‘Portal To Hell’ featuring Roddy Piper

The late Roddy Piper was a true legend, so when the 2015 edition of the Toronto International Film Festival screened one of his last films, Portal To Hell, Sarah made a point of talking to writer Matt Watts and director Vivieno Caldinelli about the Rowdy one.

It turns out that Watts and Caldinelli were huge marks for Piper and they couldn’t say enough good things about the man behind Piper’s Pit.

Anomalisa

Anomalisa

Sarah was on assignment covering the 2015 Toronto Film Festival this year for Consequence Of Sound.

I don’t know what “a beautiful exploration of terminal lassitude” means, but that’s what she thought of the film Anomalisa.

Posthumous Is Solid Screwball Romantic Satire

Posthumous

Posthumous

When Sarah went down to the Niagara Film Festival awhile back one of the intriguing features she saw was a screwball-ish rom-com called Posthumous.

There are love triangles, hijinx, stuff… y’know, all the things a film like this is supposed to have.

Sarah wrote about it for Consequence Of Sound.

Station To Station Is No Festival Express

Station To Station

Station To Station

In 2013 a guy named Doug Aitken made a weird art-freak train trip across the country in which people like Thurston Moore, Cat Power and Beck showed up to take part in the ride.

These events were then turned into a movie called Station To Station.

Sarah reviewed Station To Station for Consequence Of Sound.

Karate Kid’s Real Villain

Karate Kid

Karate Kid

Y’know that film Karate Kid from 1984 with the wax on, wax off and the story of a plucky youngster named Daniel LaRusso overcoming his adversaries through karate?

It turns out Daniel was the bad guy and we’re only now just figuring it out.

Sarah wrote about why for Fightland.
