City Heat and the Crushing Weight of Audience Expectation

June 5, 2022 Paul Ferry

Every now and then, Hollywood hurls an inexplicable amount of money at a project that doesn’t have ground-breaking special effects, towering sets, a cast of thousands or any particular degree of spectacle, simply because they have a ridiculous amount of … Continue reading City Heat and the Crushing Weight of Audience Expectation

Old: Review

March 27, 2022 Paul Ferry

Warning: Contains Spoilers! M. Night Shyamalan is surely one of Hollywood’s most inconsistent directors. In a career with more peaks and troughs than a pig farm in the Andes, he’s directed everything from solid gold classics like The Sixth Sense … Continue reading Old: Review

The Book of Boba Fett: Review

February 13, 2022February 13, 2022 Paul Ferry

Warning: Contains Spoilers! Like most kids who were into Star Wars, I loved Boba Fett in the 1980s. Unlike most kids, it was the sparseness of his big screen appearances that attracted me to him. He’s such a cool character, … Continue reading The Book of Boba Fett: Review

Ghostbusters Afterlife: Review

February 10, 2022 Paul Ferry

Warning: Contains Spoilers! In preparation for writing this review, I forced myself to watch the 2016 Ghostbusters remake, as I thought I might have to make comparisons and it didn’t seem fair without having at least watched it. I tried … Continue reading Ghostbusters Afterlife: Review

You Missed, Mr. Bond: The Unlikely Story of Casino Royale*

October 31, 2021 Paul Ferry

*No, not that one. By the time I was born in 1970, the James Bond films were already well established, having enjoyed almost a decade on the silver screen, two Bonds and six films. Well, I say six films – … Continue reading You Missed, Mr. Bond: The Unlikely Story of Casino Royale*

High Moon: Outland Revisited

September 9, 2021 Paul Ferry

I’ve always been a big fan of Peter Hyams’ 1981 science fiction thriller Outland, though I’m aware that I’m in something of a minority. All I can imagine is that in the wake of Alien (1980) a lot of sci-fi … Continue reading High Moon: Outland Revisited

Return to the Lost Continent!

May 8, 2021May 11, 2021 Paul Ferry

The name of Hammer Films is now inseparably attached to classic horror, but this occurred more by financial necessity than artistic choice. Throughout their 60s heyday, the studio were trying to get all manner of projects off the ground, their … Continue reading Return to the Lost Continent!

Wanna See Something Really Scary? Revisiting Twilight Zone – The Movie

April 13, 2021 Paul Ferry

The first Twilight Zone I ever saw was Twilight Zone – The Movie. Okay, don’t judge; I was born in 1970, before the age of even the domestic video recorder and the three TV channels that existed in Britain at … Continue reading Wanna See Something Really Scary? Revisiting Twilight Zone – The Movie
