Last time at Chapter MovieMaker:
isolated incidents

This month's intro opened a darker-than-usual film programme, which began with a predatory take on Teddy Bear's Picnic from Marc Ap Anthony. Paul Scoble then screened Day of The Munchies, the unholy offspring of George A. Romero and Buster Keaton. Next came the first real contender for most unfortunate protagonist of the evening: Gabriel as played by Thaer Al-Shayei and directed by Pizzaman's James Robson, though the lead from Rachel Dax and Alun Paget's The Gatekeeper also proved eligible for that title. Tony Hurley treated us to a sneaky preview of Magpie and things started to look up - first with The Bank Loner from Catrin Doyle, then Superstar from arch fashionistas Ewan Jones Morris and Casey Raymond. The evening reached a delirious climax with Love Me Love My Dog, a handy comedy from Matt Mullins and MovieMaker's own Simon Howells.
