Director: Edward Boase.
Writer: James Walker.
Blooded is a faux documentary styled thriller in the vein of The Blair Witch Project, Atrocious and others. This title was released exclusively in the United Kingdom with first time feature filmmaker Edward Boase at the helm. Blooded covers fox hunting in England, which is still one part tradition and another part controversy. The silly scripted interviews break up much of the tension in the reenacted central story line. And, sadly, this film is not even brave enough to pick a side in the controversy.
Five friends head up to the Isle of Mull to get away from it all. Lucas (Nick Ashdon, Neil McDermott), the protagonist, is a fox hunter and an advocate for this sport. He has his eye on Liv (Cicely Tennant, Isabella Calthorpe) for marriage, but he also has some hounds nipping at his heels. The local anti-hunting league has...

Source Code (12A) (Duncan Jones, 2011, Us/Fra)
Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga, Jeffrey Wright. 93 mins.
After cult hit Moon, Jones goes for the mainstream with a conceptual thriller that makes Christopher Nolan look soulless but would have Hitchcock scratching his head. The Deja Vu-meets-Groundhog Day plot forces Gyllenhaal's GI to relive the last eight minutes of a train bombing over and over till he finds the terrorist (experimental technology – don't ask). That shouldn't leave much time for relationships, big questions or light relief but it's all squeezed in, just about…
Sucker Punch (12A)
(Zack Snyder, 2011, Us/Can) Emily Browning, Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone. 110 mins.
Zack Snyder shows you his fantasy, which turns out to consist of fetish-outfitted babes in scenarios out of computer games and women's prison movies, to a diluted alt soundtrack. This man needs help.

First-time feature filmmakers director Edward Boase and screenwriter James Walker want you know right off the bat that Blooded is not a “mockumentary”... even though it is: that is to say, they are unquestionably telling a fictional story in a format that is often used to tell a nonfiction story. I think the point they’re making by denying the mockumentary label is that they have no intention of trying to fool you into wondering whether their story is actually true. It isn’t true, not at all... but the expansive documentary format -- complete with “reenactments” of “real” events -- lends a powerful urgency and immediacy and relevance to their invented story in a way that a more narrative structure would have missed. For Blooded is about more than just the horror-movie events it portrays: it’s about how the rise of amateur video and the Internet have collided...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars
A remote island, the hunters becoming the hunted, suffering psychical and mental torture at the hands of a masked enemy – sounds like a Hollywood script right? If even half the events that take place in Blooded, the directorial feature of Edward Boase are true it is certainly an extraordinary story. Unfortunate then that the film is a rather drab affair, never finding it’s feet as either documentary or drama.
In 2005 five friends went deer stalking on the beautiful but remote Isle of Mull. One of those individuals was Lucas Bell, the face of the pro-Fox Hunting campaign in Britain, along with his best friend and hunting buddy Ben, ex-girlfriend Liv, his estranged brother Charlie and his girlfriend Eve. When the five awake, alone and naked in the freezing cold wilderness their hunting holiday quickly turned into a deadly game of cat and mouse between them...

Werner Herzog gets the Simpsons treatment, while French director Fred Cavayé experiences a feeling of deja vu
Herzog and Homer
After driving Christian Bale and Klaus Kinski to distraction and tangling with Nicolas Cage, Werner Herzog has finally made it. The Bavarian film-maker has become a character on The Simpsons. Visiting London for the premiere of his latest poem/documentary Cave of Forgotten Dreams, Herzog told me he'd never seen a single episode of the show before but was very impressed when he went for a live read-through of his episode with the rest of the cast. In "The Scorpion's Tale", Herzog voices a demented German pharmaceutical executive taking an unhealthy interest in Grampa. "It was a very amusing experience and a very professional one," he told me over dinner in Brixton. "I very much like to use my voice for performing and although I at first wanted to play myself,...
