- SXSW London: Bloodsuckers (2026) Review: A Sensational Debut Short Film
Rosie Brear’s debut short film Bloodsuckers (2026) brings a female-led story with 26-year-old vampire slayer, Bliss. The film speaks on student flat sharing, loneliness, and bullying. Showcasing at the SXSW London 2026 Screen Festival under the ‘Shorts: Ghosts, Ghouls and Glitches’ collection, Bloodsuckers is certainly a short film that delivers. - Fuze (2025) Review: A Daring Tensional & Twisty Heist
Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Theo James lead this twisty tensional British crime-thriller about a bomb disposal unit and a bank heist. Written by Ben Hopkins and directed by David Mackenzie, this thriller is gripping from the start. With strong storytelling and great direction, Fuze is the latest must-watch Sky Cinema release. - Moss & Freud (2025) Review: When A Successful Supermodel Meets An Inspirational Artist
Writer-director James Lucas depicts the relationship between supermodel Kate Moss and artist Lucian Freud in this biographical drama.

Embedded in London culture – the film displays the Y2K fashion and ‘Cool Britannia’ movement of its time. - Cannes Film Festival Review: Lucy Lost (Clert, 2026)
A practically perfect, or ideal film in almost every sense — including its lovely little 85-minute runtime. Perfect for children… - Normal (2025) Review: A Weirdly Wonderful Small-town Heist Turns Deadly
Normal follows Bob Odenkirk’s Ulysses as the new interim sheriff in the small town of Normal, Minnesota. But after a bank robbery goes wrong, Ulysses soon discovers the town harbours dark secrets.
