    So sorry to hear about the end of the kermode and mayo bandwagon coming yo a halt. Hopefully you will return in a different guise. You've been part of my life for 20 yrs now. I will just say both of you should be thoroughly proud of yourselves. 👏 👏

    A wonderful pair. I actually taught Kermode's film reviews this year to 17-18 year olds in Brazil as an example of how people can use a format to engage with a range of global issues. They picked extracts and compared them (for the International Baccalaureate) to a range of literary texts. Sex and the City Review against King Lear for the obsession with wealth and status as a global issue was a favourite. Thank you for the times gentlemen. Didn't agree with everything but you were always worth listening to, and we always knew it came from a genuine love of film, and a genuine love of people.

      It's not ending. Their show is leaving the BBC. They will still have this RUclips channel. I'm sure they have plans to continue.

    Very amusing to watch Kermode talk about a cheap rubbish horror flick - you can see how _entirely_ in his wheelhouse he is.

    It's clear most of its 4 million dollar budget went on the practical effects, which are decent! It's a gooey body horror movie that a select audience will enjoy. But most will hate this.

    It was a fairly decent movie but then I like schlocky b-movie horror flicks. I'd say the second half of the film was better
    It had trippy Lynchian dream sequences, Cronenberg body horror with a little bit of Stewart Gordon in there too. The bizarre sequence with the girls writhing naked in the Alien's... I don't know what the hell it was, but it reminded me of Society. It is how Mark described it, 80s throwback if ever there was one.

    If this was a Peter Bradshaw review in the Guardian, I'd immediately take this as a sign that I *must* see it. I have a feeling The Good Doctor enjoyed it more than he's letting on. 😉

    Honestly I'm sold just from the opening description. I really really really hope Mark's going to say it's the best Eraserhead-meets-swimsuit models movie ever produced.
    EDIT: Y'know, I'm still sold!
