    Devil's Playground

    I watched this film a few days ago. It was awful. That about sums it up. I'm always on the lookout for a decent zombie film but unfortunately, during my search, I have to wade through the numerous crap that's already out there just to find one single rare gem. Why is it so damn difficult to...

    wanting: a good scary film

    I'm ashamed to admit it, but Blair Witch. I think fear is a personal thing and this movie really played on mine. It's a film i own on DVD, but haven't ever actually watched it again lol I remember Demons 2 freaking me out when I was younger, but i've not seen that in a good 10 years, so can't...

    DVD's from China

    A mate has had some DVD's brought back from China, he's got a James Bond 007 box set and some Matrix DVD's, they're all in very professional cases and the DVD's are silver and look very authentic. The region code is 0, when I'm sure that the actual dvd region for china is 6, the DVD's don't look...

    I don't mind dada. Once you get used to it, it can be quite a thrill. Some dada literature? hmmmm Gertrude Stein. Louis Zukofsky. William Carlos Williams dabbled a bit in this form There is not much in the way of writers because the movement burnt out pretty quicky just like other modernist...

    Why is 'Lost in Translation' a 15? (Spoilers)

    I know what you mean, to an extent. Austin Powers 1 was very tame compared to the second one, yet the first one was rated 15, and the second only a 12. I think it will be re-rated in the future as a 12 also. RoboCop 3 was rated a 15, yet I honestly think it should be re-classified as PG...

    What is so good about dirty dancing??

    The dancing (obviously). But aside from Patrick Swizzlehips and Jen Grey, mention should also be made of Gynthia Rhodes, she is breathtaking in her dance scenes. The songs. The soundtrack is blistering. The love story. When you think about it and Eleanor Bernstein says in her narration, to...

    Casting James Bond

    I'm just happy that Casino Royale was back to good old fashioned bond, stunts by real people, all be it slightly unrealistic some of it but atleast not anything like die another day. That was, for me anyway, the worst bond film and only because of all the CGI. Glad to see bond back on track a...

    Jolie's Cleopatra casting starts race row

    FUN FACT Phillipa of Hainult (who from her description was obviously a black woman) ruled England as Edward's Queen Consort really early on in the Medieval ages.

    Little Nicky - Funniest film I've seen in ages and I'm not a big Sandler fan.

    It's not really a chick flick though is it?

    Batman Begins

    I thought that it was let down badly by the script. Everything else was fine but you would think with the amount of reference material they could have put soemthing together with a bit more sparkle. I still think that Michael Keating played the best Batman though.

    It was more to do with imagery. I looked at my favorite lyricists and I noticed there wasn't very much descriptiveness in their writing, not like you see around here. Instead there was a lot of inner dialogue, thoughts, funny or strange observations. The point being, Beatles lyrics would be...

    Why the obsession with trailers?

    I'm a little confused by the question. Why wouldn't film makers use trailers? At the end of the day even if a film is pants it is there to make money so they will naturally advertise and build hype around it.

    Sequels that should of happened and never did

    Can't tell you how much I disagree with this. Whilst IWTV is my favourite film of all time, there really should not be a sequel. There has already sort of been one - Queen of the Damned - but that didn't do very well at all, and is generally ridiculed, though I haven't got anything majorly bad...
