Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11hInsect night #2 - Mimic I remember this not being great back in the day but by today's standards it's an entertaining enough creature feature. It benefits greatly from having a decent cast, great sets and some semi-ok practical effects. 010

Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 12hI think there's a genuine question regarding what is actually on a disc. I'm fed up of buying discs that essentially require you to download hours and hours of game to play it. I want a game on a disc that I can put in a machine and play. Any downloads would be extras & oprional. 100
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 12hInsect night #1 Phase IV Weird avant-garde British sci-fi film which is part educational treatise and part invasion movie. Strangely compelling and oddly soporific. I for one welcome our new ant overlords. 010
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 13hand why has it got so much rubbish on it? New horror films I've never heard of. Very few decent films. Who actually pays for this? 100
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 14hI signed up to Paramount Plus to watch the Friday 13th films and they don't even have III. No one does. What kind of nonsense is this? 100
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 12/10/2026It's amazing how many expensive TV shows are being made for next to no one to watch. Every time I take on a 7 day trial or a month's membership I'm shocked to find something quite flashy which I've never heard of before. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 12/10/2026This always impresses me with its restraint. So tempting to speed things up but instead gradually and subtly builds up tension before pressing the starter gun. An exercise in quiet terror. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 12/10/2026After the flare and ingenuity of the original this is a huge comedown. The direction and cinematography, is lazy, boring and bordering on shoddy. The story is almost completely absent. The tension non-existent. The acting poor. The kills are almost all boring. Such a waste. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 12/10/2026They need to do something about renting digital films. Fine if you're a family but just another singles tax. I'd hardly call it a deal to pay twice as much as I'd pay at the cinema to see a reduced price film! It's no wonder so many pirate films. 010
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11/10/2026So, in a year's time you're telling me a bog standard room in a B&B will cost £120 per night. No breakfast. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Camp Miasma, aka we got free use of a Counting Crows song and we'll use every second. I'm sure it makes a great essay, but it's a bad horror film. The bizarre soundtrack & perfunctory attempts to period it were weird as well. Jeez. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Do Americans spend 2 hours per day in the gym? How on earth do you eat so much food and not all be huge? Every time I watch people eating meals I wonder how anyone gets past 40. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11/10/2026It looked like a bad version of all those other films mixed together. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Every time I watch this I'm impressed with something else. The fantastic use of colours. Of light and dark. The clever choices of shots. The brilliant location. The rain. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I've not seen a review for either but I did watch the trailers and presumed the worst. 110
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Putting famous people in an exorcist film does not make it good. I know young people struggle with the concept of criticism. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Can we just establish that if you're gushing over shit to look good then you're dead to me. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I actually meant the Nostradamus film. I want to see that 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Every time I watch Demons I really want to watch the film in the cinema. 110

Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I assumed this was just a badly worded title. It is not. 110
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I'm not sure who thought anyone needed a Carrie TV series? Hardly a complex epic story to tell. 020
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I forget how good an actual film this is. All the time with the insects and Pleasence is really fascinating, It's refreshing to see the focus on the weird stuff and not the boring school bullying you usually get. Jennifer Connolly is brilliant as well, punching well above her age. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Has lots of really nice elements. A curious offbeat and downbeat take on the assassin, riffing on the likes of Melville. Starts off strong but just doesn't really amount to much in the end. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 06/10/2026A fascinating twisting and turning plot, some impressive backdrops and interiors. Maybe a little lacklustre on the actual killing front, but an entertaining giallo nonetheless. 020
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I really enjoyed the first half of this and Neill is always extremely watchable. It does lose focus a fair bit in the second half and I struggled to give it my full attention. I would have liked to have seen more intrigue. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I'm working on the basis that this show is made up. Unless it's a SAW type vibe and then it better not be made up. 010
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Very strange take on an age-old formula. There are all the right ingredients but I found myself zoning out. Not exciting enough to ignore the substance but not enough substance to keep it going through the multiple quieter periods. 000

Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Such a wonderful blend of colours, music and visionary cinematography. I love watching David Hemmings, he's just such a shaggy dog English gent. An impressive supporting cast and a director at the height of his powers. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I'd never heard of this before but it's a pretty decent horror/sci-fi bodysnatchers yarn, made by a committed central performance from James Farentino. Lots to love here and much smalltown 'charm'. 2181

Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 03/10/2026It's kind of like a White Zombie music video made into a film. A bit odd and nasty. Very flashy but no actual story or plot. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Rob Zombie's sick and twisted spankbank directorial debut looks good, but that's about it. He likes lots of films, but doesn't like writing plots or dialogue. Paper thin no-music video. 100
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Some nice effects and always good to have a creepy old house. It doesn't really capitalise on the premise though and the end is just a bit of a cop-out. The fact I've seen this before and didn't realise says it all really! 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The last of the three mothers trilogy is pretty bad. Asia Argento attempts to act are disastrous. There are some nice bits and pieces but in the end it's a really pedestrian Argento film which feels like a poor copy. 100
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Asia Argento's performance in this rivals Tara Reid in Alone in the Dark. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026If there's not a band called Asia Argento's fake tears, then why not? Watching The Mother of Tears. 100
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026When you have grandkids you'll look back to these days as halcyon times! Only getting worse. At least some of the OG Youtubers have some talent and aren't just flogging stuff. 000
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I find the obsession kids have with Youtuber really odd. Slightly better than Influencers, but it's essentially the same thing. 110
Robbie @robbiemarka.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Fascinating and decidedly unhinged Italian horror which takes a series of wild swings. I would love to understand the thought process behind some of the scenes! 010
