Android Apocalypse (2006)
Dec 14, 2008Human-Android Relations
A variation on The Defiant Ones with a human and an android chained together but this fails to find anything to say either about androids or prejudice

Chained (2012)
Jun 30, 2013Serial Killer and His Young Companion
Jennifer Lynch, daughter of David, makes an extraordinary work about the relationship between a serial killer and his young male companion. A film that eschews big dramatics with startling effect. Vincent D'Onofrio gives one of his best performances
Vampire Dog (2012)
Apr 26, 2013Children's Film/Cute Vampire Dog
This may quite possibly be the worst vampire film ever made – a children's film about a boy and a cute vampire dog.

Another WolfCop (2017)
Jul 27, 2020Werewolf Cop/Horror Comedy
WolfCop found an appeal with its amusing title premise. Here the principal talents involved have reunited for a sequel, although the feeling is more that they have done so solely because the first film was a success
Supergrid (2018)
Apr 7, 2022Socially Collapsed Future Action
Lowell Dean, director of WolfCop, makes what feels like a revival of the low-budget Mad Max film - an action film set in a socially collapsed future
