There are few things in this world that make me more happy than BBC One and the awesome dramas they seem to keep churning out. I recently signed up for Netflix (yes, I know) and got to enjoy the very awesome Broadchurch, a crime drama that only the British could make. Not only is the show well acted, with actors like …

We won’t see Tom Hiddleston in action in any of the Marvel movies coming out this year, but he has been using the opportunity to do something different and more creative in director Ben Wheatley’s upcoming film, High Rise. Hiddleston plays a doctor named Robert Laing who moves into a high-end apartment building and starts to get seduced by the luxurious life …

We’ve been inundated with a lot of news about the next Thor installment, Thor: Ragnarok, which you can read, here, here and here. Although it is not the next movie in the MCU to be gracing our story (or even close), as Captain America: Civil War will be gracing the big screens this year, it is certainly the one getting the …

Tom Hiddleston was once quite a low-key actor until his major breakout role as the rather naughty, adopted Asgardian Loki… See what I did there?! It’s always difficult to move away from a character that so many people love and into other roles where similarities are not drawn. I think in this case Hiddleston has hit the nail on the …

It’s (almost) all about Halloween this weekend! We have a surprisingly good meta-adaptation of the famously spooky R.L. Stine book series Goosebumps, a disturbing but beautiful horror love story from Guillermo del Toro, a sadly not-so-scary home invasion thriller, a movie about the dark allure of violent gangsters, and one Russian produced and Afrikaans dubbed animated movie about The Snow …

Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak has all the ingredients to make one fine movie. Unfortunately, there might just be too many ingredients to make it all work. You will see big creepy, creaking buildings, dark characters, creatively designed ghosts (even if they look poorly CGI’d) and all of this certainly appears to make for a good horror movie just in …

Up until George Miller’s recent “mad” resurgence, I would have said that Guillermo Del Toro is probably the most visually imaginative director working in the Hollywood studio system. The Pan’s Labyrinth and Pacific Rim helmer builds such sumptuously fantastical worlds in his movies, that even if the movies themselves don’t always work holistically, at least they look utterly amazing. With …

I don’t believe in ghosts at all. But I also never used to believe that I would see a live-action Hollywood blockbuster where a giant robot uses a freight ship as baseball bat to bliksem a giant sea-monster in the face, and writer-director Guillermo Del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy series, Pacific Rim) sure changed that. Maybe he can do the same for …
