ABOVE THE KNEE: The exploration of Body Integrity Dysphoria is fascinating and original, but the characters didn’t feel believable enough to carry the weight of the story.

Joseph Millson delivers a moving and tender directorial debut with SIGNS OF LIFE, pairing quiet grief with awkward humour in a deeply human story. Sarah-Jane Potts gives such a quietly powerful performance.

ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS (1979) – Fulci’s zombie epic is packed with unforgettable gore.

We had a great time watching this cult classic, even if the acting and writing haven't aged as well as the makeup.
