Karate Kid Remake

Here’s the first photo for a remake which as yet, I haven’t found anyone who wants…. that of The Karate Kid. Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan are staring in the remake of the 1984 movie of the same name (although this version does seem to be changing what it’s called all the time). This first [...]

The Descent: Part 2 Review

Descent_Quad_Ref137

In 2005 Neil Marshall’s imagine-if-Alien-were-set-in-a-cave feature The Descent scared the living daylights out of cinemagoers worldwide.  Lacking the bawdy humour of his werewolf masterpiece Dog Soldiers, it was nevertheless an honest to goodness horror film that pulled no punches and left no survivors.  Unless you watched the American cut. The folk who decided to make [...]

The Girlfriend Experience Review

GFE Domestic Scene

Actress Sasha Grey states that her name was dually inspired by The Kinsey Scale of sexuality and Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray.  It is Dorian Gray I recall as I sit in a tiny screening room with the crisp, Vogue editorial, beauty of The Girlfriend Experience unfurling on the screen before me.  Utter [...]

GFE Poster

I am Sasha Grey, there is no other!
