The Butterfly Effect

This ingenious fable of time-travel, chaos theory and self-sacrifice is this year's 'Donnie Darko'.

Se7en

‘Se7en’ might be a really stupid way to write the title, but when a film’s this good nobody seems to care. Great and gruesome at the same time.

Scream

Aaaaaarrrrgggghhhh!!! (That’s supposed to represent a scream, in case you’re wondering.)

Kill Bill: Vol. 2

Not quite as good as 'Volume 1', but still, rarely is revenge served this cool, sweet and satisfying.

Scream 2

A hatchet job in more ways than one.

Money Train

All aboard! Next stop, Mediocrity.

Le Cercle rouge

Top-notch film noir with a bleak existential edge, executed with as much clinical precision as the crime it portrays.

Anazapta

An enjoyable enough romp in the mediæval muck, with a head-scratching conclusion.

Scream 3

When the only thing remotely scary about a so-called horror movie turns out to be Courteney Cox’s wig, you know it’s been a long two hours.

Secret Window

Far-fetched stuff, and you may well see the twist coming a mile off – but it’s a guilty pleasure.
