Review: Heckle ‘A Slow Burn Turns Slasher’ (FrightFest 2020)
Review by Paul Grammatico
Many people in the entertainment industry get dragged on various social media channels. Being an almost unknown entity in this realm, I wouldn’t know what it would mean to be a target of such malice nor would I want to as I have been either a witness or an accidental bystander of such bashing on these platforms. I think that the worse verbal beating would be standing on a stage in front of an audience. Many stand-up comedians have been heckled by audience members during their acts. Most comedians, being experts in their craft of verbal stylings, can brush aside most instigators, but there are times where their retorts can go too far and end a career (channeling Michael Richards). Being a comic can be a brutal and fleeting business.

Arrow Video are re-releasing the Richard Kelly directed film ‘Southland Tales‘ on BluRay; available to order now and due for release in January 2021.
In 2001, writer/director Richard Kelly achieved cult status with ‘Donnie Darko’, an assured debut feature exploring deep existential questions through the lens of 80s nostalgia. Five years later, he followed it up with a more ambitious and even more beguiling sophomore effort, in which forces of totalitarianism and anarchism collide against the backdrop of a post-apocalyptic, near-future world – the beguiling and baffling Southland Tales.
Review: The Paternoster Gang – Heritage 4
Review by Jacob Licklider
The Paternoster Gang as a spin-off has suffered from a bit of an identity crisis through its first three volumes. It doesn’t know if it wants to be a spiritual successor to Jago and Litefoot or a straight out character driven comedy or a serious Victorian drama and examination of Victorian culture. The subtitle of the first four sets being ‘Heritage’ implies the later, but the first two sets don’t really examine the idea of heritage or the theme.
