 Smells Like a Scouse Ferry-Tale
Director: David Morrissey
Main Cast: James Brough, Helen Elizabeth
David Morrissey (Nowhere Boy, The Other Boleyn Girl) is well established in the acting world, packing a powerful punch on screen time after time. But does he manage to re-create the same magic behind the camera? After a shaky opening scene, the answer is thankfully yes. With a clear and strong connection between the romantic leads, as well as pondering pans of the city and surrounding beaches of Liverpool, this is definitely a feature debut worth being proud of.
DVD Release Date: 8th March 2010

 Smells like Something Really Nasty Just Happened
Director: Steven Kastrissios
Main Cast: Peter Marshall, Caroline Marohasy, Brad McMurray The Horsemen is an insanely violent Australian revenge movie. Essentially, it is torture-porn - with the porn set at 2 and the torture turned to 11. As such, it is certainly an exhilarating bloodbath of a movie, but ultimately the plot makes Iron Man look like it has depth. DVD Release Date: 1st March 2009 |

 Smells Like the End of Days
Directors: Milan Konjevic, Milan Todorovic
Main Cast: Ken Foree, Kristina Klebe, Emilio Rosso
Classic zombie film this is not. Steaming pile of horse manure is more like it. Cliché after cliché, you can see the next plot turn coming a mile off, lacking in wit and good production values, this film is a waste of your time unless you are very very drunk and do not care what you are watching, but even then you could always stick on your much loved copy of the Evil Dead for real entertainment.
DVD: Release Date: 5th March 2010

 Smells Like the Plot is Leading the Character, Your Honour
Director: Michael Craft
Main Cast: Matt Scully, Damien Garvey, Saskia Burmeister, Robert Mammone
Storage is a perfect example of a talented director who shouldn’t write his own scripts. Michael Craft’s debut looks great, the murky storage facility and its inhabitants set up an alternate reality that has the potential to delve into the creepy territory that Fincher explored with ‘Fight Club’ and ‘Panic Room’. Unfortunately it gets stuck under its own plot and takes wild uninteresting stabs at originality.
