One Great Shot: Carrie (1976)

Posted on October 11, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble Despite turning 50 this year and spawning a series of versions (including a recent Mike Flanagan’s TV series adaptation), I’ve not spoken about Carrie on the blog. This seems like a bit of an egregious oversight. But I hope … Continue reading →

Personal Post: Clearing out House

Posted on September 16, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Of all things, a moment from Green Lantern (2011), currently speaks to me. The scene depicts a Guardian (Krona) slowly being drawn to the yellow source of fear, (taking the form of a cascading yellow flame that reveals a symbol).  … Continue reading →

Review: Evil Dead Burn (2026)

Posted on July 13, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble To use a bit of internet verbiage, when a new Evil Dead movie is released, then I am seated. It’s certainly the most consistent horror film franchise and now an exciting revolving door of upcoming talent. However, I could … Continue reading →

Brief Consideration: Michael (2026)

Posted on April 26, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble At this point, it seems multiple generations have a yarn or two about Michael Jackson. For me, it was the repeated play of ‘Billie Jean’ and ‘Thriller’ at various parties, as well as the discovery of obscure songs such … Continue reading →

One Great Shot: Scream VI (2023)

Posted on February 25, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble If there were ever an opportunity to pull out the “Surprise Sidney!”, this would be the preamble for it. I realise that once again, any form of writing on Scream (2022) has been put on the back burner. However, … Continue reading →

One Great Shot: Scream 4 (2011)

Posted on February 24, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble At this point, it’s no surprise to admit that Scream 4 is my favourite movie in the series. Its meta commentary, and Ghostface’s motive appeals to me most. Plus, for the reasons discussed in my original review and this … Continue reading →

One Great Shot: Scream 2 (1998)

Posted on February 18, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble I’ll be honest: two posts in, I’m already feeling the daunting nature of this series. This is not because I don’t have much to say, but because I don’t want to cover old ground or repeat what I’ve said … Continue reading →

One Great Shot: Megalopolis (2024)

Posted on January 24, 2026 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble To quote Gurney Halleck from Dune (2021)- “I see you’ve found the mood.” My blog posts can be erratic at the worst of times: 3 posts in a week, then nothing for nearly 10 days. However, I don’t follow … Continue reading →

Brief Consideration: I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025)

Posted on July 23, 2025 by Sartaj Govind Singh

Preamble “Well, well, well”, as Angelina Jolie’s Maleficent once said. There’s no reason for the quote other than to create a dramatic opening to the post. This is perhaps the longest time since I last saw a film and wrote … Continue reading →
