  • Whilst cinema academics may tell you that the French New Wave is an important part of modern movie history, Sam flings two fingers at the established theoreticians, and welcomes all manner of DTV rubbish into his home. As well as studying for a Film Degree and writing for scifi.co.uk, he enjoys spending time with his fiancé and their two year old son, and working his way through the pile of DVDs in the corner. Like any Film/TV writer, Sam also has script projects on the side – currently featuring Nazis, Superheroes, Experimental WWII Planes and Horror themes - that's one film.
