Halloween 2018: Horror we're not sure we could watch...

Image
The build up to 2018's Halloween sure is scary. We've put together all you need to know about the wicked somethings coming your way! Here are the latest nail-biting blockbusters. We've thrown in some television too. Don't leave your television on standby... *crackles Two of our fabulous performers here at The Lady Boys of Bangkok have already been to see this creepy film. Nat (who's now seen it twice) and Nikki saw in Newcastle...' The Nun '. They haven't been the same since (joke). It's part of The Conjuring universe and we KNOW it's a little bit terrifying.     To set the scene, a young nun commits suicide in a secluded Romanian Abbey. (Not a great start.) The Vatican orders a priest and a novitiate nun on the precipice of her vows to investigate the order's dark truths. Just to add into the mix, there's a demonic nun testing their faith, lives and souls!  The Nun You might be able to still catch this in cinem...

Halloween 2018: Family Films

HALLOWEEN is not long at all now! Here are a few spooky family films we can all enjoy! Let us take you through the decades with some of the most memorable movies. Have a quick peak at our top picks for family friendly Halloween films. Soon it will be time to hollow these. 80s The first in our 80's line up is a classic. Everyone knows and can sing the theme tune! "Don't. Cross. The streams. It would be bad."  Ghostbusters (1984)  Love or hate the 2016 remake. It's an iconic franchise. How do you NOT look after a Mogwai? Expose it to bright light, water and feed it after midnight. Gremlins (1984) They look just like a Furby. Probably less creepy. He's the ghost in black and white stripes. Don't call his name 3 times! Beetlejuice (1988) 'Day-O' 90s The 90s seems to be full of Christina Ricci. Hey we're not complaining. Her Wednesday Addams is spot on. She killed it.     The Addams...

A day at the circus

We had a new starter last week. So we thought, 'what better way to introduce somebody to Gandey World Class Productions than to send them to the Gandey's Circus'! It turned out that not only had he never been to one of our circuses before... he'd never been to any circus! Here are his thoughts: ---------------------------------------------------- I've never been to the circus before. Well, that's not strictly true. I don't remember ever going to the circus.  I'm told by my parents that they did take me once when I was about four years old, but my older brother didn't like the clowns - so we never went back. I have a hazy recollection of elephants performing in the ring (back when the the use of animals was commonplace), but I don't know if it's a real memory, or a false one picked up vicariously through television. So, when I was asked to visit Gandey's Circus in Aintree last Friday, as an introduction to m...
