🎤 Rhyme or Die
Dir. Max r Lincoln

Shot in a nightclub temporarily closed due to lockdown, Rhyme or Die makes the most of its setting with low-key lighting and clever set design. It’s the collars and the FX work prompted by their explosive impact that steals the show though. The ominous glow of the high-tech neckwear lends them a threatening appearance, but it’s only after poor old soil analyst Harry fails at rhyming that we witness their gory power as things get a lot more bloody. - S/W Curator, Rob Munday
