Those familiar with my ramblings here on the 5D website and the 5D YouTube channel will be fully aware of my love for Neil’s recent Sci-fi feature, the outstanding Rogue Warrior: Robot Fighter (2017). If you wish you can read my musings on the director and his film RIGHT HERE….
I’m still buzzing from the rather excellent Skype chat I had with director Tony Wash earlier this week. Tony talked about some of our movie inspirations as we realised we have a shared love of the horror master himself, John Carpenter. Tony and I proceeded to chat about his four feature…
