Big Gold Dream started long before any of the BBC Four documentaries on record labels or indie scenes. It was a long way from the first, but if there was a starting point for us,

Original Review here: http://www.vinyl-revolution.co.uk/big-gold-dream-the-sound-of-young-scotland-dvd-review/news/32 Thank you Vinyl Revolution I love Scottish Pop. If Spearmint hadn't already written a song about it (it's on their 2001 LP A Different Lifetime) I would have. But it's fair to say that Scotland's role in the development of punk and indie bands has been largely swept under the carpet over the years. Big Gold Dream goes a long way to rectifying this and sets out

A man sits alone in a room. Alone from the living that is, for his only companion is a corpse under a bloody sheet. Soon, though, he will be joined by vestiges of past events a

The Gothic horror classic appealed to a large audience, thereafter making his object of study, the bloodthirsty creatures of the night, a very exploitable subject, one that many other writers, filmmakers and game developers tried more or less successfully to tap into. Films such as ‘Van He

http://www.pophorror.com/night-kaleidoscope-2017-review/ Ever since Max Schreck starred as Nosferatu back in 1922, vampires have been reimagined and adapted to film for decades. Well-known features and actors such as The Last Man on Earth (Vincent Price, 1964), Fright Night (Chris Sarandon, 1985), The Lost Boys (Kiefer Sutherland, 1987) and Blade (Wesley Snipes, 1998) have left their mark in horror history depicting vampire monsters in various ways. They were typically been p

But it's also a horror art film, in that its style overwhelms the story. The story is pretty basic. Whenever the police come upon a vampire's victim, they call upon Fian (Patrick O'Brien), a local vampire hunter, to track and destroy the fiends. Apparently, the police are covering up that vampires abound in Edinburgh (that's in Scot
