Teaser trailer: Comedy horror mockumentary When The Screaming Starts

19th August 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

A wannabe serial killer, a warped filmmaker, and a murderous cult on a blood-soaked rampage. When The Screaming Starts is a darkly comic tale of how far we will go in order to achieve our ambitions. *** My review is now live — plus read my interview with director and co-writer, Conor Boru *** I’ve seen the… Teaser trailer: Comedy horror mockumentary When The Screaming Starts Read More

Queenpins Kristen Bell and Kirby Howell-Baptiste are in the money (off) in new trailer

11th July 2021 by Sarah

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….

Werewolves Within: order of deaths!

5th July 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

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

29th June 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

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

The trailer for teen comedy Dinner in America is, bizarrely, the kind of thing you can watch with your parents

28th May 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

“Do you think I’m weird?” “Oh yeah, no, you’re fucking weird.” “Is weird cool?” “In your case, no.” As the kids say, I feel so seen, if as a teenager back in 1986. This film is Heathers meets Napoleon Dynamite AND a cult film in the making apparently, and while that set my expectations high… The trailer for teen comedy Dinner in America is, bizarrely, the kind of thing you can watch with your parents Read More

WHOOOOOOOOOdunnit comedy horror Werewolves Within gets a trailer

1st May 2021 by Sarah

*** Read my 4/5 Werewolves Within review now *** “All I’m asking is that you be a good neighbour. Like Mr Rogers.”“With guns, though.” “With guns, yes.” This trailer had me howling and I can’t wait until 19 July, when it’s out on DVD and digital in the UK. Here’s the synopsis: The film takes… WHOOOOOOOOOdunnit comedy horror Werewolves Within gets a trailer Read More

Mosquito bites and water sprites in Barb And Star Go To Vista Del Mar

3rd March 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Entirely spoilery about the whole plot, though nothing was as surprising to me as discovering that culottes are apparently pronounced COO-lots. Who knew? (My four-star review is here.) How could I dislike a comedy about middle-aged women that begins with Barry Gibb and Barbra Streisand singing Guilty? Little Yoyo is singing along to the song… Mosquito bites and water sprites in Barb And Star Go To Vista Del Mar Read More

The wonder of Willy’s Wonderland

14th February 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Very spoilery, if you don’t already know that children’s parties tend to end in mayhem. (My review of the film is here.) “He’s not trapped in here with them – they’re trapped in here with him!” If you after the kind of lockdown palate cleanser that burns off the whole inside of your mouth then… The wonder of Willy’s Wonderland Read More

The Blithe Spirit remake and the ghosts of movies past

15th January 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Extremely spoilery about both Blithe Spirits and you’ll also have to simply accept that ghosts are real. (My review of the new Blithe Spirit film is here.) To misquote Princess Di, “there were three people in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded”. None of the three in Blithe Spirit (1945) or Blithe Spirit… The Blithe Spirit remake and the ghosts of movies past Read More

Locked Down but not out: new trailer

6th January 2021 by Sarah

*** My review and article are now live – also the UK release is now 11 March, for home rental *** “Oi, how many arses have you got?” asks Paxton of a loo roll stockpiler coming out of shop in London during Lockdown 1.0. Despite its UK lockdown hook, Locked Down is actually a heist… Locked Down but not out: new trailer Read More

Wild Mountain Thyme trailer – mint or a load of old borage?

11th November 2020 by Sarah Leave a Comment

*** My review is now live *** Sorrel not sorrel. You’d have to be a tarragon of virtue to hold off on those puns. Okay, I’ll stop the chive talking and let you know what I think of the new trailer for Wild Mountain Thyme, which has garnered horror and astonishment in equal measure since… Wild Mountain Thyme trailer – mint or a load of old borage?

Say Your Prayers: Blessed are the filmmakers…

3rd October 2020 by Sarah

Note: this is spoilery, though I can’t help you with the biggest question of all – is there a God? And if so where does She buy her bras? Say Your Prayers (my review is here) is small-scale and very self-contained, though it’s remarkably effective. Like a doorstep proselytiser you thought you’d got rid if,… Say Your Prayers: Blessed are the filmmakers… Read More
