It’s been a while since I watched a horror film that felt genuinely innovative – but Unfriended certainly achieves that. Over the past decade or so the market has been flooded with Blair Witch Project-style “found footage” or Saw-like “horror porn” – and both are wearing a little thin. With that in mind, Levan “Leo” Gabriadze’s Unfriended is something of ...

One of the volunteer team behind a successful martial arts group in Holbeach hasn’t been able to use her kitchen table in years. It’s covered in the paperwork that goes with Gemma Holland’s administrative role with Storm UK – and she wouldn’t have it any other way. “I get more out of this than I do anything else,” she said. ...

I don’t think I’ve looked forward to a film as much as Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron in quite some time. I’m fully invested in Marvel’s incredible cinematic universe (MCU) – and after last year’s game-changing Captain America sequel, Age of Ultron seems to have been teasing me for years, rather than a matter of months. Does it deliver? Hell ...

As soon as I saw its chilling trailer, I was drawn to Child 44 by a pretty impressive cast – led by the always terrific Tom Hardy. As it turns out, that cast – despite a few dodgy attempts at Russian accents across the board – are indeed the main redeeming factor of a film that, sadly, never really got ...

Not many of us have ever had a bat zip over our head, seen the ghostly figure of a barn owl quartering the fields or appreciated the variety of moths that take to the air after dark.
