Eric Langberg

• Eric is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved film critic.
• He takes his fandom seriously; for example, he has made a pilgrimage multiple times to James Dean's Indiana hometown to write about their yearly James Dean festival.
• One October, Eric watched and reviewed 31 horror films in 31 days, but the 25 made-for-TV Christmas movies he watched and reviewed in 25 days that December were way scarier.

Experience

Eric joined Static Media in 2021, writing for Nicki Swift, /Film, The List, and Looper. He's been grateful to indulge in writing about various pop culture obsessions, from Florence Pugh, "Vanderpump Rules," and Channing Tatum to Lady Gaga and the filmography of Paul Newman. In addition to writing online about film and television since high school, Eric has also been on the other side of the industry, with experience in film publicity and casting. After launching his Medium publication "Everything's Interesting" in 2015, he moved from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles in 2019 to write about entertainment full-time. Eric has since contributed essays and reviews to such outlets as IndieWire, Bright Wall/Dark Room, The Spool, The Queer Review, Gayly Dreadful, Certified Forgotten, and more. He's also a member of GALECA, The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics.

Education

Eric has bachelor's degrees in fiction writing and film studies from the University of Pittsburgh.
