This episode carries on from where the last one left off, continuing to tell the story. It returns to tell the history of ‘The Lost Colony’ and of the house. The show moves well into American Horror Story territory, being scary at times. In particular the scares became more real, moving away from hidden or disappearing […]

‘Birdemic’ is a movie that I’ve always heard about in hushed whispers but have never got a chance to watch. There was no doubt in my mind that it was going to be just as awful as the internet had warned me. But yet, I decided to see for myself, just to prove it. WHAT’S […]

If you haven’t gathered from one of my previous Rewind posts, I am a huge Roald Dahl fan. Recently I’ve been rereading my old favourites and rediscovering ones I don’t remember liking very much as a child. Two such titles are Danny the Champion of the World and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. While I […]

This episode felt like progress as it brought most of our characters away from rationalising everything and delved deeper into the real plot. The episode opens with another short flash-forward piece which began to make this show feel like a real documentary. The episode then proceeded to follow the story of Lee’s lost daughter Flora […]

Free from the baggage of remaking a cult classic, as was his 2013 feature film debut Evil Dead, director Fede Alvarez has opted to make a dense, minimal thriller of his very own. Made with the co-operation of the producers from Evil Dead, Don’t Breathe is a claustrophobic, grueling riff on the cabin in the […]

Now, more than ever, we’re aware of the background happenings of the opulent lives that the rich and famous are living. If they aren’t posting it on Instasnap or whatever, there’s some pervy paparazzo selling the information to the highest bidder. In The Fade Out, Ed Brubaker, Sean Philips and Elizabeth Breitweiser mix a little of James Ellroy‘s L.A. Confidential and Kenneth […]

2002 was an odd time to be alive. A year where Matt Damon voiced a horse, The Queen Mother died and people thought it was still a good idea for Eminem to continue making music. Considering I was about 8 at the time, I don’t really remember much of the year itself, but one thing […]

It’s no secret that I am a huge fan of Cartoon Network’s ‘Steven Universe.’ The avid Crystal Gems fan that I am, it should come as no surprise that have been psyched for the new addition to the series. ‘Guide to the Crystal Gems‘ is a supplementary book that Rebecca Sugar wrote to accompany the […]
