While not for the squeamish, or indeed for fans of Mary Whitehouse, this film is a cult classic – fast, silly, jaw-droppingly outrageous, and a true original, unlike anything else you will ever have seen. And impatient viewers will be delighted by the padding-free pace of 'The Story of Ricky', which never fails to cut (and slash) to the chase. Very highly recommended.
Science Fiction
Red Planet
Humourless, predictable and wholly unentertaining. If its a trip to Mars youre after, rent Total Recall instead. At least thats got Arnie in it.
Alien
Still one of the best movies to come out of either the horror or sci-fi genre this one gets the blood pumping.
The Horror Of Frankenstein
An occasionally funny, but largely uninteresting take on a story weve seen far too many times before.
Predator 2
Like the Predator itself, this is an ugly and unwelcome movie. A sequel to the original could have been a good idea, but unfortunately its a bit of a failure.
The Omega Man
Perhaps a serious production at the time, but nowadays only worth watching if youre in need of a good laugh. This ones hilariously bad.
