    Movie Review | Ali Gray | 11th September 2017

    I've had nightmares like mother!, proper sweat-drenched, bolt-upright air-gaspers that have left me shaken for hours. The ones where ordinary, mundane events turn hellish in an instant. The ones where your loved ones are there too but they're in on the bad juju, their blank faces betraying the feverish insanity you feel. Mother!, the new movie from Darren Aronofsky, is the closest a film has ever come to replicating one of those bad dreams; how quickly the drip-drip-drip of reason gushes into madness, how helpless we are in the face of our own demons and how it's always the ones we love that hurt us most. That exclamation mark in the title does not signify a comedy - it's the kind you see shortly before you plummet off a cliff.

  • Box-office report: Avengers: Age Of Ultron makes total fucking shit-tonne

    Movie Feature | Ali Gray | 26th April 2015

    The first Avengers movie broke records when it scored a fucking massive domestic opening weekend of $204.7 million fucking dollars, but sequel Age Of Ultron looks like it might make even more fucking money than that, with a fucking astonishing take of $201.2 million fucking dollars internationally - and that's before the fucking thing has even fucking opened in America.

  • TV shows dressed up for Halloween

    TV Feature | Matt Looker, Ali Gray, Kirsty Harrison, Ed Williamson, Cal King | 31st October 2011

    It's not just fat kids and humiliated parents that parade themselves in crappy costumes on Halloween. Thanks to some Photoshop tricks and treats, we have a whole group of TV shows masquerading under spooky aliases ready to shout 'boo' before holding out their hand for some Haribo.

  • Mother's Day

    Movie Review | Ali | 11th June 2011

    The home invasion genre has been pretty vacant since The Strangers moved in a few years ago, but that hasn't stopped men like Darren Lynn Bousman from trying to muscle his way into the neighbourhood. Bousman, who directed Saws II, III and IV – plus the rarely mentioned, Paris Hilton-starring horror musical Repo! The Genetic Opera (exclamation mark the director's own) – has managed to find a horror property from the 80s that no one really gave a shit about to remake. A formula for success!
