A Cinematic Trio - Three Kings

There are many iconic trilogies for films. Star Wars, Lord of The Rings... The Cornetto Trilogy. But there are just as many flicks in cinema history where three characters in particular form a clear trinity within their narrative. So Des has challenged us as a trio of FUD's to pick out films that include A Cinematic Trio Caving to invisible and totally imagined peer pressure... Paul has continued the meta theme of films with "Three" in the title with Three Kings. In a shocking turn of events... Jack doesn't quite get the rules of engagement for war... is this his wildest score yet? As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.

Scary Non-Horrors - One Day

As a compromise to get a bit of a horror fix Jack has challenged his fellow FUDs with picking a scary non-horror! Des has picked our most left field choice which doesn't seem to have the immediate hallmarks of anything particularly scary... but this really gives us insight into what truly terrifies Des in life... all expressed in the film he calls a mirror to his relationship. One Day. As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.
