Dec 27, 2014Backwoods Brutality/Evil Children
Highly effective British variant on the Backwoods Brutality film with an innocent couple being pursued through the woods by a group of murderous children. This gets its teeth into you with gruelling tension and rarely lets up until the end

300: Rise of an Empire (2014)
Rating: ★★½
Mar 8, 2014Fantasticised Historical Battle
Less a 300 sequel or prequel than a parallel story, this offers much the same as before but in 3D and with naval instead of land combat. Seeing Zack Snyder's amazing visuals repeated all over again, all the poses and hyper-masculinity now seem to bubble with an inherent risibility.

Rating: ★★★
Aug 9, 2025Post-Holocaust/The Zombie Apocalypse
28 Days Later was the work that started the modern zombie film revival. Twenty-three years later, Danny Boyle and Alex Garland return to make a third film and still wring some creativity out of the set-up

28 Years Later … The Bone Temple (2026)
Rating: ★★★
Feb 28, 2026Post-Holocaust/The Zombie Apocalypse
A follow-up to 28 Years Later …, made even before the first film was released. This gives a deeper exploration of the character of Dr Kelson and proves a surprisingly good complement to its predecessor
