» R.I.P. Patrick Swayze
Patrick Swayze has had a very prominent career, from 80’s classics including Dirty Dancing to his recent revival with acclaimed performances on US TV shows. We’ll miss the star of Donnie Darko, Ghost, Roadhouse but most importantly to me - Point Break. RIP sir.

» London Film Festival Line Up Announced - See The Hottest Films of 2009 and 2010 Before Anyone Else.
Great line-up this year, as well as having some exciting premieres on the line up, it also features some of the big yet still unreleased films from Cannes 2009. Look out for Enter The Void, Dogtooth, Precious and The White Ribbon from Cannes. World premieres include Wes Anderson’s new film, The Fantastic Mr. Fox…starring George Clooney, who stars in at least 3 of the major films of the festival (Men Who Stare at Goats and Up In The Air also). Looks like even the LFF aren’t immune to his charms!

» Frightfest 2009 Round Up
Frightfest was on top form this year, a celebration or trashy, gory and down right scary horror films in Leicester Square. The good people at Total Film did a round up of the weekend, although criminally fail to mention Marc Price’s Colin, the film made for a mere £45.00. Both of the Colin screenings sold out and it was the talk of the event…well that and John Landis shouting ‘Fuck You Warner Brothers’ during a Q&A….!

» Is Bad The New Good?
Interesting piece on Tommy Wiseau’s The Room, which is quickly becoming the most talked about cult film in London. The Prince Charles Cinema and the Barbican are both screening it in September, it’s a unique cinematic experience, and worth a watch - especially with a group of friends.
