The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

As usual for the month of October the Lambcast will be mostly focusing on the genre of horror, which means the Movie of the Month poll is a horror movie special. And once again it seems the winner may have gotten a little creative with their campaigning as this month’s winner received far more votes than perhaps anyone was expecting, so for October we’ll be...

Hello everyone. It’s once again time to introduce the director that will be covered for the month in Director’s Chair and, considering that it’s Halloween this month, I can think of no better person to cover for this month than John Carpenter. Being involved in numerous aspects of the film industry, not...

The Jay-free streak continues with a topic he’d be pretty terrible at discussing anyway, westerns! But fear not, Nick Rehak is on hand to pop his Lambcast-hosting cherry, and he does a great job with it.

Nick, along with guests Kristen Lopez, DJ Valentine, Will Slater and newcomer Howard Casner are all competing to pick the best “team” of western movies, a genre that’s broad enough to induce some pretty...

Hello everyone, once again it’s time to reveal your thoughts on the directors I’ve chosen for this month. This month, I decided to do a triple selection of directors, all involved in stop motion, to celebrate the release of Kubo and the Two Strings, those directors all representing different styles of stop motion, the directors being Nick Park, Henry Selick and Jan Svankmajer. Didn’t get many responses for this month but I...

Only two movies for you this week, so I’m using this opportunity to catch up on some smaller releases from earlier in the year, which didn’t have enough reviews at the time, but do now. So instead of just Morgan and The Light Between Oceans, here’s the LAMB community’s take on eleven 2016 releases, enjoy!:

Hunt for the Wilderpeople
LAMB Average: 4.25 (12 sites)

Just because Jay is away, doesn’t mean the show can’t go on! And this week it’s time for the latest Movie of the Month, looking at the great Cool Hand Luke!

Kristen Lopez takes her first turn in the hosting chair, and is joined by Richard Kirkham, Jess Manzo, Jeanette Ward and the movie’s champion Joe Guiliano to discuss whether Cool Hand Luke truly is a “guy’s movie”,...

It’s safe to say that the giant summer movie season is well and truly finished for another year, and I don’t know about you but I’m fairly relieved, given how disappointing many of those glossy tent-poles turned out to be. Now we’re in the lull of lower expectations before autumn’s awards-hungry scramble begins, which means some of this week’s releases – Mechanic: Resurrection and Hands...

Hello everyone, just a quick reminder that I am still looking for pieces in this month’s stop motion centred Director’s Chair on the films of Nick Park, Henry Selick and Jan Svankmejer. For those of you who need a reminder of the films that you can cover, go back to the original post here. I look forward to...

For September we are heading back to the early days of cinema where during a brief period between the introduction of the first sound pictures in 1929 to the enforcement of the “Motion Picture Production Code” in 1934 there existed an era known as Pre-Code Hollywood. A wild time for cinema as films were produced including profanity, drug use, prostitution, infidelity and abortion, while it also produced films...

After a slew of middle-of-the-road movies in recent weeks, we’ve finally got a couple to mix up the leaderboard a little, with this week heralding two of this year’s best movies! And another couple of middle-of-the-roaders, because we can’t have everything, can we? Here’s what the LAMB community has to say about Hello Or High Water, Kubo and the Two Strings, War Dogs and...

“Cult Chops” a monthly feature where each month we will be looking at a different genre of cult cinema as well as key actors and directors who established their legacies directing films from these genres

August saw the LAMB members head down under to check out the wild world of Ozploitation cinema, here’s what they had to say
