Hasan Karacadag interview: D@bbe and new Turkish horror

Never seen a Turkish horror movie? Traditionally, there haven’t been many of them about. But that’s all changing now… Historically, Turkey has had a difficult relationship with genre. Although inspired by Japanese and American horror,D@bbehad a strong Turco-Islamic identity. The floodgates opened and Turkish horror, much of which was rooted in Islamic demonology, exploded. Was it something that interested you from an early age? I had a great interest in mysticism since my childhood....

Shameless: A Night to Remem – Wait, What? Review

Fiona’s newest relationship is going very well. Perhaps a little too well? Well I feel sheepish. This must be like what happens when you trust your luggage to Ian Gallagher. Yes, tonightsShameless, A Night to Remem Wait, What? dropped a bombshell that proved that yes Fi still gets a high off of craziness. This is quite literally what annulment was invented for. In fact, its a night so wonderful that he cant remember a damn thing about it....

12 Monkeys: Cassandra Complex review

This12 Monkeysreview contains spoilers. But thats not even the truly impressive part! Im reserving judgment on the 2043 subplot in this episode until I see where its going. But will the new dangers in the future distract from the solutions sought in the past? Thats just the kind of paradoxical mayhem12 Monkeysis starting to be known for. Rating: 4.5 out of 5

Banshee: Real Life Is the Nightmare

Banshee packs an emotional punch in tonight’s episode. Will Hood leave Banshee? WhileBansheeis certainly renowned for its hyperbolic violence, this series is just as comfortable reveling in quieter character moments. Hes had a good run, but all good things must come to an end. We see some very fine acting from Antony Starr in these scenes, especially with Deva. Hood knows he cant be the father his troubled daughter needs....

Games nobody talks about anymore: Eric And The Floaters

You probably remember Bomberman. But what about Eric And The Floaters, the very earliest entry in the series…? When the Famicom launched in 1983, Hudson became the first third-party developer for Nintendos debut console. Bombermans long-running success is such that almost everyone whos played it will have their own favourite. Some might favour the various iterations which appeared on the PC Engine. Others may have played it on the SNES, or the superb incarnation for the Sega Saturn....

Helix: Scion Review

Helix continues to lurch along, looking for footing on this island of paranoia and mistrust. Will it overcome its own ridiculousness? Last year, Hatake was grilled: Why didnt you tell us there were monkeys? This year, its Brother Michael, Why didnt you tell us there were super-fast zombies in the woods? Or something to that effect. I gotta give the abbey inhabitants one thing, though. They have many more levels of devious conspirators among their number than Arctic Biosystems ever had....

I am a literary god. Bow to my whims, minions. I mean…moving on. Tonights episode sought to deal with the case of the murdering raping sadist responsible for Kitty Winters dark past. Also, I would very much like for her to get a spin-off....

Roy Conli interview: Big Hero 6, reading & Tangled 2

And he tells us why it never happened. Its a little emotional. Ad content continues below We had a young man working with us, who we lost. It was Andy, and he was helping us in the marketing department. It was surprising and sudden. He was relatively young, and unfortunately we lost him. Were talking about a film about loss. He was a lovely, lovely man. You seem to have made a conscious point here to make a comic book movie without guns....

Short Film Fanclub: Hotel Chevalier

Then the phone rings. (Long pause) No. That was a long pause. This is a woman that in many ways he clearly cant stand. He is anxious, stand-offish and really not that happy to see her. In fact if you had to define their relationship with one word it would be hate, not love. Yet by the time of the main film, Jack is clearly still besotted with her. What is it that makes us repeat things we know are no good for us?...
