Paroxysm – A Short Horror Film

The following video is just a little something I was involved with recently. It’s a short amateur horror movie titled Paroxysm. It was filmed in a few hours on the spur of the moment and was a lot of fun. It stars myself and fellow blogger Rebecca and Mike, as well as the great Steven. It’s also […]

“Oblivion” Review

“How can man die better: than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods.” Oblivion is a 2013 sci-fi film starring Tom Cruise, Olga Kurylenko and Andrea Riseborough. I watched it in he cinema the past week and I LOVED it. I loved it a lot. So far it’s […]

Doctor Who – “Nightmare in Silver”

This week’s episode was frankly a bit of a mess. It had many good elements as well as some really bad ones. BUT, first and foremost, this episode was about the return of the Cyberman. And was it a successful return? Well, sort of. I’ve never cared for Neil Gaiman. I’ve never really been interested in anything he’s written […]

Doctor Who – “The Crimson Horror”

I don’t review Doctor Who but today I thought I’d make an exception. I’ve been seeing a bit of hate for the most recent episode (although reviews have been glowingly positive) but I really loved it. So let’s dive right in to the Crimson ‘orror.

City of God (Cidade de Deus) Review

I’ve really got into foreign films recently, watching some great movies like Oldboy, The Raid, Elite Squad and Elite Squad 2: Enemy Wihtin. City of God has been described as shocking and disturbing and believe me it did not disappoint on that front, but it was also a really compelling and often almost funny look at life in the slums of […]

Blackpool (TV Series) Review

It’s gold rush time in Blackpool, and guess who’s shitting golden nuggets? Tucked away in the BBC’s history there is this little show by the name of Blackpool. It’s an offbeat, sometimes hilarious, often dark and occasionally musical hidden gem of a TV show. The main character (but by no means good guy) is Ripley Holden, […]

The Walking Dead Season 3 Review

“In this life now, you kill or you die, or you die and you kill…” Well, it’s over. Season 3 ended. I tried to keep up to date on reviews, but sadly failed towards the end of the series. I blame this solely on my recent signing up to Steam (and spending shit-tons on the […]

Bioshock Infinite Review

“Bring us the girl and wipe away the debt.” WHAT?! HUH?! As you may be able to tell from my confused grunting, I’ve just finished Bioshock Infinite. And what a game it was, somehow becoming the smartest and cleverest yet most action packed and thrilling game I’ve ever played. I am a huge fan of […]

Argo Review

Yep. It was good. Actually it was great, brilliant even. I’d wanted to see it for a while and never gotten round to it. But after it did well at the BAFTAs and then the Oscars, I watched it as soon as possible. And it was as good as its awards suggest. First up, I’ll […]

Review of “Mama”

I have many reviews to catch up on so this will be a quick review of Mama. Here goes! The first good thing about the movie is the cast, the two kids do excellent jobs and avoid falling into the trap of being annoying. Victoria (Megan Charpentier) and Lilly (Isabelle Nélisse) are interesting characters to […]
