Jack Nicholson is astonishing as the drifter trying to escape from his well-to-do background. He has created a new life of drinking, manual labour and womanising, but is called back to his father's deathbed, where a chance meeting means making a tough choice. Brilliantly moody and evocative drama. find out more...
FREAKS (1932)

Certification12 Our Rating

A very strange little number which was released, then immediately withdrawn in 1932 to remain banned for over fifty years. Still pretty disturbing today, despite the triumph of the various aesthetically-challenged "freaks" over their so-called normal tormenters, showing the revenge taken by a group of circus freaks on a beautiful trapeze artist and her strongman lover after they have tried to kill a midget for his fortune. find out more...

Absolutely amazing film from the master of confusion. One girl is amnesiac after a traffic accident she walked away from, the other is a too good to be true little Miss Perfect recently arrived in LA from Canada, and the two set out, against the background of a corrupt film industry, to discover the former's identity, and in doing so open a Pandora's Box.

Mona’s teenage life defines the word ‘crap’, not tragic, just without hope; her brother is the only family she has left and he’s found God in the same obsessively sociopathic way that he originally found booze, while a weekly hump in the back of a van with a married man actually constitutes fun rather than repetitive sexual abuse. Into this world wanders Tamsin, pretty, pretentious, spoilt but ignored and with a dangerous sense of mischief born of arrogance and naivety. An intense relationship b find out more...
