DVD Review: Colin

Check out my review of this superb nil-budget zombie movie. It's well worth your time and effort. Don't let the £45 budget comment put you off if you're a horror movie fan. Certainly watch it if you're a Romero zombie film fan;

Attention Blake's 7 fans!

Ok, so to my followers, I apologise for no updates. There's been a flurry of activity on the Zombieland poster blog post, but who knows what you've been talking about lol!

I have to share the following with Blake's 7 fans. It's a link to the reliable but not particularly well known site The Geek Files at the Coventry Telegraph. I recommend it for fantasy news updates on the fly.

Anyway, I'd heard about the intention to continue or reimagine Blake's 7 some time ago. I couldn't raise much interest, especially after the awful audio play that turned a well loved show into a stark, tedious drama that eschewed the characterisation of it's source. However, today I spy the picture that The Geek Files has posted. I saw it and let out a naughty word.

By that I mean the picture looks exceptionally cool :o)

Have a look;

Movie News: Spiderhole

By accident, I came across this movie's details through a fellow Twitter user. The site:

http://www.spiderholethemovie.com

is running a competition to win a 32GB iPod Touch for visitors to choose 1 of 2 trailers, giving a good reason as to why the choice was made. I was sold on the first trailer; a moody, tense piece that gets across the horror very well. This adds to my frustration, that movies like this really need more exposure.

Check out the site and read the synopsis. I imagine this to be an exciting prospect for indie horror fans.

AIRWOLF Themes News!

A long time ago, now, I missed out on the release of the Airwolf Themes soundtrack by Mark J Cairns. I joined the forum, watched as ebay prices soar; had disappointments at not winning bids, or couldn't afford the bidding war. War it was too, with prices fetching up to $500. By chance, in 2005 I happened upon an ebay sale and finally got the 2-CD set for a very reasonable price that didn't involve a bank loan.

The soundtrack not only met my expectations it surpassed them. I admit to finding a couple of tracks on the old Napster but I never knew how much work had been put into recreating themes from the show. In truth Mark J Cairns improved upon Levay's theme. This was evident upon watching the show again on DVD.

This made me even more hungry for more. Finally, this trailer proves that more is on the way. It's a great tribute to the opening scenes of the Airwolf pilot. Have a look and wait for the EP to reach digital vendors soon.

Miami AdVice

Over the next couple of months, I will be off to Miami and South Florida. I'd be grateful for any tips on where to visit, especially Miami Vice related. :O)
