Triangle(2009)

"Melissa George, no stranger to horror having been in The Amityville Horror and 30 Days Of Night gives her best performance yet"

Things have not looked good for the British horror scene for quite a while, what with such catastrophic misjudgements such as Lesbian Vampire Killers, the disappointing Tormented and the frankly awful Doghouse earlier this year.  There is light at the end of the tunnel though with Triangle, ...

Johnny Mad Dog(2009)

"A brutal, harsh dose of reality – utterly compelling, completely unmissable"

Central heating, clean water, comfy beds – there is so much that we have in our lives that we take for granted.  We sit hear and grumble that we don’t have enough money, that our jobs are mundane but in reality, we are utterly blessed, and sometimes it takes a film like John...

Ricky Gervais and Jennifer Garner have great chemistry onscreen but I don't believe he's leading man material, he's b...

Antibodies director Christian Alvart takes suspense into space with this tale of two astronauts who realize that they aren't alone as they drift into the darkest corners of our galaxy. Awakening in ...

The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud(2010)

"The film does contain substance, as well as a sweaty, shirtless hunk, although possibly more of the latter"

Without wanting to betray my own gender, and our ability to watch a film of substance without needing a sweaty, shirtless hunk to carry us through to the credits, I feel that I may be slightly biased in my affections for the life and death of Charlie at. Cloud. However The film does indeed contai...
