Release some gas, young fellow, at once!

Two films using the Amelie colour filter

Somebody shaved the skin right off that boy

A George Mackay double bill

Never trust isolated country houses

Argle fargle blargle wargle

Locking kids in basements

Two horrors with an indigenous perspective

It's "boogeyperson"!

Existential horror in an endless subway

Be careful what you wish for...

Bring in the logic probe!

Dan returns to explore The Hidden (1987), a sci-fi horror directed with slick B-movie flair by Nightmare on Elm Street 2 veteran Jack Sholder! An alien parasite with a love of fast cars and automatic weapons is jumping from body to body in the neon-lit streets of L.A., pursued by Kyle MacLachlan's eerily blank FBI agent. Flashdance love interest Michael Nouri plays the increasingly confused detective trying to make sense of exploding boomboxes, possessed bank robbers, and his new partner's alarming method of taking alka seltzer. With a synth-heavy score, gory mayhem, and Reagan-era cynicism oozing through every scene, should The Hidden be unhidden to the world? Or was it hidden for a reason?

They're not exotic dancers, they're just hot
