Unit Eleven (2020)
A love letter to Sheffield , written by a mad scientist and delivered by a beserker
This film has everything you could ever want , robots , machine guns, toxic waste! I loved every second of this film. Its so refreshing to see a young british filmmakers hard work pay off and for Sheffield to have its own kick ass gun blastin action movie. This movie is both a homage to 80s action movies like eliminators and cobra and at the same time it captures the essence of Sheffield in a unique and beautiful way. Highly recommend this is a 5 bagger.
The BFG (2016)
An excellent movie - ignore the haters
This film really did the best job at capturing the essence of the story, great acting, very very good directing. This was a lovely film much better than i expected. I think a lot of the negative reviews it has got come from rather jaded older movie goers who are looking at it all wrong. Its meant to be a sweet tale of magic and friendship, it doesn't need to be darker and grittier, its for kids, its not made for adults to compare it to memories they had of the book. Its a lovely lovely film and this comes from a 36 year old horror fan who has a hangover, this film will stand the test of time mark my words. Remember the original willy wonka got bad reviews when it came out.
Mystery Monsters (1997)
A masterpiece
charles band excites and delights with horrific monsters and creepy David icke scaring reptilians. A great title i will be exposing my future children to, I am a huge full moon fan though ... the style of the monsters the in jokes the slight tongue in cheek nature its all there subtle and magnificent!!!!
Watch if you love puppet master or ghoulies or hideous! or head of the family or demonic toys ...but you are looking after some kids and you want to give hem nightmares for years to come ahaahahhaha
genius a rip roaring success
10 out of 10 BRAVO CHARLES BAND
Outlander (2008)
The most original film in years. Alien vs vikings how could it have worked?
All i can say is give it 11 out of 10! Its got so much gore and alien homeworlds and broadswords, and yet im sure if you took your wife/girlfriend or religious father to see it they would nod and smile at the end and say 'i didn't think id enjoy that''but it was quite good actually'
I haven't felt so excited watching a film in years! especially not an action/fantasy film. The alien was SWEET and truly magnificent, the cgi was top notch. The director needs a big pat on the back.
I haven't felt this way since i was a kid, it emulated all my favourite childhood films ALIEN, HIGHLANDER, PREDATOR....with a touch of WILLOW
So SO good! im gonna see it again!
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE
