Review: The Irishman is a slow burn deconstruction of mafioso mythos

Movie Review | Luke Whiston | 14th December 2019

True Blood: get your teeth into season four (sorry)

TV News | Ed Williamson | 17th May 2011

"Hello? ... Oh, hi. A couple of hundred words about the new True Blood season four promo clip? Sure, it's just ... no, but I've never actually seen it before ... What? A YouTube vid and a couple of half-arsed vampire puns will do the trick? Well then, BAT's no problem! ... What? ... No, you're right, sorry. There was no need to start straight away."

You scream, I scream, we all scream for the Scream 4 trailer

Movie Trailer | Ali | 21st October 2010
