Film & TV on DVD - John Doe Film News & Reviews

 
Greetings Film Fiends and welcome to John Doe's Film Blog. 30 years of dedicated celluloid obsession has meant that I have seen a few films. Drawing attention to some of the lesser discussed gems that I love. Cult classics, obscure curios and quality genre pictures. This blogs purpose is to translate some of my passion for these films and with luck, inspire you the reader to go check em out.

John Doe’s picks from Sundance 2012

Highlights from the 2012 Sundance Film Festival

Apologies but we have another space filler episode here on JDM. John Doe is still not in a place to regularly post, but refuses to surrender his domain to the ‘Inactive Blogs” archive…Hang tight kids, John Doe will return in 2012.

Looking like a cross between Heathers and Teeth, Excision should be a good time. Watch the Teaser Trailer below.



Now that the sun has danced over the horizon on that Robert Redford film festival JD thought he would briefly share a few of the titles from the line up that made it onto his keep-an-eye-out-for-in-cinemas list.

By no means definitive, just an overview of some snapshots that stuck in Johnny's memory. Feel free to share your comments on the festival below. (For more information just click on each title which is linked to its corresponding imdb page.
