Armored: Blu-ray Review

by David Scarborough

Predators: that looks a decent film, doesn’t it? We’re all looking forward to watching the limp-wristed Adrian Brody holding a gun in an image akin to a Twiglit holding a cricket bat, right? What you probably didn’t realise is that the unfortunately named Nimrod Antel has recently honed his directing chops on Armored, which hits DVD [...]

Lost Episodes 17 & 18 ‘The End’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

It’s all over. Six series, 121 episodes, a few plane crashes and an omnipotent canine, and all Lost boiled down to was a giant tampon in the middle of the Island. Brilliant. We could go down the easy route of bringing up the copious amounts of plot holes, strewn across the Island landscape like the [...]

Lost Episode 16 ‘What They Died For’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

So it’s come to this after all these weeks. We’ve had brutal deaths, glorious goat-faced babies. The highest of highs and the lowest of lows. So it comes with monumental sadness that we have reached our penultimate point. Yes, next week marks the last ever Lost Deconstruction from Hecklerspray. And, yes, we know it’s already [...]

Lost Episode 15, Across The Sea: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

When Lost delivers a metaphorical mouthful, it doesn’t seem to be satisfied until we’re gagging on the mediocre morsels that it leaves in its wake. This week was like a bank holiday Monday on the Island; everyone important has buggered off for a day, leaving it to that woman from The West Wing to do [...]

Exclusive: How I Met Your Mother Clip

by David Scarborough

We’re fairly certain that you are familiar with the American sitcom How I Met Your Mother – after all, it is on E4. Unfortunately, this means that the show is constantly forced into your eye-holes to the point where you are repulsed even by the sight of your own mother. If you’re not up to [...]

Lost Episode 14 ‘The Candidate’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

Honestly, it’s not a good time to be a child in Lost. No sooner had Goat Baby been abandoned by its crusty crazy mother, now poor Ji Yeon has been made an orphan because her parents decided to be selfish and drown, like they were starring in a 1997 boat movie. Bastards. At least we [...]

Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day – DVD Review

by David Scarborough

Irish stereotypes: They will have us all believing that if our paddy friends aren’t pickling themselves in alcohol, they are furiously thrusting their fists in the general area of any indistinct bystander’s face. Of course, it’s all complete hogwash. The only Irish people we know are singers, and they generally make us drink excessively and [...]

Mad Men Season 3 – DVD Review

by David Scarborough

Here at Hecklerspray, we are an esteemed bunch of distinguished gentlemen (with the odd stylish woman thrown in for good measure). We’ve been known to put on a suit, slick on the Brylcreem and slap a lady on the derriere – we’re only human after all. So it’s no surprise then that we are all [...]

Competition: Win Copies of Booondock Saints II: All Saints Day on DVD

by David Scarborough

Billy Connolly: comedian, actor, homeless man lookalike, and sunglass-wearing kickass action star? In Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day he is, and it’s hitting DVD on May 3 in all its gun-totting paddy glory. Yes, it’s the sequel you’ve all been waiting for to the original film that you probably never saw back in 1999. [...]

Lost Episode 13 ‘The Last Recruit’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

Well, that was all a bit of a Cocketease now, wasn’t it? If ever a Lost episode did so much and accomplished so little, then colour us surprised. But as all the candidates come together, we at least have the game set for an explosive finale – that’s if they have enough pyrotechnics left in [...]
