Pirates of the Caribbean 4 wasn’t exactly the best film in the series, and that’s saying something after having watched the third movie which jumped sharks over a kraken that was swimming in a tsunami of rum. And there’s a good reason for that. Johnny Depp as the lead in a Pirates movie isn’t exactly a good idea. Sure, Jack …

HBO’s mystery-drama The Leftovers is one of those shows you need to be in just the right mood to watch – if you’re happy you soon won’t be and if you’re sad make sure to hide the razor blades – because it’s unrelentingly bleak. Primarily set in the town of Mapleton it follows a small group of inhabitants as they, …

Highlander will always be a special film to me. It’s one of the greatest stories ever told, a rollicking ride of action, romance and heads being chopped off like they were going out of style. There are a ton of elements at play in the original film, including Sean Connery’s legendary portrayal of Ramirez. Mentor, friend and brother to Connor …

Jesus wept. If there’s one film that has been stucking a strangely ironic development hell, it has to be Hellraiser. The franchise has been looking to return for many a year now, with just about every director in Hollywood attached to it at some point ion the history of its development.

That’s because while …

I really hate the word ‘reboot.’ It’s a nonsense word, dreamed up by studio marketeers because they don’t want to just call something a remake. Last Updated: October 10, 2014

Love and marriage, love and marriage, it’s an institute you can’t disparage! Growing up, I used to love watching Married…With Children. Al Bundy was an unappreciated genius, I had a strange crush on Peg Bundy and the storylines made me realise that I never ever want to be a shoe salesman. Man, the 1990s were weird. The show has been …

Just like so many of our other favourite movies from when we’re kids, we’ve (unfortunately) been hearing about a remake of John Carpenter’s cult classic Escape From New York for some time now. Luckily for our constantly attacked nostalgia (that’s right we’re looking at you, Michael Bay), there hasn’t been much momentum from this Joel Silver produced effort. But according to a new …
