A stunning visual account of man's struggle for survival in the 21st Century, a time when replicant life forms are beginning to surpass humans not just in intelligence but emotions, raising questions about our concepts of self. A post-modern sci-fi classic, THE great Hollywood movie of the '80s, the last great pre-computer film done with smoke-and-mirrors SFX and the definitive cult arthouse Sci-Fi film. This is the originally released version with no unicorns in a dream, a voiceover to keep y

COFFEE AND CIGARETTES (2003)
Certification15 Our Rating
More famous faces than you can shake a stick at get together over a fag and a mug of coffee, to discuss the many joys of, well… a fine cupper and a good drag. Jim Jarmusch started filming these short comic vignettes over ten years ago and has created a deliciously off kilter observation of life's little pleasures. Worth watching for Iggy Pop and Tom Waits chat alone, and I say this regardless of my own hopeless weakness for the rolled leaf and the dark bean.

DELIVERANCE (1972)
Certification18 Our Rating
One of the best suspense thrillers ever made - often imitated and rarely bettered. It's of the intrepid city adventurers up against in-bred redneck natives mould and the rednecks have the natural advantage, being both horribly cruel and at home in the woods. For anyone who enjoyed "Southern Comfort".

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A very strange little number which was released, then immediately withdrawn in 1932 to remain banned for over fifty years.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.

RUMBLE FISH (1983)
Certification18 Our Rating
A visually brilliant film about teenage gangs in America's urban wasteland. The leader of a small dying gang, Rusty James, lives in the shadow of the memory of his absent, older brother - The Motorcycle Boy. His mother has left, his father drinks, school has no meaning for him and his relationships are shallow. One of Coppola's two adaptations of S E Hinton novels, 'The Outsiders' being the other. A great performance from Dillon and an awesome soundtrack.

THE BREAKFAST CLUB (1985)
Certification15 Our Rating
Five very different kids arrive at high school one Saturday morning to do a nine hour detention during which time they must write an essay titled "Who do I think I am?". At first, they argue and hate each other, but after smoking some marijuana, they pour their hearts out to each other, and tell about their fears, secrets, and their deepest emotions, and problems. An iconic 80s movie and the first of a trilogy preceding 'Sixteen Candles' and 'Pretty In Pink'.
