Orson Welles lent his name to many an enterprise as his life went on, largely with the purpose of raising funds for his own projects which stuttered into life - if he was lucky, and if he was luckier,...
"The first Stephen King story written expressly for the scream!" went the tagline to Sleepwalkers, a suitably ridiculous bit of punning that leaves you uncertain of how seriously to take the mo...
You know that old adage that you're never less than six feet from a rat in this world? Thanks to the internet and its related technology, now you can say with some truth that as you go about your day...
Some directors are lucky enough to be an overnight success, but David Lynch was not one of them. He had made a small handful of short films before tackling his feature debut Eraserhead, but it...
Somehow, werewolves on film are more adaptable than any of the classic monsters, despite being landed with as many rules and regulations for their portrayal as vampires. We all know the bloodsuckers ...
Rose: A Love Story is a romantic horror film starring Sophie Rundle and Matt Stokoe, who also penned the script, set in a wilderness of trees where a man obsessively looks after his wife, who s...
"But what I really want to do is direct!" We've all heard that one before, and it seems every big star from Sir Laurence Olivier to Madonna has wanted to try their hand at the helm of their own movie...
Ever since George Melies took up his camera at the turn of the nineteenth century, there have been filmmakers endeavouring to recreate dreams on film, as the medium is often described as akin to watch...
Ruckus and Lane Skye are a husband and wife team of writers and directors who gained international interest from their work scripting Becky, which pits a thirteen-year-old girl (Lulu Wil...
The circus has fallen out of favour as a location for films, and not even those Cirque du Soleil-style acrobatic spectacles make much of an impact on the twenty-first century medium, aside from one as...
The home invasion genre was not a new one by the time The Strangers was released in 2008, in fact you could go way back to the nineteen-fifties and the Humphrey Bogart thriller The Desperate...
Honey Lauren is a writer and director whose latest short is Wives of the Skies, a provocative and surprising pastiche of the way air hostesses were expected to present themselves back in...
After the Fox holds an odd position in star Peter Sellers' canon, for it marked the point when his career started to go on the wane, although this was only in comparison to his superstar status...
It's called The Beautiful Game in Britain, football that is, though if you're not a fan you may wonder what's so beautiful about it. Indeed, if you're not a fan, then maybe you're a film buff instead...
Veronica Lake and Alan Ladd were a match made in movie heaven, which ironically is where they ended up, their lives curtailed by mental health issues and alcoholism to each die at the age of fifty yea...
If there's a big name in British science fiction, the brand that anyone can recognise across the world, it is Doctor Who, the BBC Television series that has lasted, on and off, from 1963 to thi...
Benny Hill (1924-92) was a cheeky comedian who conquered Britain, then the world, but infamously despite being a multimillionaire thanks to his success, never spent his massive profits and preferred t...

Equus, the play, was a sensation on the London stage and later, on Broadway, where it became the hottest ticket around in both locations, so obviously a film had to be made of it to set those p...
You know the story by now. George Lucas wanted to make a Flash Gordon movie, but the rights were too expensive for him and he was forced to invent his own characters and narrative based on the Alex R...
Back in the late nineteen-eighties, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure almost wasn't released at all, for shortly after it was made in 1987, its production company, run by Dino De Laurentiis, wen...
