Here’s an interesting little teaser for a forthcoming zombie apocalypse animation called A.D., from writer Haylar Garcia and director Ben Hibon. I’m a somewhat vocal critic of the zombie genre; appealing though it may be, the sheer volume of terrible films, movies and games featuring some form of the walking dead has led me to […]

Video Spotlight: The Third & The Seventh
If you’re not especially smitten with fine art and architecture, you’d almost be forgiven for overlooking The Third & The Seventh.

Movie Trailer: Alice In Wonderland
Well here it is, then. A brand new trailer for Tim Burton‘s upcoming update of the old classic, and it looks – for lack of a better adjective – rather timburtony. The usual suspects are here – Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter – alongside a strong and suitably kooky cast including Crispin Glover, Alan Rickman […]

Movie Trailer: How To Train Your Dragon
Look, I’m just going to come out and say it: I hated Shrek. The first one and all its lousy sequels. Maybe it’s that I was already sick of Mike Myers’ ‘Scottish’ accent long before the first Shrek came out, or that I can’t stand Eddie Murphy, or that the goofy animation style really bugged […]
