Share/BookmarkHere’s an interesting piece of industry news (via Deadline) which immediately begs the question “why hasn’t this been initiated sooner?” Lionsgate (the studio that Saw built) are planning on creating three low-budget features (all under $2 mil) in a new scheme which, if deemed successful, could pave the way for up to 10 films a [...]
Share/BookmarkI must confess, before hearing this news, I wasn’t familiar with the name Melissa Rosenberg. After a quick skim of her résumé, I realised both why I wasn’t and that I probably should have been. Her first major writing big-screen break came with her part on the team to write the Step Up screenplay, and [...]
Share/BookmarkIn London tonight for the UK Premiere of his latest film, Sucker Punch, we had some time with director Zack Snyder on the red carpet and with the hyperbole and hearsay regarding the future for the post-Nolan Batman franchise and a potential Justice League Movie coming in 2013 we wanted to know what place, if [...]

Share/BookmarkWhen I was but an impressionable, somewhat culturally wayward teen, I used to have a crush on Claire from Steps. And while that may not seem the most obvious way to open a review about video games, it’s important for the telling lesson I’ve since learnt. Just because something looked amazing and brought you great [...]

Adapted for the [...]
Share/BookmarkIf you hadn’t have guessed from the name of our blog, we like to think of ourselves as somewhat of the 80s movie connoisseur.

Share/BookmarkOkay, sorry, this is getting complicated and more than a little silly. Hobo With A Shotgun isn’t out yet, but there is a making-of documentary, for which a teaser trailer has just been released. Fine. Whatever. Seriously though, HWAS looks like being properly gorey and a good old fashioned slice of exploitation fun. From the snippets [...]
Share/BookmarkI must have watched the 1985 Michael J. Fox version of Teen Wolf dozens of times. It was one of those movies I must have asked my mum to video off the telly to watch with my friend Steven when I was about 10 and would just continue to watch until the video tape wore [...]
