  • Film Reviews
    Page 78 FILM REVIEWS Kill List (Dir. Ben Wheatley) UK 2011 Optimum Releasing Note: This review contains extensive spoilers Kill List is the best British horror film since The Descent (Dir. Neil Marshall, 2005). Mind you, you wouldn’t know that from the opening half­hour or so. Although it opens with an eerie scratching noise and the sight of a cryptic rune that can’t help but evoke the unnerving stick figure from The Blair Witch Project (Dir. Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez, 1999), we’re then plunged straight into a series of compellingly naturalistic scenes of domestic discord which, as several other reviews have rightly pointed out, evoke nothing so much as the films of Mike Leigh. (The fact that much of the film’s dialogue is supplied by the cast also adds to this feeling.) But what Leigh’s work doesn’t have is the sense of claustrophobic dread that simmers in the background throughout Wheatley’s film (his second, after 2009’s Down Terrace ). Nor have any of them – to date at least – had an ending as devastating and intriguing as this. Yet the preliminary scenes in Kill List are in no sense meant to misdirect, or wrong­foot the audience: rather, they’re absolutely pivotal to the narrative as a whole, even if many of the questions it raises remain tantalisingly unresolved. Jay (Neil Maskell) and his wife Shel (MyAnna Buring) live in a spacious, well­appointed suburban home (complete with jacuzzi) and have a sweet little boy, but theirs is clearly a marriage on the rocks, and even the most seemingly innocuous exchange between them is charged with hostility and mutual misunderstanding.

  • Their Finest [12A] 2016|UK/Sweden|117 Min
    Film Their Finest [12A] 2016|UK/Sweden|117 min UK release date 21st April 2017 Director Lone Scherfig Screenplay Gaby Chiappe Cinematographer Sebastian Blenkov Cast Gemma Arterton (Catrin Cole); Sam Claflin (Tom Buckley); Bill Nighy (Ambrose Hilliard); Jack Huston (Ellis Cole) London, 1940. Catrin (Gemma Arterton) is scurrying home through the blitzed streets at dusk. Without warning, she is sideswiped by a bomb blast. Blinking grit from her eyes, she stumbles into a pile of broken bodies. Her initial horror tips into laughter when she realises that they are shop mannequins. Then she notices that one of them is bleeding – a salesgirl lies amid the wreckage of the window display. While the dust and death is still clearing from the air, Catrin vomits from shock, silhouetted in a yawning archway. The scene elegantly combines twin themes in this bracing second world war romance from Lone Scherfig. It captures the savage uncertainty of life during wartime; and, in a nod to the film’s movie industry backdrop, it deftly peels back layers of reality and artifice. Arterton brings a grace and dignity to the role, which suggests reserves of courage in her character that the screenplay only hints at. Catrin left her home in the Welsh valleys for love. Her artist husband Ellis (Jack Huston) specialises in self-important daubs depicting industrial blight. His canvases are a tough sell. Which is why, when Catrin is offered a job at the Ministry of Information’s film division, she jumps at the chance. Swiftly graduating from Mr Cholmondley-Warner-style informationals, she finds herself chipping in with the female angle on a propaganda film about twin girls who filched their father’s boat to help with the evacuation of Dunkirk.

    21st CENTURY TERROR [email protected] www.mondomoviehouse.wordpress.com Week 2. Ben Wheatley’s Britain Kill List (2011) Ben Wheatley • Directed by Ben Wheatley • Produced by Claire Jones and Andy Starke • Written by Amy Jump and Ben Wheatley • Cinematography by Laurie Rose • Edited by Robin Hill, Ben Wheatley and Amy Jump • Music by Jim Williams • The first part of the film portrays the private life of a hitman for hire • Avoiding Hollywood style clichés, it’s a very British character study • Though we are left with no doubt that that Jay and his associates are part of an extremely violent and systematic world of sanctioned murder, we are also invited into his ordinary home life. • Assassins are human too. • An incredibly violent film • It merges together folk horror, kitchen sink drama and gangster style productions effortlessly • Its conclusion is grisly and unrestrained • In some respects, we can also see this as a reflection of ‘Broken Britain’ – the UKs neglect is presented for us on screen • The insecurities of a country and its prevalent selfishness is presented to us writ large • It also presents us with neat/messy morality tale, the incredibly cruel denouement seems to highlight the dangers of violent actions begetting more violence • Despite its bloody violent nature, it could be argued that the film is anti-violent in its intent. Once we have chosen the path of violence then that same (or worse) violence will be visited on ourselves • This is an excellent 21st Century take on the horror film • Though not overtly ‘supernatural’ it’s horror lies within the unknown and the unsaid • Though the film alludes to witchcraft or cult devil worship we are given no clear answers • The questions the film leaves us with create an unsettling atmosphere, it’s a film which certainly crawls under the skin.
