Halloween Kills Director: David Gordon Green Universal Sony Pictures P/I I finally caught up with Halloween Kills – now streaming and on DVD, I had missed its brief cinema run and was disappointed, having rewatched most of the franchise in anticipation.

Possessor: DVD

Possessor Director: Brandon Cronenberg Elevation Pictures / Signature Entertainment Possessor belongs to that dark and wonderful strain of film – the science fiction psychological horror. And director/writer Brandon Cronenberg is royalty within that genre. He’s been bubbling away under his own steam across the last decade. Anything he has grabbed from his father he has […]

Love Thy Neighbour – The Complete Series: DVD

Love Thy Neighbour: The Complete Series Creators: Vince Powell / Harry Driver ITV / Madman The convenient excuse is to suggest that something happened when times were different, but time is an abstract concept – the times themselves were not different, we have been stretching time and having it constrict on us since long before […]

Willy’s Wonderland: DVD

Willy’s Wonderland (Blu-Ray) Director: Kevin Lewis Madman / Screen Media Films Here’s how it works now: Someone tells you about a film where a quiet drifter-type is conned into a gig being a janitor at a now condemned theme park-styled restaurant. Chuck E. Cheese with broken-down animatronics. A clown show with no show today, tomorrow […]

WWE Elimination Chamber 2021: DVD

Elimination Chamber 2021 WWE Madman February’s Elimination Chamber event is now on DVD and if you’re a fan of these sorts of events – the big Elimination Chamber contests are of course epic by design – then you won’t be disappointed. Both Chamber bouts are great – the first one particularly. Great spots, excellent execution, […]

Chick Fight: DVD

Chick Fight Director: Paul Leyden Madman You can almost imagine the pitch meeting. Guys, of course, talking about Fight Club and someone says, “what if we made it funny and sexy?” Chick Fight is, of course, neither. Because men that presumably met women for the very first time when casting and shooting the film, made […]

Kajillionaire: DVD

Kajillionaire Director: Miranda July Plan B Pictures / Focus Films Across books and movies – and various performance-art pieces, her one-woman shows and talks – Miranda July has built a worldview through using the lens of empathy to consider the largely unimaginable, the downright quirky, the weird and profoundly wonderful; there’s a darker edge in […]

WWE TLC – Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2020: DVD

TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2020 WWE Madman This was just a solid PPV card from start to finish – no massive duds, nothing that totally blew me away but some quality matches, solid booking and it pretty much all made sense and went off hitch-free. Opener, a ladder match (always a great way to […]

Fatman: DVD

Fatman (Blu-Ray) Directors: Eshom and Ian Nelms Madman Elton John has made more bad albums than good. That’s a fact. But of course he still shows the chops, those classic albums have their magical moments and he’s fondly remembered as being, well, ‘good’. To endure one of his worst songs is something, but you can […]

SIX60 – Till The Lights Go Out: DVD

SIX60: Till The Lights Go Out Director: Julia Parnell Notable Pictures Six60 was the brainchild of New Zealand’s 38th Prime Minister, Sir John Philip Key. As the patron saint of populism, Key invented the band in a rundown Dunedin Scarfie/Breather squat-hole partly to distract from the housing crisis, but mostly so his son Max had […]

Survivor Series 2020 WWE Madman One of the original PPV events from the old days – Survivor Series 2020 faces the adaptation or die model that the WWE now has well in place; video screens dangling in the arena in place of an actual live crowd. It’s bedded in now – we’re used to it. […]
