Review of Scum (2014)

By Lee H (754) on 12 Jul 2011

Violent and uncompromising (especially at the time - 1979) movie that still packs a punch over 30 years later…

Review of Scum (2014)

By Jimmy M (566) on 15 Apr 2011

Winstone is bad ass as usual as the big daddy at a youth correctional facility but the film is sheer melodrama, lacking any real substance…

Review of Scum (2014)

By Aidan H (393) on 08 Sep 2010
