Siege of the Saxons ** (1963, Ronald Lewis, Janette Scott, Ronald Howard, Mark Dignam, John Laurie) – Classic Movie Review 3650
Set in Arthurian times but with medieval England sets and style, director Nathan Juran’s low-budget 1963 British historical adventure is endearingly feeble, murky, cheap-looking. It extensively reuses footage, costumes and props from the 1954 Alan Ladd […]
No Way Home *** (1996, Tim Roth, Deborah Kara Unger, James Russo) – Classic Movie Review 3603
Tim Roth, then in 1996 carving out an American career of note, impresses as an ex-con who return to live with his lowlife older brother (James Russo) and wife (Deborah Kara Unger). Roth and Unger […]
No Sex Please: We’re British **½ (1973, Ronnie Corbett, Beryl Reid, Arthur Lowe) – Classic Movie Review 3510

Ten Little Indians ** (1989, Donald Pleasence, Frank Stallone, Sarah Maur Thorp, Brenda Vaccaro, Herbert Lom, Moira Lister, Neil McCarthy) – Classic Movie Review 3262
Director Alan Birkinshaw’s just acceptable British 1989 thriller is the fourth of the four movie versions of Agatha Christie’s famous whodunit detective novel about 10 people invited by a mysterious stranger to an isolated location […]
The Pure Hell of St Trinian’s *** (1960, Cecil Parker, George Cole, Joyce Grenfell, Thorley Walters, Dennis Price, Sidney James) – Classic Movie Review 2797
Co-writer/co-producer/director Frank Launder’s less entertaining 1961 number three in the comedy film franchise brings back the hellish schoolgirls from Ronald Searle’s St Trinian’s cartoons, who now torch their school and are recruited for an Arab’s harem. It […]
Carry On England ** (1976, Kenneth Connor, Joan Sims, Peter Butterworth, Judy Geeson, Windsor Davies, Jack Douglas, Melvyn Hayes, Patrick Mower) – Classic Movie Review 2376
Director Gerald Thomas’s laborious 1976 Carry On film is the 28th and penultimate movie in the beloved innuendo-ridden series – at least until the 90s revival Carry On Columbus added a final 30th. It is […]
