Sarah Cullen Nov 8, 2019 0
When we first encounter the eponymous Gwen (Eleanor Worthington-Cox) she is on the cusp of an early, un-looked for adulthood. While still playing childhood games with her little sister, Mari (Jodie Innes), in the beautiful but foreboding…

“You betcha, Iris.” | Drop Dead Gorgeous at 20

Sarah Cullen Jul 17, 2019 0
My first encounter with Michael Patrick Jann's Drop Dead Gorgeous was probably a couple of years after its release, on one of its televised broadcasts. I inadvertently came across the film at the very moment Tammy Curry (Brooke Elise…

Sarah Cullen Jul 6, 2019 0
After a sell-out run with positive reviews at the Dublin Fringe Festival last year, Beat. got a reprieve this May in Trinity College Dublin’s Samuel Beckett Theatre to packed crowds. Larney's exploration of toxic masculinity has now been…

The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down | Speed at 25

Sarah Cullen Jun 10, 2019 0
How times have changed. Nowadays, when we think of the stars of Jan de Bont's Speed we think about how Sandra Bullock hangs out in space and Keanu Reeves has murdered everyone. But, once upon a time, back in the long-forgotten year of 1994,…

Sarah Cullen Jun 2, 2019 0
Ah, summer camp. Don’t we all remember our first day, when the camp councillors somehow knew our name and focused solely on us despite all the other kids arriving? And the group leaders who taught us “black man handshakes” before everyone…

Great Until They’re Not | 8 TV Shows That Really Let Us Down

Sarah Cullen May 21, 2019 0

Film Review | Bird Box – The Happening But Good

Sarah Cullen Dec 29, 2018 0
Due to the premise of Susanne Bier’s post-apocalyptic drama Bird Box, a film in which everyone must remain blindfolded or risk insta-suicide, there is a nagging feeling that something is missing. After all, this is a film that is very much…

TV Review | Netflix’s The Haunting of Hill House – Stylish But Flawed

Sarah Cullen Oct 30, 2018 0
Netflix’s The Haunting of Hill House is a curious beast, in many ways. Following on from Shirley Jackson’s novel of the same name – which has itself had several previous adaptations – this is very much an “inspired by” rather than a “based…

An Uncomfortable Revisit | Lakeview Terrace Review at 10

Sarah Cullen Oct 12, 2018 0
Watching Neil LaBute’s suburban crime thriller ten years on, one can’t help but ask one crucial question: why is it called Terrace when the action clearly takes place on a cul-de-sac? (The answer is that Lakeview Terrace is a suburban…

Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid | Picnic at Hanging Rock 1975 vs 2018

Sarah Cullen Sep 15, 2018 0
