[Note: With the film finally released on DVD here in the UK (the Us release was over a year ago), here’s a reposting of our review of Fox Trap, now retitled Don’t Blink for its UK debut]
After a cruel prank goes wrong on prom night leaving a young girl disabled, the group go their separate ways and try to leave the incident in the past. Eight years later the group are invited to a country side manor for a reunion. Things may seem strange at first, but as the night goes on they realise they can’t escape the past and find themselves at the mercy of a masked killer out for revenge.
Don’t Blink manages to recreate the classic slasher genre for a modern audience, although it still maintains the characterises and formula which made the revenge slashers films of the 80’s so popular.

Exclusive: Dani Dyer, star of British reality smash Love Island, is in talks to star in a feature film that deals with race, politics, religion and sexuality from a fledgling, socially conscious production collective.
The British actress, who is the daughter of EastEnders and The Football Factory star Danny Dyer, has been lined up to star in O31, from Roccowinks Productions, set up by Joshua Whincup and Miriam Ahmed. It would mark her first leading feature role, having had small roles in films such as We Still Kill The Old Way, and comes as her star is rising thanks to the ratings success of the ITV2 format. Last year, she filmed low-budget horror film Heckle alongside Clark Gable III, grandson of the Gone with the Wind actor.
O31, which is currently in pre-production, sees Dyer play Nancy Francis, a young girl suffering with grief following her mother’s murder and...

Jamie Weston is an upcoming film director who will be making an impact in 2017. With the erotic thriller Darker Shades of Elise already available to purchase and a DVD release of his debut feature Fox Trap coming out in October, I got some time to talk with Jamie about his experiences in film, issues with special effects and things that only a camera can catch on an erotic thriller…
With Fox Trap, what made you decide to do a horror as your debut feature?
I got brought on to do it. I work as a freelance director and self-shooter. I was offered the opportunity to direct a feature and it just happened to be a horror. I got asked at the end of November and at the start of January I was on set.
Making a horror as your first feature was great, because horrors are very experimental. You can...

The 2016 Super Bowl won’t be written Super Bowl L – rather Super Bowl 50 – leaving behind the traditional Roman numeral format in favor of the stadard Arabic numerals.
Super Bowl 50
Since Super Bowl V in 1971, the NFL has been using Roman numerals to denote the league’s championship game. For the 2016 Super Bowl, the league’s VP of brand and creative Jamie Weston decided that the league should take a year off from tradition. According to Weston, the aesthetics of a lone “L” just didn’t work for the logo.
"When we developed the Super Bowl Xl logo, that was the first time we looked at the letter L," Weston told Espn. "Up until that point, we had only worked with X's, V's and I's. And, at that moment, that's when we started to wonder: What will happen when we get to 50?"
