Total Recall 30th anniversary

30 years ago this month. the Blade Runner for my generation. the feeling when you're introduced to sci-fi and dystopia is indescribable. although the 2012 version was a cool update, it never reached its heights.

Requiem for a Dream 20th anniversary

20 years ago this month. usually i recommend films - this i'll say proceed with caution. an utterly miserable and bleak film, with Aronofsky at the top of his game.

The Shining 40th anniversary

40 years ago this month. one of my favourite films from an all-time top-3 director. to classify it as horror would be an injustice. i rarely watch a film twice, even my favourites, but i had to for this.

You always say we should never stop being curious, to always open any curiosity door we find. Why are you keeping this curiosity door locked?

"If you hold back anything, I'll kill you. If you bend the truth or I think you're bending the truth, I'll kill you. If you forget anything, I'll kill you. In fact, you're gonna have to work very hard to stay alive. Now, do you understand everything I've just said? Because if you don't, I'll kill you."
