Mysterious Skin (2004)

May 31, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Brady Corbet, Elizabeth Shue, Michelle Trachtenberg
Director: Gregg Araki
Running Time: 100 mins
Certificate: 18
Release Date: October 24th, 2005

Gregg Araki made a name for himself with gay-themed, rather anarchic generation-X flicks like The Doom Generation and Nowhere, but 2005’s Mysterious Skin sees him in a more controlled mood. It’s definitely a good thing and it’s probably no coincidence this film is his only novel adaptation, something that helps keep his more random ideas in check.

As a boy, Neil was abused by his little league coach, leaving him rather confused about boundaries and what’s suitable behaviour. Now in his late teens (and grown into the form of Joseph Gordon-Levitt), Neil is defiantly gay and working as a hustler in the small Kansas town he grew up in. However he has dreams of making it in the big city, which will hopefully also allow him to forget what happened to him as a child. [Read more…]

House At The End Of The Street Trailer

March 30, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


It’s almost as if Jennifer Lawrence & Elizabeth Shue have never watched a thriller – you don’t go and live in a house near where murders took place years before, as it’s just a bad idea. However that’s just what they do in House At The End Of The Street, when newly divorced Sarah (Oscar-nominee Elisabeth Shue) and her daughter Elissa (Oscar-nominee Jennifer Lawrence) find the house of their dreams in a small, upscale, rural town, right next door to a place where a daughter killed her parents in their beds, and disappeared – leaving only a brother, Ryan (Max Thieriot), as the sole survivor. Against Sarah’s wishes, Elissa begins a relationship with the reclusive Ryan – and the closer they get, the deeper they’re all pulled into a mystery more dangerous than they ever imagined. The film should hit cinemas this autumn.
