10 memorably trippy moments in Doctor Who

Classic Who had more than its fair share of really, really weird moments. The TARDIS doesnt just explode; it fragments into chunks. Jamie and Zoe are left clutching the console for dear life as it dips into a black void. Crash-zooms and funky optical effects to give the appearance of Jon Pertwees face being pulled apart. But back in the 70s, entering the Matrix was like diving into a bottle of absinthe....

Tales From The Crypt Volume 4 (Dark Horse Comics) Review

Ever wonder why most mainstream comics became bloodless and tame after about 1955? The excesses of books likeTales From the Cryptbrought the house down. Its kind of fortuitous. Since these are archives, all the original ads and lettercolumns (hilariously answered by The Crypt-Keeper himself!) are reproduced as well as the stories. Ah, but its the stories that are the star here. A fairly standard werewolf tale, but notable for its drum-tight pacing and flawless art....

Christopher Eccleston: Thor, Star Trek, Let Him Have It, sci-fi

Heres how we got on… Can we start withLet Him Have It? What struck me about the film was that was quite an un-British film at the time. And it was rare to see a young actor getting something so weighty on the big screen. How did that come to you, because it was an Alex Cox project originally wasnt it? I auditioned for Alex Cox, and he cast me, and then Alex left the project....

Doctor Who’s top 50 controversies

Being the kids own show that adults adore brings more risk than the phrase suggests. Here, then, are fifty controversial incidents from the history ofDoctor Who. Much of this took critical form. My personal favourite is I feel the character is over-exaggerated whimsical even. The Second Doctor was a very tactile man, and his attitude caused difficulties for his wives and children. The character of Toberman was written as deaf, and wearing a hearing aid....

What Superman 3 teaches us about computer programming

Gus Gorman’s computer programming in Superman III nearly brings the world to its knees. But how did he do it? Er… Hollywood movies and computers didnt always really get on in the early 1980s. Screenwriters were left with the option of researching them, and putting things that made sense on the screen. Or just making shit up, and hope that it stuck. Superman III, then. It may not be a popular opinion, but weve always had a soft spot forSuperman III....

David Gordon Green interview: Prince Avalanche

Thats my first introduction to David Gordon Green. A pretty good reason for postponing a 10 minute phone interview, you have to admit. I cant really hold a candle to Mother Nature. So we hook up a day later. Hes also something of a challenge. And he directsSuperbowl TV spotsstarring Clint Eastwood too. As is always the case, ten minutes is never enough. Especially with a filmmaker as effusive as Green....
