The LAMB is an international community, and somewhat annoyingly not all films get released at the same time worldwide (*cough* Snowpiercer *cough*). For the bigger releases there might be just a week’s difference, but here in the UK the films that really hurt me personally are the Pixar releases, which are often released over a month later than a lot of other countries, presumably to match up with the school holidays. As such...
“Cult Chops” a monthly feature where each month we will be looking at a different genre of cult cinema as well as key actors and directors who established their legacies directing films from these genres.
For this month’s “Cult Chops” we are heading out on a slightly lighter and often more random track as July will be dedicated to Natural Horror Movies / Nature Runs...

You know what I’m getting sick of? Sequels. Every week the Lambscores posts are full of sequel after sequel, unoriginal adaptation after unoriginal adaptation. We need at least five reviews for a relatively fair ranking, so get out there and review the smaller films! Please! If only for my sake!

This week’s releases aren’t exactly what could be described as “prestigious” but some of you found them entertaining and as far as I’m concerned that’s all that matters. This week we’ve reviewed Me Before You, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows and so far winning the best title of the year: Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping. Here’s what the LAMB...
Part of our ongoing “Cult Chops” feature here on the LAMB were the whole of June is dedicated to New Queer Cinema / LGBT Cinema. If you have any articles, reviews, podcast or other fun LGBT Cinema related bits e-mail them to [email protected]
So what is New Queer Cinema? Essentially a genre coined by academic B. Ruby Rich who in an issue of “Sight & Sound Magazine...
I forgot to mention last week that the very well received Sing Street sent ripples through the LAMBScores table by becoming our highest rated film so far this year! Alas no such luck this week, with some lacklustre sequels and a little-seen period piece not making too much of an impact. Maybe we’ll have better luck next week with Out of the Shadows. Up for review this week: Alice Through The Looking Glass,...

So after kicking things off with “Biker movies” last month and with June being “LGBT Pride Month” what better time to celebrate the wealth of great LGBT movies out there. More so when...
