JACK BROOKS MONSTER SLAYER. Hugely enjoyable monster flick with a good sense of humour and entertaining performances. There are also three tracks by The Deadly Snakes with the mighty Greg Cartwright on the soundtrack. Recommended.
THE SQUAD. Blair Witch with soldiers and no real pay off.
CHERRY 2000. 80s made look at relationships and sex via a post apocalypse western wasteland and sex robots. This could have been great had not the direction been a bit slow and flat in places. That said, it's an enjoyable actioner with a female lead in Melanie Griffith who is more cute than tough.
ZOMBIES:WICKED LITTLE THINGS. This starts out brilliantly in full on creepy backwoods manner with hints at folklore and rural hexcraft. Sadly these things are never fully realised as the film descends in to standard zombie siege material. Also the child zombies, rather than looking spooky, look more like street urchin extras from a BBC Dickens production.
