Preacher Season 1 Episode 10 Review – ‘Call and Response’
Martin Carr reviews the season one finale of Preacher… Interrogation scenes are nasty. Half the time any punishment metered out is never seen only heard, because to be effective an audience imagination remains essential. Let me remind the men of Casino Royale when Craig is tied to that chair and his man parts are discreetly […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 11 Review – ‘Heavenly Creatures’
Martin Carr reviews the eleventh episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… As usual I am running behind schedule. Up against it and the creator of my own predicament.

Preacher Season 1 Episode 9 Review – ‘Finish The Song’
Martin Carr reviews the ninth episode of Preacher… Preacher will become a landmark series. People will look back at this ‘R’ rated piece of ephemera in years to come and remember what was done here.

Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 9 Review – ‘The Orphanage’
Martin Carr reviews the ninth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Over the course of ‘The Orphanage’ there is some serious film referencing beyond that obvious tagline, which includes the eponymous Phantasm series and B-movie mainstay April Fool’s Day.

Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 8 Review – ‘Village of the Damned’
Martin Carr reviews the eighth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Some smoking remains and the decapitated right hand of a known philanderer form the basis of our latest trip to Lakewood.

Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 10 Review – ‘Bedtime Story’
Martin Carr reviews the season two finale of Wayward Pines… The pigeons have come home to roost in a season finale which delivers where others have failed.

With the inevitable threads beginning to unravel Patric finally steps up […]
Preacher Season 1 Episode 8 Review – ‘El Valero’
Martin Carr reviews the eighth episode of Preacher… Things came to an intestinal head last week with El Valero’s combining form and one pissed off Preacher holed up in his chapel of love. Hallucinations, theological discussions and mad beggars on diggers turned episode eight into yet another what the hell happened sort of affair. Combining […]
Scream Season 2 Episode 7 Review – ‘Let The Right One In’
Martin Carr reviews the seventh episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Unlike other shows Scream is a good old fashioned pastiche to its very marrow. There are no genre boundaries being traversed, no wild revelations or people trying too hard in the drama department. This is just predictable slaughter on a weekly basis […]
