Blu-ray Review: Merantau [MA15]
Merantau was the first film in many years produced in Indonesia and it brought forth their martial arts Pencat Silat. That is a key component in this film, and I think after seeing this film many people will certainly want to know more (seek out Gareth Evan’s documentary Pencat Silat: The Martial Arts of Indonesia for more). The story here is about the ancient rite of passage known as ‘merantau’, which is from native Sumatra. Continue reading
In Memory of Tony Scott – The Legacy Of A Hollywood Top Gun by Dan McIntosh
With the recent and sudden news of Director Tony Scott’s passing, it isn’t until such tragic events occur that the real impact such people have on our lives is truly felt. While many film buffs or critics my not revere Tony’s work in such high standards as his brother Ridley or some other more revered directors, for me this man helped shape my life in more ways than one.

DVD Review: Rabies [MA15]
Dir: Aharon Keshales, Navot Papushado Starring: Lior Ashkenazi, Danny Geva, Ania Bukstein The Film: Rabies (Kalevet) was a film I had heard about some time ago, it was being billed as the first Israeli slasher film. This certainly got my attention, and I wondered whether I would get to see it and how it would … Continue reading

DVD Review: The Guest Room [MA15]
Dir: Henry Olek Starring: Ross McCall, Susan Priver, Jude Ciccolella The Film: The Guest Room (aka Serving Up Richard) is an odd gem of a film, and it is surprisingly engaging despite being labelled as a cannibal film. Now I have nothing against cannibal sub-genre films, this element worked well for Hannibal Lector for example, … Continue reading

DVD Review: Passion Play [M15]
Dir: Mitch Glazer Starring: Mickey Rourke, Megan Fox, Bill Murray, Rhys Ifans, Kelly Lynch The Film: Passion Play has a bit of a reputation behind it, it was panned by critics when it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival back in 2010 and it hasn’t quite recovered since. It has that reputation of being … Continue reading

[MIFF ’12] Maniac (2012)
My first thought after I was walking out of the screening was ‘scalping has never looked so artistic’. This ‘remake’ of Maniac certainly draws some of its inspiration from European arthouse horror, it really has that giallo vibe. It also draws inspiration from 70’s and 80’s exploitation, yet it aims to be more than just exploitation. Continue reading
