Starring: Nathaniel Moreau, Margot Finley, Bradley Machry and Jacelyn Holmes Oh… goodness. I love Power Pack. The comic, at least. So I had very, very high hopes for the series’ live-action TV pilot – which may have been a mistake. After all, I knew no series ever came of it, so it can’t have been [...]

I saw Dredd a couple of weeks ago. I am typically not a fan of UK comics, with the exception of the 1990s Marvel UK stuff and the 1980s Death’s Head, Transformers and Dragon’s Claws books by Simon Furman, but I saw this after hearing the eponymous character’s actor talking about how, in a costume like that of Judge Dredd, you [...]

Earlier today, I hopped onto Google Play to look into a new game for my mobile phone and saw, on the main page, that Marvel Comics is now selling TPBs through Google Books. They were quite well-priced, and when I looked at the samples I was impressed with the product quality. Now, I own a heck [...]

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET Directed by: Wes Craven Written by: Wes Craven Release date: November 9th, 1984 Rating: 3.5 / 5 Ah, Johnny Depp. I don’t like Johnny Depp. Tim Burton’s films are a horrendous load of wank, and the Pirates of the Caribbean films are laughable. Sadly, Johnny Depp has let his popularity from these films [...]

VIRUS Directed by: Fukasuku Kinji Written by: Takada Kouji & Gregory Knapp Release date: June 26th, 1980 Rating: 4.9 / 5 Note: This review is for the 108-minute “International Version” of the film, not the full-length Japanese cut. Both versions are available from the Internet Archive, as public domain films. Wow. There’s something about Japanese [...]
