You know things are bad when something makes Hallmark movies look good!
Join us on CITIZEN FRAME'S Christmas Month as we have some sort of existentialist crisis while trying to make sense of the absolute drivel that is the seasonal "comedy" (using the term in the loosest of manners!) DECK THE HALLS (2006), concerning a town and its profoundly moronic residents very possibly situated by the gates of Hell itself!
Enjoy!

When an obnoxious, self-centered family abandon their young son over Christmas, the house is soon invaded by dangerous criminals with malevolent intent, ultra-violent consequences ensuing, in a story that could be best described as THE STRANGERS meets GOODFELLAS . . .
That's right -- the much-loved family classic HOME ALONE (1990) is up next on CITIZEN FRAME's Christmas Month! Enjoy!

"PUNISH! NAUGHTY!"
Nothing screams Christmas quite like Santa going on the rampage with an axe -- especially on "garbage day"!
Christmas Month on CITIZEN FRAME continues with aplomb with our take on the newly-released remake of SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT -- but does it hold up to the original cult classic? Enjoy!

It's Christmas Month on CITIZEN FRAME!
And what better way to celebrate the season of giving than with an apocalyptic virus wiping out humanity and a violent criminal being sent on a mind-bending, time-travelling journey into insanity!
Join us as we discuss Terry Gilliam's 12 MONKEYS (1995) starring Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt -- and which is also set at Christmas before anyone asks! 😉 🐒 Enjoy!

Join us on the latest edition of CITIZEN FRAME as we head to the planet Mongo to hang out with Emperor Ming, Klytus, Princess Aura and Prince Barin and the lads, with a look at the campy, overtly sexualised cult classic from 1980, FLASH GORDON!

Enjoy!

"Wanna date?"
Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN; OR, THE MODERN PROMETHEUS is one of the most influential novels ever written, that has been adapted for the screen hundreds of times.
On the latest edition of CITIZEN FRAME, we take a detailed look at two of these adaptations, both iconic in their own ways -- the recently-released Guillermo del Toro version and the 1990 "sexploitation" sleazefest FRANKENHOOKER!
Ok! Iconic maybe the wron...
It's witchin' time -- and Mater Suspiriorum awaits!

Enjoy!

It wouldn't be Halloween Month and a ½ without a king movie.
This is a grim tale that has glimpses of Stand by Me and maybe even Lord of the Flies.
50 young men are chosen from a lottery to walk with a speed of 3 miles an hour or more until only one is standing.
Luke Skywalker doesn't use the force in this one but does have a military team he Captains watching their moves and has orders to shoot if the rules are broken.

The Grabber is back and this time he's making long distance calls to his old friend, Finn from Hell!!

With the help of some camp counselors and some creepy premonitions maybe they can do it.

Enjoy!

Black Sunday is a beloved goth horror film from Italian director, Mario Bava.

And..Barbara with those eyes and……💕

Enjoy!

We start Halloween month and half today with something of a disaster.
Italian giallo horror has always been a respected genre like spaghetti westerns.
From Bava to Argento and Fulci. Some work and some don't..this one doesn't.
Sorry 😔
Join Ciaran and Trevor as they argue on why this film is highly overrated and quite frankly terrible.
Enjoy!

Let's take a moment to pay some remembrance to a trio of some great players
Chi Chi, Angel and Ernie.
These loyal bastards are just a few that are taken by the terrible decisions that their drug lord and horrible crime boss , Tony Montana makes during this film 3 hours runtime.
He is bad at his job…right?

The death of Cyrus has caused some chaos for the Coney island gang, The Warriors. The Fureys, the Punks and the Rogues all want a piece of them and nothing will stop them. Thank god the Warriors have Swan leading the way!
Swan is played by (at the time a newcomer) Michael Beck. This is why we are doing this Michael Beck double feature with Xanadu.
God help us...
There are films that can be considered masterpieces and then there's this one…
No, it's not Stop of My Mom Will Shoot or Howard the Duck but if you guessed those films you would be close😁
The Shawshank Redemption is a film that has not only offered the best bromance ever but a film that deals with issues that are relatable today and tomorrow.
Hope. That's the key word.

Films often get lost in the shuffle of the summer blockbusters and even despite the lack of those this film still got lost.
Chuck is a full that deserves viewings. For those fans of Truman Show or Forest Gump this film also follows the life span of a man but told backwards.
Like other Kings works such as Stand By me and Shawshank this is a more grounded tale with a slight fantasy element.
Join Ciaran and Trevor as they chat about C...
