WHOA.
No, but really.
WHOA. If you had told 12-year-old Matt that a movie he made would one day grace the pages of Fangoria, my brain would have melted right out of my ears. Infinite thanks to @_yulissagothacked for the love and kind words, and to @philnobilejr and @fangoria for letting our scrappy little DIY flick crash the magazine. DUH4EVR!

SOUTHERN ACCIDENTS will make its New York City premiere at the @coneyislandfilmfest on Saturday, May 2nd. 7pm // Program 7 // Coney Island Museum Who wants to catch some flicks, eat some chili cheese dogs, and smooch under the Cyclone?

LORDY! A week has passed and your boy is finally coming back down to EARF. Fantastic Fest in Brooklyn was PURE MAGIC. We came, we partied, we screened, we A-ed some Q’s, we learned to love again. Thanks again to @_yulissagothacked , @lisadreyer8 , @alamonyc , @fangoria , and everyone at @fantastic.fest for a weekend to we will never forget. Sad that our little tour has come to an end, but it’s time to get to work on the next one.

Pic 1. Last supper vibes with the @unclepeckerhead squad at @fantastic.fest plus a long awaited reunion with @_yulissamora !❤️ Pic 2. How handsome is the one and only peck? Pic 3. I love @estobrowno Pic 4. Pure Scum! @purescum Best people, best time!

Sad you missed the Uncle Peckerhead 5-Year Anniversary Roadshow? Well, fear not! This Sunday (3/29) at 7pm @alamonyc (Downtown Brooklyn), we’re closing out @fantastic.fest Fantastic Best Weekend with one final screening (for now), plus a Q&A with all your Peck favs. Come celebrate with us before we go into hibernation to develop our next project. Last weekend was magical, or “off the chizzaine” as the kids say. JOIN US. Tickets are limited, so smash that linktree in the bio and scoop them tf up.

Long Island City. SOLD TF OUT. Holy shit. A room full of angels and beer. @michaeljsutter @goodtimegreg @chloetarkovsky and @estobrowno joined the mayhem. @fivehundredbucks gave us an all-timer set. Thanks to @focalpointbeer and Tom & Mary @zerovisioncinema . What a way to end the tour. Best weekend ever. Best crew ever. Best crowds ever. Best friends and family ever. Maybe we should make another movie?

Good god, Philadelphia. What did we do to deserve you? SOLD THE MF OUT. Magical night. Old friends, new friends. Laughs, love, loud music. What more could a man-eating hillbilly want? @sad13 moderated a killer Q&A with @kiddynamatt @this.is.hell.im.in.hell @chetsiegel @wickymdoza and Peck himself, David Littleton. @fivehundredbucks absolutely RIPPED 🤯 Thanks to @winnier @bswinnerton @tonycoonfilms @siri_langone for making the event happen behind the scenes. Now on to NJ BBY! Who’s coming out?! @theshowroomap & @parlorgallery DOORS: 6pm MOVIE: 6:30

THIS FRIDAY, MARCH 20TH, UNCLE PECKERHEAD TAKES PHILLY. @PHILAMOCA Doors 7pm Movie 7:30pm #yophillymag If it wasn’t for Philly, I would have never met @this.is.hell.im.in.hell , my cosmic brother and creative partner, who I met at some Philly house party/show back in… 2012? Our first project together, the short Larry Gone Demon, was shot entirely in West Philadelphia. Philly was also where we shot parts of Uncle Peckerhead. House of DUH? Jeff and @siri_langone ’s newly purchased fixer-upper in Port Richmond. The final show at the end of the film? The Sound Hole in West Philly (RIP), where @thesoundhole (aka childhood friend Joey) lived at the time. I also just realized it’s another anniversary of sorts: the 10-year anniversary of my first visit to PhilaMOCA, back in early 2016, when Larry Gone Demon played the winter edition of Vivisections International Horror Shorts (shoutout to @squirrel_on_stilts ). I cannot wait to tear it up with y’all in the City of Bruvs & Love! Artwork by @johnfmalta

ONE WEEK AWAY, Y’ALL! Who’s coming out to the roadshow? To get ready for next weekend, we combed through old posts and pictures people sent us over the years. And we cried. And cried. And cried some more. Happy tears. We’re a sentimental lot. Putting these events together while working full-time jobs has been a little stressful, but looking back at all those photos and all that love knocked the anxiety right out of us. Now we’re just fucking STOKED. To everyone who watched the movie, rented the movie, stole the movie, told a friend or two, bought a shirt or record, sent us an email or DM, left us a review on @letterboxd (especially the nice ones), shouted us out on Reddit or anywhere else on the WWW, or slapped our sticker up at a bar bathroom... THANK YOU. We love you. We love that we got to make this movie, and the fact that it reached even one person outside our orbit is completely bonkers to us. We really hope to see all y’all next weekend. Friday 3/20 l @philamoca (Philadelphia, PA) with Q&A hosted by @sad13 Saturday 3/21 l @theshowroomap @parlorgallery (Asbury Park, NJ) Sunday 3/22 l @focalpointbeer (Long Island City, NY) in collaboration with @zerovisioncinema And if you live too far away, you’ll be there in spirit, partying with Peck and the rest of the freaks.

Last year I realized the fun, friendly version of me had gone missing. In her place was a stressed-out, pandemic-brained, work-from-home goblin who almost exclusively only talked to Matt and Peanut and had forgotten how to socialize with other living creatures. So I signed up for improv classes to see if I could find her. And peekaboo! Somewhere between pretending to be a naughty grandma and yelling nonsense on stage with a delightful group of fellow weirdos, there she was! If you’ve ever been curious about improv, or want a healthy fun hobby or way to meet new friends, go and do it! Nothing to lose, just lots of ridiculous group pics to gain 👻🤡 #onebigclap
