Read more: The Not Quite #7: Dead Man’s Shoes (2004)“God will forgive them. He’ll forgive them and allow them into heaven. I can’t live with that.” So says our heartbroken, self-loathing main man in an ominous voiceover at the start of this revenger. And, of course, he finds ‘them’ and does a wee bit more than issue a stern telling off. Sounds like formulaic…

Read more: Abusive Flesh Peddlers: Part OneI’ve got a theory that a fair few women fantasize about being hookers. Like most of my theories, it’s probably shite, but I’ve always been fond of airing my ignorance. I really should get a Twitter account.

I’ve never bothered to watch this thing until tonight, and I’m glad I did. I didn’t realize that the great John Vernon was in this movie, reason enough to give this thing a spin…

Read more: HodgespodgeGet Carter remains a fave, a bleak foray into porn, familial ties, corruption, contract killers, revenge and pollution all set in a decaying city. Often hailed as one of the greatest British gangster movies, it’s the viewing equivalent of a kick in the solar plexus from a dirty, steel toe-capped boot. Amazingly, it was assembled…

Read more: What should the player do if the croupier makes a mistake?Many guests of gambling establishments, meeting with the croupier’s mistakes, refuse to believe that this is the same person as they are.
