Send us a text

This week on Bloody Good Screen Movie Club, we're heading back to the 90s for two absolute cinematic juggernauts – Steven Spielberg's dino-sized blockbuster Jurassic Park and Quentin Tarantino’s genre-defining classic Pulp Fiction.

Join Mark, Taz, Niall, and Marcus as we dive into raptors, royale with cheese, and everything in between. From groundbreaking special effects to killer soundtracks and iconic dialogue, we’re breaking down what made these two films cultural landmarks—and why they still hold up today.
