This week on the GeekCast, regular host Sam Faulkner is joined by an unchanged line-up, with Becky Reed, Andrew Jones and Stefan Pape convening to cast their collective gaze over the week’s film releases.

We take a look at Eran Creevy’s Brit Thriller Welcome to the Punch, before discussing the controversial slasher Maniac. We then lighten the mood with a little of The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, before examining troubled remake Red Dawn and Cannes boo target The Paperboy. Wrapping up with a review of London Film Festival favourite Shell and Stefan’s usual Hollywood anecdotes featuring an unimpressed Ken Loach and a marginally more impressed Phil Daniels, we have plenty to talk about this week. 


geekcast: welcome to the punch, maniac, red dawn

GeekCast: Compliance, Jack The Giant Killer, Reality.

We go over the action packed GI Joe Retaliation, before exploring Danny Boyle’s Trance. The Host didn’t screen for press this week, so moving on through François Ozon’s In The House, Stefan then reviews Good Vibrations before the panel discuss whether too much knowledge about a film can be a bad thing. We then take a quick look at The Hobbit and Rise of the Guardians on home release.
