Kissing Darkness (DVD Review)

March 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Sean Paul Lockkart, Ronnie Kroell, Kyle Blitch
Director: James Townsend
Running Time: 87 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: March 9th 2015 (UK)

Vampires have always been a little bit gay, but Kissing Darkness wants to take that further with a film that comes across as if Twilight had been made in the style of a gay porn movie – except without the hardcore sex.

A group of gay friends (plus a token straight guy) head off for a weekend at a remote cabin. However their fun time isn’t just spoiled by tensions amongst them, but by a strange spirit they awaken after messing with a Ouija board. The ‘witch’ seems to have a problem with the gays, and works her way through the group, turning them into bloodthirsty vampires who do her bidding. [Read more…]

The Imitation Game (Blu-ray Review)

March 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, Charles Dance
Director: Morten Tyldum
Running Time: 114 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: March 9th 2015 (UK)

Despite eight Oscar nominations The Imitation Game only walked away with one award, Best Adapted Screenplay. To be honest that wasn’t a shock, as quite a few Oscar watchers had thought it would get nothing. And there are also some, including myself, wondering if the one Academy Award it did win was the right one.

The movie tells the story of Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch), a socially awkward, somewhat irascible mathematics prodigy who, after the Second World War breaks out, applies to the government to help break the infamous Enigma code, something many believe is impossible. However he doesn’t want to continue with the traditional method of codebreaking, where smart men use pens, paper and just their brains, as he has an idea to use a machine to break down and then check the billions of possible combinations until it finds the right one. If he can do it, it will allow the Allies to read the German military’s secret communications and possibly win the war. [Read more…]

Continuum (DVD Review)

March 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Haley Joel Osment, Gillian Anderson, Victor Garber, Rufus Sewell
Director: Richiw Mehta
Running Time: 89 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: March 9th 2015 (UK)

You have to admire sci-fi that really wants to be intelligent, even if it’s not actually as smart as it thinks it is. That’s certainly true of Continuum (known as I’ll Follow Your Down in the US), which wants to bring together time-travel, wormholes and quantum theory to create a tale that considers the idea of what it would mean to change your past so that your present never happened. However it’s not really that smart and seems to ignore many of the most important implications of what it’s talking about.

Gabe (Rufus Sewell) heads off on a business trip but never returns, leaving his wife (Gillian Anderson) and young son Errol with no clues as to what happened to him – he never checked out of his hotel and has completely disappeared. 12 years later his wife still hasn’t gotten over what happened, while the massively intelligent Errol (now grown up to be Haley Joel Osment) is trying to make his way in the world as a young adult.
