Halloween Movie Classics – Night Of The Demon -1957
โ
in HorrorDespite me having said on many occasions that I not a fan of horror films as a genre, there are, however, one or two exceptions to my self imposed rule. Seeing as how it is the Halloween season I thought Iโd have a little watch of one or two. The first one is nearly as…

RunPee Horror Hub
We all like a good scare. Wellโฆwe all like a good scare that doesnโt come when you open a letter from the bank or a utilities company. There is a lot of discussion of why we like to be made to feel uncomfortable and I am nowhere near qualified enough to weigh in on any…

Captain America: Brave New World – What You Need To Know
โ
Ah, yesโฆCaptain America. I donโt pretend to know all the mythology as laid down in the comic books due to never having read them! All I know is what Iโve seen on various screens large and small. Also, the plot is seriously under wraps; Iโm guessing that means no part for Tom Holland then! Also,…

Reacher: Season 2 – What You Need To Know
โ
I said elsewhere how much I enjoyed the Jack Reacher series whether it was on the page, the cinema screen, or on the TV. So it should come as no surprise to anyone that I am chuffed to bits that the second season has actually started filming.ย Who is Reacher? Jack Reacher was a major…

Usually that just means a few people add a โSadโ react emoji and thatโs about it. This time, though, there were comments along…

Indie Short Review – Yard Kings
โ
I do like a short! I think weโve all sat through a full length feature film and thought โwell, thatโs two hours Iโll never get back!โ At least with a short film you havenโt wasted too much time. I also remember a time when a trip to the cinema included a short or two before…

RunPee James Bond Hub
โ
Let’s face it, the man’s an icon. Since the mid-fifties, when the original novel was written, James Bond has been the epitome of cool, class, and creepiness, depending on when you want to look at him. Over the years he’s spawned copycats, clones, and parodies. If you want to kill an hour or two, just…

Deadpool 3 – What You Need To Know
โ
Deadpool is one of those areas of the greater Marvel Universe which is a blank to me. Iโve said elsewhere that I preferred Marvel comics over the DC ones. However, I stopped reading comics of any flavour back in the early seventies. As a result, Iโd never heard of Deadpool before the film came out.…

Casino Royale – 1967 vs 2006
โ
Two films forty years apart but based on the same source novel. Itโs not Sherlock Holmes, A Christmas Carol, or even La Planรจte Des Singes but this story has a few twists in the story of getting it from paper to celluloid. It is Casino Royale: the first Bond novel written and, subject to debate,…
