DVDs
Bitch Slap (2009) DVD
Any film that contains the line ‘I’m going to baste your giblets, butter-britches’ can’t be all bad, now, can it?
Talk To Me (2007) DVD
For a minor film that never made any real attack on the box office, Talk to Me is decent enough, but in no way essential viewing.
The Valley Of The Bees (1968) DVD
Although art-house blood and brains medieval rumpuses have been done before, it has never previously been quite this visceral.
Survival Of The Dead (2009) DVD
In the sixth instalment of the “Dead” family, Romero forgets to bring his brand of social commentary to the undead picnic.
Borderland (2007) DVD
Borderland is by no means a masterpiece, but a confident cast and a strong storyline makes for a pleasing watch.
Bunny And The Bull (2009) DVD
Beneath all its layers of whimsy, this cock and bull story is grounded in genuine pain and torment. It's a homemade cocktail that is bittersweet, but crazy good.
Black Snow (1990) DVD
Although it asks worthwhile questions, Black Snow ultimately stalls in second gear.
I Think We’re Alone Now (2008) DVD
The kind of thing you’d expect to find on Channel 7000 in the middle of the night.
An Inspector Calls (1954) DVD
Guy Hamilton's high-minded moralising can start to grate at times, but there's still much to enjoy.
Tower of London (1939) DVD
Basil Rathbone’s intense turn in the lead role helps counter some hammy supporting performances.
Chaw (2009) DVD
This is tusk-sharp stuff – although perhaps not quite enough so to warrant its duration of nearly two hours.
