Never has a damp holiday trudging up mountains in the Lake District with my whining children trailing five paces behind sounded so welcome. Unlike the luxury holiday destination in the Infinity Pool, there’s no “violence, hedonism and untold horror” there, unless you include that one night a year when crazed sheep hit the Cumbrian pubs… INFINITY POOL TRAILER: Water nightmare! And it all started off so swimmingly Read More
Pooh and Piglet go the whole hog in Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey trailer
Pooh may be a bear of little brain but so are his and Piglet’s victims, once they’ve been bashed over the head with an axe. Yes Pooh and Piglet have gone to the dark side — now that A.A. Milne’s initial book about Winnie the Pooh is out of US copyright — in this upcoming… Pooh and Piglet go the whole hog in Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey trailer Read More
Hell’s belle! That GATLOPP: Hell Of A Game ending
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.

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?

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

Reed’s Point trailer: if you go down to the woods today…
*** My review and article on the ending are now live *** I’m claiming that monster as British. It’s the teeth. Billed as a psychological horror AND a creature feature, this new Reed’s Point trailer indicates the film will be mining some classic horror tropes, including but not limited to characters going back to where… Reed’s Point trailer: if you go down to the woods today… Read More
ARGHHH! The trailer for Scream is here
That’s Scream 5, though it is simply called Scream, and is a sequel rather than a reboot. I can’t remember a whole lot about the first four films, including how many of them I’ve actually seen, but even I can recognise the intro to this trailer.

“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
