20th Century Flicks, Bristol

Veronica is a dissatisfied member of the in-crowd at high school until she meets JD, a cool newcomer to town, and they decide to play a practical joke on the 'queen bee', unaware she's about to become complicit in a series of murders. An offbeat, highly original and very black teen comedy. Brilliant, one to watch. find out more...

JENNIFER'S BODY (2009)

Certification15 Our Rating

When nerdy Needy's sexy cheerleader best friend Jennifer disappears one night after a gig only to surface covered in blood and spewing excesses of black goo and as one after another of their male classmates turn up dead and gutted Needy starts to suspect Jen.
A teen movie for girls after something different or males who fancy Megan Fox (there's even an incredibly unsubtle erotic lesbian kiss) and all disguised as a comedy horror. 'Jennifer's Body' is bound not to appeal to normal adults. find out more...

LENNY (1974)

Certification15 Our Rating

Hoffman is outstanding, especially in the night club stand up comedy scenes, as the flawed cult NY genius Lenny Bruce, the Beat Generation kid who became a blueprint for a new kind of entertainer with his outrageous anti-establishment routine, his profanities, his attitude toward drugs, his irreverence and general anarchistic demeanour. A must for all budding stand up comedians and fans of good movies. find out more...

LIFE OF BRIAN (1979)

Certification15 Our Rating

Brilliant Monty Python skit on the life of Christ which also takes a few swipes at the sectarian nature of British left wing political parties. Brian never wanted to be a messiah but fame is thrust upon him. Caused a huge outcry when it was released. Still banned in the Republic of Ireland!! find out more...

NICE DREAMS (1982)

Certification18 Our Rating

The two wacky comedians realise their dreams when they make a fortune out of their special formula ice-cream. Except that nothing is ever so simple, and they exchange it for a worthless cheque and have to go to a loony bin to recover the dosh, along with various other spaced out adventures. find out more...

NUTS IN MAY (1980)

CertificationPG Our Rating

A brilliant film the by same director as 'Abigail's Party'. Keith Pratt is the last of the Boy Scouts and with his equally ridiculous wife Candice Marie, they set out on the wilds of a Dorset campsite for their hols, but their health food and knitted way of life don't quite fit in. Darkly funny and eminently quotable, it's a home grown joy of unparalleled quality. find out more...

PLANET TERROR (2007)

Certification18 Our Rating

An experimental bio-weapon is released turning thousands of people into zombies and, as the multiplying horde of frenzied crazies approach, a dangerous outlaw named Wray, a sexy stripper named Cherry, an unscrupulous smuggler named Abby and the curiously incapacitated Dr Dakota Block, amongst others, must try to escape to a place untouched by the nightmare. The B-movie reinvented, "Planet Terror" is a considerably more successful attempt at homage to the American drive-in Grindhouse cinema than find out more...

Newman is coach of the Chiefs, a third rate ice hockey team. To build up their attendances he hires three oddball characters whose sole asset is an ability to play extremely violently.
