Blu-ray: Flight of the Navigator (1986) A real classic from 1986, Flight of the Navigator is still a firm favourite with all kids from the 80s, me included. Directed by Randal Kleiser and written by Mark H. Baker, Michael Burton and Matt MacManus, it tells the story of 12 year old David Freeman (Joey Cramer) […]
For me, Fallout’s world has always intrigued me, and for years I’ve tried to play Fallout games, always giving up at certain stages. Dying is a big part of Fallout, well for me it is as I never got the hang of V.A.T.S (Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System) for shooting the enemies. I loved the post-apocalyptic […]

“You wanted the best, you got the best. The hottest band in the world…KISS” I’ve heard the above introduction 31 times at KISS concerts across the UK since becoming a fan (some may say “obsessed with”) back in 1979. I’ve also had the pleasure of hearing that introduction MANY times over the years at Dressed […]

Beginning with 3 furies (witches with the aliens teeth), he gives us a real sense […]

Blu-ray: Marlene Dietrich & Josef Von Sternberg at Paramount, 1930-1935 Gosh how I love Indicator box sets, they give us beautifully restored films with the most amazing extras. So being able to experience this particular collection featuring the six Hollywood films made between 1930 and 1935 by Josef von Sternberg and starring his ‘creation’ Marlene […]
Blu-ray: In Bruges (2008) Imagine the joy I felt on seeing Colin Farrell as Ray in ‘In Bruges‘, excitedly run over to a film-in-film set with a delighted (Irish accented) cry of ‘Midgets! They’re filming fuckin MIDGETS’! Some films just have it, you know it’s going to be a belter and as the voiceover starts […]
