4K UHD Blu-ray: The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)I went to see The Wolf of Wall Street at the cinema on its release back in 2013 and absolutely loved it, yet strangely had never revisited it in the past 9 years until the 4K UHD review copy from Arrow Films dropped through the letterbox here […]

Blu-ray: Ghostwatch (1992)I remember watching Ghostwatch live when it was broadcast back in 1992, and while I soon caught on that all wasn’t as it was made out to be, it still drew me in and gave the odd shiver down the spine.30 years later and “the cat now being out of the bag” about […]

Cinema & Digital: My Neighbour Adolf (2022)My Neighbour Adolf is a bit of an odd film, with just the title alone anyone would think it was a maybe…a comedy? Or some sort of Fried Barry type experience. With financing from Israel, Poland and Colombia, and all those languages spoken in it, it’s a film that […]

Blu-ray & DVD: The Deep House (2021)Tina (Camille Rowe) and Ben (James Jagger) are a couple of vloggers whose latest adventure takes them into France where they end up scuba diving in a lake to investigate a submerged house.Expecting to find nothing more than maybe the odd forgotten bit of jewellery, their fears rise when they open […]

Blu-ray, DVD & Digital: This is GWAR (2021)This is GWAR is quite simply my favourite documentary that I’ve watched so far this year…and I’ve watched a lot of documentaries.Whether you are a fan of the music of GWAR or not, put those thoughts to one side and enjoy a near 40 year rollercoaster ride of […]

Blu-ray: A Boy and His Dog (1975)Based on the novella of the same name, A Boy and His Dog is very much a film of its time, directed by actor L.Q. Jones, it follows the adventures of Vic (a very young Don Johnson), a 15 yr old lad who with his dog Blood travel the post-apocalyptic wasteland of […]

4k UHD Blu-ray: I Spit on Your Grave (1978)After reviewing the “I Spit on Your Grave Complete Collection” Blu-ray set by Kaleidoscope Entertainment back in 2020, I was delighted when Kaleidoscope announced they were releasing a 4K UHD Blu-ray of the original 1978 movie, accompanied by some fantastic extras.The movie itself needs no explanation, an […]

4K UHD Blu-ray: Videodrome (1983)One of those classic films that films fans love; unusual, brutal, a one of a kind. All from the mind of genius film maker David Cronenberg. Now I don’t like to give spoilers away in my reviews, just in case the viewer hasn’t seen the film and doesn’t want it ‘ruined’ […]

Cinema & Digital: Vesper (2022)Directed by Kristina Buožytė and Bruno Samper, Vesper was shot in Vilnius, Lithuania with cinematography by Feliksas Abrukauskas who gives it a real ‘otherworldly’ feel (reminding me a little of The 1988 New Zealand film The Navigator).It follows Vesper (the excellent Raffiella Chapman); a young teenager who is adept at bio-mechanics, who […]
