I’ve said it many times before and I’ve no doubt I’ll say it many times again, but Canadians know how to make damn good horror flicks and guess what? They also know how to do great retro-grindhouse flicks too! Yes Discopath, the tale of a man turned to murder by the beat, is another fantastic genre flick from the land that brought us He Knows You’re Alone, My Bloody Valentine and the more recent Antisocial.
Writer/director Renaud Gauthier made his name as a music video director, so it should come as no surprise that music features heavily in his first feature film, Discopath, an epic tale of trauma and turntables:
It’s 1976, Donna Summer tops the charts and everyone believes in mirror balls. Except Manhattan burger cook Duane...

While the vast majority of the media coverage as the transfer window closed was on Manchester United’s acquisition of Falcao and Daley Blind, plenty of other clubs have been busy putting the final pieces of their squads together.
Even with an encouraging 3-1 win at West Ham this weekend, it is clear that Ronald Koeman’s Southampton are both in need of strengthening and in possession of a huge amount of spending money after the summer departures of five key players. Saints, therefore, proved one of the busier clubs on deadline day with two new players coming in to St. Mary’s and five going out.
Belgian international defender Toby Alderweireld had been rumoured for a move to the North East with both Newcastle and Sunderland reported to be close to securing the Atletico Madrid player’s signature. It was to the other end of...

Tess
Written by Gérard Brach, Roman Polanski, and John Brownjohn
Directed by Roman Polanski
France/UK, 1979
Roman Polanski revealed an exceptional eye for gripping visual design in his earliest films. In those works, like Knife in the Water, Cul-de-sac, Repulsion, Rosemary’s Baby and, somewhat later, The Tenant, most of this pictorial construction was derivative of themes, and subsequent depictions of, confinement, claustrophobic paranoia, and severely taut antagonism. In terms of visual and narrative scope, Chinatown opened things up somewhat, but it was with Tess, his 1979 adaptation of Thomas Hardy’s “Tess of the d’Urbervilles,” that Polanski significantly broadened his canvas to encompass the sweeping tale of the Victorian era loves and conflicts of this eponymous peasant girl.
Polanski speaks to this distinction during an interview in the newly released Criterion Collection Blu-ray/DVD of Tess. In discussing the film for the French TV program Cine regards, the director...
