George Romero's classic horror satire gets a rather more serious modern day makeover, resulting in a genuinely frightening addition to the zombie genre. The plot remains fairly true to the original, portraying a world where all the seats around Satan's dinner table have been filled, forcing the recently departed to walk the earth instead. Only this time they don't walk, see. They run. And it is this subtle change that moves this film from gory satire to an edge-of-the-futon suspense horror, as a find out more...

Day Watch is a tour-de-force of post-Communist Russian cinema and has become the country's biggest grossing movie to date; it continues the saga of light vs dark begun in 'Night Watch' and is crammed full of stunning special effects and action. If you liked 'Night Watch' then "Day Watch" will give you much, much more of what you want... fabulous (if not somewhat incomprehensible). find out more...

The morally vacuous tale of an architect who goes on a gun-happy vigilante mission after his wife is murdered and his daughter assaulted to the point of catatonia (by a very sleazy looking Jeff Goldblum in his first screen role). Stalking the dark and dingy streets of a New York, where every shadowy corner hides a low-life punk willing to kill you for your loose change, Bronson dispenses his own inimitable brand of justice. Despite its age 'Death Wish' still has the power to pack a punch and its find out more...

One of the best suspense thrillers ever made - often imitated and rarely bettered. It's of the intrepid city adventurers up against in-bred redneck natives mould and the rednecks have the natural advantage, being both horribly cruel and at home in the woods. For anyone who enjoyed "Southern Comfort". find out more...

One of the finest Spaghetti's in the west! Banned for 25 years, it has lost nothing of its hard-edged impact. The gringos are bad and the law are worse! The hero, Django, dispenses justice from a smoking Gatling gun, and sounds like a dubbed Clint Eastwood. Absolutely superb! find out more...

This film, which sparked off the reactionary Rambo series, is a gem. Stallone plays a skilled jungle fighter, who finds himself a social outcast on his return from Vietnam, and makes war with the authoritarian uniformed forces whom he once represented. Both cool on action and politically PC, a must watch for those who think the Rambo character was purely a demented racist imperialist with a ridiculously accurate gun. find out more...
