Review: Heart of an Oak
The intricacies and emotion in this are truly astounding and it is hands down, one of the best nature documentaries I have ever seen. It’s just beautiful, and you’d think watching a film for 90 mins about a tree would be hard work, but it is as exciting as any Bond film.
Review: Lisa Frankenstein 4K UHD
I can only describe this as a sort of mixture of Beetlejuice and every Gothy type teeny series on Netflix – like Sabrina and Wednesday, but with a darker (rapey, murdery) edge.
Review: A Dry White Season
Directed by Euzan Palcy and co-written by Colin Welland, based upon André Brink’s novel, A Dry White Season was made in a time when Apartheid was still in place in South Africa.
Review: Crimson Peak Limited Edition 4K UHD
Looks absolutely sumptuous in this 4K UHD release, the crimson of the title bursting from the screen as vivid as I’ve ever seen it.
Review: The Coffee Table
There comes a point in the film where I asked Mr 60MWto turn it off, as I didn’t want to see anymore…but I was glued to the screen. What followed was an hour of absolute anguish, horror and trepidation.
Review: Butcher Baker, Nightmare Maker
This psycho-drama/slasher/borderline comedy is one hell of a fun watch and has never looked better than on this Severin Films release, which is available for the first time ever in UHD, scanned in 4K from the original camera negative with 6 hours of new and archival Special Features.
Review: Mansion of the Doomed
Mansion of the Doomed is one of those “how the hell has this passed me by until now?” kind of movies, with a crazy story and fantastic cast that had me enthralled until the very end.
Review: The Promised Land
The Promised Land (or ‘Bastarden’) couples together director by Nikolaj Arcel (A Royal Affair) and Mads Mikkelsen in another superior Danish Historical epic.
Review: Source Code 4K UHD
It stars Jake Gyllenhaal as U.S. Army Captain Colter Stevens, who is sent into an eight-minute virtual re-creation of a real-life train explosion, tasked with determining the identity of the terrorist who bombed it.
Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Wrath of the Mutants
I enjoy side-scrolling beat-‘em ups, and I don’t expect deep gameplay, but there are lots of things wrong with Wrath of the Mutants that make it hard to enjoy.
