The Walking Dead
Robert Kirkman’s graphic novel The Walking Dead has been adapted for TV by Frank Darabont…watch the fan-shot trailer unveiled recently at Comic Con…
Food Inc. (2008)
As is plainly stated in the film, the food industry is no longer growing or producing food, it is creating it – whether it be through hormones in living creatures or through genetically modified seeds. But, of course, this is merely the tip of the iceberg in this valuable and ultimately heartbreaking piece of work – one that could be the single most important documentary of recent years…
The Thief Catcher
The Thief Catcher, a lost film from 1914 featuring a young Charlie Chaplin has been found at an antiques fair in Michigan…Read about it here…
Hot Tub Time Machine (2010)
Who knew a movie with such a ridiculous title could actually be a bubbling Jacuzzi of crazy fun, but that’s exactly what Hot Tub Time Machine is. Somewhat aimed at GenX-ers, Hot Tub is one screwball situation after another. It’s absurd and raucous, but unlike the majority of crap today masquerading as comedy behind cheap gross-out and sex gags, Hot Tub manages to be tasteful and witty even while employing that same pantheon of jokes…
The Human Centipede (2010)
Far too perverse and disturbing to enjoy, but much too audacious to fully ignore, The Human Centipede is destined to become a “midnight-movie” cult classic in the vein of Blood Sucking Freaks and The Beyond. Let me make it quite clear that this film should not be entered into lightly – there is not much in the way of graphic violence and gore, but it is rife with psychological horror so extreme and unsettling that you will probably never forget this traumatic experience…
Super 8
Not much is known about Super 8, the upcoming blockbuster from JJ Abrams and Steven Spielberg, but you can watch the teaser trailer here…
The Wolfman (2010)
Personally, hopes were high for the remake of The Wolfman, a story whose basic elements have been recounted in various guises over the years in both film and literature, and one that will never need to seek an audience. And so, it is with deep regret that I report the dull and lifeless bore that is Joe Johnston’s version. Impeccably produced, The Wolfman nevertheless plods along awkwardly like a werewolf in Doc Martin’s…
The Crazies (2010)
The residents of a small Iowa town have had their water supply tainted by a military plane carrying a biological agent that has crashed into the local river. The toxin is designed to disable a population, and that’s exactly what it does to the poor folks of Ogden Marsh who begin to turn on each other with cold, murderous rage. The town is rapidly quarantined and it becomes the mission of a group of survivors to hike cross-country and get the hell out of toxic Dodge…

Crazy Heart (2009)
The answer to the question as to whether Jeff Bridges deserved his Best Actor award at this year’s Oscars is a resounding you bet your ass! At times channelling The Dude from the Coen Brothers’ The Big Lebowski, Bridges is totally immersed as the aging, alcoholic country star Bad Blake, reduced to playing tiny gigs in backwater bowling alleys. It’s a role that was seemingly penned expressly for the actor…
