THE STORY:
As employees of a closing amusement park get the beers in to bid farewell on the last night, they are set upon by a duo of masked killers looking to paint the rides red with their blood.

Low-low budget horror movie enthusiasts, welcome to Fright Land.  It’s closing time, but before they bow out, they give you one last fright: a slasher movie lover for slasher movie lovers.  The kills are interesting, inventive and well thought out.  Although, the hanging of the black security guard may have been an unintentional low blow.  Eek!  

Half the cast give passable performances, and of course, Doug Bradley easily steals the show with just one scene.  Sound and editing, as well as other technical aspects, could have been tighter, but that’s all part of the fun and games.  Sure we all want to be scared, but one should never take a slasher movie too seriously.

I can’t possibly spoil this for anyone, but the one thing that truly baffles me is that the big twist is the movie’s worst kept secret.  Be it on Amazon or be it on IMDb, it’s in every damn synopsis.  Was this detrimental to my enjoyment of the film?  I’ll never know, but I won’t lose any sleep over it.  Still, if this movie piques your interest – don’t read up on it.

LAST WORDS:
If you like your 80s-inspired, blood-drenched super soakers in the vein of say 2003’s low budget slasher, Halloween Camp then Scream Park could be the very thing to satisfy your lust for the shiny red stuff.  Admittedly not many come to mind, but despite any shortcomings, this may be the 2nd best amusement park based horror movie I’ve seen, behind the Charles Band-produced Ghoulies II (1988).​

After a long run of very VERY good Disney animations it was only a matter of time that we saw a dip in the streak.

Zootropolis is Disney's take on the 80's buddy cop movie which sees plucky Officer Hobbs, The first ever Bunny to make it on to the force, on her first week of the job. Hobbs goes into the job with a world of excitement and promise only to be knocked down to traffic duty. While on traffic duty Hobbs meets Nick, a sly fox who tricks Hobbs into thinking he is a caring father while he is carrying out a hustle.
Hobbs, who is looking to impress her peers demands to be given a case, talks herself into taking on the case of a missing otter while at the same time putting her career on the line. With no leads and her fellow officers not wanting to give her the time of day Hobbs teams up with Nick and the two find the case runs much much deeper.

Zootropolis (or Zootopia for our american readers) is basically a films made for adults in the form of a kids film, with several nods to films like 48 hours and The Godfather (the godfather scene actually using lines from the classic film) and we even got a Breaking Bad reference.....in a KIDS film.

I personally found myself getting bored in points and in a cinema full of families the film got little in the way of laughs. I found myself losing interested in some scenes which dragged on a little longer than needed. and this is an adult saying this so if i'm losing interested then there will be alot of kids who will feel bored. However the film was a good little watch. The voice casting was spot on and the characters gelled well. I love the strong female lead and the life lesson of 'Don't let anyone tell you you can't be someone'. The kids will enjoy the characters and the adults will enjoy the more adult themes including the Naturist resort which sees animals wandering naked and doing naked yoga and naked sports which is a hilarious scene.

As a whole Zootropolis is a decent little film but as a whole doesn't live up to the Disney run we have been use to as of late. It was missing that little something special for me personally to make this a must watch again type of film but it has a good message and some good laughs in most of the right places so a decent watch for a family weekend out.

Back in my younger days I was introduced to the Attitude Era, the era of the more risky television and some of the greatest wrestlers of ALL TIME. This was my era and was also the era where I was introduced to The Dudley Boys, everyone's favorite table wielding tag team, and a team who have got better year after year.

Straight Outta Dudleyville follows the career of Bubba Ray and D-von from their childhood to their time at ECW through the great matches of the Attitude era including the Elimination Tables Match vs the Hardys and the amazing TLC Matches at Summer Slam and Wrestlemania and through the brand split era leading all the way to their exit from WWE and the more recent return in 2015. We also get so special guest speakers on the dvd with Taz, Raven and Tommy Dreamer all reminiscing on their with the Dudleys at ECW. 

As most WWE documentaries seem to just be the build to an event style i.e batista's return (which you can find in our older review sections on the previous site) it is so nice to see them go back to proper documentaries for a legitimate future hall of fame team.  This was a nice little eye opener, looking into the life of the brothers from different mothers. I was even shocked that they mentioned TNA, a second time for WWE recently which is pretty good to see. I loved the Dudleys in TNA, the Bully Ray run for Bubba was a perfect fit but it was a shame D-von didn't get a better push.

We are give two disks of matches including TLC at wrestlemania, the Tag Team elimination tables match at royal rumble, several matches from the ECW era and even the WWE title match which saw Bubba Ray take on Triple H.

This is a MUST for all Wrestling fans.

A few years back, when I started delving into the more extreme world of horror, me and my flat mate at he time decided to watch french horror film Martyrs. It was a humbling experience, a film you can't sit there and say "I loved that film I will watch it again and again", It is the type of film which makes you think, makes you say to your self "o.....kay......what did I just experience"

So imagine my surprise when it was announce that there was going to be an american remake of the film, it was indeed a moment of WTF why?!. It is a thing we see alot in cinema and it will never change, and I am even sure the US will remake A Serbian Film which will be an awful idea.

You can't not compare this version to the 2008 original, the feel of the two films are totally different and the overall feeling when the film is over is so so much different. While the original left me silent for a while this remake just left me thinking, 'on its own merits it was a decent horror thriller.

Martyrs (2016) is a thriller, done well and well shot but this is if you review this as a film which was never seen before. It screams modern horror viewer and is probably the only way alot of film watchers will experience the film. On saying this let me cover some of my thoughts of this film as if it was indeed a solo standing on its on merits film.

It was raw in the right places, the tortured soul of Lucie came across well in her later years. The build was suspenseful and points and the torture scenes were brutal yet watered down. The Anna character didn't gel with me unfortunately, coming across as your run of the mill horror character till the very end. The film felt rushed near the climax but works fine overall.

As a whole Martyrs is a very watchable film, you won't get the same feeling from the original film and the violence is very toned down , however many people wouldn't have watched it or possibly even heard of it until now. The start of the film is pretty close to the original however the closing half is much different than the 2008 version, which is in a way good and bad depending on how you like your remakes. I would suggest watching the original more but this is my opinion and if you are not a fan of French cinema then this is a good way of catching the story but why wouldn't you want to watch a french horror masterpiece is beyond me.

Plot: Fin and Joel are two teenage wasters running wild. But they get a taste of their own medicine when a teacher at the end of his tether decides to teach both schoolboys a lesson they will never forget.

Lets be honest here for a second, kids nowadays (teenagers mostly) are little fucking shits. We all know it, we read in the papers all the time about the little hell beasts beating on the elderly, vandalizing things and, more closely related to this film, being to dicks to teachers to the point of violence.
