‘Meet Oliver Stone’ – Interrogation Videos, Featurettes & More from Oliver Stone’s Savages

Savages poster

Oliver Stone’s Savages promises to be the crime-thriller of the season, opening in North America this weekend – it won’t be topping the box office, with that honour going to The Amazing Spider-Man, but it definitely looks like a fantastic alternative to the superhero blockbuster. My advice: If you can, see both. Starring Blake Lively, [...]




Killer Joe Review

Killer Joe

Teaming up with writer Tracy Letts of Bug again, The Exorcist and The French Connection director William Friedkin decides to go down the depressingly claustrophobic route of his 2006 film, trapping us with his characters in a seemingly hopeless spiral of existence in Killer Joe. However, there is some depraved glee that this filmmaker takes [...]

Killer Joe poster

Matthew McConaughey stars as the eponymous Killer Joe in William Friedkin’s crime-thriller, heralded by critics as an unmissable dark and twisted film this year, which sounds perfect to me. It recently landed the notorious NC-17 rating across the Atlantic – a rating potentially damaging to its US box office performance. The film debuted in Venice [...]

The Darkest Hour Review

Darkest Hour Film

Remember the times critics have said that they like it when films let the audience find the horror in their own imagination? To keep that latex monstrosity of a monster in the shadows lest we see it’s horribly unhorrifying latex moulded face? To keep that particularly traumatic scene off-screen so that we can think ourselves [...]
