Introduction	I'm an aspiring writer who created 'This Week in Never Never Land' to provide a motivational tool to myself as well as somewhere to exorcise the reviewing and random commenting bug that occasionally rears its ill-expressed head without clogging up my livejournal. I'm an English Literature graduate with delusions of academia. My film-watching tendencies are towards horror. I have a particular fondness for Hammer horror and glossy nineties and early Millenium horror films, before horror had to be an exercise in mutilation.
