INTERVIEW – PARRY SHEN talks Hatchet 2

Published on: 20th January, 2010

I’ve never really kept my obsession with slashers a secret. And whilst the genre seems as popular as ever these days (mainly thanks to the various remakes that have taken over the box office recently), most of them seem to be generic and aiming towards a watered-down, PC crowd. Thankfully, Adam Green’s sleep hit Hatchet [...]

Published on: 19th January, 2010

Friday the 13th fans have been a little tough on A New Beginning over the years, due to its sleazy atmosphere and ‘twist’ ending.

INTERVIEW – SARAH NICKLIN talks Nun of That

Published on: 4th January, 2010

Over the last couple of years I’ve become more and more obsessed with 1970s exploitation cinema, so with the arrival of the likes of Grindhouse filmmakers too are looking back to the old days of sleaze, violence and excess.
