The Stepfather – DVD Review

by David Scarborough

Horror remakes are the kind of subgenre that appear to be greenlit with reckless abandon but are approached, by everyone but a select lobotomised few, with nothing but sheer trepidation. They’re a scary prospect, these days. At least The Stepfather has the decency to eliminate the inconvenience of having to guess who the killer is [...]

Rupert Grint & Robert Sheehan – Hecklerspray Interview

by David Scarborough

We recently sat down with Ron Weasley and that Irish bloke from Misfits, and chatted to them about their new film together, Cherrybomb. I say we, we couldn’t be bothered. Instead, we sent out our antiquated interviewer, Will Staeton, to do our hard work for us. Rupert Grint and Robert Sheehan, as they prefer to [...]

Lost Episode 12 ‘Everybody Loves Hugo’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

Hurley has been plagued with bad luck throughout Lost; he won the lottery with cursed numbers, was part of a plane crash and he kind of looks like a hairy ball bag. Yet, for some reason, you’ve got to love the enduring optimism of the old chubster. This week the camera does its best to [...]

Paul Kaye – Hecklerspray Interview

by David Scarborough

You may recognise the hilarious Paul Kaye as the carrot-topped celebrity assaulter Dennis Pennis. Since the days of hounding celebrities, though, Kaye has been appearing in an array of film roles, including the recently released The Big I Am. The Big I Am is surrounded by reports of lead actors being injured on the first [...]

Ghost Machine – Exclusive Clip

by David Scarborough

After squeezing the chiselled mind-grapes of one Sean Faris this week, we’ve also got another dose of the American actor, with an exclusive clip of his new film Ghost Machine – which is out on DVD now. It’s all a bit Matrix, crossed over with Thirteen Ghosts and featuring a selection box of disposable teens [...]

15 Questions With Sean Faris

by David Scarborough

Occasionally, Hecklerspray’s plucky explorers set out into the wilderness to infiltrate the minds of the most intricate creatures of all: The Celebrity. So, in typical style, we ask 15 of the most irrelevant questions we can think of. Our latest subject is Never Back Down‘s main legs, teeth and fists, Sean Faris, currently to be [...]

Lost Episode 11 ‘Happily Ever After’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

The most tranquil man to leave Scotland, Desmond Hume, finally returned to the island this week armed with his super-duper time travel powers. The two Lost timelines were thrust together in another bright explosion of illogical lunacy. Desmond faced his arch-nemesis, American TV’s go-to geriatric arsehole, Jim Robinson, who has grabbed the wounded Scotsman (We [...]

The Descent Gory Death Montage

by David Scarborough

If you’ve gotta have a montage, it might as well be the type that involves human bloodshed on a mass scale, with beautiful young ladies being justifiably murdered in various inventive ways, all for your enjoyment. The Descent was a veritable tour-de-force in horror movie-making from Neil Marshall, and The Descent: Part 2 is now ready to throw [...]

Lost Episode 10 ‘The Package’: Deconstruction

by David Scarborough

While last week’s mythological mouthful left us more enlightened on Lost, it also chugged along at the pace of a two hundred year-old slave vessel. Black smoke monster, enslaved Spaniards, the questionable science of a wooden ship destroying a giant stone statue; it’s all poppycock we say. What we want is people running into trees. [...]

2012: Blu-ray Review

by David Scarborough

Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow) ushers in another wave of pixel-powered doom, this time wiping out our collective brain cells with his latest movie of mass destruction. 2012 is one of those happy movies; on one hand, serving up a doom-laden prophecy of global annihilation and, on the other, making you utterly [...]
