The Killer (1989)

Directed by John Woo and starring Chow Yun Fat as a proffesional hit man this is an unusual blend of superb choreographed action, a limitless body count and endless fag smoking, all served with a healthy portion on bromance. Between the endless killings its fairly humerous, but doesn't live up to the hype. The action, however is second to none.

Macabre (1980)

Directed by Lamberto Bava and allegedly based on a true story that took place in New Orleans the film depicts an adulterous woman's decent into madness after both her son and lover die. Although this hasn't aged particularly well its beautifully shot and is is unintentionally hilarious in places. Definately a strange little movie and worth a watch if you enjoy old Italian genre films. If you don't avoid as you'll probably find it boring. The end however is an absolute treat!

Piranha 3D (2010)

Directed by Alexandre Aja of 'Switchblade Romance' and 'Hills Have Eyes' fame, this light hearted teen romp is nothing more than good fun. Ridiculous in places, tongue in cheek in others, all with plenty of cheer inducing gore! Home 3D worked ok too.

Inside (2007 Unrated Version)

An uncomfortable and unflinching watch. Gorey yet intelligently written, willfully playing with its audiences expectations. Superbly acted and a great score. Worth tracking down Dimension Extremes Unrated Version as im not sure if its been fiddled with by the BBFC. Not a first date movie but definately worth a watch.
8/10

The Dead (2010)

An achievement when you find out what the Ford Brothers went through to make this film . Shot in Africa and with some beautifully shot scenes the film focuses on a 2 mens quest for survival amidst the zombie apocalypse. Even with some nice slow moving zombies the film never quite captures a feeling of dread or despair and ultimately doesn't really push the envelope as far as the story goes. A clunky script and wooden acting from the lead characters didn't help either. Overall its a little disappointing and very slow paced.

Manufactured Landscapes (2006)

Documentary directed by Jeniffer Baichwal, this must see film follows the stunning photography of Edward Burtynsky, touching on so many issues regarding de-humanization, mass manufacturing and mass industrialization. The film documents some amazing imagery without being judgmental or biased. Its not for everyone, but its definitely worth a watch.

We Need To Talk About Kevin

Adapted from the widely acclaimed novel from Lionel Shreiver and with an overwhelming fanbase I feel a lot of people are fairly forgiving for some of the films failures. Having not read the book and being oblivious to its content I watched this with a clear pallet. The film successfully conveys a feeling of dread,  but through a series of early flashbacks spoils the shock ending that the film ultimately builds to. The end reveal didn't quite work and didn't provide the payoff I was hoping for.
