. I was around 9 here?? I was a little self conscious about playing a “boy,” yet I totally kept that outfit and wore it for awhile since it had bigger pockets 👖 #soeasyacavemancandoit
I look like my mom from The Blob (1988) in these photos, but instead of getting dissolved by a goopy monster I am signing my very own monster book!

Happy Birthday to Brad Dourif! 🎉 A little snippet here of a candid moment from Living With Chucky that’s in our bonus features. I was a huge fan of One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest, so not only getting to sit down with the man who brought Billy to life but also the voice of my childhood (thanks dad) was very exciting and nerve wracking! He gave such great advice as an actor and artist, so much so that I could have had an entire 30 minute tangent about actors in the film. Thank you for everything Brad! 🖤🔪 #chucky #livingwithchucky #braddourif
Finally got to see Barbie today, but this was who was really watching 💗 The best part was going to the bathroom afterwards and talking to an older woman about what the film meant to us from different generations. So happy this movie exists, for Greta’s success, what the film means to women (and all genders!), and for future female filmmakers 👑 (no I did not see Oppenheimer) #barbie
