CINEMA NOCTURNA-THE UNDERBELLY OF FILM!!

About Me

Since leaving film school in 1996, I have been active in the industry in many small areas from editing, director, lighting and writing. So, when I finally got myself onto the world wide web, I decided that after networking and getting used to websites, I wanted to gear up from my own piece of the pie. That piece being the creation of Cinema Nocturna. After spending four years helping out on another webzine, I branched out. It was time to finally put the pieces together to build a webzine dedicated to the films I had a hard time resourcing. With the help of some very close friends around the world with the same passion as I, we built our little corner of the www, and let it grow. Of course it's still continuing to grow. So, if you have the interests in cinema that is beyond Hollywood I suggest you stop by and say hi! We cover films from gialli, polizia, horror, cult, exploitation and much more! CINEMA NOCTURNA-THE UNDERBELLY OF FILM!! !
If you'd like to have your film reviewed, we would love to review it for you! We specialize in the underbelly of film..films that would never make it on the Hollywood stage, but hey's that's a good thing. It's not tainted, it's raw and it's the real deal! Anything from Italian gialli, to Japanese Pinku..of course the all mighty indie as well! If you hurry, we'll get a review in for our massive double sized update coming December 23rd! Just send me a message or email us at [email protected] . We cover all types of media, DVDs/VHS/CD/Print and more!
When not working the regular dull job or on Cinema Nocturna, I have recently taken a long time interest to a whole new level, That being investigating the paranormal, especially ghosts. In the coming months I with a few others will be putting the pieces together for SOUTHERN ONTARIO PARANORMAL SOCIETY. Basically a hobby when premitted to research and share any finding into anything paranormal in the general area. I have been keeping together a blog to check track of our progress, though lately it's been lagging. Here's the link for those who might be interest!THE PARANOCTURNAL REPORTER !

My Interests

Cinema has always been a huge part of my life, may had it been through watching or working on them. It has been the dark corners, the harder, the more mysterious films that have always held a special place in my heart. The curiouslty of discovering something new. When Stanley Kubrick's A CLOCKWORK ORANGE first projected it's ultra-violent imagery to me. It had a profound effect on my viewing habits. This happened again when I first witnessed Dario Argento's SUSPIRIA. So, in short, what I searched for and found I give to you in return in the form of CInema Nocturna. A place in which we can all discover film's of this nature!

I'd like to meet:

Alain Delon, Art Bell,those funny fella's from Ghostly Talk. Dario Argento, Takashi Miike, Tomas Milian and the full original Goblin members minus Claudio who I have met already! Not to say I wouldn't mind meeting up again! Less we forget Dana Scully ur..I mean, Gillian Anderson!
