Witch (2024)
Loved the combination of horror, fantasy and even Sci-Fi
Saw the poster and thought -wow! So much intrigue. Then I thought, not another cheap Indy film -how wrong could I be!! The film set was incredible! Cinematography on another level I really wanted to see more in the world of Witch... The story pulls you in from the opening scene (no spoilers)... Acting solid and even the lesser characters had their say.. what stood out for which a a lot of movies fall by the wayside is pacing.... Witch felt just right. Mr Hinde, Zammit and co deserve huge credit for making an incredible film. I loved it! Just to add...bit scary for kids especially under 15 8/10.
The Lockdown Hauntings (2021)
Psychological horror film that presses all the right buttons
Howard J Ford does it again!! You can't keep this man down- the fact of the matter is- who makes a feature film in pandemic?!! A modern day indy filmmaker! This is no zoom style film like we see nowadays! How did he do it? Great to see so many women roles- strong performances from Angela Dixon and upcoming actress Tiffany Daniels! What's not to like? It's incredible and I so wish I could get to see this at the cinema and experience the incredible music!! Well done guys!
The Goodbye Girl (2018)
A mix between Final Destination & a gritty version of The Omen
A mix between Final Destination & a gritty version of The Omen
Real, honest, gritty and heartfelt. Congratulations to everyone involved. Loved Mr Garrad's role, nice turn of events at the end with his performance, very understated. Tunnicliff explosive and very realistic. The young girl was great too- lovely stillness. Real gritty performances from all the cast. Great pacing and terrific soundtrack! Well done all. Film Director Aidy Pugh one to look out for!
Homeless Ashes (2019)
Powerful Film with a Powerful Message
Shining a light on homelessness & domestic violence.
Having had the opportunity to see this film, From my experience i find it quite rare nowadays to be so effected by a film and it's story- that was not the case with Homeless Ashes.
Incredibly moving a truly wonderful film with a powerful message.
HOMELESS NOT INVISIBLE
Congratulations to everyone involved BRAVO!
I don't think i will ever watch a washing machine-mid cycle, in the same way again. No spoilers!
13 Graves (2019)
KIll List meets Wickerman
Solid dependable horror thriller with a very able cast. Special mention to Jacob Alderton as Billy who was effortless. First half was great with terrific direction. photography and a great soundtrack- which helped crank up the tension further.
Second half seemed to run out of ideas. The ending didn't make much sense and seemed a little rushed and I would personally have liked to have felt a bit more depth and empathy with the characters.
On the whole t though a great idea. that's sure to do go down well with horror fans.
