Looking for info on Horrorthon 2012? Have a look at my picks for Horrorthon 2012 here. Yes yes, it’s that time of year again. Time for the annual IFI Horrorthon Film Festival! As big a horror fan I am, last year was actually the first time I went along to it. Pretty poor showing from […]
moreI’ve never been a poet. I waffle about films here on this site but I’ve never actually thought about the structure of prose, never mind spared a thought for the rhythm of writing. Like most people I know, I had to read poetry in school but I don’t think I’ve ever read poetry for pleasure. […]
moreLast updated: 16 Apr 2012 In a way it’s a little early to be talking about The Avengers… there probably won’t be loads of clips and trailer news for it for a while. But no matter. Today sees the release of the first trailer so here you go! In case you don’t already know, The […]
moreWell you gotta cut loose, FOOTLOOSE! That’s actually the sum total of what I know about Footloose, I’ve never seen the original and up until about 2 months ago I didn’t even know it was set in a town that banned dancing. I’d heard reference to the idea before in shows like The Simpsons or […]
moreStrange, strange, strange. I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting to like Red State. I liked the trailer but I’m not particularly a fan of Kevin Smith; I can still smell Cop Out from here… then again, I did really like Zack and Miri Make a Porno and I thought Chasing Amy was kind of […]
moreNo time for news on Cinerama last week, too many films coming out! I only had a chance to cover one of these items on air this week as well. No matter, I’m gonna give you the news I didn’t get to say too. If you want to hear the rest of the panel’s take […]
moreI haven’t given you much of build up on this one but I saw it last night and I decided I really wanted to promote it. Without further ado, Hanna. Hanna is the second collaboration between Joe Wright and Saoirse Ronan, the first one being the excellent war-time drama Atonement. Great film, seek it out […]
moreGoodness! Priest is nearly upon us and I’ve only done one post on it… and that was months ago! Anyway yes, as I said in that post – alternate future? post-apocalyptic dystopia? I’m there. It’s my favourite genre of fiction. I don’t care if there’s vampires, cannibals, zombies or just a simple breakdown of civilisation. […]
moreYou may or may not remember Honey as one of the many many dance films that appeared in the cinemas after films like Save The Last Dance revived the genre back in the early 2000’s. More likely though, is that you may remember it as one of the first films Jessica Alba starred in after […]
moreYou remember when I said the trailer for Sucker Punch had everything but the kitchen sink in it? Yeah. Turns out the kitchen sink was sense. This was not as phenomenal a mess as The Spirit but it did have a few extra touches of outlandishness that only Zack Snyder is brave enough to throw […]
