The first one hasn’t even been shot yet- Hell, it’s still being cast- but reaction to the screenplay has led to talks about a possible sequel already. Gotta say, I love this title, and this poster.
Just hope everyone likes this right load of Bastards as much as we do.

Some lovely (official) photos from our time at the Sykehouse Film Festival the other week where LAURA LIVING BACKWARDS was honoured with wins and honourable mentions. It was a lovely way to end its festival run and to see Laura herself Sarah Feltham be awarded for her brilliant performance.

The connection between Oasis and Sabbath are that they are both proper working class bands that came from nowhere and changed everything. And I love them both.

Apropos of nothing, I’ve always absolutely loved this poster. And the film. But then, it is Sam Raimi, so of course I love it.

Came across these cool DAWN OF THE DEAD shots of my man George Romero. Never seen them before. Just looking at these makes me want to go make another film.
