No pasarán.
If you aren't worried, you simply don't understand the situation.

North Sea Hijack 1980
"Both my parents died tragically in childbirth."
North Sea Hijack pretty much begins with Lloyds of London realising that oil rigs are a potential target for terrorists or criminals and that they bloody well ought to have a plan in place just in case.
So they bring in ffolkes, a man with his own private band of marines, who figures out how one would go about hijacking a rig and from there, how he would foil such a plan.
fflokes,…

2001: A Space Odyssey 1968
Happy birthday to 2001, yes, it's been 50 years since it went on general release. Just think on that for a moment, 50 years. Think about how far cinema had come in the half century before Kubrick made this film and how far it's come in that same amount of time since then and you realise, if you hadn't already, what an extraordinary achievement it is.
Now I'm sure there are people out there who like to decry the love…

Psychomania 1973
Hooptober the 10th | 42 | Phase 2 | 50 Years On #1
All these American bikers may look tough, but let me tell you, they are a bunch of Nancy Boys when compared to this lot. The same goes for the gangs in Mad Max and Stone, they may look scary, but they've got nothing on The Living Dead.
These colonials certainly talk a good game, and I'm sure they're all claim to be nihilistic, but when it comes…

Jason X 2001
Hooptober the 10th | 41 | Phase 2 | Friday the 13th (Because there must always be a Friday the 13th)
"What the hell is going on?"
"Jason fucking Vorhees, that's what the hell is going on."
445 years after an inevitably ill-advised attempt to study Jason, no doubt in an attempt to both weaponize and monetize his seeming indestructibility (both of which are well overdue), Jason is revived from cryogenic stasis on board a spaceship, having been rescued from…

Beware the Slenderman 2016
The story of how two pre-teens, both of whom appear to be delusional and one of whom has been diagnosed as schizophrenic attempted to murder a friend of theirs believing that they are acting under the instructions of Slenderman.
The thing that lies at the heart of their delusion and what makes it so difficult to break is exactly the same thing that lies at the heart of religious beliefs and that is the inability of anyone to disprove the…

Live and Let Die 1973
At last a realistic Bond villain, at least in terms of his aims and the method by which he's setting out to achieve it, flooding the US with a couple of tons of opium (it sounds much more charming than heroin) which will be given away for free thereby knocking out all the competition in one fell swoop. I'm not sure it would actually work out like that but it's not completely unrealistic and what's more the price…
