DVD: The Infinite Man
Australian director Hugh Sullivan’s sci-fi rom-com was generally regarded by local critics as a very interesting if flawed first feature. However, the film was nominated for Best Film, Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor (Alex Dimitriadis) by the Australian Film Critics Association. Meanwhile SXSW Film Festival (Austin, Texas) deemed it “Indie time travel mayhem at its best…the kind of movie you are going to want to watch time and time again. And time again...And time again... And time again...” Decide for yourself.

DVD: What We Do in the Shadows
Comically melding vampire folklore with life’s more mundane concerns, this engaging horror mockumentary from the director of Boy, Taika Waititi, and Flight of the Conchords’ Jemaine Clement charts the trials and tribulations of vampires in a New Zealand share-house. Squabbles over the washing-up are soon forgotten when 8000-year-old housemate Petyr accidentally brings a new vampire into the fold. It’s a heart-warming tale, despite all the blood that’s spilt.
