B.O.R.N. 1988
Watched by Hollie Horror 18 May, 2013 2 This is the most terrifying role I have ever seen Clint Howard perform, something about watching him sexually assault hospitalized women makes me incredibly uneasy.
PJ Soles sports the biggest hair-do I have ever seen her with.
There's a lot of shoot-outs and yelling. The end.

Ticks 1994
Watched by Ira Brooker 15 May, 2013 1 SyFy's director of original programming stalks into the board room, jaw clenched with rage. The creative team winces as one as he slams a weathered VHS tape of Ticks down on the conference table. "This!" he snarls. "This is how you goddamned well do it!" The director turns on his heel and storms out.
After several long, awkward moments, a junior writer breaks the silence. "So, um, does anybody here still have a VCR?"

Seven Psychopaths 2012
Watched by Adam Cook 15 May, 2013 14 Seven Psychopaths is a case of difficult second movie syndrome for director, Martin McDonagh, and whilst it is probably destined for cult status, just as In Bruges was, it is a far less satisfying experience. This is a messy and self-reflexive story about a struggling Irish writer, Marty, and his difficulties with completing his latest script (also called Seven Psychopaths). Throw in the kidnapping of a mob boss’ dog and Marty’s unstable and psychopathic best friend and you’ve got a…

Star Trek Into Darkness 2013
Watched by Adam Cook 14 May, 2013 32 I don’t like the Star Trek franchise. I think it only fair I make that clear from the very beginning.
JJ Abrams’ first stab at this never-ending series re-energised the creaky Enterprise crew and delivered an accessible and breezy blockbuster in the process. This bigger, darker (well it is in the title after all) sequel is a natural progression delivering the same frenetic action, sparkling chemistry and dubious plotting as we have come to expect from practically every Abrams production.…

True Grit 2010
by Colin the dude 13 May, 2013 8 "Time just gets away from us."
Only the Coens. The most authentic western in modern memory, only the Coens could accomplish what they do here and they warrant rewatchability to spare. For one, the Coens are masters of language. Always have been, always will be. The way they go about capturing the Old West linguistics and dialects and transplant them into unique and unusual accents of characters is an absolute treat to experience and in the process, transplants the viewer…

Arachnophobia 1990
by Oli Jeffery 11 May, 2013 2 This feels like the sort of film that Steven Spielberg and Sam Raimi would come up with if they got drunk together in an airport bar, waiting for a delayed flight. As such, no bad thing.

The Last Stand 2013
Watched by Steve Grzesiak 09 May, 2013 8 If you are of a certain age, like I am, and happened to be a kid and /or a teenager when Arnold Schwarzenegger was at the height of his powers, regularly pumping out high quality action films, then the news that he was coming back to make a proper action film should have excited you a ridiclously exceptional amount.
They do say you should never go back, of course, and in the meantime he did go off and become a…
