Craving (2023)

Very good, despite some flaws. Overall enjoyable

[8/10 · 7 February 2024]

If you forgave the soundtrack and the somewhat less than average level of acting from certain actors here. This is actually a good monster movie. Somehow it balances a lot of genres in the mix - drama, thriller, horror - J Horton makes a great movie here as it keeps you on the edge of your seat all the time with interesting and diverse characters, each all messed up with their own demons. Felissa Rose makes a great cameo. Surprised she got top billing in this when other actors had more screen time than her. Good make up effects and had an American Werewolf in London vibe. This is definitely worth a watch!

Doctor Prim (2021)

Please stop making films like this!

This is boring. Self-produced and shot "home-made style" films doesn't work. Especially if it's done over and over again. This doesn't add anything new or interesting - just the same tripe that everyone gets bored of watching. Lockdown films made by an unskilled crew is the 2nd worst thing to happen after the outbreak.

Four Lives (2022)

Really impressive

Based on a true story. This three-parter is excellent storytelling and perfectly executed. Stephen Merchant, Sheridan Smith, Jamie Winstone... all the cast are brilliant. I couldn't stop watching it.
