Been wanting to see this one ever since hearing Mark Kermode rave about it a few years ago and for anyone who enjoys 'occult horror' this brooding gem will tick many boxes.

It was obvious it was one of those films you absolutely had to be in the right frame of mind to watch otherwise it was never going to hit the spot.

So glad I managed to get myself in the right headspace to watch what can only be described as a psychedelic stroll through Ben Wheatleys' twisted imagination. Shot in black and white and with a constant almost nightmarish undertone this never gets above walking pace but always keeps you hooked.

The tent scene is incredibly unnerving and will probably stay with you for quite some time.

A Field in England is arguably a bit of a masterpiece and well worth a visit.

Flicking through Prime I came across this pleasant surprise.

Stacked full of clichés and corny dialogue this shouldn't be any good. But it's a good solid couple of hours entertainment.

Jason Statham keeps his side of the bargain putting in a very passable turn with his trademark 'cocky geezer' impression and is ably assisted by Paddy Considine as his 'straight laced' partner.

If you can see past the obvious plot holes you will be rewarded for your time.

This is no Oscar Winner, just a well put together piece of lightweight daft as a box of frogs bubblegum light entertainment.

Do yourself a favour, pour a cold one, turn off your phone, sit back and enjoy.
