Review: Tremors 2: Aftershocks Limited Edition 4K UHD
4K UHD: Tremors 2: Aftershocks (1996)Having reviewed and enjoyed Arrow’s 4K UHD release of Tremors, I was delighted when the sequel was announced as another 4K UHD release.Set 6 years after the original movie (the same period between the movies themselves), Earl Bassett (Fred Ward) has long since used up the fame that was bestowed […]
Review: Dreamworks All-Star Kart Racing
Mario Kart…there, I’ve said it and got it out of the way early.Inevitably any kart racing game that gets released will be compared and contrasted to one of the all-time greats.So, with that out of the way, let’s move onto the game.It’s hard to go wrong with a kart racing game and Dreamworks All-Star Kart […]
Review: Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2
I didn’t play the first Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl so can’t really comment on any improvements in gameplay, characters, etc, and despite not being a huge fan of “fighting” games, I have enjoyed many a session on the Super Smash Bros series of games with my son…of which this game shares a lot of common ground.First […]
Review: Porno
Based on the Irvine Welsh book of the same name, Porno has already had one adaptation – on the big screen in Trainspotting 2 back in 2017. Like the movie, this is only a loose adaptation of the book and loose is really the best word for it as not a lot happens in this show. After […]
Review: Micro Scalextric – Batman vs The Riddler
In November last year Scalextric kindly sent me their “Back to the Future vs Knight Rider” set to review.One year later and they’ve once again brought a big smile to my face and sent me their Micro Scalextric Batman vs The Riddler set to review.As with the previous set, it was far better to make […]
Review: Ghostrunner 2
I’ll be perfectly honest and say that I’d never even heard of the original Ghostrunner game, which is not surprising really when my fave video game genres are racing and RPGs, and those are what I mostly keep an eye open for.So what was it about Ghostrunner 2 that peaked my interest when we were […]
Review: The Clangers
Fabulous Films have knocked it out of the park (and onto the moon) releasing yet another favourite television show from when I was a child. This time unleashing all 26 episodes from Season 1 and 2 of The Clangers, now fully restored and presented from high-definition masters.Originally broadcast between 1969 and 1972, The Clangers was […]
Review: The Ginger Snaps Trilogy
I’d only ever watched the original Ginger Snaps movie back on its release over 20 years ago, so it was great to hear that the ever reliable Second Sight Films were releasing a limited edition Blu-ray box set of the full trilogy.Katharine Isabelle (Ginger) and Emily Perkins (Brigette) are sisters, with movies 1&2 set in […]
Review: Hellraiser Quartet of Torment Limited Edition 4K UHD
(Tina) There are 2 films that I’ve always dreaded having to write about; Blade Runner and Hellraiser. The reason I’m adverse to discussing these particular films is because they have such a deep emotional meaning to me that I am incapable of being objective about either of them, as I regard them both equally as films elevated above […]
Review: Delicatessen 4K UHD
4K UHD, Blu-ray, DVD & Digital: Delicatessen (1991)I remember Delicatessen looking gorgeous when I first watched it on VHS over 30 years ago (was it really that long!?), but this new 4K restoration (and making its UHD debut) from Studiocanal looks amazing and showcases the work of co-directors Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet, along with […]
