WELCOME E verything old is new again. There’s a Bush running for President in the US and dinosaurs, Terminators and poltergeists at the movies. What year is it again? As Hollywood continues to recycle bankable franchises both old and new, rather than taking a punt on something daring and original, it’s television where you’ll find exciting risks being taken, like in new HBO series The Leftovers . This month is a big one for TV on DVD and October also means it’s Assassin’s Creed time again for gamers, and Halloween for horror fans. It’s also a massive month at the cinema with new films from Ridley Scott, Guillermo del Toro and Robert Zemeckis, not to mention the return of Australian filmmaker Justin Kurzel ( Snowtown ) with one of the best adaptations of Shakespeare’s Macbeth you’ll ever see on the screen. Kurzel is also at the helm of the upcoming Assassin’s Creed movie, which means we might finally see a fantastic video game to film adaptation in our lifetime.
