Snot & Zombies

Had a a stinking cold for the last week so I’m in a generally grumpy mood…
Anyway, here’s the best short zombie film you’ve probably never seen:
I Love Sarah Jane
A different kind of Zombie Film. A short film selection of the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Jimbo is 13. All he can think about is one girl, [...]

Free Streaming Movie – I Am Legend (Well Sort Of)

OK so I’ve seen the latest Will Smith blockbuster and whilst it was an entertaining enough film it really didn’t bear much resemblance to the book it takes it’s title from.
Over at the internet archive you can find a free copy of “The Last Man On Earth” to stream or download and watch. This 1964 [...]

Free Documentary – Steal This Film II

I’d half expected this documentary to be one long pro-piracy rant trying to justify piracy, going on some of the comments I’d read about it.
It was then a pleasant surprise to find it is actually an intelligent, well produced documentary examining some of the reasons why piracy, file sharing and just plain information sharing exist [...]

I Am Legend (2007) Film Review

I can’t say I had high hopes for the latest film version of ‘I Am Legend’. It is after all one of my favourite books and Hollywood has a habit of taking great horror and science fiction books and turning them into run of the mill action films.

New Batman ‘The Dark Knight’ Trailer

Oh yeah Heath Ledger as the Joker looks like casting genius.

Watch Free B-Movies Online

I found bmovies.com the other day whilst looking for something trashy to watch and I love it.
OK I have something of a b-movie/trashy SciFi addiction but who wouldn’t want to watch films titled Attack of the Giant Leeches or Atom Age Vampire?
Here you’ll find hundreds of movies that have been lost in the wasteland of [...]

Caligari: An Exquisite Corpse (2007)

An interesting Open Source Movie I found recently when hunting around the Internet Archive.
This has been created using the footage of the famous silent movie The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari, whilst providing entirely new soundtracks.
Eleven composers collaborated in Exquisite Corpse fashion to produce two brand new soundtracks for the German Expressionist Classic The Cabinet Of [...]

1408: In Depth Review

Its just bloody Jumanji!

If Movies Have Taught Me Anything Its That….

80’s drug gangs all appear to be bikers who lived in neon underground lairs listening to bad techno surrounded by skateboarding kids playing arcade machines.
One twin is always evil.
One man with a handgun will be able to hit and kill more people than 200 men carrying machine guns.
If you find yourself in a group [...]

Last Night I Was Mostly….

…watching Transformers at the cinema.
Honestly I’ve read some reviews of this that bemoan the lack of plot and decent human characters but they all seem to be missing the point….look they are bloody great big robots that turn into things, fighting!
The plot (what little there is of it) serves simply to link the huge robot [...]
