Outpost UK Certificate 18

Directed by Steve Barker

Feast UK Certificate 18

When a motley crew of strangers find themselves trapped in a isolated tavern, they must band together in a battle for survival against a family of flesh hungary creatures............................

Well this is a typical B Movie horror film....not strong on storyline, but strong on gore & horror.
The acting is good, special effects OK...But i was left wondering whether I was watching a black comedy or a horror film with less than scary moments.

Breathing Room UK Certificate 15

Directed by John Suits

Restrained by lethal collars, the players must utilize hints & tools from a box marked "pieces" to find both an exit & the reason for their abduction. One by one they are eliminated as their curfew begins & the lights go out..........................With each dead body comes another clue...

Reasonably acted, but to my mind not convincing as was Cube. The tension in the storyline is there for a while but i felt my attention wondering. The special effects are so so too.
So all in all one for a rainy day ..............

Starship Troopers 3 : Marauder UK Certificate 15

Directed by Ed Neumeier

Col. Jonny Rico is back to lead his team on a secret mission to rescue a small crew of Troopers stranded on the remote planet OM-1....As the stranded troopers fight to survive the harsh conditions, it begins to dawn on them that something on OM-1 is very, very wrong.................................

This is the third outing in the series and I have to say the worst....It is not a patch on the Original directed by Paul Verhoeven.
The acting, Storyline and special effects are so so at best...You just get the feeling we have been there before...Nothing outstandingly original, even the new Marauder suits fail to impress.

I can only recommend this film to die hard Sci-Fi enthusiasts.........

5/10

It is business as usual at the 6 corners Travel Shop in Death Valley until three fugitives have the fateful bad luck to run straight into a battle-weary sheriff & his deputy.

Terror lurks between the living & the dead...

Yep a nice horror movie,, good acting & great special effects...The storyline is gripping if predictable in places, nevertheless exciting stuff.

Species 4 The Awakening UK Certificate 15

But when he reveals the shocking truth......that she is half human, a clone from a hybrid of human & alien DNA, they must flee to Mexico to find the scientist who created her...but other hybrids have other ideas for her..............

So so horror...
