Harrison Abbott ranks Fox’s X-Men franchise from worst to best… With X-Men: Dark Phoenix bringing the curtain down on the franchise, now feels like an appropriate time to look back on everything that Fox’s X-Men series gave us over the past two decades. Granted, there have been peaks and troughs. However, I maintain that the […]
Cinema and the End of the World As We Know It
Tom Jolliffe takes a look at cinema’s end of the world fascination… As we sit in the age of Trump (currently unfazed by the plight of climate change, and skating on a sheet of thin ice as far as North Korean relations) and Brexit, aforementioned climate issues, and a general sense that democratic systems aren’t […]
90s Video Action Stars Part II – Jeff Wincott, Michael Dudikoff, Mark Dacascos and Cynthia Rothrock
Tom Jolliffe continues his look back at 90’s video action stars (read the first part here)… As I continue on with my 90’s action rampage, revisiting those VHS purveyors of fisticuffs and footicuffs (footicuffs?), I find myself already suffering brain degradation. Some films I revisit have blurred in my memory and re-watching only confirms what […]
Essential Cinema: Wake In Fright
Tom Jolliffe takes a look back at the Australian outback classic, Wake In Fright… Occasionally I’ll see a film which almost escaped attention upon initial release. Perhaps a great piece of cinema that didn’t quite stick upon its release. Wake In Fright, a key landmark in Australian cinema never quite captured the world outside the […]
Goblins, Monsters, Brown Loafers and Paranoid Schizophrenia: The True Nature of Labyrinth
Tom Jolliffe goes deep underground in the Labyrinth to uncover a darker underbelly… Celebrating its 33rd anniversary, the cult kids classic, Labyrinth has grown in reputation over the years.

Twenty years on, E.J. Moreno looks at the five most iconic horror films of 1999… The horror genre twenty years ago is a much different beast than it is now. Not regarding quality, as there are good and bad films in any year, but the way the studios handle the genre and how viewers digest the […]
A Little Bit Of Love For Tom Cruise
Tom Jolliffe shows his appreciation for Tom Cruise on the actor’s 57th birthday… Approaching 40 years in the industry. Tom Cruise has spent over 30 of those as a superstar. He’s been a box office behemoth. A star turn, a headliner and a poster boy for blockbuster pulling power. He’s also been maligned and dismissed. […]
Why Cinema Needs Nicolas Cage Cranked Up to 11
Tom Jolliffe on why Nicolas Cage at his wildest is a gift to cinema… To say Nic Cage is a divisive character would be quite the understatement. Likewise, as an actor. You could say, with great understatement, that he’s an oddball. As an actor, you could also say he tends to be most known for […]
