  Lynch / Oz 2022

  ★★★½ Watched by Bede Jermyn 09 Aug 2022

  While it’s tad too long than it needed to be and it feels more like an extended video essay, Alexandre O. Philippe’s latest is still a really fascinating and insightful documentary on how the film THE WIZARD OF OZ influenced David Lynch’s filmography.

  Funny Pages 2022

  ★★★½ Watched by Bede Jermyn 08 Aug 2022

  I wasn’t sure what to expect from former child star Owen Kline’s first directorial effort, but I found a solid debut for him. Despite some jarring tonal shifts at times, it’s a funny, quirky and satirical dark comedy with some interesting themes at its core.

  Prey 2022

  ★★★★ Watched by Bede Jermyn 04 Aug 2022 6

  As a fan of the whole PREDATOR franchise, this is definitely one of the strongest and most well rounded entries in the series. It’s hugely entertaining, engaging, atmospheric, intense, beautifully
  shot and bloody. Lead star Amber Midthunder was great in the lead role.

  Hellboy 2019

  ★★★½ Watched by Bede Jermyn 11 Apr 2019 3

  I think we have found this decade’s THE PUNISHER: WAR ZONE. While it doesn’t have the sophistication or personal touch of the Guillermo del Toro films, this reboot of the HELLBOY series has its own tone/vibe that makes it stand on its own as a film. It’s messy, gory, insane, weird and very entertaining. Imagine it this way: if The Cannon Group did a version of HB, it would be this. Whether that’s a good thing or bad thing, I’ll leave it up to you. For me personally, I had a really fun time with it.
