Lee Adams is a lover of the psychological and the supernatural, stuff that creeps under his skin rather than just goosing him with a cheap jump scare.

So, as Halloween approaches, here are eleven horror picks from him that reflect those tastes…

With a hat-trick of masterpieces in the ‘70s, William Friedkin established himself as one of Hollywood’s most fearless and innovative directors. When he passed away recently at the age of 87, the movie world also lost one of its most entertaining and forthright raconteurs. 

With the release of another Exorcist film, Lee Adams takes an in depth look at the series to date.

As Britain’s biggest and most famous city, London has played host to hundreds of both homegrown and overseas movie productions.

This week, our very own expat film buff, Lee Adams, takes a look at how it isn’t all just phone boxes and beefeaters on film…

At the beginning of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull we see the hat before we see our hero.

With that hat playing a key supporting role in this Summer's Dial of Destiny, Lee Adams takes a look at some more of the most iconic costume items of clothing in 20th Century cinema history.

You would be surprised how many movies may have been filmed just around the corner from you.

Helpfully, the BBC’s fantastic film buff Ali Plumb has put together a short series highlighting some of them.

This summer, Barbie gets a big live-action movie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. In a year when a new Super Mario Bros adventure has left everything else in its wake at the box office, 2023 looks like the year of toys and games adaptations.

So, Lee Adams takes a look at some other movies, good and bad, that have found inspiration in playthings and family pastimes…

As Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny swings (or shuffles) into theatres, join Lee Adams for a look back at the incredibly popular adventure franchise so far.

Last week, he covered Raiders of the Lost Ark and Temple of Doom. Now it’s time for The Last Crusade and the Indiana Jones movie that should remain nameless… but is the fourth one all that bad?

After fifteen years, a fifth Indiana Jones film is (quite unbelievably) upon us. To celebrate the release of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Lee Adams takes a look back at over forty years of Indiana Jones.

This week, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

Enjoy!
