Absence

Some time later...

Ok, ok, it’s been a while. This blog hasn’t been updated in faaaar too long.

Not to worry though. Half of the reason for this is that, in volunteering at the Leeds International Film Festival (the UK’s biggest outside London, apparently), I’ve been way too busy watching films towrite much about them!

So, coming very, very soon will be reviews of every single film I’ve seen as part of the festival. Let’s go! Dr Strangelove, Huacho, A Town Called Panic and many many more to come!

Episode V: Chopping Mall Strikes Back

We’re back.

It’s been a long, long absence but - like many a zombie - the fact that Chopping Mall looked dead didn’t mean that it was dead. Not at all.

Instead, Chopping Mall returns refreshed, renewed and reinvigorated for a new year, nay, a new decade of exciting, gorey, thrilling films. I plan to broaden the scope of the blog a little; wheras previously it was almost all reviews, with the occasional special news piece, the new year should welcome in a little more film criticism, cinema news and history and all sorts of exciting fun.
