I'm Gav, host of the "My Favourite Film" Podcast, by day I'm a teacher by night, well that's a different matter. I have broad and quite geeky tastes in film, tv, comic books, and pretty much anything else that's going. If it's a new zombie film, book, comic, TV, I'm there but I'll sit down and watch, listen or read pretty much anything from the latest Disney animated movie to the latest Blumhouse.

Yokai Monsters Collection (1968/2005)(Review)

Before starting this review I have to ask you the question: have you heard of Yokai? If not this is definitely the place to start, if you have then this should be a great addition to your Blu-Ray collection. Arrow Video has collected together the original Yokai trilogy: 100 Monsters, […]
