G.I. Blues (1960)

Well that's alright mama, that's alright with me.

The Terminator (1984)

An absolute game changer for Sci-Fi action - and he WILL be back.

The Gingerdead Man (2005) ⭐⭐

Run run while you can - here comes a stinker of a film, the Gingerdead Man!

Jack Frost (1997) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Don't eat yellow snow Remember the film about the snowman that comes to life? No, not the animated "Walking in the air" snowman, I mean the other one. No, not that friendly Michael Keaton re-animated as a nice snowman… the other one. The 1997 "Jack Frost" - you know, the killer snowman one. Written and…

Anna and the Apocalypse (2017) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A genre bending film with promise that falls slightly short If you ever wondered what you get when you cross "Hollyoaks" (TV series), with "Nativity!" (2009), "High School Musical" (2006) and "Dawn of the Dead" (1978), then wonder no more - "Anna and the Apocalypse" is here. (I actually don't need to describe the film…

Gremlins (1984) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

80s Christmas Horror cheesefest! A timeless classic - Boy gets pet, pet spawns evil monsters, boy and pet have to save town from evil monsters.

Directed by John McTiernan, with writing by Roderick Thorp, Jeb Stuart, and Steven E de Souza;…

Last Christmas, I tore out your heart... During a routine Christmas family visit to my parents, I convinced my dad and my wife to watch this film with me, knowing that their film tastes aren't that far away from my own depravity. So in true family Christmas film style we gathered around to watch what…

Santa Claus: The Movie (1985) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

As poor as I remember it being as a child, which is poorer than the orphan Joe! A family, fantasy, adventure, Christmas film from 1985 - which has been repeated on commercial TV nearly every year that I can remember since the 80's. While some people think of this film with fondness and happiness, I…
