The Purge

The Purge

Upon seeing the trailer for this film I must admit it had me hooked, it was such an interesting premise. In fact it had a few of us discussing what we would do if everything was legal for 12 hours. Sadly, I don’t feel the film lived up to the trailer. Maybe this is due to my love of watching films without knowing too much about them. In my head I had the film following a few people throughout an American city trying to survive The Purge. Unfortunately what I got was your basic home invasion film

I have to give a bit of a preface to this review. This film deeply resonated with me but it may not do so for you.

Star Trek: Into Darkness

Star Trek: Into Darkness

When 2009’s Star Trek came out, I was in awe - I’ve never been a huge follower of Star Trek, but that movie converted me heart and soul.

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead!

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead!

I’m not sure where to start with this film, it’s the epitome of the word madcap. It delves into the worlds love of fast food and zombies with an unashamedly unpolitically correct style as to make it a must watch. Part musical, comedy, want to be horror and even a dash of soft-core porn this film tries and succeeds to be an eclectic mash up of all these genres.

Evil Dead Remake Review

Evil Dead Remake Review

Straight to the point: It made me laugh, was genuinely creepy and often quite uncomfortable viewing, just like the original.

Spartacus: War of The Damned Review

Straight to the point; The 4th and final season; this ultra-violent yet engrossing show goes out with a bang. And it’s one hell of a ride…

Review: A Good Day To Die Hard

Review: A Good Day To Die Hard

Straight to the Point: Some decent action and can be fun, but doesn’t come close to the quality of any of the other Die Hard movies, making this the worst…

Doctor Who Quick Read a Quick Let Down

Doctor Who Quick Read a Quick Let Down

Straight to the point: The Doctor Who “quick reads,” produced by the BBC, I thought was going to be the best value for money I have ever come across.

The Raid: Movie Review

The Raid: Movie Review

I didn’t know much about this film until a friend of mine expressed to everybody on his social media feed that a relatively unknown film had come to England’s cinemas from Taiwan called ‘Serbuan maut’ (The Raid: Redemption). He claimed it to be one of the greatest action films he had seen. Because I’m a fan of foreign films, and I don’t mind subtitles, I wished to see it (as I have previously seen some great foreign action films such as ‘Ong Bak’ (Tony Jaa) and ‘Oldboy’ (Choi Min-Sik)). The film
