The first trailer for new animated anthology series Love, Death + Robots is a sensory overload of epic proportion, and I mean that in the best possible way.

Remember the '80s classic He-Man and the Masters of the Universe? It's getting (another) live action film and will be shot in Prague this summer.
It certainly wasn't the most exciting year ever in the soundtrack world, but 2018 was at least the year that musicians-turned-composers really got to shine. From Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and Arcade Fire's Colin Stetson, to Jóhann Jóhannsson's... Jóhann Jóhannsson and... Radiohead's Thom Yorke, here are my personal picks for soundtracks of the year. Keep in mind, this list only includes original film scores released in the year 2018. Scroll down for the Spotify playlist. Enjoy!
Godzilla, Gattaca and a medley of new films will screen in this year's diverse programme at the Future Gate Sci-fi Film Festival, one of Czech Republic's most enjoyable and entertaining film festivals.
I'm well aware that this list is coming a little late, but better late than never. As usual, this one covers my top picks for titles released in the Czech Republic during 2018, which also includes festival screenings and those released on streaming services like Netflix. So unfortunately, The Favourite is not here (it was just released and you should definitely go and see it) and Suspiria is not here either (if it was, then it would probably be close to the top). Nevertheless, there were some impressive films that popped up in our little country last year, and some of them we even saw before the rest of the world.
Velvet Buzzsaw is the most peculiar film I have seen so far this year. It feels dated, predictable, tacky and occasionally trashy. In hindsight though, maybe it wasn't trashy enough? It feels like a satire on the art community, albeit one that we've heard too many times before, but never actually plays up the horror enough to take into trash cinema territory.
The 15th Prague Short Film Festival is upon us again, and this year's diverse programme of films from all over the globe, both in and out of competition, is now up. From Ingmar Bergman to Amazonian women, and virtual reality to sex for beginners, there's a treat for everyone here.
