Dead End Drive-In – Brian Trenchard-Smith (Arrow)

Australia has always been one of my favourite places to check out films from. The country has some fantastic scenery to chew over and some sumptuous movies have really taken it to heart and made the most of things. Classic… Continue Reading →

Horror and comedy strange bedfellows when you think about it. After all the two genres are at extreme ends of the spectrum, well away from each other and they should not really work well when mixed. Of course they do… Continue Reading →

The Victim – Michael Biehn (Anchor Bay)

Michael Biehn will probably be best remembered for his bare assed time tumble to duel with the relentless killing machine the Terminator a film which put both him and the latter day governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger very much on… Continue Reading →

Modified – Paul Cotrulia (Event Films)
