Hello everyone, once again it’s time to give you the two week warning for this month’s Director’s Chair, which, to remind you, is looking at the films of Danny Boyle. For a brief overview of the works of Danny Boyle, along with what you can cover for your posts, look at the introduction post here....
Another eclectic mix of movies for you this week, and this time the highest voted film, and one that jumps straight to the number 1 spot on the LAMBScores table for the year, is one that I’ve barely even heard of! Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about Star Trek Beyond, Lights Out, Cafe Society, Ice Age: Collision Course and Captain Fantastic:
Captain...
This month “Cult Chops” is heading down under to look at the wild and often incredibly strange world of Australian exploitation cinema better known as “Ozploitation”!!
A genre which always existed lurking beneath the surface as it wormed its way in seemingly every sub-genre of cult cinema while bringing with it a very distinctive style of film making as reckless and visionary directors like Brian...
Eco-Horror, Natural Horror, Animals Gone Rogue, Animals Invading the Human Sphere (thanks Jenn), unquestionably it’s a genre which goes by almost as many names as it has found inventive ways to turn pretty much any animal into nightmare fuel.
While you might be mistaken for assuming that this sub-genre came out of the hysteria of the 1950’s where cinema from the time can be seen reflecting the fear of communist invasion or...
Time to look at one of 2016’s most divisive films this week, Paul Feig’s reboot of the 1984 classic, Ghostbusters. Whether you went in with an open mind or were a dyed-in-the-wool “Ghost-Bro”, or came out raving or grumbling, everyone seemed to have a different opinion, but what did the LAMB community have to say? Check out our reviews below, along with some thoughts on the latest Bryan Cranston vehicle,...

Hello everyone, it’s once again time to announce the director I will be highlighting for the month in Director’s Chair and, seeing as how in the past few weeks we’ve been getting news about Trainspotting 2 and memories of the 2012 Olympics Opening Ceremony, I think now is the perfect time to highlight...
So we once again come to wrap up a Director’s Chair feature, this time with easily the most responses I’ve received since I restarted Director’s Chair. I want to thank everyone who sent in pieces on Kathryn Bigelow’s films and without further ado, here we go.
The Loveless:

Of these weeks two movies, there’s one that I’ve been really looking forward to seeing, and the other looked like utter tripe, yet based on these reviews from the LAMB community my trailer-based predictions could be entirely mis-placed. Guess I’ll just have to watch them both some time and find out. In the mean time, here’s what the LAMB has to say about The Secret Life of Pets and Mike and Dave Need...
The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!
Once again it’s proved that attempting to predict the Movie of the Month winner can be far from reliable as a group of movies including some established classics and topical films instead provides us with a decidedly under-seen flick in the form of… Streets of Fire.…

Three films for you this week. Here’s what the LAMB community has to say about The BFG, The Legend of Tarzan and The Purge: Election Year:
