Inspired by true events it's a film about a cover up of the true vaccine results taken by large samples of Africans in Kenya ... An english diplomats wife gets heavily involved leading to tragedy.
Highly recommended 8/10
Becky (on Shudder)
Becky is a very angry teenager, struggling to come to terms with her mother's death and her father's plans to remarry. When the family is taken hostage by a group of escaped convicts (led by Kevin James, aka Paul Blart, Mall Cop, looking like Kirk Windstein from Crowbar), Becky takes matters into her own hands... this is a pretty effective little revenge thriller, perhaps a tad excessive on the violence but it would've gone down well with a horror festival audience.
Zombie For Sale (on Amazon Prime)
A run-down petrol station in the countryside is the unlikely setting for a zombie outbreak in this Korean horror comedy. It's very nicely shot, well acted and pretty funny, but the story itself is really treading water at times and the film's way too long... still worth a watch though.
The Inheritance (on Amazon Prime)
An American woman inherits her grandfather's house in Eastern Europe, and finds it's haunted by family secrets from decades earlier... The boring generic title should've been warning enough; this is dressed up as a horror movie but actually plays like one of those ITV midweek thrillers. It's absolute tripe. But interestingly, it was filmed in Kyiv - which took me aback, as the film was a completely random choice. Kyiv (in 2020) looks interesting but is portrayed as very empty... and very unfriendly.
Even though it's an Emmerich film, I was unprepared for quite how bad this film turned out to be. I'm not too sure where to start - the absolutely preposterous plot? The crap acting? The (to my eyes at least) tedious CGI? All present and correct in spade-loads, but the most unforgivable aspect of this car-crash of a film is that it is boring. B-O-R-I-N-G. What Donald Sutherland thought he was doing in his cameo role I really don't know - I can only conclude he needed the wedge and the producers thought he'd bring some gravitas to the whole sorry proceedings (he didn't).
1/10, and the 1 is for John Bradley's unintentionally hilarious 'comic' turn. Dire.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Cusack is excellent as the hack whose cynicism is very quickly replaced by sheer terror as the true nature of room 1408 reveals itself. Some nice white knuckle moments - no gore or ghouls, just a nice ramping up of psychological pressure and tension.
One minor criticism would be that it felt around 15 minutes too long, but I'm nit-picking - it's a well-made, well-acted movie which kept me pretty involved for most (but not all) of it's 104 minute run-time. A solid 7.5/10.
Can’t talk about it in much detail without spoilers but it’s fantastic. Highly enjoyable, well worth bring in Sam Raimi and there are a couple of things that had me jumping up and down with excitement.
Based on true events during the space race of the early 60s, three brilliant black, female NASA mathematicians strive to overcome backwards attitudes of the day to help put John Glen into orbit.

Bit of trading feedback here.
You should read up on the true story ... especially whilst it's fresh in your mind ... I recall it being even more impactful.
I remember seeing this 'on video' back in the eighties and liking it. Vincent Price, Donald Pleasance, Simon Ward, Britt Ekland in a short story compilation that features B.A 'Bang, Bang, the mighty fall' Robertson and The Pretty Things on stage plus a stripper the like you've never seen before. They entertain a gathering of werewolves, witches, vampires and an array of 'monsters' some of which we know and love, others that need an explanation.
Vincent Price and John Carradine perfect as the host and his guest, this could've easily have been made into a TV series that I'm sure would've been essential cult classic viewing then and even now.
It's showing on Talking Pictures
9/10
Sadly, I missed the first half hour but it's right in yer face, so easy to pick up.
It's about the Argyll & Sutherland Highlander POWs that were enslaved and brutalised to build the Thailand death railway in WW2.
It's powerful and it's horrendous so be prepared ... forget dodgy accents, token Americans and over-zealous Japanese outbursts ... ultimately it's about humanity and the search for forgiveness and peace.
Can't say much more without spoiling so just go watch it and strap-in for the emotional ride. It'll bend you out of shape methinks ... it did me.
I'd say a strong 8/10 because it's a true story.
Dog Soldiers, with Sean Pertwee leading a band of soldiers on exercise in Scotland (I think?) but who are then hounded by werewolves…..
Grabbers, set on a small island of the the coast of Ireland where the only way to remain safe from the alien is to be pissed!
