Stoker (2013)
Rating: ★★★½
Mar 13, 2013Sinisterly Charming Uncle
The English-language debut from South Korea's Park Chan-wook is a supremely controlled film, more like a period arthouse film than drenched in the buckets of gore we expect of Park … Essentially a reworking of Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt, a film that takes place all in smouldering tensions

Rating: ★★★½
Jan 17, 2015Talking Bear
From the awful slapstick-heavy trailer, the prospects for this seem dismal – less Paddington Bear than a reprise of the live-action Yogi Bear. The finished result confounds expectation and the story of a small unassuming bear at large in the world comes full of considerable charm

Dec 31, 2017Curse Placed on a Man's Family
Yorgos Lanthimos specialises in a bizarrely deadpan black humour. This works rather well as he make a horror film in which surgeon Colin Farrell finds a strange malady has afflicted his family unless he kills one of them in sacrifice

How to Talk to Girls at Parties (2017)
Rating: ★★
Sep 28, 2018Romance with an Alien Visitor
Though the title seems more suitable to a book of pick-up lines, this is about a romance with an alien visitor set during the punk era. John Cameron Mitchell adapts a Neil Gaiman story but seems to have forgotten the comedy elements
