You know what type of films I admire? The ones that tackle a certain dark aspect of humanity and explore it in a thought-provoking way. Granted these type of films are definitely not the most easy-going of experiences, but I’ve got to give them credit for not holding back from delving into these subjects. One … Continue reading

[Review] X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)
The X-MEN film franchise burst onto cinema screens 16 years ago in 2000, this film as well as 1998’s BLADE and 2002’s SPIDER-MAN helped breath life into big budget comic book films.

[Review] The Conjuring 2 (2016)
In 2013 THE CONJURING crept up into cinemas and took audiences on a frightening ride, and raked up some big bucks at the Box Office. It gained mostly positive reviews, and James Wan created a horror film that felt like the classics such as THE EXORCIST and not the gore and blood filled fests that … Continue reading
[Review] Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016)
The revamped live-action TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES was released two years ago from Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes and Nickelodeon. It was a Box Office hit, but not so much a hit with audiences and fans alike. The film suffered from a huge lack of understanding about the characters, their origin and just natural storytelling. The … Continue reading

What do you get when writers for DISNEY and POWER RANGERS R.P.M. decide to branch out and make something completely different?

[Review] Warcraft: The Beginning IMAX 3D (2016)
Duncan Jones’ WARCRAFT: THE BEGINNING is a film that has been in development hell for quite some time, honestly who thought we would actually see the day when the film got made and released?

[Review] The Horde (2016)
Two genres that basically shaped me as a person are action and horror, from my earliest days in watching films to now. They have always been a staple for me, and they seem to be the kinds of films people most associate with me. So when an action/horror film falls into my lap, my interest … Continue reading
Films That Saved My Life: Stand By Me (1986)
For as long as I can remember films have always been a part of my life, from the earliest of ages I was engaged in watching films and getting taken away on many adventures. Films have always meant more to me than just a form of entertainment, they have provided me with hours upon hours … Continue reading
[Audio Review] Alvin And The Chipmunks: The Road Chip (2015)
Who possibly would have thought the first Alvin And The Chipmunks film from a few years ago would have been so popular that it has now spawned three sequels? No really, who would have thought?

[31 Days Of Horror ’15] We Are What We Are (2013)
Horror remakes are usually a mixed bag, with sadly so many of them being a complete waste of time. Having not actually seen the original We Are What We Are (Somos lo que hay), there was no expectations going into this 2013 version. Hearing that this isn’t so much of a remake but more of … Continue reading
[31 Days Of Horror ’15] The Nightmare (2015)
Everybody sleeps and everybody dreams, but not everyone has sleep disorders or issues. Some suffer insomnia, sleep apnoea and others suffer from sleep paralysis.
