Flickering Dreams Monthly Movie Roundup - January 2026 (Part 1)

The Flickering Dreams team have been back in the studio doing the first of a monthly series of podcasts rounding up the best (and the worst) films of the month! This time we review all of the major films released from Christmas Day through to the last week of January.

In this first part (of 2) we review and rate:

• The Housemaid
• Anaconda
• Marty Supreme
• Sentimental Value
• Song Sung Blue
• Hamnet
• 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple and
• The Voice of Hind Rajab

And we close with some truly impossible movie quiz questions from Rev. Andy Godfrey, which managed to stump us all: will you do better?

Watch out for Part 2 being released on the Flickering Dreams channel tomorrow!
