The highlight of last week for me was a Friday night visit to see the screening of a new film, written by a very good friend of mine Alan Wightman, which was shown at the Savoy Theatre in Monmouth.

The film, which is set in the 1980s, is fast becoming a bit of a cult horror movie, already listed in the “13 brilliant spooky movies to watch at Hallloween” on the sofemenine.co.uk website!

Based on a stagecoach full of travellers who become the hostages of two outlaws, everyone soon begins to realise that this is the least of their problems as terror lurks in the woods outside.

I actually jumped out of my seat at least twice during this film; there was popcorn everywhere!

The film is now out on DVD and the reviews that I have read to date are very impressive.

The budget was nowhere near that of the new Bond film, but I’m pleased to report that talks are already underway for another film and, if this happens, I’ll be first in line to get my ticket!
