Indie Movie Review – Fugue
Fugue opens with a two part definition of what a fugue actually is… A period during which a person suffers from loss of memory, often begins a new life, and upon recovery, remembers nothing of the amnesic phase. A musical form consisting of a theme repeated a fifth above or a forth below the continuing first…

Indie Movie Review – Sinbad The Fifth Voyage (Ultimate Director’s Cut)
Sinbad: The Fifth Voyage Ultimate Director’s Cut, to give it its full title, hooked me in from the first words. Mind you, they were spoken by Sir Patrick Stewart and I would do anything asked of me by that voice! I’m old and straight but if he asked, I’d think about it. Fortunately I know…

Indie Movie Review – The Devil To Pay
The Devil To Pay took me by surprise! When I was told about the screener it came with an editor’s note saying… “A nice thriller for you. I love these ‘in the woods’ movies.”…so I had started to make up my mind what I was about to see and, if I’m honest, “psycho with an…

Indie Movie Review – Jurassic Thunder
Fancy something totally bizarre and ludicrous? Jurassic Thunder is your baby! So you have a secret base with weaponized dinosaurs… I’ll just let that sink in for a second.

Hobbitses – A Tolkien history – Behind the Lord of the Rings in epic fantasy films
Typical! Wait decades for a film with hobbits in, and six come along at the same time! At least, that’s how it felt. Like many teens of the time, I had my copy of the single volume paperback edition of The Lord Of The Rings, shortly after it was first published in 1968, having…

Indie Movie Review – Hawk & Rev: Vampire Slayers
I’ll be honest. As soon as this started running I thought, “here we go… another low budget, low talent, low quality bit of nonsense,” but I was pleasantly surprised! I’m sure that it is a low budget piece. The sets seem to be back alleys, back gardens, and public roads. The cast are all new…

New Movie Review – Mulan (Live action 2020)
The obvious first step with a look at a film like Mulan is to do a compare and contrast piece with the 1998 animated version. And, obviously, there will be a bit of that but, bottom line, it would be a bit like comparing and contrasting apples and tractor parts… Other than the name and…

Movie Review – The New Mutants
—
This was a nice welcome back to the theater movie. It was fun and pulled me in very quickly, especially since this isn’t usually my kind of film. The first thing that comes to mind about The New Mutants was the chemistry. When you have a group of five characters, it’s usually difficult to pull…
