The Director Who Killed His Own Movie: Lawrence Turman and the Most Honest Press Tour of 1983
Hollywood runs on illusion. Directors sell confidence. Producers sell certainty. Even bad movies are promoted like misunderstood masterpieces waiting for their audience to catch up.

Three years ago, I sat down to watch Avatar: The Way of Water with one burning question: could James Cameron possibly justify a sequel after a 13-year wait? Three hours and twelve minutes later, the answer was unmistakable—yes, he absolutely could.

Book Review: "The Plague Stones" by James Brogden
Cheap books on my phone are great and this one was found after much sleuthing. The Plague Stones seems to be described as a great mixture between old and new, a folk horror (which as you know, is right up my street) and a descriptive story that moves between people and times. There's a lot of atmosphere in this book and so, I was completely immersed from start to finish. If you, like me, love the subgenre of folk horror then you'll probably be in for a right treat if you were to pick this book up. I know people who have this on audiobook and apparently it's free over there if you'd rather listen to it. But horror isn't just for Halloween and I want you to remember that...

The Ragged-Trousered Philanthropists by Robert Tressell
The Ragged-Trousered Philanthropists was written by Robert Noonan under the pen name Robert Tressell and was first published posthumously in 1914. It is a great work of socialist literature and covers the economic hardships faced by the working class in early 20th century Britain. The author himself, born in 1870, was part of the working class. His life was marked by poverty and political activism in which he struggled to gain recognition as a writer (which was still seen as a middle class sport at this time). He became a house painter and a labourer and thus, he draws on these experiences in his novel. He sought to expose those responsible for the dehumanisation of the working class through his narrative, looking at the way these people would normally treat the poorer folk and why therefore, the lives of these lower classes was so incredibly horrid.

Good Fortune Movie Review
Some films tell stories of triumph, while others explore the fragile line between success and failure. Good Fortune belongs to the latter category. On the surface, it appears to be a tale about luck—about doors opening, opportunities arising, and moments that change everything. But beneath that exterior, the film delves into human ambition, the unpredictability of life, and the personal costs of chasing what we think will bring happiness.

Violent Ends — When Survival Becomes More Important
Most revenge thrillers follow a familiar path. A wrong is committed, justice fails, and violence becomes the language of resolution. Violent Ends begins in that territory, but it doesn’t stay there. Instead of glorifying retaliation, the film dismantles it, asking uncomfortable questions about survival, choice, and what remains of a person after violence has done its work.

Wake Up Dead Man Review
When Rian Johnson announced Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, fans immediately knew one thing: this would not be just another cozy whodunit. The title alone signals a tonal shift, hinting at something darker, heavier, and more emotionally charged than its predecessors, Knives Out (2019) and Glass Onion (2022). As the third entry in the wildly successful franchise, Wake Up Dead Man promises to push the boundaries of the modern mystery genre while once again centering on Daniel Craig’s unforgettable detective, Benoit Blanc.
