Remember the Titans (2000) - Better left forgotten among other we ended racism movies.

Dark Star (1974) - Even student filmmaker John Carpenter has a lot of his own class.

A ★★★½ review of Dark Star (1974)
John Carpenter’s directorial debut is an incredibly low budget film cowritten by Dan O’Bannon and there’s a sequence that’s basically Alien but with Rover from The Prisoner with bumps and arms.  Dark ...

Halloween: Sea Smoke and Other Stories: Not a bad story in the lot. Highlighting different writers and directors is a particular strength of the set. Each episode plays on a different type of horror story which is particularly nice and avoids the issues of 1 hour Doctor Who stories because of how

horror can work better in smaller doses. This set also does the impossible: it makes me love a Kate Stewart led UNIT story (it’s one of Big Finish’s best stories of the year). I really hope that this becomes an annual tradition because of how flexible it is.
