Body horror Let Her Out, directed by Cody Calahan, follows Helen , a bike courier who suffers a traumatic accident. Whilst she is reassured her recovery will be simple and fast, she begins to experience black-out episodes, hallucinations and nightmares. When...

A downbeat, depressing opus, Sean Brosnan’s My Father Die takes no prisoners. That’s not to say it isn’t any good – at times, it really hits the right notes, but the film is such a gruelling, tortuous gut-punch of a movie that it’s hard to...

Escaping a dark past, Evie (Morjana Alaoui) takes a job as a live-in carer for an ex-rockstar and tetraplegic, Jon (Mel Raido - Legend, 2015). Having suffered weeks of verbal and mental abuse from her intolerant patient, Evie’s frustrations begin to trigger...

Rough, hard-nosed and thoroughly ‘British’, Hell Drivers makes a welcome return to shelves thanks to a superb Blu-Ray restoration. A classic thriller, starring a veritable who’s who of the UK’s acting talent of the time, Hell Drivers delivered the...

Divorced workaholic Seok-woo (Gong Yoo) hasn’t been the best of fathers lately, choosing the office over his daughter Su-an’s (Kim Su-an) recital and buying her the same game console for her birthday that he bought her the year before. So when he offers...

The zombie apocalypse has come and gone and humanity lost, the majority of the population reduced to mindless, ravenous monsters, “hungries”, by a fungal infection, passed by body fluids, that attacks their brains much like the parasite that afflicts the...

Set in Florida in 2005, David Packouz (Miles Teller) is a down-and-out massage therapist who becomes a multi-millionaire when he teams up with a high-school friend, Efraim Diveroli (Jonah Hill), supplying weapons to the U.S. government. Directed by Todd...

With Remembrance Sunday only a few short weeks away, this seems like the perfect time to review two of Network’s most recent releases – one a landmark of British film, the other one of British television’s true jewels in the crown - ‘Carve Her Name...

An eye-poppingly attractive actress on the cusp of superstardom, a fur bikini, some iconic pre-release marketing images – oh, and some stop-motion dinosaurs – One Million Years BC seemed to have a lot going for it back in 1966. And so it proved for...

Father Andrew Kiernan (Gabriel Byrne) is a Vatican investigator. He is currently in Brazil, examining a statue of the Virgin Mary that has wept blood ever since the death of the local priest. But the priest’s rosary has been stolen, and sold to an unwitting...

A reasonably enjoyable watch, but covering no new ground if truth be told, Viral is one of those films that has pretty much vanished from memory as soon as the credits roll. A mix of infection chiller and zombie carnage, this is very much teen horror...

I hated Wolf Creek. Released in 2005 (and drawing on the real-life crimes of Outback serial killer Ivan Milat as well as the Peter Falconio case), I thought the movie was a grubby wallow in the reptile brain of Australian masculinity and badly wanted a...

Taking every parent’s worst nightmare and ramping it up to near-hysterical levels, Never Let Go is a ballsy, kinetic abduction thriller that proves a thrilling watch. Showcasing an eye-catching turn from lead Angela Dixon, Howard J Ford’s effort is a...

Much of horror cinema classically has played on our fears of the unknown, of the supernatural and the other…something fantastical that we cannot fully comprehend with anything other than fear. One only needs to look at the lasting legacy of creatures such...

Drawing explicitly on the classics of the video era such as Friday the 13th, Rabid, and The Evil Dead, Lake Nowhere is an exuberant blast from the past that immerses itself in horror history to distil a wonderfully attuned work of genre adoration, making the...

Hoping to find a more welcoming home on its DVD release than its blink-and-you’ve-missed-it cinema outing earlier this year, Jane Got A Gun proves a satisfying, if somewhat underwhelming watch. A western that is part action flick, part brutal revenger...

How far would you go to make your life perfect? To start again, remake yourself, reboot your life? To be the best version of you that you can be? Would you walk out on your old life, abandon everyone and everything you’ve ever known, turn your back on the...

Back from a tour of duty in Afghanistan with intermittent hearing loss and a major case of PTSD, French Special Forces soldier Vincent (Matthias Schoenaerts) takes a temporary security job, with some other moonlighting serviceman, guarding the Cote d’Azur...

My original introduction to Jackie Chan, way back in the day, was of him swinging off the back of a bus via an umbrella in the original Police Story. So when the latest instalment of his Captain Zhong adventures finally made it to these shores (it was...

Following a tragic car crash that leaves an infant dead, expectant mother Eveleigh (Isla Fisher) and her husband David (Anson Mount) swap their hectic big city lifestyles for the simpler pleasures of the country. Seeking a fresh start, the couple buys a...

In the wake of the ballyhoo surrounding Hardcore Henry, the vogue of the first person perspective seems in a prime position to flood the cinematic market…for better or for worse. Not without its problems, it’s unquestionable that, as a technique, it holds...
