Rants & Raves
Inside the SFX hive mind
DARREN SCOTT EDITOR
RAVES
→ Absolutely love the chemistry between the Doctor and Ruby in “Space Babies”. That’s all you’re getting!
→ Couldn’t watch Dead Boy Detectives faster if I’d tried, a total box-ticker for me. Did you love Lockwood & Co? Then give this a go!
→ Chucky keeps getting weirder and wilder. The second half of season three is brilliant.
→ 40 Years Of Scream! is a gorgeous book. Hope they do a full collection of the summer specials next…
RANTS
→ Really wanted to love Them: The Scare, but three episodes in there’s a lot of police drama and not a lot of scares. Maybe it was singular.

RAVES
→ I’ve embarked on an X-Files rewatch. Loving it so far. How many series knock out a classic three episodes in? I might even make it through the post-Mulder seasons this time…
→ Looking forward to Black Mirror’s follow-up to “USS Callister”. I fondly remember visiting the set of the original episode and watching the cast do some textbook “reacting to explosions” acting!
→ Pleased to see The Search For Spock is getting a theatrical reissue for its 40th anniversary (from 14 June). A group outing might be in order.
→ Though I wasn’t wild about The Batman, the trailer for The Penguin has me intrigued. Still struggling to believe that’s Colin Farrell.
→ If Late Night With The Devil didn’t make it to a cinema near you, check it out on Shudder from 19 April. (You can always try the seven-day free trial.)
