Andrew Niccol

Since his début movie GATTACA (1997) warned over the use of advanced eugenics, writer and director Andrew Niccol has continued to question the human and moral implications of advancements in technology with movies including THE TRUMAN SHOW (1999 – as writer), SIMONE (1992) and IN TIME (2011). His latest is ANON, a remarkably timely SF noir thriller about a society where everyone’s point of view experience is recorded and anonymity is a dirty word. Clive Owen - a detective on the verge of a nervous breakdown if ever we’ve seen one - stars as Sal Friedland, on the trail of a mysterious stranger played by Amanda Seyfried who has found a way to opt out of this tyrannical system and use the power of her anonymity in a unique and profitable way…

Over the last few months in STARBURST, we’ve begun to dip a toe into the world of professional wrestling, particularly where it crosse s over into the genre television we all know and love. Other than a few m entions in issue 445’s piece on graps vampires, however, we’ve yet to scra tch the surface of actual wrestling storylines that wouldn’t look out of place between the opening and end credits of your favourite shows. That time is now.

STARBURST: Tell us about your fascination with Marty McFly and BTTF…  Shannon: I wasn’t fortunate enough to grow up with Back to the Future. I wasn’t even alive when the movie came out, I was born in 1990! I was going through a bit of a rough time, and my friends suggested that we all sit down and enjoy a movie together. After flipping through our options, one of my friends suggested Back to the Future. When I replied that I had never seen it, I was rightfully met with looks of horror, disbelief, bewilderment, and shame. And just like that, something clicked. Not a quiet sound, but a prominent echo that resonated in my very soul.

Your Worst Dream Come True

Even if you haven’t seen IT, or read the book by Stephen King, you’ll probably be familiar with its iconic titular villain. The shapeshifting terror who hunts kids, lives in the sewers, and prefers to take the form of Pennywise the Dancing Clown has fascinated readers since the book’s release in 1986. Though the novel was a huge success on release (many regard it as King’s finest), it was Tommy Lee Wallace’s 1990 two-part TV serial that seared IT into the horror canon, guaranteeing clown terror for decades to come...

In Space No One Can Hear You Roll

The ALIEN movie franchise has survived for so long due to the way it draws people in. The movies that everyone talks about are the ones that make you feel part of their world, and with Ridley Scott’s classic and its spin-offs, you can practically feel the monsters breathing down your neck. Obviously this is an experience that we’ve tried to emulate many times, and thus there are a great many games and board games that try to emulate the experience. Let’s take a look at a few.
