Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Of course, we all know The Wizard Of Oz is really about witches. As Sam Raimi’s prequel, Oz The Great And Powerful, is released, we run through the best witches in movie history. Be warned: they are certain to put a spell on you. Continue reading
There’s a film called Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters out this week. We’re big Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton fans here at Ross v Ross Towers, but this looks like a big dollop of crud. The story of Hansel & Gretel would work better as a slow-moving Michael Haneke piece, with a close-up of every bread crumb dropped in the forest.

There’s nothing quite like a nice, relaxing bath. Except in the movies, where bath time doesn’t mean a soak with a rubber ducky – it means scary monsters might try to get you. Sometimes. Here are some great scenes to think about the next time you take a dip. Continue reading
Yes, yes… I know what you’re thinking, ‘Didn’t you do this list last week?’ Well, almost. It was chess scenes last week, but some of our literally dozens of readers took a quick glance at the title and thought it said ‘cheese’ instead. A cheesy movie scene list was hence demanded. So here it is. Continue reading
Chess. It’s really boring, right? Wrong. Try telling that to Rutger Hauer, Jeff Goldblum, Humphrey Bogart and Ted bleedin’ Danson. Chess is flipping ace. Here’s why. Continue reading
