IMPERIAL BEDROOM MIGHTY LIKE A ROSE ALL DEMON Two ideas seem to connect these albums: production and fascism, emotional or otherwise.

French filtered disco goes ethnic

Mature and intriguing collection of clicks and cuts

Monkey man sends out mixed messages

Final offering from da bruddas past their gabba-gabba heyday

Affecting nu-folk debut from Liverpudlian Lin Sangster

Eleven short films about 9/11 from 11 directors, including Sean Penn and Ken Loach

Movie industry satire based on Tolstoy's The Death Of Ivan Ilyich

Hip hop's finest double-act, Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, pay loose, improvisational homage to the 1976 comedy classic Car Wash with this amiably inert tale of two roommates scheming, scamming and "busting suds" at the local LA 'wash. There's a kidnapping subplot, consistent casual misogyny, and cameos from Ludacris, Eminem and Tommy Chong. Overall, patchy, but not entirely pointless.

Wesley Snipes returns as Blade the Daywalker, scourge of vampires despite being half-vampire himself. This time he's recruited by the Vampire Nation to lead a crack assault team (including the wonderful Ron Perlman) against a new breed of bloodsucker that menaces vampires as well as humans. As stylish as the first flick, but not quite as much fun.
