The jerky yet beautiful stop-motion animation of Ray Harryhausen. Mention the words giant monster movie, and these are almost certainly the images that immediately spring to mind. Its a simple template that has been repeated again and again over the decades. Its a tactic that Gareth Edwards used so effectively in his startling debut,Monsters. Its fitting, then, that Edwards is currently developing his own version of aGodzillamovie. Monsters is out now on DVD and Blu-ray andavailable from the Den Of Geek Store....

The box office failure of Cutthroat Island put Hollywood off pirate-based movies for years. Heres Tis look back at an oft-maligned film… (Oh, wait. That was inPirates Of The Caribbeantoo). After makingCliffhanger,Harlin was given carte blanche to do whatever he wanted. Now, I like Geena Davis.
