Very spoilery. (If you’re looking for my review, it’s here. My game name-check is here.) You want to know the ending to GATLOPP? P. Just kidding. I’ve spent too long playing Hangman with my 10 year old, I think. So do they all get sent to hell to play that damn (and literally damning) game… Hell’s belle!

GATLOPP trailer: is it game over?
*** My review is here, or read my recap of the ending *** GATLOPP? Is that an initialism? An anagram (um, tag plop?)? A wordsearch? The answer to how to escape this literally hellish drinking game? Horror and board games are an appropriate partnership, considering the ouija board began — ahem — life as a… GATLOPP trailer: is it game over? Read More
Cop Secret clip & trailer: don’t Messi with Icelandic super cop Bussi
The fast-paced comedy stars Auðunn Blöndal as your usual maverick, hard-drinking, no-nonsense, brutal cop in a tight white vest… but he has a secret: he has a crush on hunky fellow policeman Hörđur (Egill Einarsson). I’m a big fan of workplace crushes, but in this case it distracts him from his job tracking down a… Cop Secret clip & trailer: don’t Messi with Icelandic super cop Bussi Read More
Senior Year: dreams can come true
Age may not have withered Steph, but after 20 comatose years with a high calorie feeding tube it has given her massive boobs. Luckily the cheerleading outfit still fits. Very spoilery, obviously. Check out my thoughts on that Dream Theme, or scroll down for a plot re-cap including the ending (If you’re after my review,… Senior Year: dreams can come true Read More
Fangs, fiends and family in Let The Wrong One In
Would you bloody believe it! Dublin is awash with the undead. Very spoilery on family, the ending and who dies when (if you’re after my review, it’s here) Family The vampire story is an allegory for, and runs parallel to, the exclusion Deco and Shelia feel. Both Deco and Sheila feel neglected and abandoned by… Fangs, fiends and family in Let The Wrong One In Read More
The Nan Movie: more photos of her gran day out
Sorry not sorry. Catherine Tate’s iconic character Nan hits the big screen as she goes on a wild road trip from London to Ireland with her grandson Jamie (Mathew Horne) to make amends with her estranged sister Nell (Katherine Parkinson). Militant vegan arsonists, raucous rugby teams, all night raves and crazed cops on motorbikes all… The Nan Movie: more photos of her gran day out Read More
Nan gets an origins story and it’s probably darker than Batman’s: check out the trailer
Hopefully choc-full of profanity (prof-nan-ity?), our favourite / least favourite little old lady is back, and this time she’s heading for the big screen. Lock up your grandads! And your drugs! This is an origin story that mixes Nan’s present with her past where we finally find out what’s made her the cantankerous old b*****d… Nan gets an origins story and it’s probably darker than Batman’s: check out the trailer Read More

“Imagine Louis Theroux meets the Manson Family…” Conor Boru With so much blood it’s even gushier than a BAFTA ceremony full of luvvies, serial killer mockumentary When The Screaming Starts has a particularly British sensibility to it, what with its David Brent-like main character, Aidan, who wants to become a mass murderer, the campervan-driving documentary… Writer-director Conor Boru on his murder mockumentary When The Screaming Starts Read More

A wannabe serial killer, a warped filmmaker, and a murderous cult on a blood-soaked rampage.

Queenpins Kristen Bell and Kirby Howell-Baptiste are in the money (off) in new trailer
Who doesn’t love a bargain? Queenpins is giving us Kristen Bell AND Kirby Howell-Baptiste — it looks great fun, and if we’re saying BOGOF afterwards it’ll be for all the best reasons. I’m fully expecting the movie to give me the same dopamine hit I get when my Tesco Clubcard vouchers plop through my letterbox…. Queenpins Kristen Bell and Kirby Howell-Baptiste are in the money (off) in new trailer Read More
Werewolves Within: order of deaths!
Who is the Beaverfield werewolf? Is miserable Emerson Flint a misanthrope lycanthrope? What about postperson Cecily, the mythical seventh child? Or Trisha the crazy maple syrup lady (though that would mean she ate her own dog)? Could it actually be ranger Finn, the affable incomer? Only two people and one dog are actually killed by… Werewolves Within: order of deaths! Read More
The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard: it’s all about family
Warning: spoilers ahoy (when I could work out what was going on, anyway) My 2/5 review is here First of all, it turns out Darius had not asked Sonia to get Michael Bryce to help spring him from his Mafia captors. What he’d actually said was “Anyone but Michael Bryce”. Morgan Freeman plays Michael’s stepdad,… The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard: it’s all about family Read More
