What better company to view a whistle-stop tour of the structure of different genres of cinema than likable film critic Mark Kermode (ably script-assisted by his old friend and legitimate cult vampire Kim Newman)? These colourful jaunts through cinematic history aren't particularly definitive but act as a serviceable surface scratches or invocations for a deeper dive. A solidly authoritative and passionate series, always fascinating to watch and long may it continue.
