strip poker (1968)

AKA The Big Switch. "Take your shirt off!"
John Carter (Sebastian Breaks) is a playboy implicated in the murder of a blonde he had picked up on a night out. He is subsequently pressured by gangland boss Mendez (Derek Aylward) to go to Brighton, to do a job for him...
Marvel at how the director can crowbar female nudity into the most mundane of scenario's in this uninteresting would be thriller.

troll 2 (2025)

"Have you found something else?"
Nora Tidemann (Ine Marie Wilmann) is again recruited to help out Andreas Isaksen (Kim Falck) when he reveals that the Govt has found another Troll. This time he is hibernating, but what will happen if he wakes up?
More of the same, with a similar plot of the team puzzling out how to stop a rampaging troll. If you were entertained by the first film, then you should be happy enough with this new installment.

troll (2022)

"You do know that there's some truth to every fairytale."
Norwegan road builders are tunneling through a mountain range when they disturb an ancient creature. Could it be in fact a troll? Paleontologist Nora Tidemann (Ine Marie Wilmann) is brought in to give her assessment and soon realises that maybe the storybooks were true!
Yes we've seen this all before, and its not a patch on Troll Hunters, but it is a fun watch. So cut the carping and just let it entertain you.

the stone tape (1972)

"What I want for Christmas is for you to go away."
An audio research team convenes in a Victorian house in an attempt to find a new recording format. But things start to go off tack when Jill Greeley (Jane Asher) witnesses a ghost and the director Peter Brock (Michael Bryant) decides to record the apparition but also to exorcise it...
A made for TV horror by Nigel Kneale that came up with some genuine scares

the painted bird (2019)

AKA Nabarvené ptáce
"You're not from here are you?"
A young boy Joska (Petr Kotlár) suffers many trauma's as he travels across an indeterminate Slavic country during its occupation by Germany.
Based on the novel by Václav Marhoul this is an extremely dark tale making it a compelling but difficult watch.

naked as nature intended (1961)

"Nobody who looked like that ever gave me a lump of sugar."
Three young women, including Pamela Green tour the delights of South-West England and are introduced into naturism.
What was an early foray into nudie cuties by Markx, is viewed today as more of a delightful tourist film. Due to it being made in colour and restricting the nudism to the last few minutes of the film. Surely this was the basis of the spoof nudism film shown in Carry on Camping?

klokkenluider (2022)

"Don't tell him you told me!"
Ewan, a government whistleblower, and Silke, his Flemish wife are hidding out in a rural rental house waiting for a journalist (Olivia Coleman) to arrive so they can tell their story. Meanwhile they are joined by two protection officers, and cannot help but argue and reveal secrets as the officers also bicker.
Tightly driven talky.
