I enjoyed Mervyn Peake’s Gormenghast books far more than J.R.R. Tolkien. Alas, the sublime texture and eccentricity of Peake's writing is completely missing in this BBC tv version, which aims for colourful silliness and encouraging the cast to go as over-the-top as possible

Dec 24, 2014Mass Insanity Outbreak
A modestly effective British variation on the mass insanity outbreak film. The film has one of the best out of the blue openings of any film one has seen in some time and is good at finding a kitchen sink realism, less so when it comes to explanations for what is happening
