My Bloody Valentine 3D DVD We have previously reviewed this title here whenit was out at the cinema, but the important question for this Scream Like slasher film is how does the 3D aspect work on DVD.
Answer is the effects are good but points are definitly lost as the old fashion 3D glasses with [...]

I always dreaded this film from the moment I first heard that Matt Damon was being considered as Kirk. But then something happened to make me think that this film was a good idea. That something was that I finally saw the movie.
Star Trek is an institution (asls known as the ‘franchise that will not [...]

Planet Of The Dead DVD Cover

Wow – and I mean wow. Its good to see David Tennent back as the Doctor – even knowing that his time is nearly up and that we only get to see him a handfull of times this year.

Red Dwarf – Back to Earth
I was so excited to hear that Red Dwarf was back on our screens, I knew as it was going to be on DAVE that the budget would not be half of the BBC TV episodes, but still I had high hopes.

Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle
The sixth and final volume of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle‘s inaugural season is surely a must have for pre-existing fans of the show. The question is however, is there enough here to bring in entirely new legions of followers. This critic says no.
Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle follows the adventures of Princess Sakura as she and [...]

Repo! The Genetic Opera – A must if you want to see Paris Hilton?s face fall off and Sarah Brightman claw her eyes out.
The majority of film fans, fanatics or otherwise, are probably blissfully unaware that REPO: The Genetic Opera has finally made its way to Region 2 DVD this week. And to those movie-lovers [...]

Lost Season 5
Note – review may contain spoilers
LOST has always been a programme that?s been bold with its narrative structure. It seems odd to think of now, but watching season one for the first time in 2004, the show?s flashback format seemed radically innovative. But LOST is nothing if not innovative, and five years down [...]

Watchmen Movie Poster
Whilst it can be said of pretty much any work of literature, WATCHMEN is a book that is defined by those that have read it and those that haven?t. To clarify, those that have read Alan Moore and Dave Gibbon?s 1985 magnum opus (myself included) are typically fiercely in love with the piece, [...]

So I saw a couple of months ago that the BBC were putting a flat share comedy with a werewolf, vampire and a ghost, well my first thoughts were that it would be some piece of cr*p comedy like BBC Three’s CLONE or at best THE WRONG DOOR. Images [...]
