Stoker and Vanishing Wave Trailers

Hey Folks,
Two new trailers for your perusal.

First up we have Stoker, the first English language movie from Park Chan Wook, the master film maker behind Oldboy, Thirst, Lady Vengeance etc. Looks to be every bit as good as his Korean offerings.





Secondly we have the Lithuanian Sci-Fi Vanishing Waves. This ones been getting a fair few positive reviews and a couple of festival awards to boot. One to keep an eye out for.




Thanks to the folks at twitchfilm.com for the original uploads.
Enjoy.

Ninth Show (or The Movie Show is a Scientific Marvel)

Hey Folks,
Ninth show goes out live tonight 27th Sept 2012 at 20:00 GMT.

We decided for this show to tie the theme into the release of Looper, so the music tonight will be pulled from movies with a Sci-Fi theme (why sci-fi in general and not time travel, well we couldn't come up with enough tunes from time travel movies alone).

We've got a good diverse mix lined up for you tonight with possibly a bit less eighties cheese than usual (shocking I know!), we've even got a Morning Masume track thrown in for good measure, for those of you who don't have the foggiest who they are then we'll just say you're in for a treat (although maybe that's not quite the right word).

Victorian Monkey will be back with another Cult Classic review and as always we'll be letting you know what's currently out and upcoming in the local cinemas. Tune in through the BSR listen live link to the left and we hope you enjoy.

Eighth Show (or The Movie Show Goes Back To School)

Hey Folks,
Apologies for the lack of updates, its been a hectic two weeks. Anyways on to the important stuff, the next show goes out live tonight Thursday 13th Sept at 20:00 GMT.

Yet again there's not much being released in the next two weeks which we could comfortably tie a theme into, so Jim, in a rare moment of inspiration, suggested we instead link the theme into kids returning to school after the holidays. So tonight for your listening pleasure the tunes will be based off of Teen School Movies.
Now we've been pretty broad on our definition here so expect tracks from Films such as the classics of John Hughes to Horrors and Comedies . Basically if it stars teen characters and features a school we've considered it fair game.
Sad to say though, no blues track this week as none of the soundtracks included one, so I've dug out some swing instead, just for something a little different. It would have been very easy to turn this one into an entire eighties night but we've been good and avoided the urge (well almost avoided, it wouldn't be right without at least a few servings of cheese) .

Victorian Monkey (Matt D) will be joining us once again (and hopefully for every show from here on out) and will have another Cult review on hand.

So as always tune in via the BSR listen Live link to the left and let us know your thoughts either during or after the broadcast.
Enjoy the show.
