Since it’s Stephen King’s birthday, your favourite podcast peeps put together a best/worst Stephen King movie adaptations episode! Listen in here (or wherever you get your podcasts) and let the arguments begin!

We’re oh-so-close to having the new website up and running! Just waiting on a few items to be delivered and it should (hopefully) be good to go by the weekend! Keep those eyes peeled (not literally)!

New Releases!

Boss Baby: Family Business – Not too sure what a Boss Baby is, and frankly I don’t want to know, but they’ve made two of these things so far!

Cruella – Follow the adventures of a young Cruella de Vil as she romps through the streets of London before becoming, er, whatever she was to become. Dog catcher? Furrier?

F9: The Fast Saga – The 9th (!) movie in the Fast and the Furious franchise goes where no car has gone before – space! As ludicrous as these dumb-ass movies are, I do have a soft spot for them for some reason.

The Furnace – Aussie adventure type film (got rave reviews!) finds a young Afghan cameleer who falls in with a mysterious bushman on the run with stolen Crown gold.

Justice League (Zack Synder cut) – The crappy Justice League movie wasn’t enough for ya? Well, here’s Zack Snyder’s 4 hour cut! All the dour, mopey superheroes you can handle!

Till Death – Meghan Fox gets herself handcuffed to her dead husband for some reason. More horror/thriller than Weekend at Bernie’s I suspect.

Unforgotten Season 4 – Cold case crime capers!

Coming Soon!

The Forever Purge
Justine
Mare of Easttown
Masquerade
Never Gonna Snow Again
The Nevers Season 1

One last thing before you can resume your normal life: This coming Halloween weekend (29th of October) your podcast heroes (Dylan, Alex and myself) will, once again, be doing a movie marathon in the shop to raise money for the Vancouver Food Bank. This time around we’ll be watching all the Nightmare on Elm Street films! If anyone out there wants to donate some cool prizes for giveaways, drop us a line at . More details to come.

Take care of yourself and others. Till next week.

New Releases!

Black Widow – Latest marvel hoo-haw has the Black Widow getting back to her roots and blowing stuff up, real good.

Divine Love – Brazilian sexy sci-fi number finds a woman whose job it is to convince divorcing couples to stay together through dance parties, ritualistic orgies and fundamentalist Christianity.

The Fool – Russian crime drama about a plumber who decides to face the corrupt system of local politics in order to save the lives of 800 inhabitants of an old dormitory, which is about to collapse. Blu Ray only.

Lady of the Manor – Fun sounding British comedy finds an aimless ne’er-do-well who becomes a tour guide in an historic estate where she befriends a ghost! A ghost I tells ya!

Slaxx – An evil haunted pair of jeans starts killing off the staff at a local trendy clothing store in this horror/comedy. What’s our heroine, Libby, gonna do?

Zola – True story (culled from a series of tweets) about the misadventures of an exotic dancer who embarks on a wild road trip to (ugh) Florida.

We were hoping to have the new amazing website launched today but the forces that be have stymied our best efforts. We’re shooting for early next week so stay tuned!

Berlin Alexanderplatz – New re-imagining of the classic series that tells the tale a refugee fellow from Africa who falls under the dangerous spell of a drug dealer in Berlin.

The Empty Man – Cool-looking (if not long) horror number about a an ex-cop fellow who, while looking for a missing girl, happens across a group of weirdos who are trying to summon an evil spirit. Heard good things about this one!

My Wonderful Wanda – Wanda works looking after an older couple and becomes embroiled in their family’s drama, comedy and pregnancy. From Switzerland!
