Here we go again, Redcon-1. A thousand different websites for a thousand different zombie movies all say the same thing, this is one monster who has been exhausted way past the breaking point. In other news, rain is wet. I mock but in the past twenty years, you could probably […]

Police Story 1 & 2 (1985) Simply put, the Best Action Movie Ever Made (Review)
Let’s be honest, what is there really left to say about Police Story? It’s one of the icons of Hong Kong action, it launched a 7 movie spanning franchise, it was pivotal in making Jackie Chan one of the most beloved faces in world cinema, and above all that, it […]
Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to Hell, Bastards! (1963) All Hail Suzuki, King of Gonzo! (Review)
It has been a banner year for Seijun Suzuki thanks to Arrow (Academy & Video), with the release of two boxsets featuring 10 of his early Nikkatsu movies [video], the Taishō Roman Trilogy and now, the latest of the bunch, Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to Hell, Bastards! To be fair, […]
