Shattered Glass (Blu-ray) by Noor Razzak (1st June 2025)
"Shattered Glass", directed by Billy Ray and based on true events, is a gripping and incisive drama that explores the ethical fragility of journalism through the downfall of Stephen Glass, a once-celebrated young writer for The New Republic. The film stars Hayden Christensen as Glass and features a strong supporting cast, including Peter Sarsgaard, Chloë Sevigny, and Steve Zahn. More than a simple exposé of a scandal, the film functions as a cautionary tale about truth, credibility, and the seductive allure of success. At the heart of "Shattered Glass" is Stephen Glass himself—a charming, insecure, and compulsively dishonest reporter who fabricated over half of the stories he published. Christensen, best known at the time for his controversial role as Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequels, delivers a surprisingly nuanced performance. He portrays Glass not as a moustache-twirling villain, but as a deeply troubled individual caught ... |

Vampire at Midnight by Eric Cotenas (29th May 2025)
Hollywood’s “Vampire Killer” has struck nine times and left his victims drained of blood. The media is playing up the vampire angle, and even some of the cops think there’s something creepy about the elusive killer. When Detective Al Childress (Village of the Giants' Robert Random) ends up with his throat slashed and his body drained of blood, colleague Roger Sutter (Flesh Gordon's Jason Williams) wants in on the case; however, his less than diplomatic means of dealing with the press put him in hot water with image-minded Captain Takato (Ted Hamaguchi). Meanwhile, “private session” clients of psychoanalyst/hypnotherapy guru Dr. Victor Radikoff (Lethal Weapon's Gustav Vintas) have been helping him dispose of his drained vic... |

Crash and Burn by Eric Cotenas (29th May 2025)
Unicom motorcycle courier Tyson (Drive Thru's Paul Ganus) delivers a shipment of Freon to an abandoned power station-turned-TV studio in the middle of the desert run by Lathan Hooks (Girls on the Road's Ralph Waite) and his 16-year-old granddaughter Arren (Amityville 1992: It's About Time's Megan Ward). Lathan is resentful of Unicom, who have influenced the government into banning the use of computers by civilians (who they blame for causing an economic collapse) as well as the use of Synthoid robots (because of something having to do with the Book of Revelations), but Arren insists that Tyson should stay because of the coming thermal storm which will raise the temperature considerably in the desert. Also inhabiting the studio are sleazy talk show host Winston Wickett (... |

Shutter by James-Masaki Ryan (27th May 2025)
"Shutter" (ชัตเตอร์ กดติดวิญญาณ) (2004) One late evening driving home from a party, Tun (played by Ananda Everingham) and his girlfriend Jane (played by Natthaweeranuch Thongmee) accidentally hit a woman with their car and slam into a billboard post.

Hardboiled: Three Pulp Thrillers by Alain Corneau - Limited Edition by Eric Cotenas (21st May 2025)
"The hardboiled genre of crime fiction evolved from the mystery crime novels of the early 20th century - closely associated with the US pulp magazines, these cynical and unsentimental stories of desperate criminals and social corruption were both influenced by and an influence on the golden era of film noir. "As their popularity waned in the US, the hardboiled genre remained hugely popular and relevant throughout the 1960s and 70s in France, thanks to the successful Série Noire imprint and a succession of new translations. In Alain Corneau's early films, he sought to continue the noir tradition in his native France, and was both directly and indirectly inspired by titans of hardboiled genre, including Kenneth Fearing and Jim Thompson. A heady combination of classic noir and 70s grit, these three darkly thrilling films are vastly underrated and important works in the canon of crime cinema."

In My Skin AKA Dans ma peau (Blu-ray 4K) by Noor Razzak (18th May 2025)
23 years ago I went to see "In My Skin" at a Film Festival, it was programmed as the midnight screening on a Friday night. The theatre was packed with festival goers in anticipation for a film many had only heard rumours about and a short synopsis description in the festival guide. As soon as the film started the air felt tense, you could hear a pin drop and what unfolded over the next hour and half was one of the most disturbing films I've ever seen, and I've seen "Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom" (1975), I've seen "Cannibal Holocaust" (1980), "Audition" (1999), "Irreversible" (2002), and I've seen "A Serbian Film" (2010), I have seen my fair share of challenging and difficult films, but "In My Skin" was not just made to shock and disgust, it was deeply physiologically complex and you feel a sense of dread and uneasiness throughout. An incredible feat to achieve, and the film's ending has lived rent free in my head ever since. No other film of its kind has ever had such a profound effect on me as this one, and it's been 23 years since I've seen it until this Severin 4K arrived on my doorstep. Marina de Van’s "In My Skin" is a raw, unsettling exploration of self-destruction,... |

Timecrimes by James-Masaki Ryan (17th May 2025)
"Timecrimes" ("Los cronocrímenes") (2007) While relaxing in his backyard, Héctor (played by Karra Elejalde) spots with his binoculars a young woman (played by Bárbara Goenaga) in the forest stripping. He loses sight of her, so he goes to have a closer look, only to find she is fully unclothed and unconscious. He is suddenly stabbed with scissors in the arm by a person whose head is covered entirely with bandage cloth, and is chased into an enclosed science facility in which a scientist (played by Nacho Vigalondo) offers to help him hide. The hiding place turns out to be a prototype time machine, sending him back about an hour prior to the harrowing events. It is hard for him to grasp the reality, but decides he must do something to make sure the events do not repeat in order to save the girl and to save himself from the masked man, even though the scientist warns him that changing anything could significantly alter the course of reality. "Timecrimes" was the feature directorial debut by Nacho Vigalondo. His... |
