THE DOOM BUSTERS - Keep calm and slaughter aliens. A small group of Home Guard soldiers soon find themselves in the thick of a different kind of action as a bloodthirsty alien turns a small village into a hunting ground. David Gelmini reviews this melding of British comedy, war pic and sci-fi that recently received its world premiere at Glasgow FrightFest.
THE LAST SACRIFICE
THE LAST SACRIFICE - Rupert Russel’s documentary takes a look at the 1945 murder of Charles Walton, the last suspected ritual murder in the UK and its influence not only on folk horror but British culture itself. Iain MacLeod reviews this entertaining and chilling documentary that received its UK premiere at this year's Glasgow FrightFest.
