The Stand (1994) Review

Who knew the apocalypse could be this dull?

Of all the Stephen King novels I have read, The Stand occupies a very special place.

The Tommyknockers (1993) Review

Stephen King's alien addiction novel needed this adaptation like it needed a metal plate in its head.

True and too faithful adaptations bring their own problems.

I’ve seen both copies and I agree the extended version is better but I adored the novel to the point where I’m not sure any adaptation could really do it justice in my eyes. One of the biggest issues for me is the shop in the movie never looks right to me!

The Dark Half (1993) Review

The real Captain Sparrow.

There’s something divided about The Dark Half, and not just in its plot.

And yet ironically most of Craig’s films were about him wanting to retire.

I made the “mistake” of watching the tail end of a #StarTrekDeepSpaceNine season five episode a few days ago and, well, long story short I’ve just finished watching #WhatYouLeaveBehind. Now tempted to start from scratch with #Emissary.

Tron: Ares (2025) Review

Tron: Ares proves that not even the grid is immune from enshittification.

The first thing you notice about Tron: Ares is that it’s loud.
