We give this reviewer two thumbs WAY down!
Movie fanatics are probably pretty familiar with the site Birth.Movies.Death. and the site’s now former editor-in-chief, Devin Faraci — but you may not know about his DISGUSTING past!

Recently, Faraci took to Twitter, as many have, to Donald Trump‘s recent comments about sexually harassing and abusing women.
But he was in for a rude reminder when one online user called out the critic himself for sexually assaulting her in the past!
Devin had originally tweeted his opinions about Donald’s statements saying:
The most telling thing about the Trump tape? He wasn’t talking with his best friends. He was boasting to a TV host.

Well, one online user who goes by the handle @spacecrone responded saying:
Disgusting. And obviously all too real, as Mr. Faraci quickly responded:
@spacecrone I do not remember this. I can only believe you and beg forgiveness for having been so vile.
— devin faraci (@devincf) October 9, 2016
He doesn’t remember assaulting a woman? Seriously??
Obviously, he must have done so though, as he’s so quick to cop to it.

The accuser then went on to detail what went down when she was assaulted and shed some light on rape culture:
@devincf I’ve been forced to think about you a lot since these trump tapes came out.

sitting here trying to remember if a man had ever grabbed me by the vagina against my will and, well, yes, a popular Twitter feminist!
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 9, 2016
Literally stuck his hands down my pants at a bar while I told him to stop, then told our friends he had ‘fingerbanged me’
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 9, 2016
I’ve avoided making that public for over a decade but I guess my rage at trump has uncasked the Gorgon in me.

It’s not just your Trumps or your Republicans, it’s your friendly neighborhood film critics and twitter feminists.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 9, 2016
I don’t really care if he apologizes, mostly tweeting in solidarity with every person who has ever been grabbed by the pussy.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 9, 2016
Or otherwise violated and then had to see that person posture as a feminist on social media or anywhere.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 9, 2016
People who have had similar things happen and are really triggered by the news cycle right now: i feel you & you are not alone.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 9, 2016
Damn.

Since the tweets went viral, Faraci has “stepped down” as Birth.Movies.Death.’s editor-in-chief as a note on the site reads:
“I’m here to assure you that the site and magazine will continue, with a team of smart, passionate writers dedicated to bringing you the best in pop culture news and conversation today. Devin built this site into something we’re proud to continue and grow in his absence.”
Faraci also commented specifically on the issue, saying:
“This weekend allegations were made about my past behavior. Because I take these types of claims seriously I feel my only honorable course of action is to step down from my position as editor-in-chief of Birth.Movies.Death. I will use the coming weeks and months to work on becoming a better person who is, I hope, worthy of the trust and loyalty of my friends and readers.”
In response to the story being picked up by several outlets and Twitter users, @spacecrone tweeted:
I’ve had some people dm me asking me a) why Twitter and b) why wait so long to say something about Devin

As a woman you get very familiar with survival mode and letting things go so the anger doesn’t exhaust your resources
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
I’d given him the chance to apologize, he didn’t, so I just let it go so i could live.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
But the past few days, being confronted with The trump tapes and people defending them, I just got tired of this world.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
And why Twitter? I saw him tweeting about trump and the irony that he’d actually DONE that very thing to me, the dissonance…
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
I think in this political climate it is no longer time to work on letting things go, being quiet, figuring out how to move on.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
I didn’t do it to be vengeful. His suffering gives me no pleasure. I did it because I was tired of being quiet.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
don’t believe me? totally up to you. i’m not your mom. you’re free to think whatever you want. always have been.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
what did i want to come out of this? i wanted him to know i haven’t forgotten, and i want people to be aware how common stuff like this is.
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 10, 2016
Tell ’em how it is grrrl!
The woman also explained:
I’m taking down “the tweet,” not because i’m embarrassed or want to pretend it didn’t happen,
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 11, 2016
but because it’s become a focal point for some really vile stuff that i don’t feel is in any way in touch with what actually happened
— INVISIGOTH (@spacecrone) October 11, 2016
While this is obviously a very terrible incident to bring to light, we’re glad more victims are coming forward and being less afraid to speak out against sexual assault and harassment!
