“THE LAWNMOWER MAN” (1992) | Film Review
In a few cases, film adaptations of Stephen King’s novels have been good and have become classics in pop culture. Most of his brilliant stories in film and television, however, are to be found in a trashy corner, which makes it difficult to distinguish between story and realisation and thus a fair assessment. Let’s try anyway.
“MAYHEM” (2017) | Film Review
If you’re an office worker who puts up with the madness within your four walls and with your oh-so-lovely colleagues day in, day out, you’ll absolutely understand the premise of this black action comedy. Sometimes you just want to have a good reason to go all out.
“TOM, DICK AND HAIRY” (1993) | Film Review
“All men are basically the same”, says this lesser-known Hong Kong tragicomedy from 1993, they only want one thing: true love. Sounds cheesy, but when three penises are chatting at the dining table at night, you know it’s the finest Cantonese comedy cuisine.
“TRIGGER WARNING” (2024) | Film Review

“SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL” (2023) | Film Review
All cats are grey at night. You could also say that anyone who hangs around Las Vegas at night is dirty. An interesting film theory when you consider that every character in this somewhat different road movie can become a shady one.
“CITY HUNTER” (2024) | Film Review
‘CITY HUNTER’ has been one of the most popular manga ever since the mid-1980s and has become a popular film project thanks to Jackie Chan’s performance as Ryo Saeba in the 1993 film of the same name. In 2024, the otherwise politically correct Netflix surprises with the Japanese film adaptation.
