The Day I Saw Your Heart is an odd little film, one of the comedy/drama and slightly quirky variety. These types of film can go either way, this one falls somewhere in the middle, not quite being able to reach greater heights but not a total failure either. The story is about a family, two … Continue reading

My Movie Song Of The Week #81
“To Sir With Love” by Lulu (from TO SIR WITH LOVE) – Bede Jermyn
DVD Review: Escapee [M15]
Dir: Campion Murphy Starring: Dominic Purcell, Faith Ford, Christine Evangelista, Scott Elrod The Film: Escapee is a film with some interesting ideas, but it is very predictable and full of typical clichés. I really wanted to like this film, but it really fell into ‘typical slasher’ territory and it did not offer anything new or … Continue reading
[AFFFF ’12] Poupoupidou (Nobody Else But You)
Every so often a film comes along and is absolutely surprising and not at all what was expected. Nobody Else But You or Poupoupidou as I prefer is that film for me, I had my expectations on what it was about and how it may unfold but it was not at all what I thought … Continue reading
[AFFFF ’12] Les Contes de La Nuit (Tales Of The Night)
Tales Of The Night is a wonderfully unique visual experience; its animation is stunning and quite stylised. I was impressed simply by the look of this film, it is wonderfully crafted from the get go.

“Let The River Run” by Carly Simon (from WORKING GIRL) – Bede Jermyn
DVD Review: DeadHeads [MA15]
Dir: The Pierce Brothers Starring: Michael McKiddy, Ross Kidder, Markus Taylor The Film: I love a good horror/comedy, the blend of genres is never an easy task and sometimes one needs to sit through some bad before a good one comes along. I am very happy to report that DeadHeads is one of the good … Continue reading
[AFFFF ’12] J’aime Regarder Les Filles (18 Years Old And Rising)
18 Years Old And Rising is another example of why I absolutely love French cinema; more specifically in the way it portrays young people. This is a coming of age story about a young man, and what it does right is give us a real character. He isn’t a character who is wise beyond his … Continue reading
[Review] The Lorax (2012) by Logan Fowler
When it comes to literary adaptations for film, the books we hold near and dear to us will come under heavy scrutiny if their transfers to film don’t work as best as we will hope. This is a philosophy that I recently faced when The Lorax recently debuted at local multiplexes. The book it is … Continue reading

Dir: Kelly Smith Starring: Sophie Linfield, Sam Hazeldine, Gordon Alexander The Film: From the get go we know we’re in for something gruesome, as the opening credit sequence tells us with Don’t Let Him In.
