Bonus reviews include ‘The Moor’, a Yorkshire-set folk horror about a father searching for his long-missing son; ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’, the 1974 horror classic, which has been restored in 4K, and sees a group of friends run out gas only to find themselves tormented and picked off one by one by a chainsaw-wielding killer (aka Leatherface) and his psychopathic family; and ‘Star Trek III: The Search for Spock’, another restoration, which sees Admiral Kirk, following the death of Spock, steal the decommissioned USS Enterprise to return Spock’s body to his home-world, facing down an army of hostile Klingons in the process.
This week’s One Frame Back is films about the horror of being a teenage girl to coincide with the release of ‘Inside Out 2’.
Mark and Simon help us decide what to watch, and what to avoid, this weekend.
Plus, they answer a few of your Questions (film-related) and Schmestions (non-film related), from the things they are sick of people trying to convince them is great to what Mark hates about ‘The Exorcist’ (gasp!)
