review: Chronicle (2012)

There was a plethora of new film releases this week, from a raft of genres, but on paper, this is the one I was most interested in. Chronicle chronicles the story of three high school boys who find themselves with the somewhat unusual ability to move objects with their minds… or, you know, telekenisis. So [...]

movie news: Watch Terry Gilliam’s new short film, The Wholly Family, here!

As you can imagine, I get a lot of e-mails about movies. I read them, but earlier today I got one that really caught my eye, the subject line was “Terry Gilliam needs your help!”. Does he? Well who am I to say no?! It turns out that he needs our help to distribute his [...]

review: Man on a Ledge (2012)

Man on a Ledge is one of those small films that creep up on you… You have no idea they exist and then BAM! They’re all over the place and it turns out they even have people you’ve heard of in them. As a result, I went into Man on a Ledge only knowing that [...]

feature: The Woman in Black – YouTube Ghost Story competition

A while ago, I did a clips and trailers post for The Woman in Black. It looks like a good old fashioned ghost story and I’m very much looking forward to it, I honestly thought that teaser trailer was one of the scariest things I’ve seen in a long time. I’m a big horror fan [...]

review: Underworld: Awakening (2012)

Kate Beckinsale is back in her PVC catsuit, corset and leather jacket for the fourth installment of the Underworld series, Underworld: Awakening.

clips and trailers: Moonrise Kingdom (2012)

If you’ve ever read my top 10 films of the decade post, you’ll know that I’m a huge Wes Anderson fan. Ok, ok, I’ll admit. The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou wasn’t his best work… but I thoroughly enjoyed The Darjeeling Limited and Fantastic Mr. Fox (review) so all is soon forgiven. Well, Thursday was [...]

You can see all the film clips over at my previous post, clips and trailers: The Muppets – The Clips. There were so many I decided to split up the clips and trailers for The Muppets… These are no ordinary trailers though. The Muppets have done parody trailers as well as normal ones. It’s a [...]
