The Navigator – A Medieval Odyssey (1984) the perfect rainy day film (Review)

The Navigator – A Medieval Odyssey (1984) the perfect rainy day film (Review)

Question: Who was originally desired to direct Alien 3? While David Fincher’s take makes for an interesting watch he wasn’t 20th Century Fox’s first pick. Vincent Ward was booked first and got as far starting production before walking away citing creative differences. While he is credited for the story it’s […]

The Lair of The White Worm (1988) Ken Russell’s campy horror take on Bram Stoker (Review)

Jordan Mair 22/02/2018
The Lair of The White Worm (1988) Ken Russell’s campy horror take on Bram Stoker (Review)

Ken Russell is a bit of a devil. In all his films you can see an unabashed joy of sex, life, and kitsch whilst having the underlying thread of Christianity throughout; explicitly or otherwise. Lair of the White Worm is no exception but, against his other works, it feels less […]
