An Odd Turn 2024

★★ Watched 15 Dec 2024

Lackadaisical, drab and without a millisecond of human emotion attached to anything that happens...... of course, give it an award.
The Creep Tapes 2024

Watched 14 Dec 2024

Ep 4 Brad - 3.0
Ep 5 Brandt - 4.0
Ep 6 Mom (and Albert) - 4.0

After the fourth instalment it felt like redundancy was setting in, however those final two episodes are brilliantly off-kilter with their own deliciously twisted points of difference.

Lonely Planet 2024

★★ Watched 11 Oct 2024

What a perfectly amiable piece of fluff.
The plot mechanics are so clunky and obvious in the way the pieces are shifted/manipulated into place that it's almost embarrassing to watch it all unfold.
Destroy All Neighbors 2024

★★★★½ Watched 12 Jan 2024

Adherence to an 80's aesthetic in genre films (in terms of influence, music, style etc.) has almost become a cliche but Destroy All Neighbours is a ridiculously entertaining, glowing recommendation for the trend to continue if in the right hands.
Hilarious, gory and brilliantly directed and performed, this is as much fun as you can possibly have with a horror comedy. Jonah Ray's physical performance is Campbell-esque whilst Alex Winter in duel roles is equally memorable.
Kudos to director Forbes…
